Sugar Pop sounds like the sweetest of games, but will it prove to be a sweet choice for you to check out? It does involve a lot of candy – enough to make your teeth start to hurt just looking at the reels. We’ve got the info you need to know before you take this game for a spin. Are you ready?
Who created Sugar Pop?
This one comes to us from Betsoft. They have also given us the charming Charms & Clovers slot, along with Fruit Zen, Genie’s Fortune, and Pharaoh King.
Does it include a demo version?
Yes, just load the demo rather than the real version. Some casinos make the demos available to players even if they are not members of the site. That would be the ideal way to play.
What is the theme in Sugar Pop?
Sugar! Well, candy of all sorts, as you will see on the reels of the game. There are hearts, diamonds, triangles, and other symbols there as well. While they are all quite familiar shapes, they also look like candy or boiled sweets of some kind.
Game design features
This is a pink game – a very pink game! It has a cotton candy-style backdrop which suits the theme nicely. It also has detailed info on the game on the left of the reels and below are the controls. As such, you can enjoy the game with no worries about whether you have selected the right elements.
What type of game is it?
You get a bigger layout in this game – five reels and five rows. We know this is a sugary game, so it is no surprise to find tons of candy on the reels. You must get three matching candies that touch each other to net a prize. The more candies you get that match in that qualifying pattern, the larger the win would be.
Winning candies will pop (hence the title) and vanish. They are replaced by others that could theoretically net you another prize. This will continue until no new prizes can be won from the combination shown on screen.
Special icons might also appear. If you get a four-icon win, a Super Color Candy will appear. Meanwhile, a Color Bomb pops up if you manage to secure a five-icon prize. This will then remove all the other candies of the same color appearing anywhere else on the grid.
How many paylines are present?
The bigger screen will allow 50 lines to be introduced to play on.
Coin options
Coins are worth from two cents apiece to a dollar at most. You can also choose to play up to five of your chosen coins on each line. All the lines are fixed, so the smallest spin bet would amount to a dollar.
Where is the paytable?
Look for the icon that says ‘view pays’ at the top right of your screen. This will reveal the information you are looking for.
Sugar Pop bonus features
Expect numerous levels to be played in this game. As such, it does feel a little like a famous game involving lots of special candy. However, Sugar Pop is a good game and is certainly more like a slot game than anything else. Going from one level to the next is something you will want to strive for as you play.
Level One is the Lollipop level, while Level 20 – yes, there are that many – brings you the Cotton Candy level. Many levels include a new bonus, such as a special candy, so you will experience more of the game as you progress.
Can you scoop any free spins?
No, this is not a slot game featuring free spins.
What’s the RTP for Sugar Pop?
It looks as though this one ranks at 97.6%.
Our rating for the slot
How could we give this anything less than 9 out of 10? We are only deducting a point as it can take time to reach each new level… although we guess that is probably the point!
What about slot game winners?
We know there are winners of this slot out there, as it now has a sequel to it as well. Only the best games receive sequels, and this one looks as though it has done well among all players – winners and losers alike.
