Game Overview
Theme and Layout
We welcome players to a vibrant candy kingdom on a 6×5 grid. Fruit and confection symbols pay anywhere across the screen, delivering wins when 8 or more matching icons appear in view. Our Tumbling feature removes winning symbols and drops fresh ones into place, creating consecutive payouts from a single spin. The HTML5 build scales smoothly from desktop monitors to mobile screens, keeping controls and the paytable within easy reach.
RTP and Volatility
We operate Sweet Bonanza with a certified 96.51% return-to-player and high volatility. Players should anticipate quiet stretches broken by explosive Tumble chains. This profile suits bankrolls comfortable with swings in return for larger payout opportunities.
Core Features
Our pay-anywhere mechanic awards up to 50× stake when 8 to 12 or more symbols cluster. Tumbles cascade without limit until no fresh win appears. Landing 4, 5 or 6 lollipop scatters triggers 10 free spins plus an instant prize of 3×, 5× or 100× bet. During free spins, coloured bomb candies carry multipliers from 2× to 100× that combine and apply to the round total. Our Ante Bet option adds 25% to stake, doubling scatter frequency and lifting RTP to 96.58%. Maximum win reaches 21,100× bet, achievable only in free spins. Music, sound cues and smooth animations track every tumble and multiplier reveal, whether wagering €0.20 or the €125 ceiling common at licensed German operators.
How to Play
Set your bet
We've made betting straightforward. You can adjust your stake between €0.20 and €125 per spin using the minus and plus buttons. If you want better odds at triggering free spins, we offer an Ante Bet option that increases your stake by 25% while doubling your chances and raising the RTP from 96.48% to 96.51%. Some regions allow players to buy the bonus feature for 100 times their current stake, though this option isn't available if you're playing from Germany. We recommend checking the pay-table icon to review current payouts and rules before you start.
Symbols and wins
Fruit symbols like bananas, grapes, watermelons, plums and apples pay between 2 and 10 times your bet when you land 12 to 30 matching symbols. Candy symbols offer higher returns: blue candies pay 12×, green ones 15×, purple 25×, and red hearts give you 50× for the same number of hits. The Lollipop Scatter can appear anywhere on the reels and awards 3×, 5× or 100× your bet for 4, 5 or 6 scatters. Landing four or more scatters triggers 10 free spins.
Tumbles and round flow
Winning symbols explode after each win, allowing new icons to drop down. This creates chances for consecutive wins on a single spin until no new combinations form. You can press Spin for manual control or activate Autoplay with customizable loss and win limits. The game offers a maximum win of 21,175 times your stake with high volatility.
Game Variations
Sweet Bonanza Xmas
We bring the winter edition to our German players who want something seasonal. Sweet Bonanza Xmas transforms the candy world with snow, festive sounds, and a softer colour palette. The core mechanics remain unchanged, which means you can start playing without learning new rules.
Pragmatic Play released this version in 2019. It offers 96.48% RTP with a maximum win of 21,175× your stake. German players should note that Bonus Buy isn't available here, but free-spin multipliers can still reach 100×.
Sweet Bonanza Candyland Live
We also present Sweet Bonanza Candyland for those who prefer live gaming. A studio host spins a massive 54-segment money wheel streamed in real time, turning the slot experience into an interactive show. RTP varies between 91.59% and 96.95% depending on which segment you bet on. The game includes three bonus rounds: Sweet Spins, Candy Drop, and Sugar Bomb.
Local editions
German lobbies occasionally feature limited-time skins or promotional tournaments. We flag these when they're active so you can try a fresh visual style without affecting the game mathematics. These are visual reskins only, and all versions comply with the €1 stake cap.
Bonuses and Features
Free Spins
We've designed the free spins feature to activate when you land 4, 5, or 6 red-and-white lollipop Scatters. This awards 10 free spins along with an instant win of 3×, 5×, or 100× your stake. During this round, each additional set of 3 Scatters retriggers 5 more spins. The tumble mechanics stay active throughout, which means you can chain together unlimited consecutive wins in a single spin sequence.
