Bonanza is a 6 reel slots game that is 3 symbols high. However, the number of symbols that make up a reel can change at random, with the potential for each reel to contain 7 symbols. The game does not use traditional paylines, instead it operates with a maximum of 117,649 different possible “megaways”, playing from left to right.

Carts – Above the reels there is an additional set of symbols that sit inside a traditional mining cart. This adds a symbol above reels 2, 3, 4 and 5 to help create additional wins.

Special Symbols

Wild – The Wild symbol is the “Dynamite”, which will substitute for all symbols other than Scatters.

Scatters – The “Gold” symbols are Scatters. To trigger the game’s Free Spins feature you need to spell out “G”, “O”, “L”, “D”, across the reels, with the Scatter symbols. When you do so you will be granted 12 Free Spins with 5 additional Free Spins for every extra Scatter symbol that you land.
