Candy Kingdom Slot
Candy Kingdom is quite unlike any slot machine that you have ever played before. In reality, this game by Magnet Gaming isn't really a slot machine at all, but rather it puts a money winning spin on the popular trend of social games such as Candy Crush and Bejewelled. As such, players are presented with a unique 5x5 grid of simple, colourful, candy symbols, giving this game a cutesy cute atmosphere and marshmallow soft aesthetic.
But, perhaps the sweetest thing about this gambling game is the fact that it has two progressive jackpots, both of which can be won by playing a variety of exciting and unique bonus side games.
A Different Way to Spin
Like we said, this game by Magnet Gaming works a little bit differently from most slot machines that you might have played before. That is because instead of asking players to line up sequence of symbols across various horizontal or diagonal paylines, the aim of the game is to find combinations of adjacent matching in any pattern – as long as those symbols share a flat side with each other. In other words, symbols that touch corners with each other won't make a valid sequence.
Whenever a successful series of three icons match up on the 5x5 playing grid, a winning prize will be awarded as shown on the paytable of the game. And should another matching symbol appear, then the same winning value would be added, and so on. So, for example, three heart shaped candies will award a 40x total bet prize while four will award an 80x total prize and five will award 120x. In theory, there is no limit to how many adjacent symbols can appear next to each other, but it would be very rare indeed to find more than five matched icons
The winning values automatically update to correspond with your chosen bets, so you can play around with the options before you start playing. Alternatively, you can check the nifty little table below which shows the total bet multiplier values for each candy icon. The wagering options start from as little as 0.25 per go and go up to 10 credits per turn.
Sweet Multipliers
One of the great things about this game is that it doesn't disappoint when it comes to extra gameplay features. For instance, even during the normal game, players will be able to enjoy some exciting multiplier action because after each winning turn, the matched symbols will disappear allowing new symbols to fall into place. This will cause a multiplier value above the reels to rise, meaning that any consequent wins will offer even bigger prizes up to 5x the normal value.
Plus, the normal game features a special “Pattern Matcher” next to the game grid. Players can fill this pattern by finding winning combinations in certain reel positions and when the patter is complete, a “Game Flash” will begin which will basically award a random bonus prize, or trigger one of the three special bonus games.
Bon-Bon Bonus
Those bonus games can also be activated by finding two, three or four of the special scatter candy symbols in any grid position, like so:
- Candy Collector (two scatters): this awards 20 free spins in which players have to find a 10 candy randomly chosen candy symbols to fill a box on the left hand side of the screen. Players simply have to fill the box to win the prize that is shown. If players fill up the ninth bag with three stars then they will win the smaller progressive jackpot. And if they fill up the eighteenth bag with three hearts, then they will unleash the larger progressive jackpot.
- Cake Spinner (three scatters): This game involves a series of spinning wheels, five smaller cakes which will determine the prize pool and one larger cake which will spin to reward a prize which could be either the normal jackpot or super jackpot.
- Waffle mountain (four scatters): This board game style bonus gives players the chance to move around different levels of a giant waffle collecting random prizes. Again, finding three stars will give players a chance to win the lower jackpot while three hearts will give them a go at the super progressive jackpot prize.
Get Your Sugar Fix
Candy Kingdom is a hugely entertaining game. Even if there weren't any money involved then we bet that players would really enjoy the bonus filled action. Admittedly, the theme might be a bit sweet and saccharine for some players, but the game is sure to have a popular appeal to players who are fans of similar games.
