Big Bass Secrets of The Golden Lake Bonus Features
This slot offers some thrilling bonus features. The money symbols can carry rewarding multipliers, and there are regular free spins and Golden Lake free spins. Here’s how to trigger the special features:
Money Symbol
The fish symbols in the Big Bass slot series are money symbols. On every spin, the symbols are assigned random cash values. The values can be won during the free spins round. The cash values are: 2x, 5x, 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 50x, 100x, 200x, 500x, 1666x, 2,500x, or 5,000x.
Free Spins
The free spins feature is triggered if three or more scatter symbols land anywhere on the reels. If more than three scatter symbols land, you will be awarded a larger number of free spins, as follows:
- Three scatter symbols award 10 free spins
- Four scatter symbols award 15 free spins
- Five scatter symbols award 20 free spins
During the base game, if only two scatter symbols land, a random feature can bring more scatter symbols onto the reels. The two scatter symbols already on the reels will move one position down, and then the reels without scatter symbols will re-spin. Also, one more scatter symbol can appear on the reels in a random position after the initial spin.
Before the free spins round starts, you’ll be asked to pick a card from 12 cards. The card you choose will reveal the type of free spins you’ll be awarded. You’ll be awarded a regular free spins round if the card is a bonus. However, if a Secrets of The Golden Lake card is revealed, the Golden Lake Free Spins feature will be triggered.
Regular Free Spins
During the regular free spins round, the fisherman wild symbol collects the value of the money symbols on the reels. The fisherman wild symbols are also collected on a progress bar.
The progress bar has four levels. You will move to the next level when you collect four fisherman wild symbols. At each level, you receive ten free spins and a multiplier:
- Level 2 = 2x multiplier
- Level 3 = 3x multiplier
- Level 4 = 10x multiplier
The feature can’t be retriggered after level four.
Golden Lake Free Spins
If you proceed to the Golden Lake Free Spins, all the regular symbols will disappear, leaving an empty grid. The only symbols that can now appear are money symbols, fisherman Wild symbols and blank positions.
At the beginning of the run, you’re awarded ten free spins. After every spin, all winning combinations with money symbols are paid and if the fishermen wild symbols land, they collect all the values of the money symbols.
The fisherman wild symbols are collected in the same way as regular wilds on the progress bar. The feature can’t be retriggered after reaching level four.
During either type of free spins, several random features can trigger, such as random money symbols appearing and fisherman wild symbols being pulled onto the reels.
