Fake version of "Sweet Bonanza" slot on sketchy casino?

[H0DL_King]

Played Sweet Bonanza on both Stake and some new site called "CryptoWins". Noticed spins/behavior feels completely different between sites despite same exact game look. On CryptoWins version, bonus rounds almost never hit and when they do, multipliers way smaller. Possible they're running bootleg version of Pragmatic's game? Anyone experienced this?

100% they're running fake/pirated version. legitimate casinos license directly from Pragmatic Play. sketchy sites use knockoffs with worse RTP

@CryPtoP4ws that explains it. Thought I was going crazy. how is this even legal? Game looks identical but clearly plays different

It's not legal lol. That's why these sites operate from random islands with no regulation. pragmatic doesn't license to most crypto casinos

I worked briefly for casino game provider. You'd be shocked how many sites run bootleg versions of popular slots. They look identical but RTP might be 70% instead of 96%

Easy way to check: legit pragmatic games have verify button in corner. If missing or doesn't work properly, you're playing knockoff

@BTCerber just checked and no verify button at all on CryptoWins version. definitely avoiding that site now. any list of known legitimate crypto casinos that run real pragmatic games?

stake, bc.game, cloudbet, and roobet all run legitimate licensed games. general rule: bigger sites can't risk reputation with fake games
