Counting Down the Biggest Wins of 2025
It’s that time of the year again, when Christmas decorations colorize snow-capped streets, and traditional songs can be heard everywhere. It’s also time for lucky winners to count their blessings and, why not, show off their riches in the biggest winners of 2025. Here are some jaw-dropping stories.
All Year Round Biggest Winners
As you can see, there isn’t only one way to the jackpot, and different kinds of slots have made some players really happy this year. Unlike casino-based movies, there are no instant millionaires on the list, but prizes have been pretty juicy indeed. Learn more about the most exciting games and their legendary winners.
Golden Buffalo - Patryk K. $355,275
And the biggest winner award goes to Patryk K, leading the board for a mile. Golden Buffalo was developed by Mobilots, with a maximum prize of 2,500 coins, meaning that the lucky bet was about USD 140. The game has an RTP of 97%, eight paying symbols, and a 5x4 grid. Golden Buffalo evokes the aesthetics of old Western movies, with the desert as a backdrop and symbols such as gold bars and horses.
Treasure of Minos - Clinton R. $245,760
This year’s runner-up faced the mysteries of the Minotaur’s labyrinth in Treasure of Minos. Indeed, it was a worthwhile adventure. This high-volatility game was developed by Wingo, with an RTP of 96% and a maximum multiplier of no less than 15,360x. It has a regular 5x3 grid, superb graphics, and a range of special features, including a unique respin bonus in which multipliers increase with each non-winning round.
Mo' Honey Mo' Money - John J. $103,100
John J. completes the podium with his lucky spin at Mo' Honey Mo' Money, by Dragon Gaming. Despite its relatively low RTP rate (95.4%), it’s a medium volatility game, with 20 betways and a jackpot up to 4,000x the initial wager. As the name suggests, it’s a honey-themed adventure, where the 5x4 grid looks like a beehive. Special features such as sticky wilds and bonus games help keep the honey (and adrenaline) flowing.
Diamond Reels - Hold & Win - Chad $100,550
Chad will finish this year with diamonds on the inside (his pocket). Diamond Reels, by Dragon Gaming, is a high-volatility slot with an RTP of 97.45% and a maximum prize of 5,000x the initial bet. It features a classic-looking 5x3 grid on a red backdrop, with symbols comprising gems and playing cards (A, K, Q, J). Apart from regular free spins, players can spice up their games with respins, Risk Gamble, and fixed jackpots.

Plinko Blitz - Steve R. $100,000
Amid so many slots with splashy features, Steve R. met his luck at Plinko Blitz, by Dragon Gaming. Indeed, it’s a game that slot lovers would enjoy. It’s dynamic, requires no skills, multipliers up to 500x, and has an RTP of 95% to 99%. Similar to slots, it’s a game of pure luck; once the ball is dropped from the top of the board, all players can do is hope for the best. It seems to have worked out well for Steve R.
Blazin' Buffalo Extreme - Valerie S. $94,140
The Wild West still holds riches waiting for those who are brave enough to take their chances. Valerie S. did it, striking a USD 94,140 jackpot. Indeed, it was no mean feat: Blazin' Buffalo by Rival Gaming has high volatility and an RTP rate of 96.1%. It has 243 betways in its 5x3 grid, and a jackpot of 20,000x the initial bet. The game was released last April and offers a host of modern bonus features, including expanding and sticky wilds with respins.
Shake Your Mummymaker - Sebastian P. $62,310
Sebastian P. shook that mummymaker, and he couldn’t be happier with the result: USD 62,310. Shake Your Mummymaker isn’t yet another ancient-Egypt-based game, with haunted souls and sarcophaguses. Traditional symbols are still there, like the Ankh, Anubis, pharaohs, and whatnot. However, Rival Gaming has created this high-volatility game with an RTP of 96.54%, 243 ways to win, and quite a few special features, including Hold & Win.
Zeus Thunder Fortunes - Pasquale N. $62,040
Zeus Thunder Fortunes is an adventure for the brave, having as little as a 94.1% RTP rate. It’s also a high-volatility game, meaning that players win much less frequently than they would like to. Zeus Thunder Fortunes has 243 ways to win, but that doesn’t mean much, as winning combinations are pretty rare anyway. Pasquale N. is one of the very few lucky winners, pocketing USD 62,040. It’s been developed by Rival Gaming and released last year, and, like Shake Your Mummymaker, has a Hold & Win feature.
Metal Detector: Mayan Magic - Rob D. $61,950
Here’s another game for the fearless explorer, and bringing a metal detector to a Mayan ruin is as much fun as it sounds. Metal Detector: Mayan Magic was also developed by Rival Gaming, using some of the same ingredients, such as a 94.1% RTP rate and Hold & Win. Symbols comprise colourful masks, magic rings, cards, and even sandals. Additionally, the 2x Multiplier symbol can land on the screen at any time. Undeniably, Rob D. struck gold with a USD 61,950 jackpot.

Plinko Blitz - Jack K. $51,000
Compared to the other slots mentioned in this article, Plinko Blitz is a pretty laid-back option with the highest RTP. Unlike slots, there aren’t bonus features where players can boost their winnings with some extra luck. The initial bet is, in fact, the only chance a player has to win. It means that Jack K. must have been pretty lucky, bold, or both to have won a USD 51,000 prize.
