What is Sweet Bonanza Xmas?
Sweet Bonanza Xmas is a seasonal reskin of Sweet Bonanza by Pragmatic Play. The grid, the pay-anywhere rule, the tumble feature, the lollipop scatters and the multiplier bombs work as in the original. The changes are visual: a winter candy land, Christmas sweets and festive music.
Same rules, new wrapping
- Grid: 6 reels × 5 rows, wins for 8+ identical symbols anywhere.
- Tumbles: winning symbols disappear and new ones fall in.
- Free spins: 4+ scatters award 10 free spins; 3+ during the feature add 5 more.
- Multipliers: bombs from 2× to 100× during free spins, added together at the end of each tumble sequence.
- Optional features: Ante Bet and, where allowed, Buy Free Spins.
- Maximum win: 21,100× the bet, as in the original.
Because the maths is so close, everything in our guides to how to play, bonus features and RTP also applies here.
What to check before you play
Even when two games look like twins, settings can differ. Open the information panel and confirm three things: the RTP of this specific version, the maximum win in the rules, and whether Bonus Buy is offered in the UK. Casinos can run Sweet Bonanza Xmas with a different RTP configuration from the one they use for the original.
Why play the Xmas edition?
Mostly for variety. If you enjoy Sweet Bonanza and want a seasonal look, the Xmas edition gives you exactly the same experience in new colours. It is not luckier and does not pay more around the holidays: a random number generator has no calendar. Many casinos only feature it in their lobbies in December, but the game itself is usually available all year.
Free demo
Most licensed casinos and the provider’s demo lobby offer Sweet Bonanza Xmas in free play mode. If you want to compare it with the original, play both demos for the same number of spins and you will see how similar they are.
