Candy Links Bonanza Slot by Stakelogic 

It's time for another sweet adventure! When launching Candy Links Bonanza with a 5x5 grid and 3,125 paylines, it is immediately apparent that the provider was drawing inspiration from the legendary puzzle game Candy Crush. To be honest, we find it hard to believe that 9 years after the launch of Candy Crush and the endless number of slot machines inspired by its success, the developers are still producing such slots. It seems like Hurricane Games has added features to the gameplay, but are they enough to make this game stand out from the crowd? Find out in our review.

Bonus Rounds & Free Spins

Free Spins Feature

Free Spins Bonus Round is activated when 3 or more Scatter appears on the playing field. When you receive 3, 4, or 5 Scatter, you will be able to use 10, 15, and 20 free spins, respectively. During the bonus feature, a win multiplier from 1x to 3x can be attached to the Wild symbol, which is added to the total multiplier counter. The multiplier is applied to each win in the bonus round.

Bonus Round

When you win 2 Scatter at once in the base game, you are given a respin. During the re-spin, absolutely all symbols remain in their places, except for those in the middle position, which rotates to get a chance to win. If luck is on your side and the Scatter symbol is in the middle position, it will trigger the Free Spins round.

Jackpots

The Hurricane Links feature can lead to big wins. In the center of the grid is the Wheel of Fortune symbol. When a Hurricane Link combination with a special Wheel of Fortune symbol appears on the reels, you have a chance to spin the Wheel of Fortune. There are 3 different wheels with bigger prizes. First, you start with the Mini Wheel, and if the wheel stops when you upgrade, then you can spin the Big Wheel, which offers mini jackpots and main jackpots, as well as improvement. If the Bonus Wheel stops the wheel this time when updating, you can spin the Grand Wheel, in which you can hit big jackpots.

Candy Links Bonanza contains many bonus features, yet it's intuitive and simple! Even if you don't read the help file or look at the paytable, you will understand the gameplay in a few minutes. The provider has clearly put a lot of effort into creating a beautiful design, but we think the sweets theme is a bit outdated.
