Push Gaming · 2024
Retro Sweets is a high volatility video slot from Push Gaming on a 6x9 Cluster Link grid. This page sets out its figures before the first spin.
The demo is free. The real game needs an account and a legal age of 18+.
Choose Retro Sweets if you want a candy-themed video slot with a neon look. The game runs on a 6x9 grid where wins come from clusters, not paylines. Five or more adjacent symbols of the same candy win together. Those winning symbols then collapse, and new symbols cascade into the gaps, so one spin can produce several wins. Five matching symbols is the fewest that pay.
Decide whether a Push Bet suits your budget. The toggle raises the total bet by 100 percent of the base bet to guarantee one Wild Candy Symbol, or by 300 percent for two. Wins still count on the base bet. Three or more Wild Candy Symbols landing anywhere start Free Spins. Retrigger, Sticky Wild and Magnetic Symbol are also in play.

Know each step
Read this before your first spin, when you want to see how a round runs.
Pick a bet from A$0.10 up to A$100 before the first spin. Push Bet 1 Scatter sets the total at 2x the base bet, Push Bet 2 Scatters at 4x.
The grid has 6 columns and 9 rows. Five or more adjacent symbols of one candy form a win. Winning symbols cascade and collapse, then the grid is checked again.
The base game caps any win at 10,000x the base bet. Its features include Sticky Wild, Magnetic Symbol, Multiplier and Wild Multiplier, alongside cascades that run on the 6x9 grid.
Land 3 or more Wild Candy Symbols anywhere on the grid to start free spins. Three symbols give 6 spins, four give 8, five give 10 and six give 12.
Decide your session limit before the first spin, because no one can know in advance how a session will go. Stop when you reach it.

Before you set a budget for Retro Sweets, know that how often the bonus round comes is not known in advance. The result of one session is random whatever the RTP shown, so a high RTP does not mean a short wait or a win.
Choosing a version of Retro Sweets means looking up its RTP first. That detail is shown only in the game rules, so read them before your first spin, and treat the rules as the final word on the version in play.
Before you raise your stake on Retro Sweets, keep the ceiling in view. The maximum win is a ceiling reached very rarely, and it is a multiple of your bet, so it grows only when the stake does.
Two ways to play
Read this before you open the game for the first time or decide to deposit money.
The demo needs no money and pays nothing. The real game needs a Star Casino account and you must be 18 or older.

Star Casino explains each slot's rules in plain terms before you compare them.
Know before you spin
Star Casino answers the questions a player has before the first spin, with the numbers behind them.
Before you pick a version, know that the RTP is a long-run figure, not a promise for one session. Retro Sweets comes in five RTP versions, from 96.05% to 96.49%. The Base Game runs at 96.49%, and the Push Bet and free spins modes each carry their own figure.
Players who want a bonus round without waiting for it can buy one of two features. The Normal Free Spins Feature costs 120x the base bet, and the Super Free Spins Feature costs 400x. At the A$5 top bet, the two purchases cost A$600 and A$2,000.
Anyone weighing the risk should note the volatility first. Retro Sweets is a high volatility slot, so results swing sharply and quiet stretches can run long. The top win is capped at 10,000x the bet, and nobody can tell in advance when a large win lands.
Anyone who wants to practise first can open Retro Sweets in demo mode at Star Casino. Demo play uses fun credit, so the feature prices also appear in fun at a 0.50 base bet. Use it to see how the rounds run before you choose a bet size.
Anyone choosing a stake should know the limits first. Retro Sweets accepts stakes from A$0.10 up to A$100 per spin. The examples on this page use A$1 and A$5 for clarity.
Players who see three Wild Candy Symbols land anywhere on the grid enter the free spins. Three symbols give 6 free spins, four give 8, five give 10 and six give 12.
This game is open to players aged 18+. Help is available from the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858, and BetStop is the national self-exclusion register.
Set a budget before you start a session, and treat that amount as money you can afford to lose.
Decide before you start when you will stop, and keep that rule after a win too. A large win does not change the stop point you set.
Set deposit and loss limits in your account before a session, so the cap applies from the first spin.
If Retro Sweets stops being fun, take a break from it, or self-exclude through BetStop.
