Brick House Bonanza Slot Review
Craft your way to lavish wins and build a fortune in Pragmatic Play’s latest release, Brick House Bonanza!
Pragmatic Play brings to life the tale of the 3 Little Pigs in their latest 2025 release, Brick House Bonanza. Build your way towards big wins during the Random Awards feature, and try your luck in the Free Spins round.
Many software providers have taken inspiration from a number of popular children’s books, including Alice in Wonderland, Jack and the Beanstalk, and the 3 Little Pigs. This particular tale has been found in many slots but is more commonly associated with Quickspin’s Big Bad Wolf Megaways.
With its release date set for the 23rd January, will Brick House Bonanza make a welcoming addition to the Best Slots Sites and Pragmatic Play’s ever-expanding portfolio? Let’s play on and find out!
Base Game & Features
Brick House Bonanza is a highly volatile 5-reel, 3-row Video Slot with 243 ways to win and a variety of bet sizes. This game has a fixed max win cap of 10,000x your bet and an overall RTP of 96.50%. Wolf Wilds substitute for all symbols except Wheel and Scatter symbols, appearing only on reels 2-4.
Wins are generated when 3-5 matching symbols land from left to right, starting from the leftmost reel. Six card suit symbols make up the Low-paying symbols, awarding wins between 0.05x and 0.2x your bet. Alternatively, all High-paying symbols award payouts between 0.05x and 2x your bet.
Random Awards
In the base game, a special Wheel symbol can appear on all reels during any spin. Landing 3 or more Wheel symbols will trigger the Random Awards Feature. Once active, a number of active Features and Prizes are present on the wheel – these include:
- Mega Bank Feature: This feature activates a big 2×2, 3×3, 3×5, or two 2×2 Scatter symbols that may appear on the reels. This causes the Free Spins round to instantly trigger, starting with markers based on all positions covered by the big Scatter symbol.
- Windmill Feature: The wheel bonus that triggers this feature rolls towards the right edge of the reel set, leaving behind a trail of marks. After this, the Free Spins round is awarded with those same marks in position.
- Brick House Feature: Once active, the wheel bonus transforms into special Brick Marks, causing the Free Spins round to trigger. During Free Spins, all new Scatters that hit will also have their positions marked.
- Jackpot Prizes: Awards the Mini (12x your bet), Minor (60x your bet), Major (500x your bet), or Grand (5,000x your bet) Jackpot prize at random.
Bonus Buy
- Free Spins: Triggers the Free Spins round with 6-15 Scatter symbols (100x your bet)
- Bonus Wheel: Instantly triggers the Bonus Wheel feature, guaranteeing 1 of 4 Features (200x your bet)
Free Spins
Landing 6 or more Piggy Scatters in the base game triggers the Free Spins round, awarding 6 Free Spins. At the start of the round, all scatter symbol positions are marked with a Square made of straw.
Whenever a Scatter symbol lands within a marked position, it will be automatically upgraded to Wood, followed by Brick. When a Scatter falls into a position marked with brick, a random position will be upgraded to the next available marking.
Should a Scatter appear when all 10 positions are marked with brick, an additional 10x your bet is awarded. Please note, that all marked positions remain in view until the end of the round.
When the Free Spins round is complete, each marked position transforms into a House, causing a Wolf animation to occur. The Wolf will blow the houses down to reveal a random value for each type of house:
- Straw Houses: Award between 0.6x and 1.5x your bet
- Wood Houses: Award between 2x and 6x your bet, as well as the Mini and Minor Jackpots
- Brick Houses: Award between 10x and 250x your bet, as well as the Mini, Minor, Major, and Grand Jackpots
In Free Spins, landing 3 or more Scatters awards an additional +1 Free Spin.
Our Verdict
Pragmatic Play released a steady flow of entertaining and rewarding titles last year, so we expected to see more of the same in the new year. Brick House Bonanza isn’t exactly an A-list title from Pragmatic, and in many ways, feels more like a Light & Wonder or Games Global addition than anything else.
It’s not all bad news though! Thanks to the game’s Random Awards feature, players can regularly access the Free Spins round, which is kitted out with an individual Windmill, Mega Bank, or Brick House mechanic. As well as these additions, you may also walk away with 1 of 4 Jackpot Prizes in tow.
In other areas, Brick House Bonanza looks great on paper. Pragmatic Play has facilitated a High Volatility ranking, as well as an overall RTP of 96.50% and a sizable max win cap of 10,000x your bet. This figure is much more impressive than the bog-standard 5,000x that Pragmatic Play usually aims for, but is Brick House Bonanza capable of such a figure? Why not give it a few spins and see for yourselves?
