Candy Jar Clusters (Pragmatic Play) Slot Demo & Review

It often feels as though slot providers go through phases of what themes they use more on their games, and of late, I’m sure I’ve reviewed more Candy themed slots than anything else. With this niggling thought in my mind, I wasn’t the least bit surprised to see Pragmatic Play’s Candy Jar Clusters slot hit my inbox this morning. So, what’s in store? For starters, we’ve got a mammoth 7-reel game operating on the cluster pays engine with an RTP of 96.08% and a max win of 10,000x bet.

As is often the case with grid slots, the cascading reels are present throughout the gameplay, activating when winning combos hit to remove winning symbols and replace them with new ones; you know the drill by now. A random multiplier can also trigger on any spin, with the possibility of up to 100x being applied to any wins created. The main talking point of the slot game though, is the random free spins feature, triggered when any of the three candies are collected in their respective jars. Once activated, up to three modifiers can be in play, all offering unique awards.

If your sweet tooth is craving some attention, I’ve got the perfect cure without you having to head into the kitchen to raid that special treat cupboard we all seem to have. Just fire up our Candy Jar Clusters slot demo instead; it’s sugar-free and free to play, the perfect mix, right?

Pragmatic Play has been on a roll of late with their sweet-related online slots, as it wasn’t all that long ago that we reviewed and added to our site both the Sugar Rush Xmas slot and the brilliant Sugar Supreme Powernudge slot, both great titles that are worth a few minutes of your time when you get chance to play. However, now is not that time, as we’re about to divulge just what Candy Jar Clusters can pay.

We have a mixture of treats and fruits over at the paytable, with the Ice Cream being the highest paying symbol worth 500x for winning clusters of 49. The Donut, Jelly and Biscuit all follow next, sharing equal payouts of 250x for winning combos of 49. The so-called lower pays, are the Melon, Plum, Orange, Kiwi and Lemon, and these will all reward you with 125x the bet if 49 are a part of a win. A Wild symbol can also appear as a Crown, substituting for all other regular symbols.

There’s no shortage of options regarding the bet selection on Candy Jar Clusters, with the minimum price to play set at €0.20 with over 30 options available to choose from before reaching the maximum limit of €100.


Candy Jar Clusters Slot Base Game

A super grid is in play on Pragmatic’s Candy Jar Clusters slot with a 7×7 playfield in operation, allowing 49 symbols to land on each spin. If six or more matching symbols land adjacently anywhere within the grid, their respective win will be paid, and the tumbling reels mechanic activates, removing winning symbols from the reels before new symbols fill the gaps left behind.


Random Multiplier

If a spin is going to result in a win, there is a random chance that a multiplier will be awarded and applied to that winning combo and all subsequent tumbles that follow. Possible values for the multiplier range from 2x – 100x.


Candy Jar Clusters Slot Bonus Features

Candy Jar Clusters Free Spins Feature

In the base game, there are three types of candies that can appear. Whenever a candy is collected, it can trigger the feature with 10 free spins awarded and 1, 2, or 3 modifiers active.

  • Yellow Candy: When the yellow candy hits, it gets collected in a jar next to the game marked as wild. Whenever it gets collected, it can randomly trigger the free spins feature with the wilds modifier active.
  • Red Candy: When the red candy hits, it gets collected in a jar next to the game marked as free spins. Whenever it gets collected, it can randomly trigger the re-triggers modifier active.
  • Green Candy: When the green candy hits, it gets collected in a jar next to the game marked as jackpots. Whenever it gets collected, it can randomly trigger the free spins feature with the jackpots modifier active.

Free Spins Feature

  • Wild Modifier Free Spins: When the wild modifier is active, at the beginning of the round, between 6 to 12 wild symbols are selected and guaranteed to hit on the screen in random positions for every free spin. A new Golden wild symbol also can hit during the round. Whenever it lands, it adds +1x to a wild multiplier that applies to all wins of any kind and remains active for the whole duration of the round. When a random multiplier hits while a wild multiplier multiplier exists, they multiply with each other.

  • Free Spins Modifier: When the free spins modifier is active, at the beginning of the round, 1, 2, 3 or 4 additional free spins are awarded for the subsequent round, and a new symbol, extra free spins symbol, can randomly hit on the screen. When this symbol hits, it awards one additional free spin and gets collected in a meter. Every five extra free spin symbols collected awards one super spin. The super spins are additional free spins played when all normal free spins end and only high-value symbols are present on the reel strips for them. During the super spins, all other available modifiers are active, and random multipliers can hit randomly.

  • Jackpot Free Spins: When the jackpot modifier is active, during the round, five fixed jackpots are available: Mini, Minor, Major, Maxi and Grand. For each, a new symbol can hit on the screen, with the name of the jackpot. Collecting 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 symbols will award the Mini (10x bet), Minor (25x bet), Major (50x bet), Maxi (100x bet) and Major (2,000x bet), respectively.

Bonus Buy

Players can instantly trigger the free spins at a cost of 100x the bet, where either 1, 2, or 3 modifiers will be in play.


Pros

  • A superbly designed game from top to bottom by Pragmatic Play.
  • The 10,000x max is much better than may Pragmatic slots, which are capped at 5,000x.

Cons

  • Some online casinos may run the game on an RTP of 94.07%.
  • The lowest value wins for clusters of 6 and 7 are a bit drab.

Candy Jar Clusters Slot Review Final Thoughts

You'll be disappointed if you are tuning into Candy Jar Clusters in the hope of seeing something similar in style to Push Gaming's Jammin Jars slot. However, it's still a decent looking game that has some fun modifiers that can trigger for the feature.I'm not a massive fan of the jackpot round, to be honest, as these types of features rarely pay anything other than the lowest two pots, but there's always room for the exception, I guess.I'll finish by saying this is a slot game that's well worth a blast, but to do any good, you'll need at least two modifiers to trigger, preferably the wild and free spin mods.
