Sugar Twist 1000 is Pragmatic Play’s 7×7 candy cluster slot from June 2026, a limited release that Stake lists as one of its own exclusives. It runs the Sugar Rush 1000 formula, with multiplier spots that double all the way to 1,024x, but lifts the RTP to 98% alongside a 25,000x top win. High volatility and spots that stay put through the free spins make it a game for players who enjoy watching a grid build.

Matching sweets in clusters of five
A win needs at least five identical sweets joined horizontally or vertically anywhere on the 7×7 grid. Winning symbols explode and new ones tumble in from above, and the chain carries on for as long as fresh clusters keep forming.
There are seven paying symbols and no wilds. The red sweet is the prize symbol, paying from 1x for a small cluster up to 150x the bet for the largest, the orange, blue and green sweets fill the middle tiers, and the orange, red and purple gummy bears sit at the bottom of the paytable at 0.20x to 30x. The scatter pays nothing by itself; its only job is to open the free spins.
Marking spots for doubling multipliers
Every symbol that explodes in a win marks the cell it sat on. If another win explodes on a marked cell during the same spin, the cell becomes a multiplier spot worth x2, and each further hit doubles it again: x4, x8, x16 and on up to x1,024, the eleventh win on the same cell.
When a cluster lands over several spots, their values are added together and the total multiplies that cluster’s payout. A cluster over an x4 spot and an x8 spot, for example, is paid at x12. In the base game the spots clear once the tumbles stop, so a long chain is what turns a quiet spin into a strong one.
Keeping the spots through the free spins
Scatters anywhere on the grid start the free spins, and more scatters mean a longer round:
| Scatters landed | Free spins |
|---|---|
| 3 | 10 |
| 4 | 12 |
| 5 | 15 |
| 6 | 20 |
| 7 | 30 |
The real difference from the base game is that marked cells and multiplier spots no longer clear between spins. They stay on the grid for the whole round and can only climb, so a late win can land on spots that earlier spins have already built up.
Weighing the two feature buys
Where a casino offers feature buys, Sugar Twist 1000 has two. Free Spins costs 100x the bet and starts the round in the usual way. Super Free Spins costs 500x and starts it with an x2 multiplier already on every one of the 49 cells, skipping the slow early phase where the spots are still being marked. Either buy drops between three and seven scatters, and the RTP stays at 98% whichever way you play.
Reviews list stakes from 0.20 to 240 a spin, while Stake’s own page goes up to 2,000, so the bet panel in the game sets the real range. At a £0.20 base bet, the standard buy costs £20 and the super version £100; at £1 a spin those become £100 and £500, so the super buy is worth sizing against your whole session before you press it.
Reading the 98% RTP
A 98% return means that over millions of spins the game pays back £98 for every £100 staked, on average. That is 1.50 points above the 96.50% of the original Sugar Rush, and higher than the 96.00% Pragmatic lists for Sugar Rush 1000. It is a long-run figure, though, and with high volatility any single session can land far from it in either direction.
The 98% belongs to Stake’s Enhanced RTP version of the game, so the information screen inside the game is the place to see the figure you are actually playing at. It takes a few seconds to confirm before you play.
Finding Sugar Twist 1000 in a lobby
Like the first Sugar Twist, the 1000 edition is listed by Stake as a Stake exclusive, while reviews describe a release to selected casinos; either way, it will not appear everywhere that carries Sugar Rush. The free demo above has the same grid, spots and feature menu, which makes it the simplest way to see how quickly the multipliers build.
Setting it beside the other sugar slots
The family is easy to compare. Sugar Rush, the 2022 original, uses the same 7×7 grid with spots that top out at 128x and a 5,000x cap. Sugar Rush Super Scatter moves the big wins onto a super scatter that can pay up to 50,000x, and Sweet Rush Fiesta is another Pragmatic release at 98%, with a lower 5,000x ceiling.
FAQ
Yes. 98% is Stake’s Enhanced RTP figure for this release, 1.50 points above the original Sugar Rush. The information screen in the game confirms the setting at the casino you are using.
To x1,024. A spot starts at x2 on its second hit and doubles with every hit after that, and spots under the same cluster are added together.
Between 10 and 30. Three scatters give 10 spins and seven give 30, and the same counts add extra spins during the round.
It plays the same way, with the same 7×7 grid, doubling spots and 25,000x cap. The differences are the visuals, the 98% RTP and its limited release.
Budgeting for a slow-building grid
The spots need several wins on the same cells before they pay off, so expect plenty of ordinary spins between the strong ones. Set a limit for the session before you begin, and treat the 500x buy as a large share of that limit rather than a routine purchase.
