General information about Big Bass Splash 1000
Big Bass Splash 1000 is a Pragmatic Play slot published on the provider’s website on November 30, 2025. It is a boosted sequel to Big Bass Splash: the mechanic is the same, but the win ceiling has been raised to 25,000x the bet.
The grid is 5×3 with 10 fixed paylines. The base game RTP is 96.52%, with the Ante Bet 96.53%, and with the Bonus Buy 96.53% or 96.51% depending on the option. Bets range from $0.10 to $250 per spin. The Ante Bet doubles the bet.
The max win is capped at 25,000x the bet; with the Ante Bet it is 12,500x the doubled bet. According to the provider, the max win occurs about once in 3.8 million spins. This is the highest cap among the series games on the site, so the spread of results here is also the widest.

Symbols and payouts
The paytable is standard for Splash: four premium symbols, a money fish and five low symbols. The top symbol gives 200x for five and 0.5x already for two on a line. The low symbols are split into two groups paying 10x and 5x for a full line.
Symbol values have not changed compared with the predecessors. Only the bonus potential and the fish values have increased.

Bonus features and mechanics
Triggering free spins
Three, four or five Scatters award 10, 15 or 20 free spins. After each spin, Wilds and money fish can randomly appear on the grid. The bonus can be bought for 100x the bet, or you can choose the enhanced option for 450x.
Modifiers before the bonus
Before free spins, a fishing animation plays that can reveal up to five modifiers: more money fish, special symbols, extra free spins and a start straight from the second level. The number of modifiers revealed strongly affects the expected outcome of the bonus.
Fish collection and levels
In free spins, the Wild collects the values of all money fish on the screen — from 2x to 1,000x the bet. Every fourth Wild adds 10 free spins and raises the multiplier: 2x on the first retrigger, 3x on the second and 10x on the third.
At the 10x level, even medium fish give significant amounts. That is why the 25,000x cap is achievable here, although very rarely.
Pros and cons
A summary of the strengths and risks of this version.
Pros
- The 25,000x cap is the highest among the series games on the site
- Up to five modifiers before free spins
- Random Wilds and fish after spins
- Two Bonus Buy options
Cons
- The Ante Bet doubles the bet rather than raising it by 50%
- Base game RTP of 96.52%
- A very wide spread of results between bonuses
Hands-on testing in demo mode
In the demo, the base game resembles classic Splash: small wins are frequent, and the session gradually goes into the red. The random appearance of Wilds and fish sometimes gives nice intermediate wins, but the bonus remains the main event.
The outcome of free spins depends on the modifiers. A start from the second level or extra fish lead to a big bonus noticeably more often. A bonus without modifiers mostly ends within a few dozen bets.
The spread matches the 25,000x cap: most bonuses are modest, rare ones are very big. The 450x buy is worth testing in the demo over a series of several attempts.
Verdict and rating
Big Bass Splash 1000 is the most powerful version of Splash in the series. It keeps the clear mechanic but forces you to reckon with the spread: big results are rare, and some bonuses don’t pay back their cost.
Beginners are better off starting with the base bet, without the Ante and without buying. For long sessions with a micro bankroll, the game only works at the minimum bet and with realistic expectations. For high rollers, the 25,000x potential and the 450x buy offer the most room in the series.
Editorial rating: 8.6 out of 10.
