The bonus hunt dataset
Every slot database will tell you a game's advertised RTP. None of them can tell you what actually happened when the bonus was opened. This is our record of exactly that: 16,755 bonus opens across 1,881 slots in 816 live hunts, recorded as they were played between 22 May 2026 and 4 Nov 2026.
Last recorded open: 4 Nov 2026. Updates as hunts sync, usually within a day of a stream.

What actually happened16,755 opens by result
Across all 16,755 recorded opens, the middle bonus returned 49.6× the bet. 4,923 opens (29%) returned 100× or more and 123 returned nothing. Because a bought bonus usually costs around 100× the bet, roughly 71% of the bonuses in this dataset lost money against their buy price.
Monthly reports6 months
The same dataset cut to one calendar month: what was opened, what it returned, which slots paid and which didn't, and the ten biggest single opens. Each report is fixed once its month closes, so it can be cited.
Studios, by what they paid28 studios · at least 50 opens each
Ranked on the middle open across everything we have recorded from each studio, best first. 100×+ is the share of our opens that at least covered a typical bonus buy; dead is the share that returned nothing. A statement about our sample of each studio's games, not about the studio's maths — a studio we have played 50 times can still move a lot.

Slots with the most data60 slots · most-recorded first
Ranked by how many opens we hold, deliberately not by result — this is the index into the dataset, not a highlight reel. Every slot listed has at least 3 opens; open one for its full result distribution. For which slots are paying now, see the best bonus hunt slots ranking.
How this is worked out
One recorded open is one bonus feature played out to the end during a live bonus hunt. The bet, the return and the time are logged as it happens. The multiplier is the return divided by the bet; a bought bonus typically costs around 100× the bet, so an open under 100× lost money against the buy price. Nothing is modelled, simulated, back-filled or taken from a provider datasheet.
Typical is the median, not the average, so one lucky hit cannot carry a slot that paid nothing the rest of the time. A slot needs at least 3 recorded opens before any rate or median is shown for it; below that only the raw count and the individual results are published.
What this dataset is not: a prediction. It is a record of what happened in these sessions. Slot outcomes are random and past results carry no information about future ones; the sample is small next to the millions of spins a published RTP is calculated over, and every bet was placed by a streamer on the StreamNeeds network, so it is not a representative sample of all play. Read it as evidence of what these games did on stream, and nothing more.

What counts as one recorded open?
One bonus feature played out to the end on a slot during a live bonus hunt. The bet size, the total returned and the date are recorded at the time it happens. Bonuses that have been collected but not yet opened are excluded until they are played.
Is any of this simulated or estimated?
No. Every figure comes from a bonus that was actually opened on a live stream and logged as it happened. Nothing is modelled, simulated, back-filled or taken from a provider datasheet.
What does the multiplier mean?
The multiplier is the amount won divided by the bet size for that open, written as × the bet. A bought bonus typically costs around 100× the bet, so an open below 100× lost money against the buy price.
How large a sample does a slot need before you publish rates?
A slot needs at least 3 recorded opens before any percentage or median is shown for it. Below that only the raw count and the individual results are published, because a rate from one or two opens is noise rather than a statistic.
How often is the dataset updated?
It updates as hunts are played and synced — typically within a day of a stream. The date each slot was last recorded is shown on its own page.
