Introduction to Candy Wheel
Candy Wheel is a live game from Amusnet with a familiar candyland theme. This is the latest addition to the provider’s Live Game roster, where you watch a live host present the well-known Big Wheel mechanic, this time with a 50-segmented wheel. You simply need to predict where the wheel will stop, similar to famous TV game shows such as Spin the Wheel. So what can the wheel offer you? It consists of 50 sectors containing Cash Prizes ranging from 1X to 1000X the bet, Dynamic Multipliers up to 25X, and Jackpots. We appreciate the bright, easygoing vibe, which works well for an audience looking for a simple, familiar Big Wheel mechanic. However, due to the unoriginal gameplay and lack of innovation, it results in an average score. Let’s find out what Candy Wheel offers.

Candy Wheel Gameplay
The objective of Candy Wheel is to predict where the wheel will stop in the next round by placing their bets on six bet sectors, called tickets.
The game starts as follows: You must choose your chip (bet size) and place it at the segment where you believe the wheel will stop. You can choose to bet on one or several tickets at once. When the betting time is over and the host spins the wheel, a feature can randomly appear on the circle inside the wheel. The features can be one of the following:
Candy Ticket = Provides you with a free rebet to a chosen sector. If you have bet on this sector, you will receive a free bet for the next round with the same value on the same sector.
Dynamic Multiplier = A multiplier with values of 2X, 5X, 10X, or 25X is applied to a chosen sector. If you have bet on the sector, the multiplier is applied if it wins.
Jackpot = The Jackpot can randomly trigger after a single game is finished. When triggered, it's played on top of the regular game, with a chance to ignore it if you don’t want to participate. It's played as a 4-level game, each level displayed by a card suit.
Final Thoughts on Candy Wheel
If you are tired of serious Live Game Shows and want a more playful vibe, keep reading. Here, you are offered a colorful design with a whimsical vibe and decent win potential. As always during Live Game, we have to praise the professional hosts, who constantly keep the energy up while keeping track of all results and action.
Here, you get a straightforward Big Wheel mechanic, where you must predict where the wheel will stop, providing Cash Prize payouts up to 1,000X the bet. The provider allows us to boost the payouts thanks to Dynamic Multipliers up to 25X and Candy Ticket, giving you a free bet for the following round. Even though the randomly triggered Jackpot can create a nerve, this game is as shallow as a bowl of ice cream. Built on the same mechanics as Dream Catcher by Evolution, released in 2017, Candy Wheel lacks Bonus Games and offers a looping gameplay. While testing the game, it felt repetitive and failed to generate any long-term interest.
In conclusion, even though we liked the game’s positive, whimsical Candyland theme, it lacks innovation and follows a well-established format we’ve seen many times before. There is nothing wrong with the stats, and the Dynamic Multipliers can create decent wins; however, its unoriginality makes it an average release.
Candy Wheel is a live game with a sugar-coated, familiar theme, lacking the originality of a high-rated game, but it still offers decent win potential.
