Sugar Rush 1000

Sugar Rush 1000 is a 7x7 cluster-pays slot from Pragmatic Play, released in March 2024, with 96.53% RTP, high volatility and a 25,000x max win. Wins come from clusters of 5 or more candies, and spots that win repeatedly gain multipliers of up to 1,024x.

How Sugar Rush 1000 works

The base is Sugar Rush: a 7x7 grid with no paylines, where clusters of 5 or more matching candies touching horizontally or vertically pay. Winning candies explode, new ones drop in and you can win again on the same spin, which is how cascading reels work.

Three things change from the first game. The spot multipliers go up to 1,024x instead of 128x, the max win rises from 5,000x to 25,000x, and there is a second bonus buy, Super Free Spins. In our demo the bet runs from 0.20 to 240 in the demo's currency (dollars); the range at your casino depends on its own currency.

Sugar Rush 1000 symbols and payouts

Pays are multiples of your total bet, for clusters of 5, 10 and 15 or more, and the candies pay the same as in the original:

Small clusters of the bears pay back less than your stake, as in the original. What lifts the ceiling is the spot multipliers, not the paytable.

Sugar Rush 1000 bonus features

Spot multipliers up to 1,024x

When a winning candy explodes it marks its spot. The first explosion adds no multiplier; if a candy explodes on the same spot again, a 2x multiplier starts and doubles with every further explosion: 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512 and 1,024x. If a win touches several multiplier spots, their values are added together.

On a €1 spin, 10 lollipops pay 5x, which is €5. Through a spot at 64x you collect €320, and through one that has reached 1,024x, €5,120. In the original, the same cluster through a spot at its 128x cap paid €640.

Free spins

Landing 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7 scatters wins 10, 12, 15, 20 or 30 free spins, and the same number is added if scatters land again during the round. In the base game the marked spots clear when the cascades stop. In free spins they stay until the round ends, so the multipliers keep growing. A round that reaches 25,000x ends at once.

Bonus buy

Where the casino and your market allow it, the bonus buy has two options:

• Free spins: 100x your bet, €100 on a €1 bet.
• Super Free Spins: 500x your bet, €500 on a €1 bet. All 49 spots start with a 2x multiplier.

Neither is guaranteed to pay back what it costs, and the dearer one has the lowest RTP of the three ways to play: 96.44%, against 96.53% without buying.

RTP, volatility and max win

The rules inside the game give an RTP of 96.53%, and Pragmatic Play's game page says 96.00%. Because the two disagree, trust what the info screen shows at your casino, since each casino chooses which version to run. Between the base game (96.53%) and Super Free Spins (96.44%) the gap is 0.09 points, about 9 cent for every €100 staked.

Volatility is high: wins come less often, but a big one in a short spell is more likely than in a low-volatility slot. The max win is 25,000x your stake, which is €5,000 on a 20 cent spin or €25,000 on €1, and it applies in the base game and in free spins.

Theme and design

It is a candy slot with the same lollipop, heart, jellybean, star and gummy bears as the original; the scatter is a gumball machine inside a golden rocket. In our library it is filed as a cartoon slot and a pink slot.

How to play the Sugar Rush 1000 demo

1. Open the demo on this page. It asks for no account or deposit.
2. Set your bet with the controls in the game.
3. Spin and watch a marked spot: with 1,024x in play, the big wins depend on one spot exploding many times.
4. Open the paytable and the rules inside the game to see the pays and the RTP.
5. If the demo shows the bonus buys, try both and compare what they cost.

The demo does not show the RTP version your casino runs or its bonus terms, and bonus buys may be switched off in some markets. Nothing you win in the demo can be cashed out.

Sugar Rush 1000 and Pragmatic Play

Playing Sugar Rush 1000 for real money in Ireland

Ireland's licensing is changing. Under the Gambling Regulation Act 2024 the GRAI has licensed remote betting since 1 July 2026, but licences for online gaming are only due from 2027. Until then, check which licence a casino holds before you deposit.

Moving from demo to real play changes three things: your wins become cashable, the casino picks the RTP version, and bonuses carry wagering requirements. The casinos on this page come from our Irish casino rankings, which show each one's licence; make sure the game is in the lobby before you sign up.

Real-money play is for adults 18+ only. Set a limit before you start. If it stops being fun, GamblingCare.ie runs a free 24-hour helpline on 1800 936 725, and our responsible gambling page lists more help.
