Sugar Rush: a 7x7 grid of tumbling sweets

Symbols land on a 7x7 grid with a Sweets theme. A win forms when at least 5 matching symbols connect horizontally or vertically, so clusters pay in place of fixed paylines. The game has seven candy symbols, from pink lollipops and gummy bears to an orange heart-shaped jelly, and a SCATTER symbol that starts the free spins. Each cluster pays at the bet you choose, and the paytable lists what every symbol pays.

Tumble is always active, so winning symbols are removed and new ones fall in until no new win forms. Base game multiplier spots reset after each spin. During Free Spins the spots keep building: each repeat hit doubles them, up to x128. Retriggers add spins with the same table. The CREDIT balance stays frozen until the round-total screen.

Two modes, one grid

Once three scatters land, the round begins

At Playtime Casino, each mode is set out with its rules before the first spin.

Up to 30 spins from scatters

Three scatters start 10 spins, four start 12, five start 15, six start 20 and seven start 30. The round runs on special reels, and the credit balance stays frozen until the round-total screen. Multiplier Spots persist across the round and double on each repeat hit, up to x128.

Base game scatters10-30 spins

Sugar Rush tumble clusters

The fixed 7x7 grid always runs Tumble. Five or more matching symbols connected horizontally or vertically pay. Winning symbols are removed, the rest fall, and new symbols refill from above until no new win. Multiplier Spots reset to empty at the end of each spin.

Five stages

Opening Sugar Rush with a budget in mind

The usual worry is what a spin costs and what happens after a win.

  1. A$0.20 to A$240 bet range

    Choose a bet from A$0.20 up to A$240 before the first spin. Each win scales with the stake, so an A$0.50 bet and an A$5 bet follow the same rules.

  2. Reading how clusters refill

    Five or more matching symbols connected horizontally or vertically pay on the 7x7 grid. Winning symbols vanish, the rest fall and new ones drop in until no new win forms.

  3. Sugar Rush tumble and multipliers

    Tumble stays active on every base game spin. Multiplier Spots reset to empty once each spin's tumble sequence ends, so the next spin starts without them.

  4. Sugar Rush free spins from Scatters

    Three to seven Scatters start the round, giving 10 to 30 spins. The round runs on special reels, and the credit balance stays frozen until the round-total screen.

  5. Before the first spin, a limit

    Decide your budget and your stopping point before the first spin. Sugar Rush has high volatility, so results can swing widely from one session to the next.

Play for cash

Before the first spin on the reels

On the 7x7 grid, three or more scatters on any spin can start the Free Spins round. How often the Free Spins round comes is not known in advance. The result of one session is random, whatever the RTP printed in the rules. A short run can end with no Free Spins, and a long one can contain several.

The reels of Sugar Rush run on a 7x7 grid, but the RTP in use is shown only in the game rules. Open the rules screen before the first spin and read the figure there, not the name on the lobby tile.

Clusters on the reels can pay a large multiple of the bet, but the ceiling is reached very rarely. No one can predict when a single spin will come close to it. Read the figures below to see what the ceiling means in money at each bet.

Sugar Rush questions

Know the basics before the first reel drops

Once you finish, you will have checked the trigger, volatility, versions and bet limits.

How do I get free spins in Sugar Rush?

Sugar Rush starts its free spins when 3 or more scatter symbols land on the 7x7 grid. Three scatters give 10 spins, four give 12, five give 15, six give 20 and seven give 30. A repeat trigger during the round adds spins on the same table.

How volatile is Sugar Rush for players?

Sugar Rush carries high volatility, so wins tend to arrive in uneven bursts rather than steadily. The maximum win is 5,000 times the bet. At a bet of A$5 that equals A$25,000, and no session can predict when a large win will land.

How is Sugar Rush 1000 different from Sugar Rush?

Sugar Rush 1000 returns 96.53% against 96.50% for this game, and its maximum win is 25,000 times the bet. Sugar Rush Super Scatter returns 96.58% with a maximum win of 50,000 times the bet. Each version is separate, so compare the figures before you play.

What are the bet limits for Sugar Rush?

Sugar Rush accepts bets from A$0.20 to A$240. The examples on this page use A$0.50, A$2 and A$5, and the paytable uses A$0.50. The top win scales with the bet, so at A$240 the maximum win is A$1,200,000.
