Match anywhere
The supplier describes wins from eight to twelve or more matching symbols anywhere on the grid, rather than fixed paylines. Winning symbols disappear and replacements tumble in, so one paid spin can include successive evaluations.
Free-spin trigger
Four to six scatter symbols can launch ten free spins under the supplier’s original Sweet Bonanza description. This is not the same game as newer titles such as Sweet Bonanza 2500 or Super Scatter.
Multiplier symbols
During the feature, multiplier symbols can show values from 2× to 100×. Their values are added at the end of an eligible tumbling sequence and applied under the game rules. Seeing a multiplier on screen alone does not guarantee a particular return.
Version and jurisdiction
Read the operator’s in-game paytable for the actual approved Great Britain version and the current stake limit. Our illustration explains mechanics and does not reproduce the game screen.
Addition before multiplication: an example
Worked mechanics example
Take a deliberately simplified winning tumble sequence worth £0.50 before multipliers. If eligible multiplier symbols show 2× and 5×, adding their values produces 7×; applying that to the illustrative win gives £3.50. Multiplying 2 by 5 instead would give a different answer and would misunderstand this rule. The example supplies no probability of getting those symbols.
The eight-symbol threshold is also different from a cluster requirement. Eight matching symbols spread over the grid can qualify even if they are not touching. By contrast, Jammin’ Jars uses connected fruit clusters, so its visually similar fruit imagery should not lead you to count a Sweet Bonanza result the same way.
Gates of Olympus is another tumble game, but its free-spin multiplier has its own accumulation rule. Do not transfer that persistent feature total into this article’s original Sweet Bonanza calculation. Identify the edition before comparing either RTP or bonus contribution rules.
