Wild Wild Bass 2 Slot Review & Demo 2024

Wild Wild Bass 2 by the esteemed game developer Stakelogic, takes us on an exciting fishing expedition that promises big game and potentially high returns. Wild Wild Bass2 doubles down on the thrill and encapsulates the spirit of the wild outdoors and the joy of angling, all while bringing the chance to win some serious cash….or does it? Wild Wild Bass 2 has failed in our initial investigation to show us anything significant that differentiates it from its predecessor.

Will Stakelogic be successful in casting out their reel yet again to grab their share of the fishing slot success? There are bigger fish out there, namely the Big Bass Bonanza Series, and who could forget the seemingly immortal Fishin’ Frenzy franchise?

We’re not sure Wild Wild Bass 2 will take the crown, but we’re duty-bound to give it a thorough analysis in case we’re wrong!

Wild Wild Bass Base Game and Features

Wild Wild Bass 2 is a 6-reel slot with up to 2304 ways to win in the base game. Matching symbols on any position on three or more adjacent reels, starting from the leftmost reel forms a winning combination. The highest paying symbol is the Fishing Rod and Seagull, and they’re followed by the Fishing Float, Life Ring and Tackle Box. Low paying symbols are Ace, King, Queen, Jack 10 & 9. The Wild symbol doubles up as a Scatter

Wild Symbols

The Wild symbol only appears on the first 2 reels. Landing 2 Wild Symbols triggers the BIG CATCH feature.

The BIG CATCH Feature

The Big Catch feature awards more ways to win. All money values on the Bss symbols are awarded in addition to normal wins. Landing the Insane Catch symbol during the Big Catch feature triggers the insane catch feature.

Bass Symbol

Each Bass Symbol has a random money value that is a multiplier of the bet. Bass symbol values are only awarded during the Big Catch and Insane Catch Feature.

Insane Catch Symbol

The Insane Catch Symbol is a rare and high-paying symbol that appears only in the base game. It showcases a leaping bass surrounded by a fiery aura, and landing this symbol can reward up to 50 times your stake, promising potentially insane wins.

Insane Catch Feature

Reels 1 and 2 transition to 1 multiplier reel. Each insane spin has a multiplier value between x2 and x5. Reels 3, 4, 5 and 6 transform into 20 mini reels that spin independently.

Only Bass symbols, insane catch symbols or blank spaces can land during the insane catch feature. On each insane spin, bass money values are awarded, and the multiplier is applied.

Wild Wild Bass 2 – Bonus Buy (Non-UK)

For those anglers who don’t want to wait for the big catch, the Bonus Buy option is available. For 100 times the bet, players can purchase direct entry to the feature.

Wild Wild Bass 2 Slot – Our Verdict

Wild Wild Bass 2 doesn’t really carry forward the legacy of its predecessor, not that there was much of a legacy to begin with. To start positively, With the Super Stake option, the Insane Catch Feature, and the Bonus Buy, it accommodates a range of players, from those looking for consistent, smaller wins to high-rollers hunting the big game. Aesthetically pleasing visuals and an immersive theme paired with potentially rewarding gameplay make this slot game a ‘catch’ worth trying, if you’re completely new to the series, but if you’ve tried the old one then you’ll be thoroughly disappointed with the sequel.

The only difference here is seemingly a bonus buy feature, which doesn’t quite pass as a sequel in our eyes. NetEnt added a feature buy to Dead or Alive II, but they didn’t market it as Dead or Alive III. It’s a bit of a sleight of hand on Stakelogic’s part, and we can’t say we’re overly impressed with it. As far as fishing slots go, Wild Wild Bass 2 is pretty meagre. The game is nowhere near as capable as other fishing slots with a 3,000x win cap, and it’s quite unimaginative if we’re being honest.

We love Stakelogic, but we’re not singing their praises for this one we’re afraid.

We’re not sure if Wild Wild Bass 2 was just a filler before something better comes out, but part of us would have been happier with nothing. For UK players there is no appeal at all.

Wild Wild Bass 2 could potentially boost its appeal if it appears as part of Stakelogics Jackpot Spin To Win catalogue. If it does, we’ll reevaluate it.
