Big Bass Christmas Bash Slot Review

Big Bass Christmas Bash Slot Overview

Big Bass Christmas Bash is a new casino slot from Reel Kingdom and game number 4 million in this series.

Is that even an exaggeration? It’s getting bizarre at this point. Reel Kingdom is now past two digits in the Big Bass saga, and there seems to be no stopping them. But it’s certainly not exclusive for Reel Kingdom. Pretty much all providers have had a swing at it, and often more than once. The only conclusion we can make of that is that people love the core mechanic of these games. So even though we’re not over the moon about another one, we will, of course, do our due diligence and see what our favorite fisherman is up to this time. Let’s dig in!

Big Bass Christmas Bash is a video slot from Reel Kingdom with a classic setup of 5 reels, 3 rows, and 10 paylines. Players can choose between making a Min.bet of 0.1 and a Max.bet of 100. The game has a default RTP of 96.71%, but there are versions with lower than that, so be on the lookout. Your chances of creating a win of 1000X and above are on average 1 in 48,638 spins, and a Big Bass Christmas Bash max win of 5000X is 1 in 1,748,252 spins. The game is played at high volatility and can net you a max win of 5000x the bet.

The fisherman has brought all his standard mechanics, specifically from Big Bass Splash. The features are Scatter Symbol, Free Spins, Extra Bet, and Bonus Buy. 

Big Bass Christmas Bash Slot Information

The game features a Christmas theme, making it the 3rd Christmas game in the series. Bigger Bass Blizzard Christmas Catch and Christmas Big Bass Bonanza came before it, but we’ll give credit where credit’s due and say that this is the best-looking of the bunch. Although the saga feels a bit stagnant mechanically, the graphics are improving.

Big Bass Christmas Bash can be played on all common mobile devices and desktops. A winning combination is created by landing 3 or more matching symbols on consecutive reels within the game’s lines, starting from the leftmost reel.

The lower-paying symbols consist of 10, J, Q, K, and A. A full line of 5 with one of these pays 5x-10x the bet. The higher-paying symbols include fish, toolbox, dragonfly, fishing pole, and Santa. Five-of-a-kind with these pays 20x-200x the bet. A bass acts as the Scatter symbol, which is used to trigger the Free Spins feature.

Before the bonus starts, 0 to 5 modifiers that apply to the Free Spins are randomly selected:

Big Bass Christmas Bash Slot Conclusion

What is there to say? This game is literally Big Bass Splash, but with a new costume. To be fair, Big Bass Splash seems to be the most popular game in the series. It’s fairly easy to bonus, and the mini-game before the bonus where you get your picks is fun. 

According to Pragmatic, this one has a Free Spins Frequency of 1 in 63, implying that, on average, you’ll get the bonus once every 63rd spin. That is with the extra bet active, but regardless, it’s great numbers. Getting insane hits on a Big Bass game is not very common, but if you’re getting the bonuses frequently, it can still be a lot of fun.

We expect this to be a popular release just like all Bass games, but the fact remains that this is another re-skin, so it won’t be high on the innovation-scale when we rate it.

Big Bass Christmas Bash by Reel Kingdom is this years Christmas version of this popular saga.
