Sweet Alchemy Slot Review

Dear esteemed readers and long-time sufferers of Casinos.com. I present to you a retrospective slot review that looks back on a game released back in a time of world peace, social harmony, and lower subscription prices for Netflix. The year is 2018, and Play’n GO has just released the slot game Sweet Alchemy

As this is a Sweets/Candy-themed slot, I’ve enlisted none other than Candy Caine, Mistress of the Marshmallow Machines, to sprinkle her saccharine sass over this review. This game is available to you, the reader, as a free demo game. You can play the slot with a free Casinos.com account, from which you can also access the best online casinos, each offering new players a first deposit welcome bonus. 

With the shameful sales pitch now over, I present Candy Caine.

Candy Caine In the Peppermint Caverns beneath Sweet Falls Mistress of the Marshmallow Machines

Darlings, it’s me, Candy Caine, here to sprinkle some sugar dust over this 2018 gem. Sweet Alchemy by Play’n GO is basically like drinking a sherbet potion while twirling inside a cotton candy cloud.

Casinos.com: “Candy, it’s just a slot review.”

Exactly! And I’m reviewing it the only way I know how: with passion, peppermint, and a touch of caramel chaos. So, spin it sweet with me, and let’s see if this sugary spectacle is worth your time or just another stale jellybean in the bottom of the slot jar.

How to Play Sweet Alchemy Slot

The Sweet Alchemy slot presents a five-row, five-reel grid with a Cluster Pays function. The volatility is high, and it comes with an RTP score of 96.50%, which is fairly decent. The jackpot is, however, telling of its age. 3,000 times the betting price is the highest win. Bets range from $0.10 to $100 per spin. So, by way of math, we can calculate the jackpot to be $300,000 at its highest value. 

Wins come about by aligning four or more matching symbols in a vertical or horizontal line. With each win, the Tumble mechanism activates. This takes away winning symbols, which then charges the Sugar Rush counter, and then adds new symbols into the grid. This can then produce further wins in a never-ending motion. Relative to the number of symbols collected, the charger will unlock special wilds that are added to the game. Fill the charger, and you will have unlocked three Wild variants and one of the bonus rounds. 

During play, other special symbols and features can come into play. Let’s take a look at those.

Sweet Alchemy Slot Verdict

Well, there you have it. The end of the slot review for Sweet Alchemy by Play’n GO. I'd like to say that luckily no one was hurt in the making of this review, but unfortunately, Candy Caine overdosed on marshmallows halfway through and had to be revived with a licorice whip. She assures us she enjoyed herself nonetheless.

As for Sweet Alchemy, the game did go on to be a success, and Play’n GO even whipped up sequels like Sweet Alchemy 2 and Sweet Alchemy 100. If you’re a sugar fiend like Candy, this slot will scratch the itch for cascading candy clusters and feature-packed bonuses. Take on the entertainment yourself with the free demo game by joining us at Casinos.com to play this and many more free slots.

My Experience Playing Sweet Alchemy Slot for Real Money

Candy Caine In the Peppermint Caverns beneath Sweet Falls Mistress of the Marshmallow Machines

Oh, sugarplums. Life back in 2018 was simpler, and apparently so were the graphics. Sweet Alchemy looks a little basic now, and the animation has aged like a forgotten Easter egg at the back of the cupboard. Still, I jumped right in with a $2.50 bet and fifty spins on Autoplay because restraint isn’t my brand.

Three spins in, I hit my first win and triggered the Tumble feature. It was like watching a candy tower collapse into a sticky jackpot puddle. That chain gave me $8.50, but then the reels went quiet longer than a lollipop without a lick. Twelve dead spins. Not so sweet.

Finally, a streak of five consecutive wins brought me $5.50, and each victory juiced up the Sugar Rush meter. That’s when the magic (or rather, the marshmallow madness) kicked in. Special features popped in twice, adding a few extra sprinkles to my balance. But still not enough sugar to bake a cake.

Then, darling, the big moment: the Sugar Rush counter hit full power. Suddenly, my little 5x5 grid stretched into a whopping 9x9 layout. Welcome to the Mix the Elixir Free Round! Five Candy Spells later, I was grinning like I’d just stolen the gumdrop crown. Total win? $43.70. Final cash out? $8.90 profit. Not a jackpot, but hey, it bought me another caramel cappuccino.
