Big Bass Halloween Slot Machine

Big Bass Halloween Game Details

This is one of the designer’s slots that tries to capitalise on the Halloween market, but it is a little wide of the mark. It is a fishing-themed slot with a rather scary skipper who wields a hook to land fish. It is an interesting idea but does not quite come off. Not that it will send shivers down your spine but it’s spooky, though not actually spooky, like usual slot spooky. The scene is also accompanied by the phrase 'Something wicked this way swims!', a reference players familiar with Ray Bradbury’s craft should understand.

The slot’s symbols, each thoughtfully designed to fit the eerie theme, come with varying values. The low-paying symbols, represented by stitched 10 to A royals, offer modest returns. In contrast, the higher-paying symbols like fish, tackle boxes, crows, hooks, and life rings can deliver heftier payouts. 

Another special symbol that has its role during the free spins is the fisherman, which is Wild. It basically substitutes for any other regular symbols in winning combinations, but once it lands along with fish, that’s where the Big Bass magic unfolds.

When a Fisherman Wild appears alongside one or more Fish symbols, the monetary values indicated on the Fish are gathered and paid out to the player. If multiple Fishermen appear, their cash rewards are collected independently.

Furthermore, these Fisherman Wilds are accumulated during the Big Bass Halloween free spins and are stored in a dedicated metre above the reels. Each Fisherman gathered advances you one step on a progression trail, and every four steps achieved result in an upgrade to the next stage of the feature.

As you progress through these levels, you will also receive an additional set of 10 free spins. When you initially trigger the feature, the Fisherman's Collect Multiplier is set at 2x, followed by an increase to 3x upon the subsequent trigger. Finally, for the third and final trigger, the multiplier reaches an impressive 10x.

There's a Dynamite modifier that can unexpectedly appear during free spins. If you happen to see just one fisherman Wild on the screen without any Fish symbols, once the spin is over, a random number of Fish symbols could be introduced onto the reels.

Big Bass Halloween is a classic fishing slot from Pragmatic Play, but this time it’s wrapped in a dark suspenseful artwork. Just like other games in this franchise, it’s built around the money symbols that pay when a fisherman is around.
