Sweet Bonanza Slot

Do you have a sweet tooth?

The Sweet Bonanza slot from Pragmatic Play might be just what you are looking for.

Sweet Facts

This game serves out sugary rewards of up to 21,175x your bet on a six-reel and five-row grid where symbols drop down from above and dissolve if they make up a win (just like the Thunderstruck Stormchaser slot, on that game they are called Rolling Reels). Afterwards, additional symbols tumble into the gaps giving you a second shot at the prizes.

There is also a Free Spins feature to play for with a Rainbow Bomb which can turbocharge your bonus spin wins with up to a 100x multiplier.

Pragmatic Play launched this game in June 2019 with an RTP of 96.5%. This is a high-variance game, so be careful. Features include Cascading wins, Cluster Pays, Free Spins, Multipliers and Scatters.

This game is hugely popular and up there with the likes of Rainbow Riches and Starburst, in terms of the number of players it attracts. Once you have played it, you will understand why. It’s been inspired by Candy Crush. Well, that’s pretty clear, isn’t it?

Sweet Bonanza Game Play

It’s a treat alright. The Sweet Bonanza slot comes with 6 reels and 5 rows. To win, you need to drop in 8 or more of the same symbols anywhere across the reels. Well, they do say 8 is a lucky number.

The more of the same symbol you can land, the higher the win.

How Does it Look?

Pretty enticing! This is a colourful game themed on all things for sweet tooths with candy and a selection of fruit to keep things healthy. The low-paying symbols include bananas, blueberries, watermelons, plums and apples.

Higher up the pay scale are the sweets with the red heart candy being the most lucrative. 8-9, 10-11 or 12 or more of these pay 10, 25 or 50x your bet respectively.

And look out for those swirly lollipops! More on those below.

Sweet Bonanza Slot Features

The big story of this slot game is the Tumbling Reels feature (also known as Avalanche or Cascading Reels) and bonus spins.

Tumbling Sweets
When you make up a win, the symbols that make up the win dissolve off the reel set and are replaced by new symbols. It’s like Gonzo´s Quest if you have played that. If you manage to build a new win, it happens again. And again, until you fail to make a winning combination. Tumble on!

Sweet Symbols

Sweet Bonanza is full of candy treats. Who’d have known? 😉 They land across six reels and five rows, and don’t require fixed pay lines to make a win: landing the same symbols anywhere across the reel set will trigger a pay out if you land enough of them. You need eight or more to win up to 50X your bet.

You will see the following symbols across the reels:

• Apple
• Banana
• Grapes
• Plum
• Watermelon
• Blue candy
• Green candy
• Purple candy
• Red heart candy

And to make things even sweeter, the symbols that make up a win will kick off the Avalanche feature. Winning symbols will disappear, and new ones will slot into their place giving you 2 or even more chews at a win.

Free Bonus Spins

Like any good slot, Sweet Bonanza gives you the chance to win some free games.

To set off the Free Spins you will need four, five or six 6 lollipops across the reel set. They look delicious! For that you will get a 3x, 5x or 100x your bet win plus ten free spins.

In the bonus spins you will meet the Candy Bomb. These rainbow bombs have juicy multipliers from 2x up to 100x. If you scoop a win and a couple of candy bombs drop in (say a 10x bomb and a 20x bomb), you will get the sum of the multipliers on that bonus spin win, so 30x in this example.

The other good news is that you can re-trigger the bonus spins in the feature. Get three more scatters on the same spin and you will get five more bonus spins. In theory, you can do this ad infinitum.

Players from countries other than the UK can buy Bonus Spins with the Buy feature. It’s not cheap though.

Tip

Settings

This sweet slot has some handy settings on the dashboard. So you can switch the ambient music on and off if you like (we didn’t mind it, we’ve heard worse!)

You can enable battery saver (less animation), set the game to fast spin (unless you are in the UK), switch off the game sounds and disable the intro screen. These are all good options for mobile players who want to save their batteries.

You can change your bet levels from here too, it’s pretty powerful.

Pros and Cons

Sweet Smell of Success

The Sweet Bonanza slot has become one of the most popular games online. In Canada, it’s probably the most popular video slot around. It’s a Top 10 slot in New Zealand and Ireland as well.

It’s a simple game that is fun to play and you can get into some decent runs if you are lucky. If you bag a few of those 100x Candy Bombs in the bonus spins, you’ll be enjoying those lollipops.

But be careful though, as this is a high-variance game which could mean some dry periods. Plan your bet level accordingly and only bet what you can afford to lose. That goes for any game of course, but especially for a high volatility slot as you should expect a lower frequency of higher wins.

Let’s hope you get lucky.

Summary

This game is sweet! With its 6×5 reel set, Avalanche Wins, 100x Candy Bombs and a 21,100x max win, the Sweet Bonanza slot all adds up to a cracker.

It’s worth a spin!
