Bass Hunter is a 5-reel video slot from Thunderkick with a 94.19% RTP, medium volatility and a 5,000x maximum win, playable here as a free demo or for real money. Thunderkick AB has built games since 2012 and ships them through Thunderkick Malta Ltd, and the studio holds certifications with the Gambling Commission under account numbers 40165 and 41752, Spelinspektionen, the Malta Gaming Authority, AGCO and Spilleloven. The fishing title went live on 14 August 2026 across a 5x3 grid with 10 fixed paylines. Real-money rounds on this page sit under an international Curacao licence.

The reels sit on a flat lake at dusk, in the lake-blue and sunset-amber palette Thunderkick used for the key art. The studio's own line for the game says calm waters hide big catches and every cast could pull up something huge, which turns out to be an honest summary of how the maths behaves. Tackle symbols carry the paytable: a fishing hat, a landing net, a tackle box and a rod return between 50x and 100x for five of a kind. Card royals from 10 to A top out at 10x, so the low pays never carry a spin on their own.

Cash Fish are the symbols worth watching. Each lands with a printed value of 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 10x, 15x or 25x the stake, and that number gets collected instead of resolving as a line win. Four Jackpot Fish sit on a separate scale above them: Mini at 50x, Minor at 100x, Major at 250x and Grand at 1,000x the bet. At the EUR 100 ceiling a single Grand Fish is worth EUR 100,000 before anything else on the grid is counted.

A Hunter Fish can drop at random on any spin where Cash Fish are already visible and no Fisherman has landed. When it does, every visible fish value goes into a bank and a respin sequence starts with the scatters held sticky. Fresh fish keep the respins running, and the sequence closes the moment a spin adds nothing new. A Fisherman ends it differently by collecting the banked total plus every fish still on screen, which is where long sessions on this slot tend to turn around.

Three scatters award 10 free spins, four award 15 and five award 20. The Fisherman Meter runs through the round, adding multipliers that climb to 5x and handing back extra bonus spins as it fills. Because that multiplier applies to collected fish values rather than to line wins, a mid-sized catch late in the round often beats an early Grand Fish at flat value. The 5,000x ceiling, worth EUR 500,000 at maximum stake, is reached through this round rather than base play.

Stakes start at EUR 0.10 and reach EUR 100 a spin. Three Bet+ settings change the odds of hitting a feature: Bonus Boost costs 1.5x the stake, Bonus Boost Plus costs 5x and Hunter Bet costs 10x. A Feature Buy is priced at 80x the stake for the bonus game and 250x for Hunter Spins, so a EUR 1 spin buys the bonus for EUR 80. The 94.19% return published by Thunderkick is below what most 2026 releases print, and none of the Bet+ or buy options raise it; they shorten the wait for variance that a 94.19% figure has to pay for somewhere.

First deposits from EUR 20 earn a 100% match worth up to EUR 500, plus 150 free spins on Bass Hunter that drip in at 50 per day, EUR 0.10 a spin, with the bonus turning over 35x inside 30 days. The second deposit pays 50% up to EUR 300 alongside 50 more spins, Monday cashback hands back 10% of net weekly losses up to EUR 200 at 1x, and the Friday spins unlock from EUR 25. The cashier runs Visa debit and Mastercard debit, Google Pay, Apple Pay, Skrill, Neteller, MiFinity, Trustly, Revolut, SEPA Instant, paysafecard and four coins.

The demo loads directly through Thunderkick's own launcher in demo mode, inside the browser, with no account and no download, and the HTML5 build serves a desktop or mobile layout from one address. Real-money play here sits on a generic international Curacao licence published without a number, and the operating company carries every legal obligation attached to this page. Remote gambling in Ireland, Malta and Sweden runs through national bodies such as GRAI and the Malta Gaming Authority, and no authority of that kind licenses this site.

Bass Hunter specifications

Bass Hunter at the reels

Five reels, three rows and 10 fixed paylines decide every base spin, with the tackle set paying 50x to 100x for five of a kind and royals from 10 to A capped at 10x. Cash Fish break that pattern by carrying their own printed value from 2x to 25x the stake, and the four Jackpot Fish stack above them at 50x, 100x, 250x and 1,000x. Stakes cover EUR 0.10 to EUR 100 a spin, so the 5,000x ceiling ranges from EUR 500 to EUR 500,000 depending on where the bet sits.

