02Base game

The Megaways version has far more ways and random modifiers, so the base game is livelier. The original is calmer and simpler.

03The bonus

Both use the same fisherman and ladder. The Megaways version can pay more thanks to its higher cap.

04Which one?

  • Big Bass Bonanza Megaways for more ways and a higher cap.
  • Big Bass Bonanza for the simple original.
