Starcasino Bonanza Slot by Pragmatic Play

Four Jackpots on Top of Sweet Bonanza

Starcasino Bonanza adds a layer that standard Sweet Bonanza doesn't have: four simultaneous progressive jackpots labeled Grand, Mega, Major, and Minor. The base slot underneath is the same 6x5 scatter pay game PP has cloned across multiple casino brands - identical RTP at 96.51%, identical paytable, identical tumble and multiplier mechanics. The jackpots are what set this version apart.

At the end of any base game spin, a jackpot round can trigger at random. Higher bets increase the odds. When it fires, you enter a bonus screen and pick items one at a time until three reveal the same jackpot label. Match three Grand symbols and you take home the Grand progressive. The pool amounts fluctuate since a portion of every bet feeds into them, so the total potential shifts with each spin across all players.

The Jackpot Numbers

The splash screen claims wins over 21,100x bet are possible, which combines the base game's 4,986x cap with jackpot payouts. That 21,100x figure assumes you hit the Grand jackpot at peak value on top of a strong base game win. Realistic? Technically possible. Likely? The jackpot triggers randomly, and Grand is the rarest tier by design.

One important restriction: jackpots only trigger during base game spins, not during free spins. If you're deep in a bonus round stacking multipliers, the progressive pools are off the table until you return to the base game. This creates an odd tension - your highest per-spin wins happen in free spins, but the jackpot layer only activates in the lower-variance base game.

Scatter Pays and Tumble System

Eight or more matching symbols anywhere on the 30-position grid triggers a win. No paylines, no adjacency needed. Nine regular symbols range from 5 coins (8 matching low symbols) up to 1,000 coins (11+ of the top symbol). After each win, winning symbols disappear and new ones fall in. Tumbles continue until no new wins form.

Multipliers in Free Spins

Four or more scatter symbols trigger 10 free spins. The ante bet option (25% extra cost) doubles your scatter landing rate if you want to chase the trigger more aggressively. Inside the bonus, multiplier symbols appear with random values from a 13-step scale: 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 6x, 8x, 10x, 12x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 50x, up to 100x. When a tumble sequence ends, all multiplier values on screen add together and apply to the total win from that sequence.

Three or more scatters during free spins add 5 more spins each time. The buy bonus at 100x bet skips straight to 10 free spins but locks out if you have the ante bet active.

The Belgian Casino Connection

Starcasino is a licensed Belgian and Dutch online casino that partnered with Pragmatic Play for exclusive branded content. This game exists alongside near-identical variants branded for Snabbare (Sweden) and Stoiximan (Greece). If you play at Starcasino, this is your version of Sweet Bonanza. If you don't, the standard Sweet Bonanza or Sweet Bonanza 1000 offers the same core experience without the progressive jackpot layer - and without the per-bet jackpot contribution eating into your base game returns.
