Take yourself off on a fishing bonanza with Thunderkick’s Big Fin Bay. Fishing themed slots are ten a penny but Big Fin Bay has a spark of magic in terms of win potential, which I’ll explain later in the review.

About Big Fin Win

Played on 6 reels with 40 ways to win, the reels can expand for a potential of up to 117,649 winning ways. The slot is available to play on desktop and mobile devices from 10p up to £100 per spin, it’s highly volatile with an RTP of 96.15% which can produce top wins of 15,040 the total bet.Although Big Fin Bay is not a Megways slot it does offer an expanding reels feature. Big Fin Bay is a cartoon-styled fishing-themed slot with simplified graphics which are bright and colourful. Reels sit in front of the deep blue sea surrounded by a coastal landscape.Card suits represent low-value symbols with higher symbols including 4 fish. The fisherman is the most lucrative he pays 7x the bet for 6 in a winning combination.A golden Marlin fish is the game’s wild symbol, if it is part of a winning combo it expands to cover the entire reel.

Gameplay

Wilds are the key to catching a haul of prizes. In the base game, these appear as both expanding and mystery wilds, in the free spins they can award re-spins.Mystery wilds appear randomly during the base game and can transform up to three reels fully wild.If a wild is part of a winning combination, the mystery wild feature triggers and the entire reel becomes wild boosting your winning potential.The free spins have the potential for producing huge wins. You’ll need three or more anchor scatters landing for 6 spins per scatter. 6 scatters award you a total of 36 free spins. During the free spins, any wild landing expands the reel up to 7 symbols high and a re-spin is awarded. The expanded reels remain for the duration of the free spins.

Conclusion

Although the visuals are pretty basic the features have the potential to produces some pretty decent wins. The expanding reels during the free spins plus the wilds can see wins of up to 15,040x the total bet.
