7x7 Cluster Pays Tumbling Slot with 1024x Multipliers
Random symbols become powered-up with gold star indicators. When they explode, they clear a 3x3 area, doubling all position multipliers and triggering chain reactions.
Each winning position doubles its multiplier from 1x up to 1024x. Watch multipliers grow with consecutive tumbling wins on the same positions.
Land 4 bonus gift box symbols to trigger 10 free spins where all multipliers become sticky throughout the entire feature.
Hit 5 bonus symbols for 10 free spins starting with the entire 7x7 board pre-filled with random multipliers up to 1024x on every position.
Activate this side bet for 3x your stake to increase bonus trigger probability by 5 times. Perfect for bonus hunters seeking more feature action.
Skip the base game and purchase Party Bonus or Candy Bonus directly. Candy Bonus costs more but starts with full board multipliers.
Candy Rush operates on a 7x7 grid system where symbols don't need to align on traditional paylines. Instead, you need 5 or more matching symbols touching horizontally or vertically to form a winning cluster. This cluster pays mechanic creates 49 individual positions where wins can form in multiple patterns simultaneously.
When a winning cluster forms, those symbols explode and disappear from the grid. New symbols fall from above to fill the empty spaces, potentially creating new winning combinations without requiring another spin. This tumble mechanic continues until no new wins appear. Each position on the grid tracks its own multiplier value that starts at 1x.
Every time a position contributes to a winning cluster, its multiplier doubles: 1x becomes 2x, then 4x, 8x, 16x, 32x, 64x, 128x, 256x, 512x, and maxes out at 1024x. In the base game, multipliers reset after the tumble sequence ends. However, in Party Bonus free spins, these multipliers stick for all 10 spins.
Any regular symbol can randomly become powered-up, shown by a golden border and star indicator. When a powered-up symbol participates in a winning cluster and explodes, it triggers a 3x3 explosion around its position. This explosion removes all surrounding symbols regardless of type and doubles the multipliers on all 9 positions (up to the 1024x cap).
The explosive mechanic creates chain reactions. If another powered-up symbol sits within the 3x3 blast radius, it also explodes, potentially triggering additional powered symbols. A single tumble can result in multiple cascading explosions that dramatically increase position multipliers across large sections of the grid.
The seven regular symbols have distinct payout structures. Cookie and Green Jelly are low-value symbols appearing more frequently but paying modestly. Purple Popsicle, Pink Ice Cream Cone, and Red Cake Slice occupy the middle tier with balanced frequency and payouts. Ice Cream Sundae and Golden Bear are premium symbols that appear less often but deliver substantial wins.
For the Golden Bear, connecting exactly 5-6 symbols pays 1.5x your bet, while a massive cluster of 15 or more pays 30x. Combined with position multipliers, a full screen of Golden Bears hitting multiple 1024x positions could theoretically approach the 5,000x maximum win potential.
Landing 4 rainbow gift box bonus symbols anywhere on the grid triggers Party Bonus with 10 free spins. The critical difference from base game is multiplier persistence. When a position reaches 8x, 64x, or 256x during a tumble sequence, it stays there for all remaining spins.
This creates exponential win potential. Early free spins that establish high multipliers across multiple positions set up massive wins in later spins. If you build several 512x or 1024x positions by spin 3, the remaining 7 spins hit those multiplied values repeatedly. Powered-up symbol explosions during Party Bonus can rapidly escalate multipliers since they double and remain sticky.
Collecting 5 bonus symbols activates Candy Bonus, which also awards 10 free spins but with a dramatically different setup. Before the first spin begins, the entire 7x7 grid fills with random multipliers ranging from 1x to 1024x distributed across all 49 positions.
You start with guaranteed multipliers everywhere. Even modest winning clusters immediately multiply by whatever values occupy those positions. Unlike Party Bonus where you build multipliers gradually, Candy Bonus frontloads the multiplier potential. The tradeoff is that multipliers don't stick between spins and the bonus costs significantly more to purchase directly.
Extra Chance costs 3x your base bet per spin and increases bonus trigger probability by 500%. At $1 base bet, you pay $3 total per spin. Mathematically, this reduces the average spins between bonus triggers from around 250 spins to approximately 50 spins.
For players with limited bankroll or session time, Extra Chance helps reach bonus rounds faster. However, your cost per spin triples, so you need bonus wins to justify the increased expenditure. Track your results: if bonuses consistently return less than 100x on average, Extra Chance erodes bankroll faster than standard play.
Party Bonus buy costs 100x your bet. At $1 bet level, you pay $100 for guaranteed 10 free spins with sticky multipliers. Candy Bonus costs 250x bet ($250 at $1 stakes) but starts with the full board pre-multiplied.
Party Bonus offers more balanced risk-reward. You might build moderate multipliers that produce 150-300x total wins. Candy Bonus has higher variance because you either hit big clusters on high pre-multiplied positions for 500x+ returns, or you miss connections and waste the expensive buy. The 1024x positions mean nothing if winning clusters don't land on them.
The 96.00% RTP applies universally across base game, Extra Chance, Party Bonus, and Candy Bonus modes. Paperclip Gaming designed Candy Rush with high volatility characteristics. Long dry spells without significant wins are normal, balanced by occasional large hits when multipliers and cluster sizes align favorably.
Expect roughly 25-30% of spins to produce any win in base game. Most wins return less than 5x your bet. The slot's mathematical model concentrates payouts in less frequent but larger wins during bonus rounds or when powered-up symbols trigger multiple explosions during extended tumble sequences.
Start with base game to understand tumble rhythms and powered-up symbol frequency. Notice which symbol combinations create longest tumble chains. Golden Bear and Ice Cream Sundae clusters extended by cascades often reach 10x+ returns even without major multiplier buildup.
If using Extra Chance, maintain disciplined bankroll management. Calculate that your effective cost per spin triples. A 100-spin session costs $300 instead of $100 at $1 base bet. Ensure your bankroll covers enough spins to reasonably expect hitting the bonus you're paying to access more frequently.
During Party Bonus, the first 3-4 spins establish your multiplier foundation. Hope for powered-up symbols early that can spread doubled multipliers across the grid. Once you build 256x or 512x positions, even small clusters hitting those spots generate substantial wins. The final spins capitalize on multipliers built earlier.
In Candy Bonus, scan the pre-filled multiplier board before spins begin. Note where the 512x and 1024x values sit. Mentally target those positions for the best potential returns. Larger clusters connecting through high-multiplier zones determine whether the expensive bonus buy pays off.
Candy Rush displays the 7x7 grid prominently on mobile screens with symbols sized for easy visibility. Controls position at the bottom with large touch targets for bet adjustment and spin button. The whimsical pastel theme with light blue-to-pink gradient background provides good contrast against the dark grid, making symbols easily distinguishable.
Powered-up symbol indicators show clearly with gold borders and star overlays. Position multipliers display in the upper-left corner of each grid cell, readable even on smaller phone screens. The interface prioritizes gameplay clarity over decorative elements, ensuring smooth operation on mobile devices where most sessions occur.
All payout values multiply by your bet amount and any position multipliers. Cluster size directly impacts base payout tier. Position multipliers then multiply the base win, creating exponential potential when multiple high multipliers combine with large clusters.
