Editorial note: this is a general guide to how Sugar Rush works. Slot rules, feature availability and RTP can vary between operators and game versions, so always check the in-game information panel before you spin. Slots are games of chance — nothing here is a prediction of results, and no strategy changes the odds.
Sugar Rush slot review
Sugar Rush is Pragmatic Play’s 2022 candy-grid hit — a seven-by-seven cluster game with a mechanic all its own: every winning position leaves behind a multiplier spot that doubles each time it wins again, climbing through 2x, 4x, 8x and onwards to 128x, and in the free spins those spots never go away. Released a few years after Sweet Bonanza, it gave Pragmatic a second candy franchise with a completely different engine, and the persistent-multiplier idea proved popular enough to spawn 1000 and seasonal editions of its own.
How Sugar Rush plays
Wins form when five or more matching sweets connect horizontally or vertically, then tumble away so new symbols can drop into the gaps and extend the chain. Jellies, gummies and hard candies make up the paytable, and the game’s pace is dictated entirely by how long a tumble sequence can keep feeding itself.

Multiplier spots and free spins
Each position involved in a win is marked. Win on a marked spot again within the same sequence and it gains a 2x multiplier, doubling with each further win there — up to 128x per spot. In the base game the marks reset between spins; trigger the free spins with three or more scatters, though, and every multiplier spot persists for the entire round. A board that gradually fills with high multiplier zones is the game’s endgame, and extra scatters retrigger more spins.
RTP, volatility and max win
RTP can differ between operators and game versions, so check the game's information panel in the version you play. Volatility is high, and the advertised maximum win is 5,000 times your stake. A 1000-branded sequel raises the ceiling for those who want even more variance.
All values (Bet Levels, Maximum Wins etc.) mentioned in relation to this slot game are subject to change at any time.
For the version with multiplier spots up to x1,024, see Sugar Rush 1000.
