ABOUT
Grab your tackle box and cast your line, because Pragmatic Play - alongside their long-time fishing buddies Reel Kingdom - is reeling players back into the shallows with Big Bass Splash 1000, the turbo-charged follow-up to the already iconic Splash release. While the series has churned out enough sequels to fill an aquarium, this one hooks attention where it matters: massive 25,000x win potential and a familiar, vibrant underwater world where sunlight dances over darting fish and upbeat tunes ripple through the reels.
It might not overhaul the visuals or reinvent the hook-and-catch formula, but Big Bass Splash 1000 offers that unmistakable Big Bass charm - sunny, energetic, and always ready to snag a surprise catch. When it comes to the top fishing slots out there, we’ve definitely got a new contender on our hands!
Betting Options and Bonus Features
The game sticks to the classic 5×3 layout with 10 paylines, but the numbers lurking beneath the surface are where things get exciting. Although the RTP clocks in at 96.52% - slightly below its predecessor - the high volatility makes every spin feel like you’re fishing for a shark with a shoestring. The max win skyrockets to 25,000x, a huge leap from the original Splash, making each cast a potentially legendary haul.
Activate the Ante Bet, and your stake doubles in exchange for a boosted chance of hooking scatters, handy when chasing the main catch of the game: Free Spins.
Landing 3, 4, or 5 scatters awards 10, 15, or 20 free spins, respectively. Before the round kicks off, you’re randomly dealt 0–5 modifiers, each capable of tilting the tides in your favor. These include bigger fish populations, more fisherman wilds, increased dynamite/hook/bazooka activations, a level-2 head start, or an extra +2 free spins boost that also enhances every retrigger.
During Free Spins, the fisherman wild collects all visible money-carrying fish. Snag four fishermen, and you retrigger the feature, gaining +10 spins and leveling up the multiplier: 2x, 3x, and finally 10x on the fourth tier. After hitting that lofty x10 level, retriggers bow out - but by then, you’re deep-sea hunting for enormous hauls.
The signature random features resurface as well:
• Dynamite blows fish onto the reels when none appear.
• Hook drags the fisherman into view when fish are present but he’s missing in action.
• Bazooka reshuffles the board when fishermen appear without any fish to catch.
Players can also Buy Free Spins for 100x, or opt for Super Free Spins at 450x, which significantly increases the chance of landing fish worth up to 1,000x each. Oddly, despite the “1000” branding, fish caps actually drop from earlier versions, but the game compensates through its enormous overall win ceiling.
Roshtein’s Take
Big Bass Splash 1000 is the kind of fishing trip where you don’t just bring a rod, you bring a harpoon. This game cranks the win potential to cosmic levels, and when that 10x fisherman starts scooping up chunky 1,000x fish, the slot turns into a full-blown feeding frenzy. Sure, it's familiar, but they definitely strapped a rocket engine to it.
If you’re chasing monster multipliers, love the classic Big Bass charm, and don’t mind navigating some stormy volatility, then this one is absolutely worth casting into. One lucky spin and you might just pull up a catch big enough to break the scale!
