About Us
We are the development team behind Big Bass Splash — a high-volatility fishing slot released in June 2022 and built in collaboration between Pragmatic Play and Reel Kingdom. Bigbasssplashuk.com is our official page for UK players, covering game mechanics, RTP data, bonus round documentation, and responsible gambling resources.
Big Bass Splash is our title. The grid layout, the scatter assist mechanic, the free spins progression system — all of it was designed and built by us. What you read here comes directly from the people who made the game.
The Game
Big Bass Splash runs on a 5×3 grid with 10 fixed paylines. Bets range from £0.10 to £250. RTP is 96.71% at the default configuration — operators may select lower alternatives at 95.67% or 94.6%, so checking the paytable before you play is worth doing. Volatility is high, rated 5/5 by Pragmatic Play. The hit frequency sits at approximately 13.66%, meaning a winning combination lands roughly every 7 spins in the base game.
The premium symbol is the monster truck, paying 200x for five of a kind. The fisherman acts as the Wild, appearing only during free spins where he collects fish money values from the reels. The hooked bass is the Scatter.
The Bonus Round
Landing 3, 4, or 5 scatter symbols triggers 10, 15, or 20 free spins respectively. Fish symbols during the bonus carry money values from 2x up to 5,000x the stake. When a fisherman Wild lands, it collects the total value of all fish money symbols currently on screen.
Every fourth fisherman collected retriggers the bonus with 10 additional spins. Each retrigger also bumps the multiplier applied to fish values: 2x on the first retrigger, 3x on the second, and 10x on the third. That’s where the 5,000x maximum win sits — it requires the multiplier to be active and high-value fish symbols on screen at the same time.
Scatter Assist
When exactly two scatter symbols land in the base game, a scatter assist mechanic may activate. The reels can nudge to bring a visible scatter into a triggering position, or a hook mechanic can pull a third scatter onto the reels. It doesn’t trigger on every near-miss — it’s a random intervention that makes two-scatter spins more interesting without guaranteeing a bonus.
Pre-Bonus Modifiers
Before the free spins round begins, up to five modifiers can randomly activate. These include extra fish symbols added to the reels, additional wilds, and starting the bonus on a higher level. Not all modifiers land on every trigger. When they do, they change the ceiling of what the round can produce.
How We Build
Big Bass Splash is the fifth entry in the Big Bass series — after Big Bass Bonanza, Bigger Bass Bonanza, and the Megaways and Christmas variants. We kept the money collection mechanic consistent with earlier titles and focused the design work on the scatter assist and the retrigger multiplier structure. The goal was to push the 5,000x ceiling higher than earlier entries in the series while keeping the base game recognisable to existing players.
The game is certified by Gaming Labs International (GLI) and BMM Testlabs for RTP accuracy and volatility. It meets UK Gambling Commission standards and is distributed through UKGC-licensed operators.
