Pragmatic Play is back with Sweet Powernudge, a candy-themed slot offering tasty cash payouts of up to 5,000 your bet.
The helpful Powernudge feature can lead to win after win, and the Multiplier Reel might just boost the value of your prizes by up to x10, too. If you collect enough Scatter symbols, you’ll get to play Sweet Powernudge’s Free Spins feature, and you can retrigger it for even more chances to win!

Sweet Powernudge is played on a 6x5 grid with a cluster pays mechanic. Pragmatic Play has developed the game for mobile and desktop play to provide a seamless experience across devices. Follow these steps to get started:
If you’ve played other Pragmatic Play slots, you should find Sweet Powernudge’s controls a breeze to use (I know I did!). I recommend you check the paytable first to see how much each symbol offers and how the features work.
Take a moment to set up your stake with the ‘+’ and ‘-’ buttons, then press the Spin button to start playing.
Sweet Powernudge has nine symbols: four royals designed to look like tasty candies, four colourful desserts, and a lollipop Scatter. The royals award the smallest prizes: you’ll win up to 10x, 15x, 20x, or 30x your bet with the J, Q, K, and A symbols, respectively.
The purple dessert is worth up to 40x your stake, and the yellow dessert pays up to 50x. If you build a winning cluster with the green dessert, you’ll win up to 75x your bet. And, finally, the red dessert offers a top win of 100x your bet.
You need to connect five or more matching symbols horizontally or vertically to create winning clusters. The more symbols in a cluster, the bigger your prize will be!
There are three bonus features in Sweet Powernudge, and they can all increase your winning potential nicely. I’ll take a close look at each one below.
The lollipop Scatter can appear anywhere on the grid and trigger the Free Spins feature.
The Powernudge feature triggers every winning spin in the base game. Reels containing one or more winning symbols nudge down one position automatically. This reveals another symbol at the top of the grid and any new winning clusters that form award extra prizes on the same spin.
When no matching symbols connect, and no wins are created, the Powernudge feature ends.
The Multiplier Reel on the right-hand side of the screen only contains multiplier values, no symbols. The values are x1, x2, x3, x4, x5, and x10.
The Multiplier Reel can become active randomly in the base game: it spins for the current spin and all nudges that result from it. The multiplier in the middle is added to a total multiplier after each spin, and this applies to the overall win for the current spin and nudges. The Multiplier Reel resets once the spin ends.
Any Scatters that land in the base game are collected. If you collect at least four in one nudge sequence, you’ll win seven free spins. The Multiplier Reel is active for the entire feature.
When you have collected more than four Scatters when the feature triggers, they carry over into the Free Spins round and contribute to potential retriggers. Each time you collect four Scatters, you win three extra free spins.
You can use the Ante Bet to increase your bet by 25% and double the chance of triggering the Free Spins feature.
Pay 100x your bet to trigger the Free Spins feature instantly from the base game.
Sweet Powernudge awards prizes of up to 5,000x your bet. That’s a potential win of $625,000 when playing at the maximum $125 stake.
Sweet Powernudge has an RTP of 96.08%, which is a little over the industry average. It’s highly volatile, and, in my experience, most wins tend to be very small. However, the Powernudge feature can bring you more prizes on each winning spin.
When I played Sweet Powernudge, I liked the visuals and sound a lot. It has a similar style to other Pragmatic Play slots like Sweet Bonanza 1000 and Sugar Supreme Powernudge. It’s set in a super-sweet Candyland made up of cakes and lollipops, and the fun music bounces along nicely while you play.

If Sweet Powernudge takes your fancy, you’ll be pleased to know there’s a wide variety of other candy-themed slots out there to try.
I mentioned Sweet Bonanza 1000 above, which is an outstanding Pragmatic Play game. It offers a higher prize of 25,000x your stake and great features.
Candy Elves pays out up to 7,876x your bet and includes multiple features, such as the Candy Elves Bonus. Another candy-themed slot to try is Sugar Rush, with a top prize of 5,000x your stake, a Tumble feature, and free spins.
I can’t say Sweet Powernudge is the most original slot ever made — if you’ve played Sweet Bonanza 1000, for example, this might look familiar. But I still had fun with it, largely thanks to the charming design and bonuses.
The Powernudge feature is the star of the show, and the Multiplier Reel is another welcome addition — especially in the Free Spins feature when it’s always active.
Whether you’re a fan of candy-themed slots or just looking for a game with a cute, cozy feel, Sweet Powernudge is definitely worth a try.
