PRAGMATIC PLAY REELS IN MORE FEATURES WITH BIG BASS HOLD & SPINNER™
Pragmatic Play, a leading content provider to the iGaming industry, takes to the lake to net more fish-themed bonuses as it adds to much adored franchise with Big Bass Hold & Spinner™.
The latest instalment to the popular series introduces a new mechanic whilst maintaining core concepts that made Pragmatic Play’s original Big Bass Bonanza™ slot so iconic.
Played across 5×3 reels, Big Bass Hold & Spinner™ reopens its tackle box to reveal familiar symbols alongside a laid-back atmosphere set by an upbeat soundtrack as the franchise’s friendly fisherman returns to guide players through big wins.
Landing three, four or five scatter symbols reels in 10, 15 or 20 free spins respectively. During the free spins, a wild collect symbol is added to the reels. This fisherman symbol will collect the instant cash prize attached to all Fish Money icons in view, though if none are present, a bazooka feature will hit the waters to randomly add fish symbols to the reels. At least four of these fishermen are required to award a retrigger and an incrementally increasing multiplier.
The game’s Hold & Spinner bonus is triggered by landing three coins in the base game. During the bonus, all symbols are removed from the reels except the coins that initially granted access to the bonus. Four respins are awarded and retriggered each time an extra coin is landed in the bonus with all values being collected. Diamonds can also be landed which hold a higher instant cash value.
Big Bass Hold & Spinner™ is the latest title to integrate an upgrade to an existing fan favourite franchise from Pragmatic Play’s vast portfolio, which include big hitters such as The Dog House Multihold™, Wild Wild Riches Megaways™ and Snake & Ladders 2 – Snake Eyes™.
Irina Cornides, Chief Operating Officer at Pragmatic Play, said: “Big Bass Hold & Spinner™ evolves Pragmatic Play’s much loved Big Bass franchise by incorporating new mechanics and possibilities that will allow the series to remain as prominent and popular as ever. We’ve integrated retriggers, fisherman wilds and multipliers with a thrilling new bonus feature that enables big values to be hit, as well as a max win of 10,000x – one of the biggest in the series – to make sure the latest instalment to our Big Bass Bonanza line-up is another player favourite.”

13 gambling company executives in appeal against ATG’s proposal to raise gambling tax in Sweden
BOS – The Swedish Trade Association for Online Gambling – is today submitting a letter to the government. The letter is signed by 13 gambling company executives and BOS’s secretary general. In the letter, the signatories urge the government not to support the gambling company ATG in their proposal to raise the general gambling tax in favour of a reduction in the tax on horse racing.
As a main argument, the signatories highlight the fact that the level of the gambling tax affects the proportion of consumers who choose to gamble on the legal licensed gambling market, and that too many consumers are already opting out of the safety of the licensed market with its extensive consumer protection.
“Horse betting has a channelisation rate of between 98-99 percent. Online casino, according to the most optimistic estimates, has a channelisation rate of between 72-82 percent. The higher the tax, the greater the risk that the consumer will choose unlicensed gambling, where neither gambling tax nor consumer protection exists. To then lower the gambling tax for horse betting, which already has a very strong channelisation, and raise it for online casino, which has a very weak channelisation, would be completely incomprehensible. At least for those who prioritize consumer protection,” says BOS Secretary General Gustaf Hoffstedt.
