Pick this slot if you want an ocean and fishing theme on a 5x3 grid. Ten fixed paylines run across the reels, and symbols pay from left to right. A win starts with two matching symbols on a payline. MONEY symbols can land on the reels in the base game, but they only count once Free Spins start.
Go for this title if you want a bonus that keeps adding up. Three, four or five SCATTER symbols anywhere start Free Spins. FISHERMAN WILD lands on all five reels only in Free Spins and collects every MONEY symbol on screen. Each fourth collected WILD adds 10 spins with a rising multiplier, and a Pick a Card choice comes before each round.
Screen tour
A common worry is missing a bonus on an unfamiliar screen, so these frames show it.
Grab Extra Spins
This block settles how free spins start, what each mode does, and what the buy costs.
Land three, four or five SCATTER symbols anywhere to get 10, 15 or 20 spins. FISHERMAN WILD appears only here, on all five reels, and collects the value of each MONEY symbol it lands on. Every 4th collected WILD retriggers 10 more spins, with a higher multiplier.
Base gameFree spins round
Pick one of 12 face-down cards before every Free Spins round, natural or bought. The cards reveal regular Free Spins, MORE FISH, HIGHER MULTIPLIERS, 3 FISHERMAN TO RETRIGGER or MEGA, which combines all three modifiers. The guaranteed MEGA buy skips this pick.
Before the roundChosen modifier
Set Ante Bet to 16x or 25x, or buy the Repeat Chance, to unlock Reel Repeat. At the end of a Free Spins round, a chrome wheel decides whether the round restarts from the beginning with the same initial spin count and modifier odds. Wins so far are kept.
End of roundRestarted round
Pay 100x your bet to start a Free Spins round at once: A$500 at the A$5 example bet. Ante Bet at 15x or 25x disables this purchase option. Pick a Card still comes first, except on the MEGA buy.

Round walkthrough
King Betting walks through each step in order, so you know the round before staking.
Pick a bet between A$0.10 and A$500, such as A$0.20 or A$5. Each spin then plays across 10 fixed paylines on a 5x3 grid.
Scan each payline from the left reel to the right. Two matching symbols in a row can already pay, and the paytable shows the amount for each count.
Watch for MONEY symbols on the reels. They can land during the base game, but they only collect during Free Spins.
Land three, four or five SCATTER symbols anywhere to start Free Spins with 10, 15 or 20 spins. Then pick one of 12 face-down cards before the round begins.
Decide your stop point before the first spin, because no round can tell you when to end the session. Keep the bet at a level you can afford to lose.
Practise with no stakes
The worry most players bring is whether a practice round will drain their balance.
Use the demo to learn the rounds with no money at stake, since it pays nothing. Real play needs a King Betting account and you must be 18+.
Play for realDeciding how long to play Big Bass Reel Repeat means choosing without any way to predict the bonus. Nobody can know in advance how often the bonus round comes. The result of one session is random, whatever the RTP of the version in play. An RTP is an average over very many bets, not a promise for one evening.
Checking the RTP before you bet means looking beyond the lobby tile. Which RTP version King Betting runs is shown only in the game rules. Open the game rules before the first spin to see the version in play. Each version carries its own percentage.
Deciding whether the top prize matters to you starts with the ceiling. The maximum win is a ceiling, and it is reached very rarely. A Free Spins round stops the moment its total win reaches the ceiling. The ceiling is a multiple of the bet, so its money value grows with the stake.
Six questions settled
You will know the bet range, the free spins trigger and the buy price before you spin.
Plan your bankroll for a high volatility game. Big Bass Reel Repeat pays in bursts, so wins can be rare and then large. The maximum win is 5,000 times the bet.
Choose any bet from A$0.10 to A$500 per spin. The paytable uses A$0.20 as its bet, and the top Ante Bet level costs 2.5 times the bet.
Read the RTP as a long-run average of 96.51 percent for this slot. Series titles run from 96.50 to 96.52 percent, and one session can still land far above or below that figure.
Land three, four or five SCATTER symbols anywhere on the reels to start Free Spins. Three SCATTER symbols give 10 spins, four give 15 and five give 20.
Use the buy option only when the cost fits your session budget. At a A$5 bet, Buy Free Spins costs A$500, and Ante Bet at 15x or 25x switches the purchase off.
Compare the maximum win first. Big Bass Splash 1000 caps at 25,000 times the bet, while Big Bass Blast, Football Bonanza, Trophy Catch and Raceday Repeat cap at 5,000 times. RTP differs by only a few hundredths of a percent between the versions.
