Overview
By Sophie Lang, Games & Mobile Editor. Catalog RTP last refreshed 24 August 2026 — not a live lobby scrape. Confirm the cash info panel after login.
Pumpkin Smash is Yggdrasil’s Halloween: 5,000× class, prefer ~96.20% after CAD login. It is not Winterberries’ berry at 2,000× / ~96.20% and not Nirvana’s zen at 5,000× / ~96.20%.
Lobby search stacks Winterberries, Nirvana, and Holmes and the Stolen Stones beside it. Open the cash title that reads Pumpkin Smash, then read the panel — 94.20% and 91.00% Yggdrasil builds still ship.
Confirm the live contribution table. Some tables still cap max bet. Confirm before you opt in.
Editor take — Pumpkin Smash. Use Halloween on a 96.20% CAD panel at 5,000×. Take Winterberries for berry at 2,000× / ~96.20%. Take Nirvana for zen at 5,000× / ~96.20%. Skip Holmes and the Stolen Stones unless that is the cash tile.
Stake and table limits for Pumpkin Smash are operator-specific in CAD. Set a session cap before you open the game, then confirm 96.2% on the cash panel — not the demo tile.
