This Week's Free Slot Tournament: Big Bass Halloween Splash 1000 By Pragmatic Play
Our Free Slot Tournament is back for another week, and this time the spotlight’s on Big Bass Halloween Splash 1000, a seasonal spin on Pragmatic Play’s long-running fishing series where the fanged fisherman trades his usual catch for something spookier.
It’s completely free to enter, with no deposit or download required. Just log in, pick the live tournament and use your fixed spins to land winning combinations and climb the leaderboard before it closes.
Our Monthly Tournament runs in parallel in the same format, so there's a second leaderboard to aim for, too.
Meet This Week’s Game: Big Bass Halloween Splash 1000
Big Bass Halloween Splash 1000 is a 5x3 slot with 10 fixed paylines and medium volatility, where landing 3, 4 or 5 scatters triggers the bonus game with 10, 15 or 20 free spins.
Land just two scatters and there’s still a random chance of extra ones being added to help trigger the feature anyway.
Before the bonus begins, players pick from six pumpkins to reveal up to five possible modifiers, unlocking extra wilds, money symbols, free spins, or better odds of features triggering.
During the round itself, fisherman wilds collect fish money symbols worth up to 1,000x, and every fourth wild collected retriggers the feature with 10 more free spins and a step-up multiplier of 2x, 3x, then 10x on the final retrigger.
It’s a game with plenty of moving parts stacking up toward a big score, and exactly the kind of title that makes for an entertaining tournament format. The RTP sits at 96.50%.
Tips To Climb This Week’s Leaderboard
Because tournament scoring is based on landing winning combinations rather than real-money stakes, the games that reward players fastest tend to be the ones with frequent, visible payouts.
Big Bass Halloween Splash 1000’s fisherman wilds and retrigger chain mean points can build quickly once the bonus game gets going, and that’s where the biggest score jumps happen.
Since your spins are fixed and don’t refresh once they’re used, it’s worth spending a minute getting a feel for how the pumpkin picks and wild collection work before you dive in properly, rather than burning through your spins before you understand the game.
A couple of quick tips for anyone chasing the top of the leaderboard this week:
- Don’t rush your spins early - get a feel for how the pumpkin modifiers and fisherman wilds interact first, since you won’t get your spins back once they’re gone.
- Watch for the retrigger chain. Once wilds start stacking up every fourth hit, the climbing multiplier is where your score has the best chance of jumping significantly.
