Pragmatic Play's Sugar Rush uses a cluster-pay grid (no paylines, connected groups trigger wins) combined with sticky-multiplier cells that persist across consecutive tumble cascades. The combination produces 96.52% observed RTP across 19,640 paid spins on the DMSTAT bench.
Why sticky multipliers matter
In Sugar Rush's bonus round, the sticky-multiplier cells accumulate across every tumble in the free-spin sequence. A single extended cascade can stack 20-30 multiplier cells, each contributing 2× or higher. The observed hit frequency is 23.1% — lower than Jili's 27-32% range because cluster-pay requires connected groups rather than paylines.
Pairs with Sweet Bonanza
Filipino players who enjoy Sweet Bonanza's tumble + multiplier chain often pair with Sugar Rush for the same reason. The two titles have similar session variance profiles and similar max-win ceilings (5,000× and 21,100× respectively).
