Big Bopper Slots

With 2024 marking the 65th anniversary of the plane crash that took the Big Bopper, as well as Buddy Holly and Ritchie Valens, we thought it was time to revisit the long-loved RTG slot, Big Bopper. The game features a musical theme, and the cut scenes include real-life black-and-white footage of the artist's performances and, predictably, an outstanding soundtrack. Beyond the attractive, although simple, game design, the Big Bopper Slots boasts two unique rounds of free spins, exciting instant wins, and a generous respin feature.

Staking on Billboard Hits

While Big Bopper Slots has 243 ways to win, the game has 30 betways, or paylines, to cover when placing wagers. Each line costs between $0.01 and $1.00, typical of the developer at the time, which makes each spin fall somewhere between $0.30 and $30. Despite the game's convenient, affordable wagering options, some players prefer the demo version; look for it at participating casinos.

Every Reel Rocks With This Paytable

Although the 2016 Big Bopper can't compete with today's games graphically, the themed symbol set and clean design make the slot a hit in our book. After loading the paytable, look for symbols like the Gold Record, White Lightning, Jukebox, Microphone, Turntable, Record, Guitar, Phone, and Music Note.

The Big Bopper himself is the wild in the game, substituting for everything but the bonus-launching scattered letters that spell "Bopper." Making the game's wild symbol even more attractive is the three-times multiplier it provides on all wins it completes.

Spell Out a Win in the Bonus Features

The slot offers four features, and launching one requires the letters B-O-P-P-E-R to appear across the game's reels. After securing a correct combination, the game will initiate one of the features below.

• Between three and scattered letter symbols from left to right will initiate the respin round. When triggered, this feature holds the existing letters and continues spinning the reels and awarding prizes until after the reels fail to improve the "BOPPER" combination.
• When the instant win feature begins, the Big Bopper will start singing Chantilly Lace and award a prize worth 20 times the stake. The longer our musical hero continues, the better the game's prizes; bet multiplier wins ranging from 50 to 250 may become available.
• Like the instant win feature, the Chantilly Lace Free Spins continue as long as the song does. Not only will up to 45 free games occur while the Big Bopper sings Chantilly Lace, but you'll also see multipliers reaching as high as ten times.
• The White Lightning Free Spins feature plays the same as the Chantilly Lace version, although without the multiplier. You'll, of course, also notice a change in the song playing during the round as White Lightning becomes the soundtrack for these wins.
