If you'd told us years ago that there would one day be an entire genre of Candy-themed casino games, and that it would be one of the most popular genres around, we would have laughed all the way to the sweet shop. Of course, we would also have been wrong to do so, because that day is here and candy-themed pokies are all the rage, especially in New Zealand. There are hundreds to choose from, but if you don't have time to explore them all, read on below to find out our top four.
Where to Play Candy Casino Games
HOT IN NZ!
Sweet Bonanza
One of the most famous candy-themed games of all is Sweet Bonanza slot. This is a six-reel pokie with five rows that was released in 2019, and what makes it so special is that it whisks you away to a fantasy world where everything is made from something sweet. A Tumble Feature gives you the chance to land multiple wins from each spin, and if you land four lollipop scatter symbols you'll trigger a Free Spins round with random multipliers worth up to x100. Sweet Bonanza remains one of the most popular pokie in NZ to this day.
Candy Stars
Imagine a candy-themed pokie, but put it in outer space and make sure the upbeat soundtrack is familiar enough to bring the word funkiest back into common use. No, actually, don't do any of that because Pragmatic Play has already beaten you to it. The game is Candy Stars, and it also features a Tumble mechanic, Sticky Wilds with increasing multipliers and a Free Spins round.
Sweet Bonanza Candyland
This is a Live Casino game based on the Sweet Bonanza pokie described a few moments ago. The game is set in the same sugary world as the original pokie, but here the action focuses on a colourful and prize-laden Sweet Bonanza wheel. This has 54 segments, and your task is to bet on which segment will be selected on the next spin. Bet on Sweet Spins or Candy Drop segments and you'll get to participate in those bonus games if your bet wins.
Sugar Rush
Sugar Rush is a cluster pays pokie from Pragmatic Play that was released in 2022. It is played on a 7x7 grid and symbols include colourful jelly bears, jelly beans, and candy shapes. A Tumble Feature is triggered after every win, and a Multiplier Spots feature causes particularly lucky spots on the grid to take on a multiplier value that can grow to as much as 128x. Land three or more gumball rocket scatter symbols to trigger free spins and win up to 5,000 times your bet.
Help Yourself to a Sweet Treat
There are so many great candy-themed games in the world that we could continue for quite some time with other titles like Sweet PowerNudge, Sweet Alchemy, Sweet Rush Megaways and more. However, the four games highlighted above are the ones at the top of our favourites list, and they are also proving very popular at NZ casinos. If you're a fan of sugar, spice, and all things nice, head to your favourite casino and help yourself to a sweet treat today.
