New Slot Announcement Bonanza by Big Time Gaming

[TheAddict]

An army of 500 pissed off players have managed to find their way here after typing into a search engine "Christmas bonanza rigged"

 

[TheSchwad]

Same poor bonuses, but I've actually come away happy, cos managed three bonuses, ooh how expectations have dropped lost 250x stake but had some playtime and a 'little' entertainment, its all you can ask for these days.

Was playing the demo - feature buy. If its any consolation, the first 15 features didn't even hit 50x. Diabolical.

Been playing Bonanza again the last few months. Am I imagining things or am I seeing a clear pattern in the way bonuses are triggered?
The way it triggers
Session A - all bonuses are triggered by a cascade D drop, no straight GOLD drops
Session B - all bonuses are triggered by a straight GOLD drop, no cascade drop triggers
Session C - all bonuses are triggered by a cascade L + D drop
Session D - all bonuses are triggered by a cascade D + 5 drop

The amount it pays
all bonuses 10-30x (frequent bonusing) - in one session I had six straight bonuses that paid roughly 20x
all bonuses around the 200x mark

Had several decent base game hits as well, one which was 820x (reds MMs) which is the highest base game hit I ever gotten ever since the game was launched. Still a very frustrating game, almost completely lost it with all the 20x bonuses ?

 

[goatwack]

It's the kind of game that's managed to pull the wool over punters' eyes, in thinking that the bonuses are what drives this game, when ultimately, the best hits traditionally come from the base game.

Yet as with most slots, it's the bonus players clamour for, even if they know beforehand they'll be substandard. And it's not by accident, it's just fiendish design, the visual pursuit and satisfaction of seeing 'gold' symbols akimbo. Even that death-jangle renews each new spin, causing an almost trance-like drive to keep going.

But Bonanza bonuses, as anyone that's played the game to any considerable degree will attest to, are merely a smokescreen to renumerate the player's (no doubt) considerate losses, and not worth chasing. Sure, no one plays slots of this variance simply to enjoy the base game, but that's pretty much all Bonanza has going for it. Well, that and the quarterly game 'updates' ?

 

[nuera007]

The Christmas version also have Bonus Buy button for x90 stake

Why do i remember that somewhere was OG bonanza with bonus buys and it was 12€ @min bet?

 

[megadam]

Yeah this version is even more shocking than the original if that were possible. Absolutely ruined my 400x in the blink of an eye, two quite frankly appalling features one of which re-triggered and went for less than 15x.

Then I decided to play on the crypto sites and decided to bonus buy............big mistake.

Absolutely spot on. I’ve played this game a lot and don’t really post any wins here or comment. You used to get decent playtime out of it, but it’s poor these days. I’ve seen some cracking wins, but I’m lucky to hit 50x these days. I’ve had +5 once in all my sessions. There are better games out there these days

 

[hogexd]

Has anyone actually managed to hit a decent bonus yet on the Christmas version of Bonanza? I bought one and it was awful, and tried to hit one through playing for 500 spins, but nada.

 

[aceking123]

Why do you players keep trying to flog a dead horse, it's shite, it always has been, it was OK for grinding but even that seems to of gone, maybe people are seeing the light, all these pages of ..........

Well to put it into context the game is gimped it shall never reach its so called full potential because clearly its been capped to hell, they just won't tell you the truth.

Move on there's better games available.......

nahh did about 300 spins today but nothing couple if teasers thats it, moved over to the regular bonanza hit free spins on my
30th spin paid 150x did another 100 spins but moved on to other adventures after that

 

[slot_zombie]

I had to put over 1000 spins through the Christmas one to see the bonus which paid 52x. Never saw a single big win in the base during that time.

I noticed it seems a lot smoother and faster than the original (on the crypto casinos at least..). You can no longer tell if a win is coming by the delay in the trucks appearing up top.

 

[Luckyscouser45]

Xmas version is a complete abomination. And the stupid cheap ass looking snow that goes across the screen is a complete eye sore and annoyance. Btg are a dying studio

Same here. It teased me like every 30-40th spin but never landed the D as usual

Thats all my losses on lottomart bonanza hahahaha. Was it base game or bonus?

 

[pinnit2014]

Looks like a base game hit - i hit a 5500x so, rudimentary maths, looks fairly close to my own record on it. Must be tier capped

Despite playing at the Crypto's i've not even tried a Bonus Buy on their Christmas one - 90x is x2 what it should be and feels sort of wrong - plus the visuals are horrific. Only BTG BB i play offshore is White Rabbit.

