Sugar Rush 1000: follow the multiplier positions
Sugar Rush 1000 gives its 7 × 7 candy grid room to build: multiplier positions can double up to 1,024x, and the free-spin feature keeps those positions between spins. Clusters still start with five matching candies touching side by side. Follow the positions as closely as the symbols; they decide how much a winning cluster pays.
Released by Pragmatic Play in 2024, this slot suits readers who like a bonus round that develops across several spins. Its higher multiplier ceiling and optional Super Free Spins distinguish it from the original Sugar Rush.

Five touching candies start a payout
The board has 49 positions in seven columns and seven rows. A win needs at least five identical ordinary symbols connected horizontally or vertically. A bend is fine: the cluster can spread across adjacent rows and columns. A diagonal touch alone does not connect two candies, and five matching candies scattered across the board do not make one cluster.
Sugar Rush 1000 has seven ordinary symbols: pink round candy, orange heart, purple jelly bean, green star, and red, purple and orange gummy bears. It has no Wild substitution symbol. The gumball-machine Scatter follows a separate counting rule and can appear on every reel.
A cluster takes the payout for its full size once. For seven green stars, use the seven-symbol tier, rather than adding the five-, six- and seven-symbol tiers. If two separate clusters win on the same result, calculate each one and add their awards.
A plain-cluster example
Hypothetically, five connected pink round candies at a €1 total bet pay €1 × 1 = €1 before position multipliers. That calculation assumes the cluster lands; it says nothing about how often it will land.
The grid remembers where a candy win happened
After a win, the winning candies disappear. The remaining symbols fall into the gaps, and fresh symbols enter from above. Another winning cluster starts another tumble. This continues until the refilled board has no winning combination; the base spin's tumble awards are then credited together.
Each winning explosion also marks the position it occupied. A second winning explosion in that same position creates a 2x multiplier. Each further winning explosion there doubles its value: 4x, 8x, 16x, 32x, 64x, 128x, 256x, 512x and finally 1,024x per position.
The candy itself can change as symbols fall. What persists is the position underneath it. A multiplier contributes when a winning cluster occupies that position. A number sitting elsewhere on the grid adds nothing to that cluster.
During a base spin
Marks and multipliers last for that spin's tumble sequence. When the sequence runs out of wins, the positions clear before the next base spin.
During free spins
Marks and multipliers stay for the whole free-spin round, including the gaps between spins. Later winning explosions can keep doubling them within the same round.
Add the covered positions, then multiply the cluster
When a winning cluster covers several effective multipliers, add those values. Multiply that cluster's ordinary pay by the resulting sum. You do not multiply the position values together, and you do not use every multiplier visible on the board.
A hypothetical seven-star cluster
Take a €2 total bet and seven connected green stars, which pay 0.75x before multipliers. Assume that this evaluated cluster covers effective 2x, 4x and 8x positions. The sum is 2 + 4 + 8 = 14x, and the cluster award is €2 × 0.75 × 14 = €21.
A separate winning cluster uses the multipliers under its own positions. Its calculated award is added to the €21, subject to the total round limit. A cluster covering no effective multiplier uses its ordinary pay without a multiplier uplift.
The displayed 1,024x is a ceiling for one position. It is neither the game's total payout cap nor a blanket multiplier applied to the whole screen. That distinction matters when several clusters win together.
Every candy payout, before position multipliers
These values are multiples of the total bet. Choose the number of connected symbols in one cluster, then apply any effective position multiplier sum. The 15+ tier covers clusters of 15 symbols or more; smaller tiers are not added to it.

Pink round candy has the highest ordinary pay, from 1x for five symbols to 150x for a cluster of at least 15. Orange gummy bears pay 0.2x to 20x across those same sizes. A lower-paying candy can still produce a larger actual award when its cluster covers a stronger multiplier sum.
Scatters award up to 30 spins and preserve the grid
Gumball-machine Scatters can be anywhere on the screen; they do not need to touch. Three through seven Scatters trigger the free-spin counts shown here. The same counts during the feature award the same number of additional spins.
