Topic: Sweet Bonanza vs Gates of Olympus (Read 545 times)

I don't know what's going on with Sweet Bonanza today, but I had to tear myself away after winning time and again...  I've legitimately never had so many gambling wins in my life as I have had this morning.  It felt like some sort of fluke.  I kept saying, "just one more." Then I'd win another 10 free spins...  I was winning multiple 5 free spins off those 10 free spins I got from a $0.20 bet.  I've honestly never seen anything like it in my life.  I now know what it feels like to have a hot hand I guess...  Anyone else play Sweet Bonanza today?

Exactly. And as games with high volatility there's not much logic in saying one pays more than the other.

If we were to compare a slots game in a bricks and mortar gambling shop, where RTP can be as low as 70%, then yes there would be a very sizable difference to compare. But over here we have differences of just single percentage points. There's no math that should prove one game is earning players more than the other, other than just anecdotal stories and luck. So in these cases I think it's perfectly reasonable to just go play which game you like the music and animation most. Nobody is going to judge anyone for playing something you consider pleasant. Yet people always talk about money as if we're playing slots to run a business.  

Makes sense, and also the fact that the majority of those who will vote in the poll, and also comment which of this games they think is the best, are gonna do it with sentiments attached.
And by sentiments, I mean their choice of which of this games is the best, is going to be purely based on which of this games theyve won the most from.
Like for example, I've played both sweet bonanza and gates of Olympus quite often, and if I were to really choose which is the best, it's gonna be purely based on which I've won the most from, which at the moment I can't even tell  , but I think I've won the most on sweet bonanza, though I also think I play this one way more often.

I don't think it's that much valuable of a discussion to see which one of these slots is better. The differences are going to be very marginal.

First of all, neither is provably fair, the RTP is nearly the same and the volatility is very high. So both of these are extremely similar.

Really for most people the decision which one to play is based on which one has the best animations for their preference and also which one has currently the best offers in the casino they play at. I suppose you should do the same OP unless you want to look into stats then find a provably fair slot and try to get the one with the lowest house edge or highest RTP.

Worse for you does not mean worse for others (including me), I play pragmatic games more than other providers but I have to say that pragmatic is one of the best providers.
What you say about algorithm, can it be proven or it is just based on your own assumption because of your bad experience?
Those who keep on playing pragamatic means that they do like it, as simply as what you do with Return of The Green Knight and its similar type Swords of the Grail (I'm not sure if it is the right name).

Pragmatic is one of the worse providers of slot machines and I never have understood why people keep playing their stupid slots.They use a common algorithm as far as I have seen and that algorithm is whenever you increase your bet considerably your money are gone in a very short amount of time,that has happened to me at least a hundred times playing their slots so that is why I say cannot really understand why their slots are popular among people when they should not be based on such happenings.

Now regarding these two games Sweet Bonanza has been hit a max win exactly at Stake many time before but every time Stake makes maintenance to their slots they start over the multipliers,I have won 11339x at Return of the Green Knight there,yet you will not see my name because of such maintenance,so Sweet Bonanza is better.

I don't have much budget to purchase Bonus Buy on the slot game so I just play as usual where I only use auto spin and wait for the outcomes. But if I have some more money, I will try to purchase Bonus Buy for 1 or 2 times to see how good my luck are but I don't force myself to always purchase Bonus Buy because I am not sure I can wins much money from that.

Playing slot game can makes us lose control, especially if we add big money in our gambling account. When we enjoy to purchase Bonus Buy, we may buy more and more to see when our luck comes. But that doesn't guarantee us to wins much money because wins slot game needs to have luck.

That's why we must be careful when playing slot games because that can makes us spends much money without we realizes, especially if we gets fun from slot games. We will not wants to stops our gambling activity and our curiosity will becomes bigger and makes us spend more and more money to wins the slot games. We must knows that if we don't have luck, we will difficult to wins the slot games.

We must control our budget not to used in one time because we only have fun in gambling and not makes money so we must manage our money and not lose much money. Using $10-$20 to playing slot games is enough for me and that can makes me gets 50 spins or more depends on how much bet I used. We must control ourselves and always be careful spends our money to playing slot games because there is a tendency to deposit more and more money, especially if we almost hit the big money.

