Fish for Wins in Bigger Bass Blizzard – Christmas Catch Slot
When you think of Christmas, fishing and jet skies don’t immediately come to mind. In fact, you’d have to try pretty hard to make those things fit in with the festive season. And that’s probably why Pragmatic Play didn’t even really attempt to shoehorn a Christmas element into their newest fishing-themed slot. They just put Christmas in the name and figured it was good enough to get some festive season plays.
Grab your rod (no, not that one) and tackle box and go fishing in Bigger Bass Blizzard – Christmas Catch slot.
A frozen lake of wins
The thing about fishing is that you can’t just do it. You have to learn about the best method for catching a specific fish, discover what each piece of equipment does and how to put them together, and then how to cast and hopefully reel in a fish. So, let’s get the basics out of the way before you go fishing for wins.
In both the base game and during free spins, fish symbols with associated cash prize values will appear on the reels. If these symbols appear on the reels at the same time as a fisherman wild, the values of all the fish appearing on the reels will be awarded.
The appearance of three or more jumping trout scatter symbols will unlock a round of free spins. If you unlock it with three scatter symbols, you’ll be awarded 10 free spins. Four scatters will award 15 free spins and five 20 free spins. During a round of free spins, every fourth fisherman wild you collect will award an additional 10 free spins and increase a global multiplier up to a maximum of 10x.
If you’re not keen on waiting around for a fish to bite, you can select to purchase a round of free spins. Additionally, you can also select to increase the likelihood of scatter symbols appearing on the reels instead of outright purchasing a round of free spins.
Is Bigger Bass Blizard – Christmas Catch slot putting up a fight?
Bigger Bass Blizzard – Christmas Catch slot is weirdly similar to The Greatest Catch Bonus Buy. Both games have the same theme and the bonus features are carbon copies of one another. I am really not sure who “drew inspiration” from who but Bigger Bass Blizzard – Christmas Catch seems to have thought that some cold weather and a jet ski would help players distinguish the two. What does a jet ski have to do with fishing? I do not have a clue!
The slot has high volatility means you’ll be waiting longer than you’d like between wins. The 96.08% RTP and 4,000x max multiplier really don’t excite much either. The slot does offer a fairly large max win of €336,000, but you’ll have to be betting at €84 a spin to take a shot at those amounts.
If you’re looking for a few other Pragmatic Play adventures, I recommend Snakes & Ladders 2 – Snakes Eyes and Goblin Heist Powernudge a try.
