Candy Stars is a Pragmatic Play slot built on a 5x4 grid with 576 ways to win. The game uses a high-volatility model and offers bet sizes from 0.2 to 100. Symbols include candy-themed icons, letter symbols, a star Wild that substitutes for most symbols, and a blue gem Scatter tied to the bonus feature.
The main mechanic is the tumble system, where winning symbols disappear and new ones fall into place for additional wins. Wilds that land on the top row can remain in position through tumbles, with their multiplier increasing after each cascade. In Free Spins, which start with 8 spins after 3 or more Scatters on reels 1, 3 and 5, a top-row Wild is guaranteed and multipliers begin at x2, doubling after each tumble up to x128.
The demo version lets players play for free and practice before playing for real money. The rules also include a buy free spins option, autoplay controls and turbo spin settings, while the maximum round win is capped at 5,000x the bet.
