Multiplier Reel

To the left of the grid sits a special Multiplier Reel that drops up to 5 random Multiplier symbols between x1 and x500 on each new spin. All wins are multiplied by the bottom-most Multiplier from this reel. After each Cascade, the Multipliers on this reel will drop down one position.

Candy Blitz Free Spins

Landing 4, 5, or 6 Scatters across the grid during the base game triggers the Free Spins round, awarding 10, 12, and 14 Free Spins respectively.

During Free Spins, the minimum Multiplier value possible on the Multiplier Reel is x2. Landing 4, 5, or 6 Scatters during this time will award an additional +5, +8, and +10 Free Spins respectively.

Candy Blitz: Our Verdict

Candy Blitz may not look like much at first, but inside the gooey-rich centre is a slot that’s jam-packed with potential. Candy Blitz has a vibrant background, colourful symbols, and a pleasing soundtrack to match, but was gameplay just as appealing?

Like Sugar Rush and Fruit Party, Pragmatic Play has opted for Multipliers as the main attraction but has chosen to portray them in a different way. The Multiplier Reel in the base game can drop up to 5 random Multipliers per spin, with their values reaching highs of x500.

During Free Spins, the Multiplier Reel will always drop Multiplier values, with the lowest possible value of x2. During testing, the Multiplier Reel really popped off, hitting a number of big Multiplier values, but it wasn’t quite as generous in the base game.

Candy Blitz has us on quite the sugar high already, but this is amplified by the max win cap of 10,000x. It’s no secret that Pragmatic Play love to pop out slots with a 5,000x max win cap, but it’s great to see them go out of their comfort zone every once in a while.

All in all, it’s easy to shrug Candy Blitz off for its lack of features and mechanics, but once you take a bite out of it, it will soon have you hooked!
