How Sweet Bonanza plays
Tumbling scatter-pays: winning symbols vanish and new ones drop in. Free spins add multiplier bombs from 2x to 100x, which sum at the end of a tumble sequence.
Volatility and your bankroll
High.
Volatility describes the shape of the payouts rather than how much a game returns overall. A high rating means long quiet stretches broken by larger wins, and it needs a bigger balance relative to your stake to survive them. A low rating pays smaller and more often, which makes a modest balance last. Neither is more generous — see how volatility affects a session.
What the RTP figure actually tells you
Around 96.5% at the default setting — Pragmatic's page says 96.48%, databases say 96.51%. A reduced build near 95.45% is deployed at more casinos than the default.
Return to player is a long-run average measured over millions of spins. It says nothing about your session and nothing about the next spin. More importantly, many slots ship in several RTP configurations and the operator chooses which to run — so a figure quoted on a review site may not describe the build you are playing. Check the game's own info panel, which reflects what is actually deployed.
Worth knowing
Live lobby scanning found the reduced RTP build at more casinos than the default one. Check the in-game info panel rather than a quoted figure.
