The Sweet Alchemy Slot Game appears to have been inspired by the likes of Candy Crush Saga, as it involves a number of different confectionary treats requiring to be matched. There is a female alchemist who helps players to earn as many rewards as possible, which is always a bonus!
We certainly enjoyed the magical aspect of using candy during our Sweet Alchemy review and players would be wise to give this slot game a go, even if it is just the Sweet Alchemy Free Play version above as a starter.
Gameplay
Sweet Alchemy works on the method of cluster wins across a 5×5 grid. Match four or more in any one area (including Wilds when in play) and winnings will be generated, whilst also building the ‘Sugar Rush’ booster in the bottom right of the screen.
With bets ranging from €0.10 to €100, the potential winnings can be huge. On the screen, there is the Quick Betting Panel whereby the bet is set per spin, the ‘Spin’ button and an ‘Autoplay’ option for an uninterrupted gaming experience.
The game has eight different symbols that all represent different types of candy and all vary in the size of reward given as they all appear to characterise the ‘sweet’ theme that Play ‘N Go looks to follow.
Wild symbols can appear when a certain number of symbols are matched per spin. For example, the first Wilds are usual wilds, whilst the second set are ‘striped candy’, which help to delete entire rows and allow for new clusters to be formed. ‘Dotted’ Wilds will clear a random symbol when formed in part of a win.
As mentioned, there is a ‘Sugar Rush’ meter and this fills up every time combinations are made on each spin. If players are able to accumulate a total of 38 matching symbols from one spin, a free round will be unlocked.
Feature Bonuses
Our Sweet Alchemy review found that if players are able to amass the 38 symbols from one spin in the normal part of the game, they will be able to head to the Mix the Elixir Feature round.
In this round, the female alchemist character will help bettors with a number of free spins that can help to take winnings to huge values! Depending on how many symbols were matched in the previous spin, players can get anywhere from between 1 to 7 different super moves on a grid that has expanded 9×9.
If players are able to achieve the targets that are presented in the bottom left of the screen and climb the levels, they will be rewarded with the potential to maximise their wins via the Elixir of Power Bonus feature.
A screen of chocolate tiles (5×5) is presented to the user from which they must pick, until three are matched.
- At Level 1, the prizes go up to 5x your stake and 3x your win from the free spins.
- At Level 2, the prizes go up to 10x your stake and 5x your win from the free spins.
- At Level 3, the prizes go up to 10x your stake and 10x your win from the free spins.
RTP (return to player)
Sweet Alchemy’s return to player (RTP) rate is set at 96.5%, which is in line with many of Play N’ Go’s slot game offerings.
