Power Pops feels like stepping into a candy carnival that’s a bit too loud in the best way. It’s made by Backseat Gaming, and everything here is built around one idea: wins should snowball fast when the multipliers show up. The grid is packed with sweets and bright shapes, and instead of chasing neat paylines you are just trying to land big groups of the same symbol anywhere on the screen. The base game can look innocent for a few spins, then a Lollipop drops in, lights up a reel multiplier, and suddenly you are watching cascades chain together like popping candy. It’s simple to understand, but it can turn chaotic quickly once the sugar starts exploding.
Power Pops runs on 6 reels and 5 rows and uses an all-scatter, pay-anywhere setup. To win, you need 8 or more identical symbols anywhere on the grid. The main RTP is listed as 96.31%, and there is also at least one lower RTP option shown as 94.28%. Volatility is marked as mid-high, so it can pay often enough to stay fun, but bigger hits usually need multipliers to stack. Bet range is 0.10 to 30, and the max win is 30,000x.
The big headline features are Lollipop reel multipliers, two bonus modes called Sugar Pop and Lollipop Blast, plus several Feature Buy options.
Power Pops is the kind of slot that looks cute, then suddenly turns into pure multiplier chaos. When the reel multipliers start stacking, even a normal tumble chain can jump in value fast, and the Lollipop Blast bonus is especially fun because it starts you off with multipliers already in place.
The downside is that the game can feel a bit flat when Lollipops do not show up, since there is no Wild safety net and you really rely on that multiplier engine to make the session pop. Based on the mixed but generally positive reception on major databases, it lands as a solid new candy slot with real spike potential when you catch the right moments.
