bonanza clone

[brianmon]

Anyone know if the maths and the pays will be the same as Bonanza ?

I only ask because Blueprint slots don't usually payout more than 1000x.

The thing that makes me wonder about the maths, is that Jackpotjoy have added it to their games.
Jackpotjoy are not particularly known for having high variance, high paying games.
They cater more for the low-medium variance players and the bingo grannys.
They have a few NetEnt games. But I doubt they'd ever add DOA, and I can't see them ever adding BTG slots.
So it seems strange that they've added this, IF it is an exact clone of Bonanza.

Not alot wrong with jackpot joy .one fast paying bingo site. They also have book of ra. Once you hit VIP level you get some nice perks in box bonanza. Some games are pretty bad but payments are great a underrated place imho.

I'm in no way knocking Jackpotjoy. I was just pointing out that if Diamond mine actually IS an exact copy of Bonanza, it doesn't fit their usual games profile.

Had about 20 bonuses on this now and not seen over 100x on it.
Twice this morning I had the barrells on every reel and they changed to tens.
Then they came in just on 4 reels, but not together and changed to diamonds to give me 2 x 4OAK diamonds, bloody typical

I tried this slot yesterday, I lost count how many spins i did, But it took me roughly at least 1500 spins to trigger the last free spins i got on this slot, So like bonanza your balance doesn't drop fast, One of the times i tried the slot i had done 400 spins and i was only down £10, I was doing 40p a spin, The TNT feature this slot has can be really annoying, It probably will not change to symbol you want, Twice i had plenty of diamonds and TNT on the reels but would the TNT change to diamonds no, Actually this feature didn't give me any big wins.

When i first went on the slot, the free spins triggered within the first 100 spins, The second i tried the slot they triggered in the first 10 spins, Then all the free spins after that took 500 + spins to trigger, I had at 3 free spins after the first 2 , The free spins didn't pay much the best i got was just short of 100x and the others paid like 10 - 20 x, In all the free spins the multiplier never once got to x 10, I would say i did 2000 - 3000 spins in total, This wasn't all at once i would play get a bonus and come off, Except from the last bonus where i did 500 spins and come off and go back on and i did this about 3 - 4 time to trigger the last bonus because it wasn't starting to bore and annoy me.

No i won't be playing it again.

It's fair to say over prolonged play that it looks better than Bonanza, and who doesn't love the slo-mo, but plays worse somehow. Yet to get anything significant on the bonuses (when they decide to eventually show up for a cameo) whereas Bonanza at least, for all its horrendous faults, occasionally gives something back.....

Must be me but its been pouring wins for me since i started playing. 10 depos with 9 resulting with WD been at least x15 the staring amount. with many bonus hits running around the x350 plus mark.

Only thing i will say is does it drop more than 4 gold bags and do the retrigger work as i have not seen it yet

 

[ReggieMac]

Well I must say it can certainly pay like Bonanza! My best multiplier win by far 2732x!!!!

Yes and yes.
Had the + 5 Gold and had a retrigger (not on same bonus)
And still not had over 100x on it.

It does bring the bonus in for me more than Bonanza though, but wheres my bloody 100x

Got destroyed again, losing $50 + a $40 bonus quickly. Haven’t hit a bonus in over 1400 spins.

Think I’ll wait until VS adds it before I try it again. Caddell casinos take forever to approve withdrawls and deposit them to my account and charge $36 for it. VS often pays me the next day and there’s no fee. Do the math.

I've played it four times now and had 4 features [0,2,1,1], and the free spins have all been the basic 12, I have won 25x, 50x and 150x twice. It doesn't seem to do the scatter tease as much as bonanza and I have only seen the 117649 megaways once. I think its probably slightly lower variance than bonanza and overall seems to play quicker which is a plus.

But this has a cap on wins of 250,000 or 5000x (max bet is 50). For this to be legal the TRTP on wins over 5000x must be less than 0.005% (or something like that).
Are the maths the same with Bonanza?

IMHO this is far superior to bonanza just because it runs smoother. Nothing annoys me more than already knowing the next cascade wont be a win on bonanza because it takes to long/lags to much.
Plus the barrels add a little bit excitement even if its low symbols most of the time.

Played like 2000spins and and got like 8 features if i remember correct. Lowest was around 50x highest 300x.

Bonanza runs fine at some casinos. If you are in the UK try it on SkyVegas for example, its like a different game.

Any idea when this goes live everywhere?

played it again at coral last night, it took two lots of £50 at 20p stake and gave me a single 10x bonus, to play this bad makes me feel the variance is high overall and very similar to bonanza.

the exploding barrels were absent for a long time, and if you think about them there not really an extra bonus feature, its just barrels covering a symbol that could roll in any time.

It ways worse then bonanza.

played it at ladbrokes last night and got a bonus within 40 spins and it paid 40x, the four gold bags came straight in on the spin rather than a cascade. It doesn't seem to do GOL drop downs half as much as bonanza, everytime i've played diamond mine there seems to be very little room for a gold scatter to drop into whereas on bonanza you regularly get half the screen available only for the 1 scatter required not to appear.

Then I played bonanza and also got an early bonus which payed 200x, so I'm not sure about diamond mine maybe the big wins on it are even more elusive than bonanza. This would fit blueprint as I've never seen a 1000x win on any of their games.

played it on WH today. Started with $57 on 40c bets. no bonuses, one win of over 5x and next single biggest hit was 3.4x

not impressed really, for what its worth i never had such a bad run on bonanza. Maybe it is a tad higher variance and im ok with that but i really dont like exploding barrels thingy because not even once it changed to something remotely useful. It usually changes to either whatever gives the lowest pay (if wilds are up) or it changes to symbol that gives no win at all. Its not different to tons of "almost" hits bonanza has, this one just annoys me much more

 

[ReggieMac]

Man, the longer I follow this thread the more I realise just how much of a rarity my huge hit on Diamond Mine actually was! I had my hit at Royal Panda so I must have emptied the coffers for this game! As Royal Panda is the ONLY casino I allow myself to play at now then I had better this game well alone.

No, VS has the cap on 2,500x bet win! That means, the chance for any win over 2,500x is so small that it doesn't affect the RTP, otherwise what VS does would be illegal.
