Sickly sweet
The visuals here are a riot of colour. The dark purple reels are set against a bright pink backdrop and include A to 9 royals as well as more rewarding sweetie-style symbols. The best of them pays 50 times your bet if you land 6 on adjoining reels on the same spin. There’s also a wild that lands in the 4 window positions at the top of the reels.
Up to 117,649 Megaways
Sweet Success (Megaways) uses the Megaways game engine from Big Time Gaming. The number of symbols on each reel changes with each spin. This has an impact on the number of ways to land a winner. The more symbols, the more chances. If the maximum number of symbols are present, you’ll have 117,649 ways to win.
Mystery Symbols
Joining the standard symbols and wild is the Mystery Symbol. All examples of this symbol that fall on the same spin morph into the same matching symbol. A new payout calculation the follows with the newly transformed symbols in position.
Cascading Reels
Like most Megaways slots, Sweet Success Megaways uses cascading reels. After a winning combination hits, those symbols are removed and replaced by ones that drop in from above. A new payout calculation the follows. If a new winner forms, the process is repeated. Land 4 or more cascades in a row to activate the Pick ‘N’ Mix features.
Pick ’N’ Mix features
Land 4, 5 or 6 or more cascade wins in succession to trigger the Pick ‘N’ Mix features – they have more than a hint of Deal or No Deal to it. Pick from the sweets which could reveal cash prizes or free spins. You’ll be made an offer after each pick which you can choose to accept or refuse and pick again.
With 5 or 6 cascades on the triggering spin, the Super and Mega Pick ’N’ Mix features are active which means that bigger cash prizes and more free spins are available.
BonBon Bonus Spins feature
After a pick, you could gain entry to the BonBon Bonus Spins feature. This special bonus awards both free spins and cash prizes together. If you end up with the free spins, your winning chances are boosted by an expanding multiplier which increases by 1x with each cascade win. You can expect to see more Mystery Symbols during the bonus round than in the base game too.
Standard Megaways slot
The design might be on the sugary side but Sweet Success is actually rather simple for a Megaways slot. It doesn’t have all the bells and whistles you’ll find in some other Megaways titles. The game mechanic can still deliver plenty of action thanks to the number of possible Megaways and the cascading reels.
The free spins can be well worth landing too thanks to the multipliers and mystery symbols. As far as variance goes, we’re in the medium range with top wins of 10,000 x your bet on each spin/free spin.
The design and theme might be a bit too sickly for some tastes but Sweet Success is a tasty enough performer. Just in case you’re wondering, it’s the same slot as Deal or No Deal Megaways but without the jackpots.
