Graphics and Theme
The same stunning graphics and serene imagery adorns the Golden Lake slot machine, where you would be forgiven for reminiscing about days spent on the water with just the sounds of nature to take you in. If the graphics wasn’t enough to put you at ease, the lulling sound of waves lapping, fish splashing and even birds chirping away will only accentuate the peacefulness of the slot itself. Just like it’s predecessors, Big Bass Secrets of the Golden Lake will immerse you in the gameplay as if you were on the lake yourself.
Gameplay and Features
This 5 reel and 10 payline slot, is as easy to understand as you’d expect. Just like the original Big Bass, spin the reels to land straight-forward wins, or get lucky and hit three scatter symbols (Golden fish in this game), and enter the free spins round, plus, if you only hit two scatters on the reel in the main game, there is a chance the reels can spin again to land the third and trigger the bonus.
The standard free spins bonus plays out like the original series slot ones, but the special Golden Lakes free spins bonus goes one step further, in that it strips out all regular symbols, featuring just fish and fisherman. In both, the fishermen collect any fish and every 4th fisherman re-triggers 10 spins but with increasing multipliers to boot. Any spin that doesn’t yield a fisherman can also randomly find one added to the reels, delivering an even higher chance of winning big in the game.
Betting Options and Volatility
Big Bass Secrets of the Golden Lake Slot features bets from 10p up to £250 and offers an Ante-bet that costs 1.5x your stake and adds more Scatter symbols to the reels in the base game. With a default RTP of 96.07%, this high-volatility slot is one not to miss. In addition, you can buy into the main bonus round for 100x your bet, or the Golden Lake Free Spins round for a hefty 270x your bet.
Maximum Win Potential
The maximum win on the Big Bass Secrets slot is 5,000x your stake, although this is similar to many of the former Big Bass titles, so isn’t really a bragging point, but just a point of interest for those who want to give it a go.
Conclusion
With a dozen other versions to try, the Big Bass Secrets of the Golden Lake Slot does its’ best to be unique and offers a calming soundtrack to enjoy while you play. In truth, many of the same things exist as they did before, but the Golden Lake addition is a nice touch to try and carve something a bit different for players to enjoy. Whatever you choose, be assured that every Big Bass edition is enjoyable, eye-catching and, most importantly, an epic catch!
