Is Bonanza worth playing?
Bonanza is the game that introduced the Megaways engine. Each of the six reels can show between two and seven symbols, so the number of ways to win changes every spin — up to 117,649 when all reels run at full height. A carriage reel above the grid adds four more positions.
Wins cascade: symbols in a winning combination vanish and new ones fall in, which can chain several times from one spin. In free spins the multiplier increases by one with every cascade and, crucially, does not reset between spins. A long free spin round is where every large result here comes from.
What to expect
- RTP 96% — verify the configuration in the game info panel.
- High volatility. Base game returns are thin between features.
- Unlimited multiplier during free spins, growing with each cascade.
Megaways has since been licensed to dozens of studios with widely varying RTP and volatility. Playing another Megaways title tells you nothing about its numbers — check each one individually.