Multiplier Bombs
Rainbow candy bombs appear exclusively during free spins, carrying multiplier values between 2× and 100×. Once the tumble sequence ends, we calculate the combined total of all visible bombs and apply that multiplier to your overall win. This mechanic can push single-spin payouts up to 21,100× your wager.
Ante Bet Option
Our Ante Bet increases your base stake by 25% and roughly doubles your chances of triggering free spins by adding extra Scatters to the reels. Pragmatic Play removes this feature in jurisdictions that restrict stake multipliers, so many German-licensed casinos show it as unavailable.
Bonus Buy
Outside Germany, players can purchase direct entry to free spins for 100× their bet. German regulations prohibit this, so we hide the button when operating under a .de licence.
- Initial Free-Spin RTP: 96.51%
- Ante Bet RTP: 96.52%
- Maximum Win Potential: 21,100× stake
License and Security
Our License in Germany
We work exclusively with Pragmatic Play to bring Sweet Bonanza to German players through casinos holding a valid §27i licence from the Gemeinsame Glücksspielbehörde der Länder. The German version follows the Interstate Treaty on Gambling 2021 requirements. This means a €1 maximum bet per spin, a 5-second delay between spins, no auto-play function, and real-time reporting to LUGAS. Every casino link we provide appears on the official GGL whitelist.
Fair Play and Data Safety
Gaming Laboratories International and iTech Labs audit the random number generator according to ISO/IEC 17025 standards. The RTP stands at 96.51% globally but adjusts to 95.02% in Germany due to wagering tax. We protect all traffic with 256-bit TLS 1.3 encryption. User data handling follows GDPR principles of purpose limitation and storage minimisation.
Player Protection
We enforce strict KYC and age verification through SCHUFA, BankID, or eID to confirm players are 18 or older. A cross-operator monthly deposit limit of €1,000 applies, though you can lower it anytime. Session reminders appear every 30 minutes with mandatory reality checks after 60 minutes. OASIS self-exclusion options range from 24 hours to permanent. AML screening meets German GwG and FATF standards. Our support team operates around the clock to adjust limits, activate timeouts, or close accounts instantly.
Deposit and Payout Methods
German-friendly payments
We process all transactions in EUR through providers that comply with the 2021 German Interstate Gambling Treaty (GlüStV 2021) and AML5 regulations. Our payment infrastructure meets the strict standards required for players in Germany.

Verification and limits
We require full KYC documentation—photo ID, proof of address, and banking source—within 72 hours of your first deposit or before any withdrawal. We charge zero fees on deposits and withdrawals.

FAQ
What is the minimum bet?
Pragmatic Play sets the default betting range at €0.20 to €125 per spin. While some operators might adjust the lower limit slightly upward, stakes cannot fall below €0.20. The Ante Bet option adds 25% to your base stake when activated.
How do I claim bonuses?
We recommend following this process at any licensed German casino. First, register your account and complete the mandatory KYC verification. Next, navigate to the promotions page and select a Sweet Bonanza offer. If a bonus code appears, enter it and opt in. Finally, make your deposit—usually €10 minimum—to activate the bonus. Remember that GlüStV 2021 imposes a €1 maximum bet rule, and wagering requirements around 30× typically apply.
Is the Bonus Buy available?
German regulations prohibit the 100× stake Bonus Buy feature. However, we can still access the 25% Ante Bet, which doubles your chances of triggering free spins naturally. Markets outside Germany see the Buy button displayed below the reels.
Can I play on mobile?
Absolutely. We built Sweet Bonanza in HTML5, so it performs well in Safari, Chrome, and Firefox across iOS and Android devices without requiring a download.
Is a free demo offered?
Pragmatic Play provides demo versions to partner sites. German law mandates age-verified login before accessing any demo session, even when using virtual credits.
