Dice Bonanza Slot Review — BGaming

Dice Bonanza is a video slot from BGaming, released into general availability on 27 July 2023, built on a 6-reel, 5-row grid where wins pay through a Pays Anywhere system instead of fixed lines. A payout needs at least eight matching symbols anywhere on the grid, and a cascading Refilling mechanic removes winning symbols and drops new ones from above, so a single spin can chain through several payouts in sequence. BGaming operates under a Malta Gaming Authority B2B licence, MGA/B2B/785/2020, issued 18 March 2021.

Core Gameplay Experience

Dice Bonanza’s grid spans six reels and five rows, giving the Pays Anywhere system more room to assemble a payout than a smaller board would allow. A win needs at least eight matching symbols anywhere on the grid, so the payout depends on the total count of a symbol rather than where it lands in a row or column.

The game’s visual presentation sits on a brown-toned table reminiscent of a craps layout, with three-dimensional dice carrying numeric pips alongside card-suit motifs among the rest of the symbol set, placing it within the same Cards & Casino themed slots group on this catalogue. Despite the craps-style backdrop, Dice Bonanza runs its own video-slot rules rather than reproducing the dice game of craps.

Features and Mechanics

Refilling is the cascade mechanic that drives the base game of Dice Bonanza: after a payout, the winning symbols clear from the grid, the remaining symbols drop down, and new symbols fall in from above to fill the empty spaces.

Free Spins trigger on Scatter symbols that can land on any reel: four Scatters award 10 free spins, five award 20, and six award 30. Landing three or more Scatters during the Free Spins round itself adds 5 extra free spins, extending the bonus round past its original allocation.

Multiplier symbols appear only during Free Spins, each carrying a random value between x2 and x100. Several Multiplier symbols can land and stay on the grid across a Refilling sequence; their values are summed, and the resulting total is applied to the win produced by that cascade sequence once it ends, so a cascade with multiple Multiplier symbols can scale a win well beyond any single x2–x100 value.

Bonus Buy opens the Free Spins round directly instead of waiting for Scatters to land naturally, at a cost that is approximately 100 times the current stake; the interface figure updates with the stake and can vary by casino version. A separate Bonus Bet mechanic, Chance x2, raises the cost of a base-game spin in exchange for a better chance of triggering Free Spins naturally, and it switches off automatically whenever Bonus Buy is active.

RTP, Volatility and Payout Model

Dice Bonanza carries a theoretical return to player of 95.97%, as published by BGaming, paired with a high volatility rating. The 95.97% base figure is the one to treat as the headline number, and which configuration actually runs depends on the casino where the game is installed.

A high-volatility payout model built around a 15,000x maximum win behaves differently from an evenly-paying game: individual spins frequently return nothing or a fraction of the stake, while much of the theoretical return is concentrated in the less frequent Free Spins round and its Multiplier-driven cascades. With a minimum stake of 0.2 and a maximum of 50, the reward on this model tends to arrive in occasional larger hits rather than a steady stream of small wins.

Similar Dice Slots — Comparison

All three games build their wins on cascading, falling-symbol reels, and the RTP gap between them is small: Sugar Rush Dice and Sweet Bonanza Dice both carry a 96.5% RTP against Dice Bonanza’s 95.97%, a theoretical difference of about $0.53 per $100 wagered. Mechanically, Dice Bonanza pays through Pays Anywhere rather than the Cluster Pays rules used by Sugar Rush Dice and Sweet Bonanza Dice, and it is the only one of the three with a direct Bonus Buy entry into Free Spins. Among the three, Sweet Bonanza Dice has the highest maximum win at 21,100x and runs at medium volatility, Dice Bonanza caps at 15,000x at high volatility, and Sugar Rush Dice caps at 5,000x also at high volatility — a spread that says nothing about how often any of the three actually pays. A player who wants to skip the scatter wait and pay for direct entry into the bonus round is better served by Dice Bonanza’s Bonus Buy, while one aiming for a 21,100x ceiling instead of 15,000x, and willing to trade high volatility for medium, fits Sweet Bonanza Dice better.

How to Play Dice Bonanza Online

Dice Bonanza’s demo mode lets a player run the Pays Anywhere grid and the Refilling cascade without staking real money, which is a direct way to see how Multiplier symbols stack during Free Spins before committing a bankroll.

As of 10 November 2026, 134 casinos carry BGaming slots and casinos, including VerdeCasino, HitnSpin and FieryPlay. Choosing between them comes down to licensing and how the lobby lists the game’s RTP configuration, since BGaming leaves the choice of RTP version, and where offered, Bonus Buy availability, to the operator. Other high-volatility entries sit in the Slots category, and details on how volatility and RTP are weighed are set out in the review-rating methodology.

Verdict on Dice Bonanza

Dice Bonanza is a high-volatility cascading slot built around a Pays Anywhere payout system, a Scatter-triggered Free Spins round that can reach 30 initial spins, and Multiplier symbols that can sum to large swings once a cascade sequence is underway. That combination suits a player who accepts stretches of low or no return in exchange for a shot at the 15,000x ceiling, and who sets a stake size, from the 0.2 minimum upward, that can sustain a run of empty spins. It is a weaker fit for a player who wants frequent, smaller wins or a payout model with less swing between spins, since the high-volatility design concentrates return in the bonus round rather than spreading it evenly across the base game.
