Candy Blast Slot Review

Candy Blast: Slot Overview

Candy Blast from Push Gaming drops me onto a tropical candy island where the 6x5 grid sits on what looks like a giant biscuit. It is a scatter-pays slot, so wins land when eight or more matching symbols appear anywhere, then tumble away to make room for new sweets. High volatility, a Pay Anywhere engine and a Total Multiplier that can climb to x2,048 give the game real punch.

Under the sugar-coated surface, Candy Blast is actually a reskin of Mad Blast, so the maths and mechanics are identical even if the colours are brighter and the atmosphere lighter. Stakes run from 10p up to £100 a spin, with a max win capped at 10,000x the bet. That mix of tumbling wins, doubling multipliers and a chunky top prize makes it a serious high-risk candy slot despite the playful look.

Theme, Gameplay, & Payouts in Candy Blast

The theme in Candy Blast leans hard into sweets, cupcakes and syrupy colours, backed by a relaxed soundtrack that keeps things light while the maths stays brutal. Every spin fully refreshes the grid, and once a win lands the Cascade kicks in, clearing winners and dropping in new symbols. Because the game uses scatter pays rather than lines, it stays easy to follow even when several tumbles build into one long winning sequence.

Symbols and Payouts in Candy Blast

Candy Blast keeps the paytable tight with just nine regular symbols. The lower-paying icons are the blue, purple, green, pink and orange candies, which pay for eight or more landing at once anywhere on the grid. Hit the top band of 12+ matching candies and you are looking at returns in the low single-digit multipliers, up to around 6x the stake for the best of the low symbols when the Total Multiplier is still modest.

High-paying symbols are the purple cake, green cake, dragon fruit cupcake and banana cupcake. In the 12+ range these climb sharply, with the banana cupcake topping out at 50x the bet before the Total Multiplier is applied, while the other premiums range between roughly 4x and 20x. There are no wilds at all. Instead the game relies on non-paying specials, namely the Rainbow Cupcake scatter, the Multiplier Boost symbol and the Extra Life symbol.

Candy Blast Slot Bonus Features

Bonus action in Candy Blast starts with Cascades and the Total Multiplier. Every time a winning tumble hits, the Total Multiplier shown on the left side doubles for that spin. It begins at x1 in the base game and can climb step by step up to x2,048, with the current value applied to every win during that sequence. A non-winning tumble ends the chain and drops the Total Multiplier back to the starting point.

The Multiplier Boost symbol and Extra Life symbol keep things lively. Multiplier Boost is a pink candy cloud marked with a number from 1 to 5. When it lands as part of a win, it increases the Total Multiplier by that many steps in one go, which can jump you through the ladder far quicker than normal tumbles. Extra Life only triggers after a non-winning cascade, wiping all regular pay symbols except the most common one and any feature symbols, then causing a fresh drop.

Free spins in Candy Blast arrive when three or more Rainbow Cupcake scatters land. Three scatters award eight free spins with a starting Total Multiplier of x2, four give ten spins at x4, and five drop twelve spins with x8. Any scatter during the bonus adds one extra spin. During free spins, Multiplier Strike Out comes into play after three consecutive wins, removing the last active multiplier step from the ladder. Push Bet can double your base stake for an increased bonus chance, and there are two Feature Buy options at 150x and 750x the bet if you prefer to jump straight into the free game.

How to Play Candy Blast Slot

Getting started with Candy Blast is simple. I pick a stake between 10p and £100 using the bet selector, then hit the spin button on the right. Symbols drop rather than spin, which suits the Cascade mechanic. Since this is a scatter pays slot, I am always hunting for eight or more matching symbols anywhere on the 6x5 grid. When that happens, the winning symbols vanish, new ones fall in, and the Total Multiplier climbs.

From a seasoned player’s point of view, Candy Blast is all about managing a bankroll around its high volatility and aggressive multipliers. I tend to stick to sensible bets, let the base game work, and only consider the Feature Buy when the balance can handle a 150x or 750x hit. Push Bet doubles the base stake and ramps variance further, so I treat it as an occasional enhancer rather than something to keep permanently active.

RTP & Volatility in Candy Blast Slot

Candy Blast runs on high volatility, so dry spells can be long, but the wins that land can sting nicely once the Total Multiplier climbs. The default RTP sits at 96.34%, though operators can use lower versions at 94.30% or even 85.43%. The betting range of 10p to £100 keeps it accessible, and with the max win set at 10,000x the stake there is clear potential for big hits if you ride out the swings.

Final Thoughts on Candy Blast

As someone who plays a lot of Push Gaming titles, Candy Blast felt familiar from the first tumble, and the reskin angle is obvious once you have seen Mad Blast. That said, the candy island theme is bright, the visuals are clean, and the Total Multiplier ladder combined with Cascades still delivers tense, exciting runs when everything lines up. Lack of wilds is noticeable, yet the special symbols carry more than enough weight.

For me, Candy Blast works best if you enjoy scatter-pays grids with high volatility and progressive multipliers rather than classic line slots. The Extra Life mechanic keeps dead spins from feeling wasted, while Multiplier Strike Out in free spins helps push you towards the top of the ladder where the 10,000x cap comes into play. If you can handle the swingy nature of the game, this sugary reskin offers a solid, engaging session.
