Slingo Sweet Bonanza Game Review

The popular Pragmatic Play grid slot, Sweet Bonanza, seems like a good fit for the Slingo format, and the candy land visual presentation has been carried over nicely. You get 10 spins per round in this installment, but you can pay for extra spins after that, as usual. The aim is to climb the slingo prize ladder seen on the left-hand side, and you get several special symbols to help you out in that regard.

If you’ve tried the slot/bingo hybrid format before, you know more or less what to expect. You win smaller cash prizes for completing slingos on the 5x5 grid, and what varies between installments is usually the top-tier prizes that come in the form of slot-inspired bonus features. In the case of Slingo Sweet Bonanza, it’s all about the Bonus Bomb Pick ‘Em Game, which can award total prizes up to 1,600x your stake.

Slingo Sweet Bonanza Features

Per usual, the gameplay is all about matching numbers (1-90) from the 5x1 reel set with the random numbers you get per round on the 5x5 slingo grid. You have 10 spins per round to do just that, and you can also pay for extra spins. These come with individually calculated price tags, depending on how high on the Slingo Prize ladder you’ve climbed.

Each completed slingo (horizontally, vertically and diagonally marked off lines on the 5x5 grid) takes you one step up the prize ladder, and 3 to 7 slingos awards 1 to 25 x your stake in cash prizes.

Getting 8 to 10 slingos, or a Full House, gives you 2 or 4 Bonus Bomb picks, with an x2 or x4 multiplier for the 2 top positions on the ladder.

Certain special symbols can land on the 5x1 slot below the 5x5 slingo grid, and these are as follows:

• Wild - allows you to mark off any number on the column above.
• Super Wild - allows you to mark off any number on the 5x5 grid.
• Free Spin - adds 1 extra spin to your tally.
• X - is a blocker symbol that does nothing.
• Bonus Bomb - landing 3, 4 or 5 in view gives you 2 bonus bomb picks, or 4 picks with an x2 or x4 multiplier, respectively.

The Bonus Bomb Pick ‘em Game is all about picking 1 of 4 Bombs to reveal cash prizes up to 100x per bomb. The cash prize is then multiplied if you also achieved a multiplier, making 400x your stake the most you can hope for from a single bomb. The 100x top prize is not necessarily present in all the picks you get however, and you can get extra Bonus Bomb picks by revealing a Lollipop in the post-feature pick ‘em game.

The 200 Spins Slingo Sweet Bonanza Experience

We managed to get 2 slingos from the 10 spins round, so we had no choice but to pay for extra spins to get to the bonus bomb pick ‘em game. We paid a total of 334x our stake to take it to the end of the line, and this awarded 4 picks with an x4 multiplier. You can see for yourself whether or not we ended up in profit by hitting the play button below.

Review Summary

The original Sweet Bonanza doesn’t contain any pick ‘em games, but the candy bomb does come with a multiplier up to x100 in the bonus round.

This Slingo version has certainly nailed the visual presentation, but if you want a massive potential you’ll have to go for the original. Slingo is a cozy bingo/slot hybrid after all, and it’s more for relaxation than hardcore high risk/reward gambling.

There is hardly anything new to see here for those familiar with the concept, and you’ll have to rely largely on paid extra spins to get anywhere, as usual. The Bonus Bomb Pick Game provides a decent enough climax, and we like that you can trigger the feature at any given time by landing bomb scatters. Fans of the slot version get a nice warm-up (or wind-down) game with Slingo Sweet Bonanza, but it’s hardly for people trying to avoid sweets and candy in their diet.

Pros

• Wilds, Super Wilds and Extra Spins
• Bonus Bomb Pick ‘em Game
• Win up to 1,600x your stake

Cons

• You’re pretty dependent on paid extra spins
• The RTP decreases to 95.08 % (at best) in paid extra spins mode

If you appreciate Slingo Sweet Bonanza you should also try:

Sweet Bonanza - is the highly successful and popular Pragmatic Play original release, and it comes with a similarly sugar-laden theme. This is a cluster pays grid slot, and the bonus round is all about the candy bomb multiplier that can lead to payouts up to 21,000x your stake.

Slingo Starburst - is another Slingo release based around a popular video slot, and this iconic NetEnt game is captured perfectly in the Starburst Win Spins feature you get from the top-tier positions on the slingo prize ladder. You get expanding wild respins in other words, and you can win up to 1,500x your stake.

Book of Slingo - is a Slingo Originals release based around the ‘Book of’ mechanic concept made popular by Play’n Go’s infamous Book of Dead. Climb to the top of the slingo prize ladder, and you’re guaranteed the top-tier symbol as the chosen expanding symbol in the bonus round that ensues.
