Most of us love to eat candies, but we have to admit that we also love how they look, candies always look cute, colorful and teasing. Maybe that’s the reason why candy theme is so often used in advertisements, clothing and other areas.
Online gaming is no exception and candy theme is very commonly used as an inspiration theme for pokies. That is what we can see in IGT newest release called Candy Bars. The name is simple and perfectly describes what the game is about.
This is the newest game from IGT software provider and everything about this game is interesting and worth mentioning. What makes this game so appealing is the humor it has, all of the candies have facial expressions and it makes them look very funny.
Developers
Candy Bars is the newest game release coming from IGT software. They are one of the leaders in the gaming industry and they are known for their innovative ideas, branded pokies and the passion for perfection. They have a large selection of games and we are happy to see Candy Bars being a part of their collection.
How to play
This game doesn’t look like a standard pokie as it has 4 reels and 50 pay lines. With that, the minimum bets are set to 0.75$, since the 75 coins on 50 pay lines is the minimum amount.
Players can vary their bets by changing the coin sizes and the maximum bets are set to 225$ per spin. The pay lines are fixed and can’t be changed and for the player’s comfort there is also an Auto play option.
Features
Candy Bars truly is an outstanding game and the features it has are really interesting as well. Having 4 reels, this game has different symbols, two types of 7 icons and three types of candies and multipliers.
What is great about this pokie is that all of these symbols are stacked, so the player has a chance to get great winning combinations with stacked symbols, as even the multipliers can come up stacked.
Having that said, when there are stacked wins, they are called blackout wins and then the player has a chance to discover really great winnings, for example red 7s which are the symbols with the highest value, in a blackout win can pay even 25,000 coins.
Since there are wild multipliers that have a value of 2x, when appearing next to each other, two 2x multiplier will give players a 4x multiplied line win, so that only increases players chances of great wins. Another reason this game stands out is the fact that it has no regular bonus round, no free spins or pick bonuses.
But that is being compensated by the fact that the player has chances to get one of 3 progressive jackpot wins and that might happen more often than someone may think. Whenever there is a reel with chocolate bar covering the background of the reel, starting from reel 2, the player will get one of the jackpots attached.
If only reel 2 is covered, smallest jackpot is won, if reels 2 and 3 are covered with chocolate bars, medium jackpot is won, but if reels 2, 3 and 4 are covered, the mega jackpot is won.
Having 3 different jackpots definitely makes this game more interesting to many players and having stacked symbols can be really exciting both visually and payout wise.
Maximums payout
This game can definitely be proud of it’s great winning potential. If a player manages to get a blackout win of red 7 icons, he’ll be paid 25,000 coins.
For the second highest paying symbol blackout win the player will get half of that amount. And besides there are three great jackpots to win, so players can definitely look forward to great payouts.
Summary
Candy Bars is a good addition to IGT games collection. First of all it has 4 reels instead of the common 5 reels, and with 4 reels it offers 50 pay lines, blackout wins and chances to win progressive jackpots.
All of these things are combined in this one, cute looking game, where you’ll see different candies like number 7, which is very commonly used in pokies, and wild multipliers.
Although it has no standard bonus features, it offers stacked symbols, three jackpots and wild multipliers. The design is pleasant, colorful, yet tasteful and players will still enjoy it even after a long session. We think that this game has a great winning potential and is definitely worth trying out for real money.
