Sweet 16 Blast! Slots
We always hope a slot game title is going to get our attention, no matter the reason why. Sweet 16 Blast certainly did that, but the game must keep that attention, doesn't it? So, is this going to manage it, and if so, how will it do that? We've loaded and played it, so we have some answers for you here today.
You might recognize the name of this game studio
It hails from Spin Logic Gaming, so get set for their usual top-notch efforts showing through on the reels.
There is a demo available for you if you want to try it
We think this is the ideal starting point for any slot, and since Sweet 16 Blast does have that demo, it's great to check it out first.
We bet you've already figured out the theme
This one is certainly sweet enough, featuring candy in all shapes and sizes. We've seen this theme many times before, but it looks promising here.
Everything is edible in this design
Even the mountains are edible by the look of things. There is a range of goodies landing on the reels, but lots of candy-filled delights set the scene for the backdrop too.
What should you expect from this big game?
Firstly, it really is big, measuring 6 x 5 rather than the usual and somewhat tiny 5 x 3 arrangement. We didn't notice any progressive prizes, but we think your attention will be focused on the reels anyway.
The scatter symbol is shown as a heart-shaped candy bearing the message Sweet 16. Four or more of these grant a scatter prize. There isn't a wild to help you along the way in this game, but you might spot a multiplier symbol. This is a gummy bear in a bright green color.
How many paylines are there?
Sweet 16 Blast does not go for paylines, as you might have guessed given the size of the playing area. It doesn't offer cluster pays either though. You just need to find enough identical symbols in one spin to get a prize. This is typically eight or more, but there is no need for them to touch each other to contribute to the prize combination.
The lowest bet is a surprise in Sweet 16 Blast
Given the format and size of the game, we were pleased to see the minimum spin bet was just 20 cents. The game does come with higher values too for those who want to bet a little more. The top bet per spin is $20.
The paytable is marked by a pink info button
Look for a pink circular button and you'll find it there. It explains everything about the game - ideal for reading prior to your first spin.
Does this game include a bonus round?
You do get the chance to score some Cascading Wins, sure. Whenever a winning group of symbols appears - remember there should be eight or more unless it's a scatter prize - they'll all disappear once the prize is paid. You then see the remaining ones on the screen drop, with new ones filling the spaces appearing above them. This might generate one or more new prizes, and if it does, you'll receive those and then get the same cascading process happening again. There's no limit to this - it lasts for as long as you can find more prizes.
Does this mean there are no free spins available?
Surprisingly, you can score some of these as well. Find four or more scatters to receive 10 free games. This is where the multiplier bears begin to appear too. Whenever they do, they'll show a multiplier worth a minimum of 2x and possibly up to 100x. When you trigger a prize and the cascading wins feature begins, watch those bears. Once the cascade comes to a stop, you'll get the total multipliers offered by the bears still in view. This grand multiplier is then applied to the prizes won throughout that cascading effect. While you're playing the free spins, three or more scatters landing anywhere in a game will produce another five freebies.
RTP info is unavailable
See if the casino can offer further details - nothing appears in the paytable.
Does Sweet 16 Blast get a sweet rating from our team?
Absolutely, but this is not one to play on an empty stomach. If you're ready for a sweet experience, this game certainly provides it. There are some excellent elements in play if you can find the free spins, gummy bears, and cascading effects. We are ranking it as an 8.5 out of 10 slot game.
Where are the best prizes hiding?
They surely must be inside the free spins, especially if you can string some cascading wins together, find some gummy bears, and get bigger prizes thanks to those.
Make sure you test this one first
Yes, it does make it easier to work out what's happening, although it doesn't take long to do that.
Check the real game at your favorite casino too
Sweet 16 Blast is an awesome entry to the Spin Logic Gaming collection, and we think many players will find the minimum wager appealing enough to try it for real if it suits them.
