Introduction to Sweet Loot
Sweet Loot is a casino slot from Pragmatic Play featuring jelly pirates. We’ve grown used to candy games from this studio, but perhaps this is the sweetest one yet, with over-the-top visuals and an almost childish approach. Here, we get the familiar formula of Tumble and Multiplier, but instead of Multiplier Spots we’ve seen in Sugar Rush, we get Multiplier Symbols on the Top Reel, making this game stand on its own. With a new multiplier mechanic, it can create good win potential, especially during the Super Free Spins, but the overwhelming visuals can be a distraction.

Final Thoughts on Sweet Loot
Pragmatic Play adds another candy slot to its deep portfolio, which includes previous releases such as Sweet Bonanza. We’re used to fluffy candy clouds, cupcakes, and candies, but this time, we head to Skull Island, starring a jelly pirate. Its colorful design might be appealing to some, but for us, it’s too much, creating chaotic visuals.
In terms of gameplay, it revolves around the scatter pays mechanic and tumble, with a chance of grabbing a potential max win of 10,000X the bet. However, this time the studio introduces a new multiplier mechanic in which overlay Multiplier Symbols can land on the Top Reels with values up to 500X. Because the multipliers are attached to a certain symbol type, they don’t function as general multipliers like those we’ve seen in Gates of Olympus. But, while testing the game, we made some good wins when several Multipliers were part of the same win. So what about the Bonus Game? Here, the game’s peaks and guarantees a Multiplier on each Free Spin, and a minimum Multiplier of 10X during the Super Free Spins.
Overall, the design is too whimsical for us, even though its playful style might appeal to fans of the candy theme. When it comes to the gameplay, we enjoyed the new multiplier mechanic, and even though it isn’t one of the studio’s strongest releases, it’s a breath of fresh air in a crowded category.
Sweet Loot invites you to Skull Island, starring a jelly pirate, presenting a new multiplier mechanic that should attract fans of the feature.
