Game Overview
Have you ever seen that episode of The Simpsons where Marge finds that Chanel dress at a jumble sale and then proceeds to make dozens of alterations to it so that it appears slightly different? Well, if you have, then you’ll get where I’m coming from with Blueprint Gaming and their Fishin’ Frenzy franchise. It truly is a great game, but where will it ever end? The latest version to join the ever-growing portfolio is titled Fishin’ Frenzy The Big Splash, and it comes with 10 fixed paylines, an RTP of 95%, and a maximum win of 4,000x bet.
As you’re probably aware from previous releases of this slot, there is very little to get excited about in terms of base game modifiers. The bonus round, however, is a different story, and landing three or more scatters will trigger the free spins feature, where you’ll begin by choosing a fish that will award an upgrade for the bonus. During the feature, each Fisherman that lands will move you along the win meter, where additional prizes and further upgrades can be won. Last up, we have a bonus buy option, where instant access to the free spins can be granted at the cost of 100x the current bet.
Come on; you have to admit that you’re slightly intrigued to see what they have changed this time around to get another game out of this franchise. So why not kill that curiosity and try out the free demo slot of Fishin’ Frenzy The Big Splash. It’s available to play below.
Fishin’ Frenzy The Big Splash Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
Where do you begin with the amount of fishing-themed games currently out there to play on the market? It sure seems that during 2022/2023, every man and his dog has had a bash at developing a slot in this genre, and you do have to wonder how and if it will ever end. All that being said, you can’t really blame Blueprint Gaming too much, as at least they did start the craze years ago with their slot Fishin Frenzy and have since added many more titles to that franchise with Fishin Frenzy The Big Catch Megaways and Fishin Frenzy Power 4 being two of the more popular games released. So, how will The Big Splash shape up then in the grand scheme of things? I guess we had better find out, hadn’t we?
As always, let’s begin at the paytable, and starting with the highest value symbol, we have the seabird worth 200x bet for a five of a kind win. This is followed by the fishing rod worth 100x bet for all five, with the life ring and tacklebox both coming in at 50x the bet for a completed line of five. Finishing off the premium symbols, we have the fish, which will award 20x for any five on an active payline. The low pays comprise five royal symbols, with the Ace and King paying 10x bet for a full line and finally, the Queen, Jack and Ten paying 5x the bet for a five of a kind win. There is a wild symbol present in the game represented by the Fisherman. This can only appear in the free spins feature and will pay 200x bet for a complete line.
You’ll find a comprehensive selection of bet sizes available when clicking or tapping on the coin icon. The minimum price to play is just €0.10 spin, with the maximum standard stake on the game rising to €100. Impressively though, there are over 25 possible staking options to choose from. Good stuff, Blueprint.
Base Game & Modifiers
Fishin’ Frenzy The Big Splash is set over a reel format of 5×3 with a total of 10 fixed paylines in play during both the base game and free spins feature. For a win to be awarded, you’ll need a minimum of three matching symbols on an active payline starting from the leftmost reel first.
Fishin Frenzy The Big Splash Slot Bonus Features
There are bonus scatter symbols on each of the game’s five reels, and landing 3, 4, or 5 will trigger the main feature and award you 10, 15, or 20 free spins, respectively. Once activated and before the spins begin, you’ll be invited to choose from a section of fish which will give you an upgrade, such as more spins, extra Fisherman on the reels, standard symbols carrying a monetary value and more.
Free Spins
During the free spins, you are hoping for fish and any upgraded symbols that hold a monetary value to land on the reels simultaneously as a Fisherman. If this happens, all values will be collected by the Fisherman and added to your bonus total. Furthermore, each time he lands in view, you will progress one position along the meter above the reels, which can result in extra upgrades, more free spins, and bigger win multipliers.
Bonus Buy
If the bonus buy option is available in your jurisdiction, you can instantly access the free spins feature at the cost of 100x the current bet.
Pros
- Popular franchise among players.
- The new addition of 'pick a fish.'
Cons
- An overused theme now? Some players may already be bored of fishing-themed slots.
- RTP is only 95%.
- Maximum win of just 4,000x bet.
Final Thoughts
There are so many versions of Fishin' Frenzy out now that scoring them has become almost impossible. The game, as we all know, is lots of fun to play, but the variations don't really differ too much from each other, do they? Give this one a try anyway, and see what you think. Alternatively, if you want to try something bearing a very similar name, check out Big Bass Splash from Pragmatic Play.