Lottomart's Bonanza (yes, i know they're all the same...or...) always gives me a fair crack in terms of gameplay (though not played there for a month or so): take 300 off, give 250 back, 400 off, 500 back etc

I was wondering about that.
I know 100x has been thrown around as being the bonus average win, did that number come from BTG or is it just a guess?
If the average is 100x offering the bonus-buy for 90x wouldnt exactly make them any money.

Yes, was a shitload of rubies after 5 fell in on the middle reel after an initial win of 9's. Think it was something mad like £1080 on the hit, i looked down to see what the win was worth praying it would be at least 60 or 70 quid..... ? ? ? ?
£900 withdrawn and in my bank already, fairplay to Lotttomart, no crap at all when you withdraw.

Might have been Slottracker but pretty sure BTG said as well? (then again, also sure Nik said 117k MW's was available in the bonus)

I don't think it's been near to 100x for a while, maybe once when it gave a splattering more of 300-500x's, not sure.

If there is one thing I think we can all agree on, it’s don’t believe everything that comes out of that blokes mouth. Numerous amounts of bullshit has emanated from that vicinity.

However young kroffe you are forgetting that in ‘normal’ play you will get the odd plus 5 and occasional more scatters every leap year. Hence why the bonus buy is maybe a tad lower than 100x

Fair enough, i assumed you had a chance of getting extra scatters when buying the bonus.
I have this vague memory of getting a +4 when i bought a Extra chilli bonus a million years ago, but i might be remembering wrong.

Edit: Checked the game just now and it does say that its 12 spins you can buy, so probably no chance of extra scatters (apart from retriggers)

 

[toms596]

Scatters don't drop in on bonanza bonus buys the bonus just starts but they do in extra chilli

 

[Kroffe]

Yeah, i assumed it worked the same as the Extra chilli bonus buy.
But now that i think about it, in their latest releases the bonus buy have sent you straight to the bonus without any scatters dropping in.

Yea they work differently in Bonanza and Extra chilli. I’ve gotten 3 x +4 on Extra Chilli a few times

 

[pinnit2014]

Tried the new Christmas one - find it hard to see if wins are there as the colours are a bit much, esp with the snowflakes

Probably said already, that it heartbeats for a plus 5. Probably the most innovative thing about it - though, better than some of the PP games where they just decided to put a Xmas hat on some of the symbols.

 

[megadam]

The christmas one ripped 500x off of me last night harder than that Wanted Dead or a Wild Hacksaw game. 3OAK barely seen, 2 Ls in the entirety of that. It's got to surely owe me at some point.......right??? RIGHT??? Haha.

 

[gonzo fonso]

Well i got very lucky last night,put £100 in william hill i never really play there but running out of places to play now,started at 80p and got a bonus of 200x then went £2 and got one for about 75x so i thought go £4 you never know,got up to about £450 and thought should i withdrawl kept playing as you do bonus dropped,last 2 spins was on 14x multiplier diamonds came in and payed about 1000x,was about 3 4 years ago since i last had 1000x yes im in shock its money back from the last 8 months,money was there this morning

It always gives 4 scatters for buys. It does often retrigger through.

Hard to get a good balance to get up to play 4 quids, let alone bonus on the stake

Not really had a chance to roll on 4's for a while now: most prolonged sessions were a few years ago when Betat used to send 200% deposit offers and you'd get a good run on it on high stakes. Not as good as Casumo's 4 quider's, but not far off.

Get well in. Very nice

 

[TheSchwad]

Was playing 2-up Christmas Bonanza (cos who wants to wait for a bonus and cos I'm a glutton for punishment), it rolled in 17 Spins on both at the same time. A straight GOLD roll-in, one cascade and a+5 drop. Had this before with BTG playing 3 up Wild Flower and all 3 rolled-in free spins at the same time. Most likely just a complete coincidence, but still a bit strange, does the RNG server throw up chunks of bonuses?

Anyway, 3 bonuses all paying 100x in the space of a few minutes, it must be close to Christmas ? why does it have to give nothing for the last few spins on all bonuses

that is very true,its rare like hens teeth,i could have carried on and gone to £5 or even £10 spins,but no ive been stung before

 

[Deeisherexx]

Has anyone ever seen Gold land when there was no letters on the board before the cascades ?

Yup loads of times

 

[Jono777]

Has anyone ever seen Gold land when there was no letters on the board before the cascades ?

Had it once, small win, cascade brought all 4 scatters.

Thought it rare....

The final result was far from rare

 

[pinnit2014]

Yeah, had it a few times before, also getting GOLD spelling out on the same column - you'd think they're programme such a rarity with an ultra rare 2000x etc. But nah, standard 30x

 

[bianchini82]

Has anyone ever seen Gold land when there was no letters on the board before the cascades ?

never.
many times 'O.L.D.'
