The win cap and the top box share 5,000x

A Free Spins round ends the instant its total win reaches 5,000x the bet; the game pays out and forfeits every spin still left. The ceiling sits close. A single Money box can carry 5,000x the total bet, so one collection at the base multiplier shuts the feature on the spot. Within the recorded Big Bass line, most entries publish a higher return than this one's 96.07%. The cap and the top box share one number; the return runs below most of the family. This build keeps both ends of the scale in view: the prize that ends the round, and the paper return that trails the line.

How the game plays out

Two prices open the two routes into the features: 100x the total bet buys a blind pick from 12 face-down cards, 270x goes straight to the lake. Both Free Spins modes share one Wild-collection ladder, where every 4th Fisherman Wild adds 10 spins and steps the Money multiplier through 2x, 3x and 10x, before play settles back on the 5x3 base grid.

Base Game: The default state runs 5 reels and 3 rows with 10 fixed Lines paying left to right, and no Fisherman Wild lands here, so the only exit runs through Scatters. The Ante Bet toggle shifts the bet multiplier from 10x to 15x to put more Scatters on the reels, and while the toggle is on the Buy Free Spins option stays locked.
Free Spins: Three, four or five Scatters anywhere award 10, 15 or 20 spins on the standard reels, which keep their normal symbols and add the Fisherman Wild on all five reels; each Wild that lands collects every Money value on screen. Wilds feed the shared ladder: the 4th, 8th and 12th collected each retrigger 10 spins and lift the Money multiplier to 2x, then 3x, then 10x. A 100x buy also lands here when the card pick reveals BONUS.
Pick a Card: Paying 100x the total bet opens this checkpoint before any bonus spin starts: twelve identical face-down cards in two rows, one pick, one reveal. The flipped card reads either BONUS, which starts the regular round, or SECRETS OF THE GOLDEN LAKE, which swaps in the lake round and its special reels. The 270x buy route never passes through this screen.
Golden Lake Free Spins: Only Money boxes, Fisherman Wild portraits and blank tiles remain on the reels, so each spin resolves through Money symbols paying in combinations, with every Fisherman Wild on screen collecting their values. The round starts at 10 spins with no 15- or 20-spin tier and follows the same Wild-collection ladder as the regular round. Entry costs 270x the total bet and skips the card pick entirely.
