Candy Monsta review
A small monster, a castle made of candy and letter symbols built from sweets: BGaming's 2021 slot keeps its toolkit short. It runs on five reels, three rows and 20 paylines, with a candy wild, Candy Castle scatters and free spins in which every wild sticks. The one number that stands out is less flattering. At 94.03%, the RTP leaves a 5.97% house edge, and that cost deserves as much attention as the features.
Where the numbers start
Candy Monsta has one RTP on record, 94.03%, which leaves a house edge of 5.97%. Over a long run that equals about $59.70 kept for every $1,000 wagered.
In session terms, 100 spins at $0.20 cost $1.19 on average, 100 spins at $1 cost $5.97 and 100 spins at $5, or $500 wagered, cost $29.85. The 5.97% house edge is the figure to budget around: it makes every hour of play noticeably dearer than a slot with an edge near 4%.
Our catalogue has no volatility rating or max win for the game. BGaming's own page names a maximum exposure of 2,077x the stake, which would be $2,077 at a $1 bet.
Lines, wilds and scatters
Wins form along 20 paylines on a 5x3 grid. The colourful candy is the wild. It substitutes for any symbol on a line except the scatter, and during the free spins it appears only on reels 2, 3 and 4.
The scatter is the Candy Castle. Three or more anywhere on the reels pay on their own and also trigger the bonus round.
Wild symbol
The candy wild completes line wins by replacing any symbol apart from the scatter. In the free spins it is limited to the three middle reels, which concentrates it where it can join the most lines.
Scatter symbol
Three or more Candy Castle scatters in any position pay a win and award 10 free spins. They do not need to sit on a payline.
Free spins with sticky wilds
The bonus round lasts 10 spins. Its defining rule is that every wild that lands stays locked in place until the round ends. Each new wild therefore adds to the ones already on the reels, and later spins in the round can carry several fixed wilds at once.
According to BGaming, three or more bonus symbols during the round retrigger it, and this can happen an unlimited number of times. Together, sticky wilds and open-ended retriggers are the reason the round carries most of the game's potential.
Sticky Wild
During the free spins, all wild symbols become locked until the end of the round. Because wilds only appear on reels 2, 3 and 4 in this mode, those reels gradually fill with fixed substitutes that count towards every spin left in the round.
Seasonal copies and close matches
Three themed editions came out in 2021: Candy Monsta Halloween, Candy Monsta St.Valentines and Candy Monsta X-mas. All three share the 94.03% RTP, so a holiday look does not change the price of play. Four Lucky Diamonds from the same year also lists 94.03%, Four Lucky Clover from 2020 has the same figure with Low volatility, and Deep Sea from 2019 is a touch higher at 94.14% with Medium volatility.
Who might enjoy it
The rules take a minute to learn, which suits newcomers to slots and players who like a classic line game with one clear bonus. The low RTP is the trade-off. Anyone who weighs value per spin will find many BGaming titles that return more over time, and should try the free demo before committing a budget here.
Pros
- Simple 20-line layout that is easy to learn
- Wilds stay locked for the whole free spins round
- Free spins can be retriggered without a limit, according to the studio
- Free official demo available
Cons
- A 5.97% house edge makes sessions more expensive on average
- No volatility rating in our catalogue
Verdict
Candy Monsta delivers a tidy 20-line game with a candy wild, Candy Castle scatters and a 10-spin bonus where every wild sticks and retriggers have no cap. The catch is the 94.03% RTP, a 5.97% house edge, and no published volatility. The studio's 2,077x exposure is the stated top. Enjoy it for its simplicity, but budget for a 5.97% house edge.