I have bad experienced chasing the wins by purchase Bonus Buy and makes me lose a lot but then I realizes that I must stops immediately or I will lose much money. At least, we knows what we will do with our money when playing slot games and we will knows what slot games we want to play. We must take care of ourselves and not spends all of our money for one day because we already allocate the money to playing gambling.

That freaking Sweet Bonanza, I haven't made anything with that ever. It's almost always a loss for me when I play that. I haven't tried Gates of Olympus yet but I would try now because that's the most voted here. Maybe I could be lucky in a play or something, you'll never know.

This is subjective because it is based on the interests of each and the experience of each of the two games, I myself am very experienced from both so this will be subjective.

Maybe you don't like the graphics that are given even though both have differences, but for me I prefer Bonanza lately because it is a fruit game that is quite interesting when it explodes too, and when I get free spins I like to be surprised by the multiplication in it and it adds to my passion to get more multiplication there, talking about graphics is not so interesting but if you pay attention to the game it is very fun if you play a little longer.

The best? Of course it depends on each player's preferences because if the player doesn't like Gates of Olympus then Sweet Bonanza is the best but it could be that neither of them is the best because layers don't like both of them, even though liking it doesn't necessarily mean they are the best.
I prefer Sweet Bonanza but it's not the best in my opinion because it will be very difficult for you to get a high multiplier, mostly only small multipliers that appear over and over again and eventually your balance will be completely drained in this game.
Gates of Olympus might be a little different from Sweet Bonanza but I don't like the graphic appearance and the sound so I only play it occasionally, so choose another slot from the same provider.

Exactly, the slot games are required a luck for a win but there is a possibility for playing a game a bit and check if this game is paying good or not. Also, hitting a jackpot is requiring a huge luck because the possibility of hitting a jackpot is extremely low for all slot games and it’s not related with the amount wagered. For example, people who wagered 0.10$ per spin can also hit a jackpot while people who wagered 1$ per spin too.

For not using the entire deposit, of course, you need to control yourself. For example, if I’m going to spend 50$’s on slots, in general I deposit 10-20$’s first and trying to have fun with it. This can also help me a lot about not losing the whole budget in one deposit and I’m able to play in different times in a day or different days in a week. Also, this is blocking the big lose for a limited time.

About bonus buy, yes, some gamblers are choosing it because of multipliers for the winnings and sometimes this bonus buy can pay more than expected. Also, it may cause a huge loss as well because in most of the slot games, the bonus buy price is 100x expensive than one turn price. I’m also preferring to wager normal than buying bonus from a game because it’s not guarantee but with 100 spins of course the bonus will hit at least once in general (Talking this about myself, not guarantee luck for everyone).

In my case, I prefer to purchase bonus play in SB. With only 10 free spins, I get a multiplier than playing normal or auto spin. Though, it has a fast phase that's why you most likely forgot to control yourself when you use the bonus play. In that case, it's better if you try to build up your own strategy. Just like what I did, it also happened to me that I didn't control myself in slots as I continuously purchased the bonus play, which is incorrect. Doing this will only make you lose money so fast without realizing it. 

Even if you say that Gates of Olympus is easier to wins the money, that still needs luck to wins, especially we are playing slot game that depends on our luck. You can wins much money from slot with $0.10-$0.30 per spin and gets Scatter or Free Bonus Rounds and hit the jackpot. But that will not happens too many times as slot game needs luck to win. I don't wants to lose entire deposit because I am trying to limits my gambling activity so I can prevents the big lose.

Bonus Buy can be a help for some people so they still buy that and hopes they can hit the jackpot. But they must realizes that Bonus Buy can't always gives them big wins so they must be careful spends their money to Bonus Buy. I prefer to playing as normally and not use Bonus Buy because that can makes me lose much money. I can forget to control myself if I often use Bonus Buy.

