RTP builds

Sweet Bonanza Xmas is sold to casinos in more than one configured return, and the operator picks the one it runs. Most sites print a single figure, which is simply wrong for anyone playing a different build.

About Sweet Bonanza Xmas

Sweet Bonanza Xmas is Pragmatic Play's festive build of Sweet Bonanza, released six months after the original for the 2019 Christmas season. Mechanically it is the same game in different clothes, which matters if you are choosing between them: the six-reel, five-row grid pays with no paylines at all, and eight or more matching symbols anywhere in view are paid according to the table. Every win tumbles, so the winning symbols burst, new ones drop in behind them, and a single spin can settle several times over. There are no wilds; the lollipop is the scatter, and four, five or six of them in view pay 3x, 5x or 100x the stake as well as starting the bonus. The feature opens with ten free spins, and every three scatters that land during it award five more. The part that separates this game from its base round is the bomb: multiplier symbols worth between 2x and 100x land anywhere during free spins, stay in place through the tumble sequence, and at the end of the sequence their values are added together and applied to the whole spin's payout at once. That single addition is where the 21,175x cap comes from. Ante bet and bonus buy are both offered, subject to your jurisdiction. The paytable, the exact multiplier ranges and the retrigger rule are set out in the game's own information panel.

Sweet Bonanza Xmas: common questions

What is the RTP of Sweet Bonanza Xmas?

The studio default for Sweet Bonanza Xmas is 96.53%, but the game is also sold to casinos at 96.48%. Which build runs is the operator's choice rather than yours, so check the game's own info screen before you play.

What is the maximum win in Sweet Bonanza Xmas?

Wins in Sweet Bonanza Xmas are capped at 21,175x your stake. That is the ceiling of the game's maths rather than a typical outcome — reaching it is rare.

How volatile is Sweet Bonanza Xmas?

Sweet Bonanza Xmas is a high-volatility game: wins land less often and the gaps between them are wider, so a bankroll that survives long dry spells matters more here than it does elsewhere.

Can you buy the bonus in Sweet Bonanza Xmas?

Yes — Sweet Bonanza Xmas has a bonus buy: you pay a fixed multiple of your stake to start the bonus round instead of waiting for it. Whether it is offered depends on the casino, and the buy is banned outright in several markets.

What are the minimum and maximum bets in Sweet Bonanza Xmas?

Stakes in Sweet Bonanza Xmas run from 0.2 to 100 per round, in whatever currency your casino uses. Individual casinos can narrow that range.
