Big Bass Amazon Xtreme Slot by Pragmatic Play

The Big Bass series heads to the Amazon with a twist - before free spins begin, players pick six game-altering mechanics from a selection menu. Choices include adding extra fish symbols to the reels, placing more fishermen on the grid, starting at multiplier level two instead of one, and other modifiers that shape how the entire bonus round plays out.

Three scatters trigger 10 free spins. Fish symbols land carrying cash values between 1x and 500x bet. When a fisherman wild catches a fish on the same reel, it collects the fish value. Catching enough fish levels up the fisherman, boosting the collection multiplier - level one is 1x, level two is 2x, and it keeps climbing. The six pre-round choices directly affect how fast this progression happens and how many fish appear.

The base game runs on 10 paylines with an ante bet option that increases the wager by 50% for doubled scatter frequency. Fish symbols with instant values appear in both base and bonus, and the Hold and Spin mechanic triggers from money symbol landings for a separate collection round outside of free spins.

The fisherman sits in his canoe above the reels, the backdrop splits between dense tropical canopy and murky underwater - toucans, backpacks, and fishing tackle serve as symbols alongside the standard card ranks. Buy bonus costs 100x bet for direct entry to the picker screen.
