Pragmatic Play · 2019
Sweet Bonanza is a 6x5 video slot from Pragmatic Play with scatter wins, tumbling and free spins. This page covers its figures, rounds, paytable and bonus modes.
The demo is free. The real game needs an account and you must be 18+.
A 6x5 grid holds fruit and candy symbols, from apples and plums to jelly candies and hearts. There are no paylines or ways. A win forms when 8 or more matching symbols land anywhere on the grid, counted by total. Winning symbols are paid and removed, the rest fall, and new symbols refill from above. Tumbles repeat until no new win forms, and every win from one spin is added to your balance.
4 or more Scatter symbols anywhere on the 6x5 grid start Free Spins, with 10 spins awarded. 3 or more Scatters during those spins adds 5 more spins. Free Spins use their own reel strips and bring Multiplier symbols worth 2x to 100x. The Multiplier values on the grid at the end of a tumble sequence are added together and multiply that sequence's win.

Sweet Bonanza basics
With A$0.20 as the floor, you can learn each step on a small stake.
A$0.20 is the lowest bet and A$240 the highest allowed here. Pick a stake before the first spin, because the bet decides what each win pays.
Eight matching symbols are the fewest that pay, and they can sit anywhere on the 6x5 grid. No paylines, so a win counts the total of one symbol on the grid.
2x to 100x is the value range of a multiplier symbol, and it only appears in free spins. In the base game, Tumble repeats with no cap until no wins remain.
Four or more scatters anywhere on the 6x5 grid start 10 free spins. Three scatters during the round add 5 more, and the multiplier symbols show up only in this round.
A$5 is the top example bet, so multiply it by the spins you plan. Wins and losses are not known in advance, so stop when the budget is gone.
Feature guide
The usual worry is when the bonus starts and what it asks of you.
4 or more SCATTER symbols anywhere on the 6x5 grid trigger 10 free spins. 3 or more scatters during the round add 5 additional free spins. The MULTIPLIER, worth 2x-100x, appears only in this round, and the total of those on screen multiplies that sequence's win.

Pressing the Buy Feature button starts 10 free spins at any purchase bet level. The price is 100x the bet, and the button is greyed out while Ante Bet is on.
Before any spin10 free spins
The 6x5 grid pays by scatter, no paylines. A win forms from the total count of a matching symbol anywhere on the grid. Paid symbols are removed, the rest fall, and tumbles repeat with no cap. Wins from one base spin add to the balance together.

Learn the reels first
Star Casino lets you look over the reels before any money moves.
The demo needs no money and pays nothing. The real game needs an account and the legal age of 18+.
Play for realFour or more scatters start the 10 free spins, yet how often that happens is not known in advance. Each spin is random, and past spins do not tell you what the next one holds. Whatever the RTP, the result of one session is random, so no one can predict when the next bonus round arrives.
Two RTP versions of Sweet Bonanza exist, and which one runs at Star Casino is shown only in the game rules. The two figures sit close together, yet a single session can still end far above or below the RTP. Read the RTP line in the game rules before you compare one session with another.
21,100 times the bet is the maximum win of Sweet Bonanza, and it is a ceiling reached very rarely. It shows the top of what one bet can pay, not what a session will bring. Set your bet with the amount you can afford to lose, because no session comes with a promised big win.
Pick your next game
At Star Casino, every slot page gives the rules first, so you can compare before you play.
18+ is the legal age for Sweet Bonanza. Call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858, or self-exclude through BetStop.
At A$0.40 a spin, set the amount you can afford to lose before the first round starts.
Choose when you stop before the first spin, and keep to it even after a big win in the free spins.
At A$240 a spin, a few rounds can shift the balance far more than at A$0.20, so set deposit and loss limits in your account first.
A$240 is the top bet here, so once the game stops being fun, step away before a bigger bet feels like the fix.
Common doubts
Star Casino puts the figures up front, so you judge the game before the first spin.
96.60% is the higher RTP version, while 96.49% is the lower one. RTP is a long-run average across many spins, so it says nothing about a single session.
21,100 times the bet is the top win, which is A$105,500 at the A$5 example bet. At the highest bet of A$240, the same 21,100 times the bet reaches A$5,064,000. Whether a spin gets there is down to chance, and nobody can know that in advance.
A$500 buys the Free Spins round at the A$5 example top bet, which is 100 times that bet. The buy always gives 10 free spins whatever bet level you choose. The buy is greyed out while the Ante Bet is switched on.
Medium volatility sits between low and high on the scale. Wins come in a middle rhythm, and no one can know in advance how a session will run.
A$0.20 is the lowest bet and A$240 the highest allowed here, with A$0.40 and A$5 as the example bets on this page. The paytable is shown at A$0.40, so the prizes there are read at that stake.
