Learn how Big Bass Splash plays before you bet

Choose this game if you enjoy fishing and ocean scenes. It runs on a 5x3 grid with 10 fixed paylines, and wins pay from the leftmost reel to the right. A win needs at least 2 matching symbols on a payline. Symbols include a red off-road truck, a dragonfly and the card symbols from A down to 10.

Pick it over a plain reel game when free spins with a collection mechanic appeal to you. In the free spins, Fisherman WILD symbols appear on all reels and collect the money values shown on fish symbols. Every fourth collected WILD adds 10 free spins and raises the collection multiplier, up to level 4. Two Scatters in the base game can trigger near-miss teasers.

Play guide

From the bet you choose to the last reel

S99 Casino lays out each step before your first spin, so you can follow the round without guessing.

  1. A$0.10 start, A$250 ceiling

    Choose a bet from A$0.10 up to A$250 before your first spin. The total bet sets the base for MONEY values in Free Spins, so check it each time.

  2. Two symbols can already pay

    Check the 10 fixed paylines for matching symbols that start on the leftmost reel. A line pays from left to right with as few as 2 matching symbols.

  3. When a pair of SCATTER lands

    Spot the moment exactly 2 SCATTER symbols land. Scatter reels drop one position while others respin, or a hook pulls a reel up to reveal another SCATTER.

  4. Base game, then Fisherman

    Watch the Fisherman WILD on every reel once Free Spins begin. It collects the MONEY values shown on fish symbols, and every fourth collected WILD retriggers 10 more Free Spins.

  5. What if the session runs long?

    Set your limit before the first spin, and stop when you reach it. If play stops feeling fun, call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858.

Feature guide

Big Bass Splash bonus rounds, step by step

After this section you will know how each bonus starts and what you collect.

Fish money and retrigger levels

Free Spins begin from the base game, with the WILD (Fisherman) on all reels. Each WILD collects a random MONEY value of 2x-5000x total bet, shown on fish symbols. Every 4th WILD collected retriggers +10 Free Spins and raises the multiplier to x2, x3 then x10, the last level.

Base gameMoney collection

Before and after two SCATTER

The base game runs on 5 reels x 3 rows with 10 fixed paylines, and wins pay left to right. With exactly 2 SCATTER landed, a random respin-down moves the scatter reels one position down while the others respin, or a hook reveals another SCATTER.

Big Bass Splash hides its bonus timing

Before you pick a bet and start a session, know that the bonus round of Big Bass Splash comes on no fixed schedule. No figure on this page shows when it lands, and nobody can say in advance how many spins it takes. The result of one session is random, whatever the RTP of the version you play.

Choosing a session starts with knowing which RTP version runs on your screen, and only the game rules show that. The versions table lists each option, yet the game rules are where the live one is named. Read them before the first spin, not after the last.

Deciding how much to stake makes the top prize worth a closer look. The maximum win of Big Bass Splash is x5,000 the bet, a ceiling that a session reaches rarely. Treat it as the upper edge of the game, not the usual result, and size each bet to what you can afford to lose.

Big Bass Splash questions

Still deciding if this is for you

Here at S99 Casino, we show every cost before you spend a single cent.

What is the maximum win on Big Bass Splash in Australia?

Pick your bet first, because the maximum win is x5,000 of that stake. At the example bet of A$0.50, the top is A$2,500. Higher bets raise the cash ceiling in the same proportion, up to the A$250 bet limit.

How does Big Bass Splash 1000 differ from Big Bass Splash?

Choose by what matters to you, because the versions differ in ceiling and return. Big Bass Splash 1000 raises the maximum win to x25,000, while the other series versions stop at x5,000. Its RTP of 96.52 sits slightly above the 96.50 to 96.51 range of its siblings.

How much is the Big Bass Splash bonus buy in Australia?

Start with the bet, since the price follows it. The Free Spins buy is listed at A$50 at the A$0.50 example bet, which is 100 times that stake. Buying skips the wait for the feature, but the price is paid in full and the result stays random.

How volatile is Big Bass Splash, and what does high mean?

Decide first how long a dry run you can accept, since high volatility means wins come less often. Its volatility is high, so the larger wins arrive unevenly across play. No one can know in advance when the next big win or the bonus will land.
