Sweet Bonanza Game Review
Sweet Bonanza takes you straight into a surreal Willy Wonka world of sweets, cakes and sugary fruits. The game was released on June 27, 2019 by Pragmatic Play in all casinos. If you are trying to watch your diet, you should be careful with this game. Just kidding, of course, but we can promise you a serious weight gain on your bank account if you take advantage of the crazy potential of this game.
With the sugary Bizzaro land in the background, this game is played on 6 reels, 5 rows and a “cluster pays” engine where you win as long as you land 8+ identical symbols anywhere on the reels. The bumping/cascading reels can bring you many consecutive wins on each spin. This is a medium to high variance slot with an RTP of 96.52%, which is slightly above the industry average.
It's really all about the free spins features in this game, and you will benefit from sugar bomb symbols that can give your wins a multiplier increase to 100x your bet. This is where the true potential of this game lies, and you can win some extremely high payouts of up to 21,000 times your bet here.
What are the symbols?
Enter a surreal world full of candy, sweets, and fruits, and you'll even get paid where these symbols land on the reels. As long as you land at least 8 identical symbols at the same time, you're good. The paytable for Sweet Bonanza looks like this:
LoLlipop Scatter – Pays 100x for more than 6 on the reels.
Red Heart – Pays 50x for more than 12 on the reels
Purple candy – Pays 25x for more than 12 on the reels
Green Candy – Pays 15x for more than 12 on the reels
Blue Candy – Pays 12x for more than 12 on the reels
Apple – Pays 10x for more than 12 on the reels
Plum – Pays 8x for more than 12 on the reels
Melon – Pays 5x for more than 12 on the reels
Grape – Pays 4x for more than 12 everywhere on the reels
Banana – Pays 2x for more than 12 anywhere on the reels
What are the bonus features?
There is really only one bonus feature in this game, and that is the free spins feature, which we will discuss below. However, it is good to know that Sweet Bonanza comes with a tumble feature after every win. This means that all the winning symbols will explode, making room for new symbols to fill the empty spaces. This continues as long as you keep winning.
Free Spins in Sweet Bonanza
The free spins feature of Sweet Bonanza slot is triggered when you land at least 4 LoLlipop scatters at the same time. You will receive a payout according to the number of scatters landed. After that, you will receive 10 free spins. The most important thing about the free spins feature is the candy bombs, as they can boost your winnings with a multiplier between 2 and 100 times your bet. If you land 3 new scatters, you will get 5 new free spins added to your account.
What is the jackpot (maximum win)?
While there is no progressive or local jackpot in Sweet Bonanza, the potential of this game is surprisingly large. The maximum win is 21,100 times your bet, but this requires maximum luck with the 100x multiplier. In any case, this means that if you play at the highest possible bet level, you can win up to £2,625,000 on this medium to high variance slot.
You can also play Sweet Bonanza on mobile devices and tablets, and Pragmatic Play always makes sure that the games look great on any platform or mobile device. You can take this game with you and pick it up whenever you feel like sugar and massive winnings.
Verdict
Sweet Bonanza will certainly add some weight to your wallet if you get lucky with the free spins multiplier, but you have to be careful not to get too many sweet tooths with this volatile game. Anyone who craves massive wins will likely find this sugar-coated slot to be a rare delicacy, and it's sure to keep you interested, even if all the action really takes place in the free spins feature.
Pros
Free spins with a multiplier increase of up to 100x
8+ identical symbols landing anywhere will bring a win
Massive potential with a maximum win of up to 21,000x
