Sweet Wins Await in Cupcakes Slot
I am a fan of a traditional cupcake. A bit of icing and nothing else. No frills and no trouble consuming what may be one of humankind’s greatest inventions. Today, however, cupcakes have more icing and toppings than cake, and you have to be able to dislocate your jaw to get it into your mouth. It was the perfect invention and we ruined it.
Go back to the good old days of the sweet treat and enjoy some scrumptious wins with Cupcakes slot from NetEnt.
Are you ready for some sweet wins
Just like Crash Crush, Cupcakes slot removes symbols involved in winning combinations allowing new symbols to fall into the vacant spots. This allows you to unlock a string of winning combinations from a single spin.
The most noticeable feature of Cupcakes slot is the cupcake multiplier symbols. These 2×2 symbols appear on the reels with ten vacant spaces in the icing. If during that spin you managed to complete winning combinations that include 10 symbols that are the same color as the cupcake, you will unlock the cupcake symbol’s multiplier which will be applied to all subsequent wins of that spin. Once your spin has been concluded, the multiplier will disappear, in the base game at least. The cupcake symbol multiplier can range from 2x to 100x.
The appearance of three or more icing tubs on the reels will trigger a round of the slot’s free spins. Depending on how many icing tubs you use to unlock the feature, you’ll receive up to 16 free spins. During a round of free spins, cupcake multipliers will not be reset and will continue to accumulate with the increasingly large multiplier being applied to every winning combination.
If you’re not keen on waiting around for your sweet treats to come out of the oven, you can select to buy a round of the slot’s free spins.
Is Cupcakes slot worth a trip to the bakery?
If you’re looking at the graphics and nothing else, Cupcakes slot is so generic in appearance that you could be forgiven for mistaking it for any of a dozen other sweet-themed slots. The slot does, however, have a trick up its sleeve in the form of its cupcake symbols that allow you to unlock multipliers. The feature does not only add a significant amount to the slot’s gameplay, but it also gives it a unique graphical element that I don’t think I’ve ever seen before. It really is a brilliant piece of gameplay design from the NetEnt team.
The slot offers high volatility ensuring that you’ll need to wait longer than you’d like between wins. This isn’t much helped by the fairly average 2,762x max multiplier that will require you to bet at €50 a spin to play for the €138,100 max win. The slot also has a 96.05% RTP.
If you’re looking for a few other sweet slots from NetEnt, I recommend giving Conan and Knight Rider a try.
