Candy Cash, the newest MetaWin-exclusive slot from in-house studio Gladiator Games, is now live. Inside, it's all candy-shop setup. Pink awnings hang over the storefront, candy jars cover the back wall, and the reels are packed with cupcakes, cake slices, and brightly wrapped sweets. Off to the right, a red-capped gumball machine steals part of the attention, and it's there for more than decoration.
And just like every Gladiator Games release before it, you can spin the 7x7 grid of Candy Cash only here, exclusively at MetaWin Casino.

Built in-house by Gladiator Games
Speaking of Gladiator Games, the studio has been busy, and Candy Cash continues a run that already includes new player favourite Thunder Tavern, Rise of Cetus, and the now-legendary Legend of Tartarus.
What separates Gladiator from the third-party studios you'll see across most casino lobbies is the closed-loop system. The team builds every title for MetaWin directly, rather than for the wider operator market, which means features, math, and release timing all run through one place. A Pragmatic or Nolimit slot has to suit a hundred different operators at once. A Gladiator slot only has to suit this one.
Another practical upside is that the rest of the Gladiator Games catalogue is one click away from the Candy Cash tile, and the whole shelf reads as one studio's body of work rather than a stitched-together rotation.
What is Candy Cash?
The first thing you'll see when the Candy Cash slot has loaded is a 7x7 grid and all different kinds of sweets on and around it. Then, when you start spinning, you'll notice how quickly the pacing can pick up when the winning clusters start connecting.

But the part to watch is the gumball machine to the right of the cabinet. Every Scatter you land drops a few balls into it, and once the machine is filled, the Free Spins Bonus takes off.
You can also "force" your way into the bonus round, and for that, you click on the Buy Bonus button. That way, by investing a fixed price, you skip the build and go straight into Free Games. The Boost toggle goes the other way and changes the base-game feel for anyone who'd rather chase the gumball machine the slow way.

Three reasons to spin Candy Cash
Here's why Candy Cash feels different from the rest of the originals:
- First impression matters most, and as soon as you scroll through the Gladiator Games lobby, Candy Cash is the one to catch the eye with its sweetness. The exclusive shelf is dominated by Norse warriors, mythological beasts, and a few Wild West showdowns, so a pink-trimmed candy shop has nowhere to hide.
- Always a headline bonus, Free Games is reachable through the gumball machine to the right of the reels. Every Scatter you collect drops a few balls in, and the round opens up once the machine fills. That's a satisfying and visible chase of the bonus right inside the main game.
- There are three ways into the bonus round. You can chase the gumball machine naturally and let the Scatters do the work, hit the Boost toggle and organically chase it, or you can take the Buy Bonus shortcut and skip the build entirely. Three doors, same room on the other side.
Candy Cash's place in the MetaWin Exclusives lineup
Gladiator Games' shelf has been filling out at a steady pace for some time. For now, Thunder Tavern brought the Norse chaos, Legend of Tartarus carried some of the mythological weight, Disco Dazzle covered the glitter side, All About the Fish dressed a trout in an Elvis costume, and that's just part of it.

Candy-themed slots are one of the most durable categories in online games. Pragmatic Play's Sweet Bonanza has been a top-10 streamed slot on Twitch for three years running, and the broader 'sugar' sub-genre regularly outperforms more traditional themes on retention metrics. Candy Cash is MetaWin's second exclusive entry into the category, after Sweety Treaty.
Candy Cash joins the library as the confectionery entry, and it's another reminder that new slots at MetaWin have become a regular fixture rather than a once-in-a-while drop.
Compared to the wider market, it's pretty clear where a lot of the team's focus is going. Everything you'll find in the MetaWin Exclusives lobby is studio work made for this site directly.
How to play Candy Cash at MetaWin
When you're ready to spin, you'll need to sign in to your account, or hook up your Web3 wallet if that's your preferred route, and you'll find MetaMask, Phantom, Coinbase Wallet, and WalletConnect all good to go. Then drop in your crypto of choice from the usual lineup of BTC, ETH, SOL, USDT, or USDC, head over to the slots lobby, and open the Candy Cash tile.
Set your stake from the bottom panel and the reels are yours from there. The Buy Bonus and Boost controls are right where you'd want them to be, ready whenever you decide to use them. If your account's already set up, the candy shop is one click away.
