Slot Info

The original Big Bass Splash had a 5,000x max win ceiling. Big Bass Splash 1000 pushes that to 25,000x (five times higher), but the route there is different from what you might expect. Rather than simply inflating individual fish Money symbol values, Reel Kingdom actually lowered the per-fish cap from as high as 5,000x down to 1,000x and rebuilt the math around retrigger multipliers and accumulated collections instead. The name refers to the top fish value, not the overall cap. If that distinction sounds interesting, the demo is the place to understand how it plays out in practice.

Demo Features

Money Symbols & the Fisherman Wild

The fish symbols that appear on the reels are Money symbols. On every spin they take a random value from a fixed set: 2x, 5x, 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 50x, 100x, or 1000x total bet. During the free spins round, each Wild (the Fisherman) that lands collects the values of all Money symbols on screen at that moment. The Fisherman Wild only appears on all reels during free spins. In the base game it appears but pays only as a standard symbol, with a 2-of-a-kind win worth $0.50 at a $1 stake.

Triggering Free Spins

Landing 3, 4, or 5 Scatter symbols triggers 10, 15, or 20 free spins respectively. When only 2 Scatters land, two random effects can attempt to bring in the third. The first moves the existing Scatters one position down the reels if they can do so without leaving the reel area, triggering a respin on the other reels. The second pulls a random reel upward via a hook animation to reveal another Scatter. Neither is guaranteed, but both give the spin a second chance before resolving.

Pre-Bonus Modifiers

Before free spins begin, between 0 and 5 modifiers are randomly selected. Each applies to the upcoming round only. More Fish adds more fish Money symbols to the reel strips. More Fisherman adds more Wild symbols. More Dynamites, Hooks and Bazookas increases the frequency of the in-feature random events. Start From Level 2 skips the first multiplier tier. The +2 Spins modifier adds two spins to the starting total and to every retrigger during the round.

Free Spins Progression

Every Wild collected during free spins is tracked in a counter above the reels. Every 4th Wild collected retriggers the feature, adding 10 more free spins and advancing the multiplier for Money symbol collection. The multiplier levels are 1x at the start, 2x at the second level, 3x at the third, and 10x at the fourth. The retriggered spins play out after the current batch ends, and the multiplier applies to those additional spins. After the fourth level is reached, the feature cannot be retriggered again.

In-Feature Random Events

Three separate random effects can fire during free spins when the Fisherman and fish symbols are mismatched on a given spin. If Fisherman symbols are visible but no fish, the dynamite spin adds fish Money symbols in random positions. If fish are present but no Fisherman, a hook pulls a random reel up to bring Fisherman symbols into view. If Fisherman symbols are present but no fish, a bazooka can change all non-Fisherman symbols on screen to something else. The chance of all three events increases if the More Dynamites, Hooks and Bazookas modifier was awarded before the round.

Ante Bet & Buy Options

The Ante Bet sets the bet multiplier to 20x, increasing the chance of triggering free spins naturally by adding more Scatter symbols to the reel strips. When Ante Bet is active, the Buy Free Spins option is disabled. Alternatively, Buy Free Spins costs 100x total bet for standard free spins entry. Buy Super Free Spins costs 450x total bet and specifically increases the chance of Money symbols taking the 1000x value, the highest in the game’s fixed set. The RTP figures for each mode are close: 96.52% base, 96.53% Ante Bet, 96.53% Buy Free Spins, and 96.51% Buy Super Free Spins.

Yet Another Big Bass Title?

Big Bass Splash 1000 sits within a growing catalogue of Big Bass titles that all share the same fisherman-collects-fish core. For players familiar with the series, the most useful comparison is with the other 1000-branded entry, Big Bass Bonanza 1000.

The two games differ more than their shared branding suggests. Bonanza 1000 has a max win of 20,000x and no pre-bonus modifier phase. Free spins start immediately, and all the variation plays out inside the feature. Splash 1000 pushes the max win higher to 25,000x and adds the pre-bonus selection round, meaning rounds can begin with different profiles depending on which modifiers land. A round that opens with Start From Level 2 and More Fisherman is a very different proposition from one with no modifiers at all. That variability is the clearest design difference between the two titles, and it gives Splash 1000 a wider range of bonus outcomes even when the core collection loop is identical.

The other meaningful difference is in how the 1000x fish value is positioned. Both games carry it as the top Money symbol figure, but in Splash 1000 the Buy Super Free Spins option exists specifically to increase the probability of landing that value, giving a direct route to the mechanic the title is named for. Bonanza 1000 has no equivalent targeted buy option for the top fish value.

Frequently Asked Questions

The original Splash allowed individual fish to carry values as high as 5,000x. In this version the cap is 1,000x, but the overall max win rises from 5,000x to 25,000x. The math was restructured so that the large outcomes come from collecting many fish across multiple retrigger levels with escalating multipliers, rather than from a single high-value fish symbol.
No. Activating the Ante Bet disables the Buy Free Spins option entirely. The two features are mutually exclusive. Ante Bet is designed for players who want a higher natural trigger rate, while the buy options are for direct access to the bonus.
Each event has a specific target condition. Dynamite adds fish when the Fisherman is present but fish are not. The hook pulls up a reel for Fisherman symbols when fish are present but the Fisherman is not. The bazooka changes non-Fisherman symbols when the Fisherman is visible but no fish are. None of the three events guarantees a collection. They improve the conditions for one, but the final result still depends on what symbols are revealed.
No. The +2 Spins modifier adds two spins to the starting count and also adds two more spins to every retrigger that occurs during the round. A round that retriggers three times will receive six additional spins total from the modifier across the full session.