- 3 Scatters
- 10 free spins
Also +10 on a retrigger.
- 4 Scatters
- 12 free spins
Also +12 on a retrigger.
- 5 Scatters
- 15 free spins
Also +15 on a retrigger.
- 6 Scatters
- 20 free spins
Also +20 on a retrigger.
- 7 Scatters
- 30 free spins
Also +30 on a retrigger.
The feature uses special reels and keeps the marked positions and their multipliers until the round ends. A tumble sequence can stop without erasing them, so the next free spin resumes with those positions still in place. Retriggered spins extend that same round.
Free spins use the stake that triggered the feature. You are not charged another base stake for each feature spin. The accumulated win belongs to that feature round, which still has the 25,000x total limit.
100x entry or a 500x start with every position at 2x
Where the game menu offers feature purchases, ordinary Buy Free Spins costs 100x the current total bet. Super Free Spins costs 500x and puts a starting 2x multiplier on all 49 positions. Further winning explosions develop those positions under the free-spin rules.
Both purchases have a trigger result that can randomly contain three, four, five, six or seven Scatters. The starting spin count follows the Scatter table. Paying for the Super option changes the grid's starting multipliers; it does not fix the trigger at seven Scatters or promise 30 starting spins.
Ordinary purchase
At a hypothetical €0.20 total bet, €0.20 × 100 = €20 buys entry. Positions build through winning explosions during the feature.
Super purchase
At the same €0.20 bet, €0.20 × 500 = €100 buys entry with every position already at 2x. That is five times the ordinary entry cost.
The stake used to calculate cluster wins and the round cap remains the selected €0.20 in this example. The €20 or €100 purchase price is a separate cost. It does not become the base bet for a 25,000x payout calculation.
The EUR configuration limits each type of purchase to €5,000. For the 100x option, that corresponds to a base stake of up to €50; for the 500x option, up to €10. The normal game's higher maximum stake does not extend those purchase limits. Available buttons and stake choices depend on the game's casino configuration.
25,000x ends the round, even with spins remaining
25,000 times the bet is the maximum round award in the base game and in free spins. Reaching it ends the round immediately and forfeits any remaining feature spins. A large calculated cluster cannot take the round beyond that limit.
How the cap trims a hypothetical award
At a €1 bet, a 15+ pink-candy cluster pays 150x before position multipliers. If an effective 1,024x position applies to that cluster, the provisional calculation is €1 × 150 × 1,024 = €153,600. With no earlier win in the round, the credited amount is limited to €25,000.
If the round has already awarded an amount W, the room left under the cap is max(0, bet × 25,000 − W). This is cap arithmetic for an assumed result, not a method for producing that result.
The EUR configuration's €240 maximum normal stake gives a documented maximum cash amount of €6,000,000, because €240 × 25,000 = €6,000,000. That amount belongs to those stake settings; it is not a universal casino withdrawal limit or a promised win.
The catalogue's 96% and the game's selected RTP
Pragmatic Play lists 96.00% RTP for Sugar Rush 1000 in its product catalogue. The CV configuration described by the English in-game help has separate figures for normal play and its two purchase modes:
- Regular play
- 95.50% RTP
English CV configuration.
- Buy Free Spins
- 95.51% RTP
The 100x purchase mode in that configuration.
- Super Free Spins
- 95.43% RTP
The 500x purchase mode in that configuration.
The 96.00% catalogue figure and the CV mode figures describe different settings. Use the RTP shown by the information menu for the version you open, including the mode you select. A title match alone does not establish the same RTP.
RTP describes theoretical return over a large volume of bets. For example, at 95.50%, hypothetical aggregate turnover of R1,000 corresponds to R1,000 × 0.955 = R955 in theoretical return. Turnover can include repeatedly staking winnings; it is not the same thing as a deposit. The calculation does not predict an individual session's balance or the probability of a winning spin.
The game is labelled high volatility. Its position multipliers can concentrate substantial awards into developed clusters, while a round can finish before those positions produce a win. The label provides no timetable for a feature, no hit-frequency percentage and no guarantee that a purchased round will recover its price.
