Candy Mania Demo Slot - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Introduction 

Satisfy your cravings with this sweet game by KA Gaming. Despite the solitary payline, Candy Mania has enough treats and surprises to provide an action-packed playing experience.

Theme, graphics & soundtrack 

Despite the name, Candy Mania by KA Gaming is not an overload of all things sugary-sweet; instead, players will find a rather basic looking setup and a curious mix of symbols. 

The action takes place on a deep purple set of large reels, which are separated by bright pink lines against a backdrop of unidentifiable coloured shapes and a stripy candy cane to the side of the reels. The developer’s logo features a little too prominently in the backdrop and detracts from the overall theming of the game. 

The symbols, of which there are very few, are a mix of traditional bar icons and candy canes, whilst the bonus symbol is simply the word ‘bonus’ written on a coloured sweet on the fourth reel.

The soundtrack is unusual in that there appears to be some kind of vocal; however, is almost impossible to identify any words. The music that plays during the reel spins is more low-key and fitting to the game.

Candy Mania RTP and variance

The RTP of Candy Mania is currently unknown; however, it has low to medium volatility with small- to moderate-sized wins occurring fairly often. 

We recommend trialling Candy Mania and other KA Gaming free play slots in demo mode here at Slots Temple to get a feel for the gameplay and returns before deciding whether to play them with real money at an online casino. This is especially important given the unknown RTP of the game, as it will enable a more informed choice to be made. There are thousands of free play slots here at Slots Temple just waiting to be explored.

4. There is no fast play option on Candy Mania.

Bet sizes & paytable wins

The minimum bet is 0.15 and the maximum bet is 1,500.

There are just five paying symbols in Candy Mania and four bonus symbols. The game is played on a fixed central payline grid with all wins paying from left to right. 

The highest-paying symbol is the triple candy cane symbol, three of which pay 5,000 when playing with a 1,500 stake. A minimum of three matching symbols are required to generate a return, although mixed symbol combinations count; for example, a triple candy cane symbol with a double and single candy cane is a winning combination. 

Candy Mania bonus features

The bonus features in Candy Mania revolve around the fourth reel, which is dedicated to bonus symbols only and does not contain any paying symbols. There are four different bonuses available, each triggered when it lands on the central payline on a winning spin:

2x multiplier

The 2x multiplier doubles the return of the spin

5x multiplier

You’ve guessed it - the 5x multiplier multiplies the return by five.

Respins

Between one and five respins are awarded when the respin symbol lands on the fourth reel on the central payline during a winning spin. Respins simply play the triggering winning spin multiple times.

Free spins

Players who are lucky enough to land the free spins bonus icon on the fourth reel on the central payline during any winning spin will be awarded ten free spins.

Overall Candy Mania review: our verdict

 
Candy Mania has more to offer than it may appear on the surface. There are four bonuses to aim for; however, the theming is not particularly inspiring and a single payline can become repetitive fairly quickly.
