Sweet Alchemy

Sweet Alchemy – Gameplay

Since Sweet Alchemy is a cascading slot, set on a 5×5 grid, wins are attributed slightly differently. Clusters of 4 or more like symbols result in a win.

Basically, whenever a win lands on the reels – the symbols involved in the win are destroyed. They are then replaced with new symbols. This is the nature of a cascading slot, essentially giving players multiple tries to win in a single spin. Other popular Play’n GO cascading slots include Moon Princess, Gemix and Viking Runecraft.

These slots are beloved for a reason, and Sweet Alchemy is no exception to the rule. Click on the expanding sections below for more information on each feature.

Sugar Rush Meter

All wins contribute to filling the Sugar Rush meter. There are four levels to which the Sugar Rush meter can be filled:

• If the Sugar Rush meter is filled with 6 symbols in one game round, 2 Regular Wilds replace 2 symbols on the grid. This will again form winning combos, which again contributes wins to filling up the next level of the Sugar Rush meter.
• If the Sugar Rush meter is filled with 13 symbols in one round, 2 Striped Wilds will replace 2 symbols on the grid. Striped Wilds act as any other symbols on the reels to create winning combos. In addition, it will also remove all symbols on the same row or column. These removed symbols contribute towards filling up the Sugar Rush meter.
• If the Sugar Rush meter is filled with 25 symbols, 2 Dotted Wilds replace 2 random symbols on the grid. The Dotted Wilds create wins and remove all of the randomly selected symbols from the grid. Again, creating wins, which fills up the meter further.
• If the Sugar Rush meter is filled with 38 symbols, it’ll trigger the Mix the Elixir Free Round feature. This also comes with 3 different ‘Candy Spells’. Every additional 3 symbols collected after this in a single spin will award extra Candy Spells. This can go on up to maximum of 7 Candy Spells.

Mix the Elixir Free Round

The Mix the Elixir Free Round happens on a 9×9 grid, instead of the main game 5×5 grid.

The aim of the game during this Free Round is to complete ‘collections’ in order to trigger the Elixir of Power bonus. The more ‘collections’ you complete, the higher the rewards in the bonus game.

Throughout, the Alchemist herself will cast several spells to help you out with this task.

When no more cascading wins land, the first Candy Spell will be cast. Once the cascading wins stop again, the second Candy Spell will be cast.

There are three types of Candy Spells that the Alchemist can conjure up:

• Mixed Candy: during this, all the symbols on the grid are shuffled around to create potential new wins.
• Sweet Surprise: 7 – 12 Wild symbols will appear at random on the grid. Even if these Wilds don’t form part of any winning combination, the ‘remove’ effect is activated anyway. This will eliminate symbols of the same kind from the reels, making new wins possible.

Elixir of Power Bonus

Once triggered, the Elixir of Power bonus will show up as a chocolate square slab.

Players must click on the squares of the chocolate slab to reveal magic potions (elixirs) until they stumble across 3 that match. The prizes that are bestowed once the matching symbols are found is dependent on the collection in the Mix the Elixir Free Round.

Level 1	Level 2	Level 3
2x total bet	3x total bet	5x total bet
3x total bet	5x total bet	10x total bet

 

Progress Map

If players manage to complete the Free Round collection in full, they will also get to progress on the map.

The map is a colorful little thing, which tracks your steps as you collect and advance in the features. Every time you go up 3 levels, you’ll unlock a treasure chest.

These treasure chests contain cash prizes equivalent to 15% of the player’s main game winnings since the last time a treasure chest was opened.
