High-volatility sweets game on a 6x5 grid

Cascades with a climbing multiplier
Candy Blast launches you into a 6-reel, 5-row grid where symbols tumble down and new ones fall to fill the gaps. The slot runs on a cascading mechanic: when you land 8 or more matching symbols anywhere on the grid, they clear and trigger a new cascade. A Total Multiplier ladder builds with each winning cascade, doubling each time until a spin produces no wins and resets the ladder to x1. Push Gaming released this confectionery-themed game in March 2025, designed for players who accept longer stretches between wins in exchange for much bigger payouts.
Who should sit this one out
Candy Blast suits players with a solid bankroll who can weather high volatility across sessions without chasing losses. The slot runs on stakes from A$0.10 to A$100, with an RTP of 96.34% on the standard game. You can trigger Free Spins with landing 3 or more Rainbow Cupcake scatters, or buy your way in with a 150x or 750x base bet. The game also offers an ante bet option that doubles your stake to sharpen the bonus trigger chance. If you prefer steady, frequent payouts, this is not your slot.
Bonus rounds and the multiplier strike out
The Free Spins Feature is what reshapes your round and drives the biggest wins. Land 3 scatters for 8 spins with a x2 starting multiplier, 4 scatters for 10 spins at x4, or 5 scatters for 12 spins at x8. Every additional scatter that lands during the feature adds one more spin. The Total Multiplier ladder keeps climbing through your free spins, but watch for the Multiplier Strike Out: after 3 consecutive winning cascades, the game strips away the lowest step of your ladder. This means your multiplier cannot climb as high as it would during a base game cascade sequence.

Where you are in a round

Candy Blast runs through these five steps

Shark Casino lets you set your stake before each spin and walk away whenever you choose.

  1. 1

    Stake from A$0.10 to A$100

    You pick your bet from A$0.10 to A$100 per spin. Toggle the Ante Bet to double your stake and raise your odds of hitting free spins, though your payout is still based on your base bet. Your total shows before you spin.

  2. 2

    When your symbols match

    Eight or more matching symbols anywhere on the 6x5 grid create a win and land a payout. Symbols pay where they land on the reels, no paylines needed. The grid cascades after each win, dropping new symbols into place.

  3. 3

    Multiplier climbs and resets

    The Total Multiplier ladder climbs by doubling after each winning cascade in the base game. It resets to x1 when a spin produces no win. The multiplier applies to all payouts during your spins until it drops back.

  4. 4

    How the bonus round begins

    Three or more Rainbow Cupcake scatters anywhere trigger free spins: three scatters give 8 spins with a x2 multiplier, four give 10 spins with x4, five give 12 spins with x8. Each extra scatter landing during the round adds one more spin.

  5. 5

    Candy Blast and your limits

    You can set deposit limits, loss limits or session time reminders before play to control your spending. You can also use the cooling-off period or self-exclusion if you need to stop. Gambling Help Online, Lifeline Australia and BetStop support players in Australia.

How free spins work

Trigger your free spins round

Candy Blast free spins trigger

Three or more Rainbow Cupcake scatters anywhere on the grid trigger this round. Three scatters give 8 spins with a x2 multiplier start; four scatters give 10 spins with x4; five scatters give 12 spins with x8. Each scatter that lands during the bonus adds one extra spin.

When wins keep climbing

After three winning cascades in a row during free spins, the highest step drops off your multiplier ladder for the rest of the round. The maximum x2048 step cannot be deleted. This feature only runs when free spins are active.

More spins, different odds

Toggle this option to double your total stake and boost the chance that Rainbow Cupcakes land. Your wins still pay out based on the base bet, not the doubled amount. This mode lowers your RTP to 96.29 per cent.

Skip the wait and buy in

Buy your way into free spins matching the three-scatter outcome: 8 spins with a x2 multiplier start for 150 times your base bet. At an A$2 base bet, this costs A$300. Your RTP for this purchase is 96.35 per cent.

When the reels are set

Candy Blast bonus buys and the ante bet

Quick start to free spins
A$300 (x150)
Start your free spins with a x2 multiplier and eight spins included. At an example bet of A$2, this costs A$300 and gives you the bonus outcome that normally needs three scatters.
Maximum paid bonus package
A$1 500 (x750)
Jump straight to the strongest free spins outcome: a x8 starting multiplier with twelve spins. At an example bet of A$2, this purchase costs A$1 500 and skips the need to land five scatters.
Ante bet doubles the stake
A$2 → A$4
Double your stake to double your Total Bet and raise the chance that Rainbow Cupcakes land. Your wins still count from your original bet amount, not the doubled one. At A$2, the ante doubles your spin cost to A$4.

What you cannot know

What stays unknown when you start

Bonus frequency stays random

No two players will see the bonus round arrive at the same pace. How often Rainbow Cupcakes trigger is not something you can predict before you spin.

Will this session pay me back?

One session might give you a gain, another might not, whatever the RTP says. What you stake today and what you see returned are separate things each time.

Which RTP applies to your play?

Your casino runs one of four RTP settings. Which version powers the game you play is written only in the game rules, not shown at the lobby.

Treat the maximum as a ceiling

The A$1 000 000 maximum win exists as a ceiling. Reaching it happens so rarely that planning around it is not a realistic way to play.

Play with limits

Winning doesn't mean keep playing

How much can you lose?
Decide how much you can afford to lose before you start playing, and treat that as gone once the session begins. Your budget keeps the game from draining more than you intended.
Quit plan before you start
Set a win target and a loss limit before spinning, then stick to both. A big win is a reason to cash out, not to spin again and chase more.
Account controls that work
Use your account's deposit limits and loss limits to enforce what you decided. These tools cut off play when you've spent what you set, so emotion doesn't override your plan.
Take a break when it counts
If the game stops feeling like fun or your spending worries you, pause your account or self-exclude. Gambling Help Online, Lifeline Australia and BetStop are there when you need to step back.