Check a slot's RTP in its information menu before comparing two versions with the same title.
Stake displays belong to their currency and configuration
The EUR rulebook for game build cv98-1.0.50706 specifies normal total bets of €0.20 to €240. The English CV help instead displays R3.00 to R3,600.00. These are separate currency and configuration ranges; the R values are kept in their printed denomination and are not converted into EUR or PLN.
The information button marked i opens the rules and paytable. The BET label is the current total stake; the + and − controls open or change the stake selection. CREDIT and BET can switch between cash and coin displays, so read the unit alongside the number. Changing the display unit does not change a cluster's payout multiple.
The mobile version uses the same rules, stakes and wins as its matching desktop configuration. Its controls can adapt to the smaller screen. Phone layout is therefore a matter of finding the same information and bet menu, rather than a separate set of cluster rules.
What the 1000 edition changes from Sugar Rush
Pragmatic Play announced Sugar Rush 1000 on 18 March 2024. The familiar candy theme remains, while its limits make the distinction concrete.
Original Sugar Rush
A position multiplier can reach 128x, with a 5,000x round maximum. This is the original edition's scale.
Read the original Sugar Rush rulesSugar Rush 1000
A position multiplier can reach 1,024x, with a 25,000x round maximum. Its 500x Super purchase begins with all positions at 2x.
The larger limits expand what a developed round can award. They do not establish how often those limits are reached. Sugar Rush Super Scatter is another edition with its own rules; a search name combining "1000" and "Super Scatter" should not be used to mix their features.
The practical fit is the persistent grid. Sugar Rush 1000 gives you a reason to follow where clusters have already paid across a feature, as well as the number of matching candies in the next result. Choose between the original and 1000 by those mechanics, the configured RTP and the cost of any purchase you intend to use.
Sugar Rush 1000 versus Sweet Bonanza 1000
The two candy-themed games ask you to follow different things. Sugar Rush 1000 needs five adjacent matching symbols on a 7 × 7 grid. Sweet Bonanza 1000 counts at least eight matching symbols anywhere on a 6 × 5 grid, without requiring them to touch.
The multiplier is the bigger distinction. Sugar Rush develops positions underneath winning clusters, and free spins keep those positions throughout the feature. Sweet Bonanza 1000 has multiplier bombs during free spins: at the end of a tumble sequence, the bombs add together and multiply that sequence's combined win. Its bombs stay for that sequence, rather than persisting as a grid of multipliers across the whole feature.
What the Super entry price changes
Both have a documented 500x Super purchase, but its starting advantage differs. Sugar Rush 1000 puts 2x on every position. Sweet Bonanza 1000 gives its multiplier bombs a minimum value of 20x in Super mode; that floor does not guarantee a bomb, a minimum round payout or recovery of the purchase price.
Choose Sugar Rush 1000 for the feature that builds a remembered board. Sweet Bonanza 1000 is the comparison to make when you prefer an anywhere count and a multiplier calculation settled separately for each tumble sequence.

Questions and answers
What changes with Sugar Rush 1000's Super Free Spins purchase?
Where offered, ordinary Buy Free Spins costs 100x the current total bet. Super Free Spins costs 500x and starts all 49 positions at 2x. Either purchase can trigger three to seven Scatters, so the Super option does not promise 30 starting spins. The purchase price stays separate from the bet used for the 25,000x round cap.
What is Sugar Rush 1000's RTP?
Pragmatic Play lists 96.00% in its catalogue. In the English CV configuration, regular play is 95.50%, the 100x Buy Free Spins mode is 95.51%, and the 500x Super Free Spins mode is 95.43%. These are different settings; the title alone does not establish the RTP of the version you open.
Is a 1,024x position the largest possible Sugar Rush 1000 award?
No. 1,024x is the ceiling for one position. The whole round can award up to 25,000x the bet in base play or free spins. Reaching that cap ends the round immediately, with remaining feature spins forfeited.
