Big Bass Hold & Spinner Megaways Demo (Pragmatic Play)
147,456 ways, two bonus rounds and a free spins multiplier with no top end. Big Bass Hold & Spinner Megaways takes the fisherman collect onto a six-reel grid with tumbles, adds a separate coin respin game, and puts the whole slot under a 20,000x cap. The ladder is the number that matters, because after 10x it keeps climbing by another 10x on every retrigger.
Slot Bonus Features
Locked and Unlocked Rows
Reels 1 and 6 show up to six symbols. Reels 2 to 5 have three extra rows on top, and those rows spin right to left while the game locks or unlocks each one at random, with only unlocked symbols counting. The top row holds nothing but landing-net Wilds and blanks, which is the only place the Wild can appear.
Tumbles and Mystery Lanterns
Winning symbols vanish and new ones fall in until no new win forms. Lanterns are Mystery symbols that all turn into the same paying symbol in regular play.
Free Spins With No Last Level
Three to six scatters award 10, 15, 20 or 25 free spins. The fisherman appears on every reel except the top row and collects every fish on screen, and fish don’t explode in this round but drop to the bottom as tumbles happen. Every 4th fisherman adds 10 spins and moves the multiplier to x2, x3 and x10, then adds another x10 for every retrigger after that, without any limit.
The Coin Hold & Spin
Three or more coin money symbols start a separate respin round on a grid the same size as the triggering spin. Coins hold, new coins reset the 3 respins, and a diamond can land worth 50x to 2,000x. The round guarantees at least 20x the bet, adding 3 more respins if it’s short when they run out. It’s a big step from the lighter, five-reel Big Bass Hold & Spinner, and the Megaways version keeps the Big Bass collect as its free spins.
How to Play
Reading the Megaways Counter
The counter above the grid shows the number of ways in play, and it changes with the row counts and with which of the top rows are unlocked. Wins count from the leftmost reel through each reel next to it, and each way pays its highest combination. Buying skips the main game; 100x starts free spins with 3 to 6 scatters, and 120x starts Hold & Spin with 3 to 6 coins.
RTP
Both buys run at the same 96.70% RTP as regular play. There’s no ante bet in this game.
Big Bass Hold & Spinner Megaways Paytable
Values are for six of a kind down to the minimum match. Only the float pays for two, and the fish pays the same as A and K.

Ultimate Slots Verdict
Big Bass Hold & Spinner Megaways is the series at its most open-ended: a free spins multiplier that adds 10x per retrigger without limit, a coin Hold & Spin with a 20x guarantee, and a 20,000x cap over both. It takes time to learn, and it rewards the effort.

Detailed Review
Final Thoughts
The free spins ladder is what makes this one different from its siblings. In Bigger Bass Bonanza, the multiplier stops at 10x after the third retrigger. Here, every retrigger past that adds another 10x, so a long round keeps getting stronger instead of stopping, and the 20,000x cap is what ends it.
That’s the case for the game, and the other parts of the design back it up. Tumbles keep fish on the board in free spins, where they fall instead of exploding, and the Hold & Spin is a second, separate route with a guaranteed 20x floor and diamonds of up to 2,000x. The 120x buy for it is close to the 100x free spins buy, which makes the choice between them about which round you prefer rather than price.
The cost is complexity. Locked rows, a Wild that only lands on the top row, Mystery lanterns that behave one way in the main game and another in free spins, and two coin types make it a lot to learn, and the main game pays little outside the features. Our review score rewards the depth, and playing it free is the quickest way to learn it.
