Thunderkick goes fishing with Bass Hunter slot release
Thunderkick has announced the release of Bass Hunter, a new fishing-themed online slot that will launch on July 8, taking players to a peaceful lakeside setting where fish symbols and respin features drive the action.
Bass Hunter centres around three special fish symbols — Cash Fish, Jackpot Fish and Mystery Fish — each capable of awarding different prizes when they appear on the reels. Players can also trigger the Hunter Respin feature, while a separate bonus round introduces increased multipliers designed to boost potential payouts.
While Thunderkick, which has released a preview video of Bass Hunter, has yet to reveal the full mathematics or RTP for the game, the Swedish iGaming developer has built a reputation for releasing distinctive slots that combine unusual themes with feature-heavy gameplay.
Previous releases such as Esqueleto Explosivo 3, Midas Golden Touch 3, The Wildos 2 and Pink Elephants 2 have continued the studio’s focus on colourful artwork and mechanics that differ from many traditional online slots.
Fishing remains one of the most popular themes in the online casino industry, with Bass Hunter joining a crowded category that includes slots built around cash collecting fish symbols and bonus features. Thunderkick appears to be taking a slightly different approach by combining those familiar mechanics with a wilderness setting and a feature centred on tracking down bigger catches.
According to the developer, Bass Hunter is designed around “patience, timing and knowing exactly when to reel it in”, with the bonus game offering the chance to turn a modest win into a much larger payout through enhanced multipliers.
Bass Hunter is scheduled to launch at Thunderkick online casino partners on July 8.
