Finn and the Candy Spin

The features are a fun thing in this game. First of all, the game has a unique mechanic that that does not have paylines. Instead, icons roll on the 5×5 grid in circular motion as a swirl towards the centre of the grid. Matching icons in horizontal and vertical lines as 3, 4, or 5-of a kind delivers wins. Wilds are added in the centre after wins.

Now, the features in the game can be split into two parts – the random modifiers and Free Spins.

Random modifiers are:

• Sugar Rush – 2-5 Wilds are added on random positions on the grid, and more will come until you hit a win (max 10 Wilds per round)
• Yeti Destroy – up to 19 icons are removed from the grid to create a cascading win. This happens only during win-less spins
• Candy Luck – Icons in a reel/row are upgraded but only if there are no Free Spins Key. This automatically creates a win
• Pop Transform – Low-value icons transform into high-value tiles

These modifiers can happen on any random spin in the base game. They also appear in Free Spins.

To get into Free Spins, you need the Free Spins Key that is placed on the starting position on the grid on each new spin. If it reaches the centre, you get the Spins. There’s also a Key meter that counts up to 999 Keys that cannot be reset. At the start of the Free Spins round, you pick one of 4 Spins options – Wild Sugar Lab, Ice-Cream Palace, Cotton Candy Lab, Gumball Factory. You can pick them, but if the meter has specific values, a pre-determined feature unlocks. For instance, values 1, 4, 9, or 16 on the meter trigger Wild Sugar Lab, Ice-Cream Palace, Cotton Candy Lab, and Gumball Factory, respectively.

• Wild Sugar Lab – 7 Spins with Sugar Rush on each spin
• Ice-Cream Palace – 3 Spins with Yeti Destroy and Sticky Wilds
• Cotton Candy Lab – 4 Spins with Candy Luck
• Gumball Factory – 2 Spins with Pop Transform

Is Finn and the Candy Spin a worthy sequel to the popular franchise? Remains to be seen. From what we’ve seen, the game is a fun-filled adventure brimming with potential, but the potential does not translate into profit or winnings. Instead, you’ll surely have fun with the random modifiers and four types of Free Spins, but don’t expect to win something substantial.

The game has a 5×5 grid with a Swirly Spin mechanics we’ve last seen in Adventures Beyond Wonderland Magical Maze by Quickspin. It’s a novel concept, but is it enough to attract players and make them stay? You decide. The game is available at all NetEnt online casinos with bets starting at $0.10 per round.
