Just in time for the summer hols comes the sweet and tasty Sugar Parade slot, the latest release from Microgaming. 2017 has seen a mixed bag from MG studios – highlight has been Beautiful Bones – but this is one we definitely like.
There are 5 reels and 15 paylines to this video slot and a pick me bonus round. But the real fun comes with the Free Spins, with up to 20 of these available if you land enough scatters and then re-trigger in the bonus round. They come with a 3x multiplier, so there’s plenty of chances to win – in fact up to 1658x your stake if everything comes together for you.
The game seems to play at a low to medium variance, so it’s easier on the bankroll than other slots we’ve looked at recently, and you can enjoy some pleasant play time with regular wins. Sugar Parade RTP is 96.5%.
Microgaming unleashed this game on 29th June 2017 and it is already available to play in many of the UK’s best online casinos. Take it for a spin in free to play or real play modes at one of our favourites, VideoSlots casino. Or, if you want to know more, read on for our full review and explanation of the game’s features and gameplay.
There are plenty of sugar-based slots games out there – IGT’s Candy Bar, Microgaming’s own Candy Dreams, and Eyecon’s Sugar Train are just a few. The world of sweet shops, chocolate bars and ice creams lends itself well to video slots. And visually, MG’s Sugar Parade is a sumptuous feast!
The backdrop to the reels is a fantastical world of candy and sugar and the symbols themselves are all bright and colourful. The reels sit surrounded by a candy-striped sweet of some kind.
The usual card symbols from 9 through to Ace are there, then various sweets and ice creams with faces on them. The two most important symbols to look out for are the bonus – a yellow ice cream that plays the sax – and the scatter – a big cake with a crown on its head. These two will trigger bonus features that can set off some nice wins for you.
In Microgaming’s Sugar Parade you can set your coin size from 0.01 to 1.0 and the number of coins you bet per line from 1 to 5 to adjust your overall stake per spin. That gives you a bet range of 15p to £75 per spin – suitable for most players. There are options to jump straight to Max Bet if you wish, or set the game to Autoplay mode.
Onto the good stuff then, and there are two important features in Sugar Parade.
Pick-Me Bonus Round: First up, you must land 3 or more bonus symbols – the sax-playing ice cream – starting from reel 1 on the left. The more bonus symbols you land, the more picks you get. There are 12 balloons to choose from and each will reveal a cash prize.
Free Spins: Land 3 or more of the scatter symbols – the cake with the crown – anywhere on the reels to set off the star event, the Free Spins round. You get 10 free spins, all with 3x multiplier applied to wins. And you get a further 10 if you re-trigger with 3 or more scatters during this Free Spins round. This can bring you a top win of up to 1658x your stake with each spin.
Sugar Parade is a standard slot, using a well-worn theme and some pretty basic features and gameplay. However, it does look great! 20 Free Spins is a modest amount, but with the 3x multiplier can lead to some decent wins. The game is low to medium variance and if you’re looking for something new to try this summer, it’s well worth a shot.
