Game Basics

Sweet Bonanza is a 6-reel, pay-anywhere slot with a candy/fruit theme. Wins are formed by landing 8+ matching symbols anywhere on the reels — no paylines required. The tumble mechanic removes winning symbols and drops new ones, creating chain-reaction wins from a single spin.

Bet range is $0.20 to $100 per spin at most Ontario casinos. The Ante Bet feature doubles the chance of triggering free spins at 25% extra cost.

Free Spins Feature

Four or more lollipop scatters trigger 10 free spins. During free spins, multiplier bomb symbols appear with values from 2x to 100x. When a multiplier bomb lands as part of a winning tumble, it multiplies the win. Multiple multipliers add together.

The combination of unlimited retriggers and high-value multipliers is what gives Sweet Bonanza its 21,100x max win potential. A 100x bomb landing on a full-screen premium symbol tumble is the dream scenario.

Drops & Wins

Sweet Bonanza is one of the anchor games in Pragmatic Play's Drops & Wins tournament series, which runs at most Ontario casinos with $1.5M+ monthly prize pools. Tournament play adds leaderboard scoring on top of base game wins.

If you're playing in a Drops & Wins promotion, the minimum qualifying bet is typically $0.50 per spin. Check the specific casino's promotion page for details.
