Candy Wild Bonanza series
Few candy franchises occupy the high-volatility bonus niche as deliberately as StakeLogic's Candy Wild Bonanza line, which uses candy visuals to carry three different reward engines. The range moves between Megaways free spins, a pay-anywhere collection bonus and a revised Megaways setup rather than repeating one sequel formula.

How Candy Wild Bonanza changes its bonus engine
The releases separate cleanly by where they place the pressure:
- Candyways Bonanza Megaways 2 uses a 6x7 grid with 117,649 ways, cascades, wild multipliers and selectable free-spin modes. Its 30,000x maximum is the line's broadest disclosed ceiling.
- Candy Wild Bonanza replaces Megaways with a 6x5 pay-anywhere format. Respins, hold-and-win play and a cash collector shift the focus from free-spin escalation to collecting bonus value, with a 20,000x maximum.
- Candyways Bonanza 3 returns to 117,649 ways on a 6x6 grid. Free-spin multipliers, random multipliers and mystery symbols retain the cascading Megaways identity while holding the ceiling at 20,000x.
Candy Wild Bonanza therefore functions as a mechanic-testing line inside the candy subgenre. One branch favors configurable free spins and wild multiplication, the middle game pivots to collection and respins, and the final entry restores Megaways with a tighter ceiling. The shared theme reduces the learning burden, but the bonus architecture determines how each version actually plays.
