Sweet Bonanza Slot Review

Sweet Bonanza Slot RTP, Details & Wager Limits

The Sweet Bonanza UK slot is played using a 6 reel, 5 row, All Ways game engine. The way winners are formed is a little unusual. To create a winner, all you need to do is land 8 or more of the same symbol anywhere on the reels.

They don’t have to be in paylines, on adjoining reels or in clusters. Anywhere on the reels will do. The more matching symbols, the bigger the reward. It’s possible to land winning combinations of more than 1 symbol on the same spin. Cluster Pays slots require matching symbols to be adjacent to one another on the other hand.

You can get stuck in at stake levels that range from between 20p and £125 per spin. Use the + and – tabs next to the spin button to adjust stakes. Autoplay lets you set between 10 and 1,000 autospins if required. Paytable payouts are shown in cash rather than coins which keeps things simple and straightforward.

The Sweet Bonanza RTP is 96.49% which is much better than average. Pragmatic Play also offer a 95.45% version which may be used by some UK casinos.

The design might be rather sugary but the volatility here is pretty spicy. This is in the medium to high range when it comes to variance. There are potentially big rewards up for grabs here too with the max win 21,175 x your total stake from a single spin.

Theme – sugary extravaganza

The Sweet Bonanza slot is a very colour confection. A strange world made up entirely of sweets and cakes is the setting here. It will remind you of the California Gurls music video by Katy Perry. There’s a rather jolly soundtrack playing in the background while you spin. It’s not particularly catchy but it didn’t have us rushing to find the mute button either.

On the reels you’ll see an assortment of fruit and candy symbols. The lower value symbols include bananas, blueberries, watermelons, plums and red apples. More lucrative are the blue rectangle gems, green polygon gems, square purple gems and red heart gems. The highest paying symbol is the red heart gem. Land 12 or more for a payout of 50 times your stake. Here’s a list of payouts for each symbol:

Symbol	Payouts/Info
Banana	8-9, 10-11 or 12+ = 0.25, 0.75 or 2 x stake
Blueberries	8-9, 10-11 or 12+ = 0.4, 0.9 or 4 x stake
Watermelon	8-9, 10-11 or 12+ = 0.5, 1 or 5 x stake
Plum	8-9, 10-11 or 12+ = 0.8, 1.2 or 8 x stake
Red Apple	8-9, 10-11 or 12+ = 1, 1.5 or 10 x stake
Blue Rectangle Gem	8-9, 10-11 or 12+ = 1.5, 2 or 12 x stake
Green Polygon Gem	8-9, 10-11 or 12+ = 2, 5 or 15 x stake
Square Purple Gem	8-9, 10-11 or 12+ = 2.5, 10 or 25 x stake

Sweet Bonanza Mobile

Pragmatic Play has created versions of Sweet Bonanza that have been fully optimised for play on tablets and smartphones as well as desktop computers. The colourful design is nice and clear even on the smaller screens. Even accounting for the relatively large number of moving parts, the design holds up well. The features are constant no matter what you’re playing on.

Sweet Bonanza Bonus Features

The highlight of Sweet Bonanza are tumbling reels and free spins. If you do manage to trigger the free spins, look out for multipliers which can boost payouts by up to 100x.

Tumble feature

When you do form a winning combination, the Tumble feature is triggered. The successful symbols are removed from the grid and new symbols drop in and replace them. If this leads to a new winning combination being created, the process is repeated. The tumbles keep on coming until there’s one where no new winner is created.

Ante Bet feature

You’ll have the option to increase your stake size from 20 to 25 coins per spin. For example, if you were playing at £1 per spin, it would cost you £1.25 per spin for the Ante Bet feature. In return, you’ll see extra scatter symbols added to the reels which double your chances of triggering the free spins. This extra can be found in many other Pragmatic Play slot games.

Free Spins feature

To trigger the Free Spins feature, land 4, 5 or 6 of the lollipop scatter on the same spin. Your reward is a payout of 3, 5 or 100 x your total stake plus a bonus trigger of 10 free spins.

Joining the action during the feature is the candy bomb symbol. These rainbow-coloured bombs come multipliers up to 100x. The multiplier ranges from 2x to 100x. If you were to land winning combination as well as a 20x candy bomb and 10x candy bomb, the multiplier values are added together (i.e. 30x) to your win from that tumble/free spin.

Retriggers are possible too. Landing 3 scatters on the same spin adds 5 more free spins to your tally. There’s no limit to how many extra free spins you can win either.

You’ll also have the option to buy your way into the Free Spins feature via the Buy feature. It’s not available in the UK though due to regulations from the UK Gambling Commission. If available, this will set you back 100 x your total stake.

Play Sweet Bonanza

Sweet Bonanza Slot

Sweet Bonanza is one of Pragmatic Play’s top slots and for good reason. With Candy Bomb multipliers up to 100x, a high RTP rate and big win potential, load up on sugar for sickly sweet payouts.

Pros

• Huge 21,175 x bet wins possible
• Excellent Free Spins feature
• High 96.49% RTP rate

Cons

• Theme might not appeal to some

Since its release, the Sweet Bonanza slot has gone on to become something of a fan favourite. Expect to see this Pragmatic Play game at the top of lobbies in the best slot sites in the UK. The design and gameplay are pretty simple but this game can deliver some knockout action.

The key to big wins is from the candy bomb multipliers in the free spins. Just hope you get a few tumbles are well as a couple of big multipliers to get anywhere near the max 21,175 x stake wins available on each free spin.

It might look super sweet but this is a volatile slot and the variance here is high. So too are the potential rewards if the candy bomb multiplier does its stuff. The theme won’t be for everyone but if you have a sweet tooth, you’ll probably want to get stuck into this slot. Don’t hesitate to try our free Sweet Bonanza demo and decide for yourself.

If you want more sugary treats, the Chocolates slot by Big Time Gaming is highly recommended and offers a 96.6% RTP and 65,536 x stake wins. Another option is the Donuts slot (also from Big Time Gaming) which comes with 40,000 x stake wins per spin.
