Big Bass Day at the Races

Intro

Hold your horses and grab your tackle box Wombat Spinners—it’s time to hit the track and the water all at once!

The Big Bass Return to the Races slot by Reel Kingdom and Pragmatic Play is the latest ripper addition to the Big Bass series, blending the excitement of horse racing with the laid-back vibes of a fishing trip.

If that sounds bonkers to you, well, you’re not wrong, mate! But this slot proves that sometimes, the wildest ideas make for the best rides. So, let’s saddle up and see what this game has to offer.

Do you know what my fave thing is about this slot? The sound track! So cool. A funky bluegrass number in the background, horses snorting and galloping, it’s got it all.

5 Key Points

– Game Layout: 5 reels, 3 rows, and 10 fixed paylines—straight as a stock whip.
– Volatility: High. So strap yourself in Bruce and Sheila, it’s gonna be a bumpy ride.
– Maximum Win: Up to 10,000x your bet. Pretty close to the Melbourne Cup jackpot, not too shabby.
– Big Bet Range catering to battlers and high rollers alike.

Graphics – The Look

This slot is as bright as a sunny arvo at the racetrack, with a colourful backdrop of lush green fields and a blue sky that’d make any fisherman crack open a cold one.

The symbols are a mixed bag—horses, binoculars, pints of beer, tackle boxes, and champagne buckets. It’s like they threw a fishing trip and a day at the races into a blender and hit ‘turbo.’

The visual design is crisp, and the animations bring just enough movement to keep things interesting. If you reckon slots need to look fancy to be fun, this one’s got you covered.

Some Background to Reel Kingdom Games

Reel Kingdom and Pragmatic Play have been churning out Big Bass slots faster than a kangaroo chasing a Greyhound Bus. They’re known for adding fresh spins to classic fishing themes, and this time, they’ve decided to chuck a few racehorses into the mix.

It’s a bit like putting pineapple on a meat pie—unexpected, but hey, who’d have guessed that it would taste so good?

Gameplay

The setup is as familiar as your favourite fishing spot—5 reels, 3 rows, and 10 paylines. You win by landing three or more matching symbols from left to right.

The fisherman wild helps you out during free spins, replacing other symbols to form winning combos. The low-paying cards are here (as always), while the high-paying icons—horses, pints, tackle boxes—bring in the bigger wins. It’s simple, but with enough quirks to keep you coming back for another crack.

Bonus Features

Money Symbol
The horse symbols can land with random cash values up to 1,000x your bet. But hold your horses! These aren’t collected in the base game—only in the free spins round. Bit of a tease, eh?

Free Spin
3 or more scatters triggers 10 free spins.

Did you miss the posts and land two scatters? No worries—there’s a random feature that might chuck in a third one for you.

Before the free spins kick off, you pick from 12 mystery cards to determine which modifiers are live in the free spins round.

One or two modifiers are revealed before the action kicks off if you trigger the bonus round with 4 or 5 scatters. Modifiers include:

– Extra Free Spins – up to six more.
– Fixed Horse – up to 3 money symbols per spin.
– Man Wilds – up to 3 wilds are collected in the multiplier and extra spins trail from starter’s orders.
– Remove the Nag – whip out the 0.2x money symbol first, and the 0.5x money symbol the second time.

“Man Wilds” collect the cash prize symbols as usual, and the Man Wild is scopped up in the multiplier and extra spins trail above the grid.

Every fourth man wild triggers ten more free spins and boosts the cash multiplier. The multiplier inflates to x2 at first, and x3, x10, x20, x30, x40, x50 for the next seven triggers. Bonza!

Random Features

Wild Without Money Symbols
If wilds land solo, the game might randomly throw in money symbols.

Money Symbols Without Wilds
The lasso feature can yank a wild onto the reels. Fair dinkum.

Curtain Feature
If wilds land with no money symbols, a curtain drops to switch up the symbols for potential wins.

It’s all about keeping you on your toes—just like a real race day.

Summary

Big Bass Return to the Races is one heck of a weird mash-up, but somehow, it works. Whether you’re a fishing fan, a racing enthusiast, or just someone looking for a slot with solid bonus features and big win potential, this game has something for you.

The high volatility might test your patience, but when those wilds and multipliers kick in, you’ll be grinning like a croc in the sun. So, what are you waiting for?

Chuck a few spins on and see if you can land a whopper! Ready to hit the track and reel in some wins? Giddy up and get spinning!

Wombat Score: 4.7/5

Yeah. Not bad.