I disagree with you because when we’re comparing the both, Gates of Olympus is much easier to win the money. However, I agree with you about winning with small amounts is not much possible because of the wager. For example, in another slot game I hit 1.865x in free spins with 0.20 Euros only and win around 373€’s. That’s amazing, but if I wager 1€ per spin and hit that it’s going to make more sense when we’re talking about the amount. I’m also trying to hit biggest jackpot with only wager per spin between 0.10-0.30€’s but I can control myself and lost maximum 20€’s per game. So, in this scenario if I lost the entire deposit, it’s not affecting me negatively.

If we are talking about bonus buy, yes, it’s funny and exciting but in general it’s not worth of it because in Sweet Bonanza or Gates of Olympus we’re paying 100x of the wager per spin. And, in this scenario bonus games are become stressful and if not good winnings are hit, we loss. Also, bonus buy is so expensive for having fun with it because we can spin 100 times for that money and have more fun with it.

Entering bonus round is useless if you still didn’t win any significant multiplier inside the bonus which is common on sweet bonanza while Gates sometime give an insane win if you are lucky enough to continuously accumulate multiplier until the end which you can’t experience on sweets.

I believe the only advantage of sweet bonanza is it’s very generous on multiplier per round but it’s very to match it with decent win to multiply it.

It’s very hard to determine what’s better in terms of profitability but Gates has a slight advantage due to the mechanics of it bonus game.

Maybe you are right that the chance of entering the free spins round in Sweet Bonanza is better than Gates of OIympus but if you see the result, Sweet Bonanza mostly give small multiplier only.
As I mentioned before, there is no chance for you to win big during normal spins on Sweet Bonanza because the multiplier symbols come on Free spins only.
Frankly, I dont understand why there are still many people play Sweet Bonanza while it is clear that this game give small chance to win big multiplier.

Based on multiple factors such as gameplay, interface, the look of the game, sounds, the frequency of bonus plays without buying feature, I would say Sweet Bonanza is better because I have played both, and I must say that it is pretty difficult to get free bonus feature in Gates of Olympus. You will exhaust your bankroll trying to get that bonus feature without having to buy it but you will barely get it in Gates of Olympus.

In Sweet Bonanza, it doesn't seem that hard. You start playing, you enjoy the gameplay and the sounds, and boom, you see the lollipops on your screen and you got a bonus round where you may get a good multiplier as well sometimes. I haven't gotten a lot of money from it, but I like it more, to be honest.

Yes, Sweet Bonanza players are OG’s in general and in general newbie’s are preferring Gates of Olympus. In my opinion, the reason for that is of course high winning possibilities. Also, when we’re comparing both, of course Gates of Olympus is better because saving the multiplier is helping a lot for hitting a jackpot. Plus, there is a lot’s of max winnings in the history for Gates of Olympus but nothing for Sweet Bonanza. Let’s invite Pragmatic Play for making new event and if anybody had a max winnings in Sweet Bonanza, they can provide an extra gift for that people 

In my opinion as well, Gates of Olympus is better for more max winning potential. That’s why, when I just need to hit a good winning in gambling I prefer Gates of Olympus but when I prefer fun but not aiming the huge winnings I played Sweet Bonanza.

I agree.

And your comparison is right about sweet bonanza and gates of olympus, I think that the majority likes to play more with gates of olympus and it's not just about the chance of hitting multipliers.

But the gameplay itself is more appealing than the sweet bonanza. Although we can't dislike any of them are they're fun to play and if you just casually wanna do any of them, they can easily be played with.

A lot of good comparisons are in here and the answers really varies a lot.

These are my most played slots and probably among all gamlers, the promotion and amount of videos about these two slots is very crazy. Any new gamler will choose sweet bonanza most of the time for many reasons, from promotion to animation and visual effects and simplicity to understand it.
When it comes to simplicity, good visual and sound effects, I would say most of people would easily pick sweet bonanza. However, the best slot between them when it comes to the payout, definitely Gates of olympus is more generous.

Sweet bonanza max win is never been reached, while Gates of olympus many people were lucky and got it after few or much trials. So personally I would go with the better generous slot which is Gates of Olympus.