One studio stands behind this page. Thunderkick has released games since 2012 as Thunderkick AB, distributes them through Thunderkick Malta Ltd, and holds certifications with the Gambling Commission under accounts 40165 and 41752, Spelinspektionen, the Malta Gaming Authority, AGCO and Spilleloven. Bass Hunter is the studio's August 2026 fishing release and the only title this page covers.

Bonuses and promotions

Deposit EUR 20 or more and Bass Hunter doubles that first payment with a 100% match capped at EUR 500, plus 150 free spins on Bass Hunter worth EUR 0.10 each, handed over in daily batches of 50. The wagering requirement is 35x the bonus, with a 30 day window to finish it.

Deposits and withdrawals

Funding a real-money Bass Hunter session starts at EUR 10 on most rails and at EUR 20 on MiFinity, Trustly, standard SEPA and the four coins. Either deposit match needs EUR 20 to activate, which is also the figure worth using if the 150 free spins are the reason for the deposit.

Debit cards from Visa and Mastercard settle payouts in 1 to 24 hours. Skrill and Neteller can return a withdrawal inside the same hour and take up to 24, MiFinity runs 12 to 24 hours, and Revolut lands in 1 to 24. Apple Pay, Google Pay and paysafecard fund the balance but send nothing back, so pick a second rail for payouts before the first withdrawal.

SEPA Instant moves money in under 30 minutes in both directions while the ordinary SEPA transfer takes 1 to 3 business days and Trustly takes 1 to 2. Bitcoin confirms in 10 to 60 minutes, Litecoin in 2.5 to 10, Ethereum in 1 to 5 and Tether on TRC-20 or ERC-20 in 1 to 15, which makes USDT the quickest route off the balance.

SEPA Instant deposits credit inside half an hour and leave the same way, Skrill and Neteller can clear a withdrawal within the hour, and no fee is applied from this side on card, wallet or bank movements.

Licence, security and limits

Real-money Bass Hunter rounds on this page sit under a generic international Curacao licence, published without a number and without a named company. Thunderkick itself is certified with the Gambling Commission under accounts 40165 and 41752, Spelinspektionen, the Malta Gaming Authority, AGCO and Spilleloven, which is why the 94.19% return is audited at source. GRAI in Ireland and the Malta Gaming Authority regulate their own markets, and neither authorises this site.

Transport encryption covers the login, the banking screen and every balance call. Card details stay with the payment provider as a token instead of sitting on this side, crypto deposits credit once the network confirms them, and each payout request is checked against the rail that funded the balance before money leaves.

Account settings hold the controls: cap what you deposit per day, per week or per month, set a loss ceiling, run a session timer, or lock yourself out entirely. Each choice applies the second you save it. GamCare runs a free helpline in the United Kingdom, and Gambling Therapy keeps multilingual chat open across Europe for anyone who wants to talk to a person away from the reels.

Bass Hunter features

Bass Hunter symbols and payouts

Where to play Bass Hunter

• • Real money on this page: stakes from EUR 0.10 to EUR 100 with 100% up to EUR 500 and 150 free spins on a EUR 20 deposit
• • Free demo: Thunderkick launcher in demo mode, no account, identical 94.19% maths
• • Mobile browser: same HTML5 build served in portrait on Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge

Bass Hunter on a phone

Bass Hunter is an HTML5 build, so a single address serves the layout a device asks for: the Thunderkick launcher takes device=desktop or device=mobile and the reels redraw for a portrait screen without a separate download. Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge all load the complete feature set, Hunter Respins and the Fisherman Meter included.

Touch play changes the pace rather than the paytable. Autoplay and the three Bet+ toggles sit in one panel on a phone, the 94.19% RTP is identical on either screen, and a dropped connection resolves the open round on the server before the balance reappears.

Bankroll notes for Bass Hunter

• • A 94.19% return makes session length matter more here than stake size. Two hundred spins at EUR 0.50 put EUR 100 through the game and give back about EUR 94.19 on average, which is enough turnover to see several Hunter Respins at a cost you chose in advance.
• • Hunter Respins arrive while Cash Fish are already visible, and nothing about the bet level changes that trigger. Climbing the stake after a dry run shortens the session without improving the odds, so a flat EUR 0.20 to EUR 0.50 holds up better than a doubling pattern.
• • The buy options are a decision rather than a shortcut. At EUR 0.20 a spin the bonus game costs EUR 16 and Hunter Spins cost EUR 50, both resolving from the same paytable as a natural trigger, so treat the price as entertainment spend that is already budgeted.
