Our editorial rating for slots, computed the same way for every game from the figures on this page: the return (its top and its lowest configuration), the top win, whether that win rewards the game's volatility, the depth of its features, and how much of its data the studio publishes itself. Where a figure is not available, that part is left out rather than guessed. It rates the game, not a casino or the studio, and it is not a prediction of what you will win.

Our reading

Pragmatic Play's client hub for operators lists Sugar Rush 1000 in three return configurations: 96.53%, 95.50% and 94.50%. The 2.03-point gap costs about €5 more an hour at €0.50 a spin and 500 spins an hour. Two other figures circulate: the studio's public game page prints 96.00%, and BigWinBoard and SlotCatalog give 97.50% as the top configuration. Neither appears in the hub, so neither is shown as a configuration here.

On a 7×7 grid, clusters of five or more adjacent symbols pay and tumble away. Each exploded symbol marks its spot; a second explosion there adds a multiplier from x2 that doubles with every further hit, up to x1,024, and applies to any cluster formed over it.

Three or more scatters give at least 10 free spins in which the marked spots and their multipliers stay for the whole round. Pragmatic's client hub gives the odds: a base-game win once in 2.9 spins, free spins once in 323, a win above 1,000× once in 34,600 and the 25,000× maximum once in 12.8 million. Free spins can be bought for 100× or 500× the bet.

The studio's own page is read first. Third-party databases are research sources: we name them, and do not link to them. A studio can supply a game in more than one return configuration, and the casino chooses one. A higher figure at one source and a lower one at another usually means they read different configurations, not that one is wrong.

Questions

What people ask about this game.

The sources we read list 96.53%, 95.50%, 94.50%. Each is a configuration of the same game; the casino chooses which one runs.

25,000× the stake.

High. Higher volatility means longer dry runs between wins and bigger swings in a session.

Because a studio can ship several configurations and each casino chooses one. A review that quotes a single figure is quoting one configuration.
