Push Gaming releases a sugary sequel in Retro Sweets
B2B gaming supplier Push Gaming returns to the nostalgic aesthetic of one of 2023’s biggest hits with its latest sequel, Retro Sweets.
Building from the success of Retro Tapes, the slot is again played across a 6×9 matrix but this time swaps audio cassettes with various tasty treats and instant win coins to represent its symbols in this cluster pay outing.
Wild candies make it easier to create winning clusters and also bring the game’s intuitive use of multipliers into play. For each successive win that a wild is a part of, its multiplier increases by 1x while multiplier symbols further increase win potential and provide a progression loop.
Elevating the gameplay further, Retro Sweets introduces the Instant Prize Multiplier which gives regular Instant Prize symbols the potential to form crazy winning clusters.
The now synonymous Cluster Links mechanic also benefits from the sweet collector feature, an augmented version of Retro Tapes’ Magnet mechanic, which gathers all non-clustered coins, symbols and wilds into the same part of the gameboard.
Providing increased player personalisation and amplified replayability, the Push Bet feature allows players to have one or two guaranteed wild candy symbols land on each spin with three needed to enter the bonus round.
Not only does this make entry to the bonus easier, but raises the potential of landing a greater number of wilds – more wilds mean more spins, opportunities to form connecting coins clusters and more maximum wins – continuing the Retro franchise’s synonymity with big prizes.
Retro Sweets blends nostalgic iconography and sound design with innovative mechanics that made the original title a multi-award winner. It follows other notable hits from the studio, including DJ Cat, Samuari’s Katana and Wild Swarm 2.
Senior Game Producer, Ihor Lozinskiy at Push Gaming, said: “Retro Sweets is a mouth-watering, mechanically rich title that amplifies the use of multipliers and offers more ways to win big. The evolved features are set to engage players and allow them to enjoy the slot in a variety of ways, tailored to their play style.
“We’re excited to be expanding upon the success of Retro Tapes and returning to the Cluster Link mechanic for one of our sweetest releases of the year.”
