Party 2 is a volatile 7×7 grid slot on Pragmatic Play’s Cluster Pays engine that follows closely in the footsteps of the popular original. The base game is all about generating progressive multiplier wilds in empty fall win positions, and these can increase up to x256. However, their capacity increases to x729 in the bonus round, and this can lead to one-time payouts of up to 5,000 times your bet.
Fruit Party 2 Game Review
Pragmatic Play had great success with last year’s original release of Fruit Party, and Fruit Party 2 offers more of the same. Die-hard fans may not be disappointed, but we were hoping for some additional modifiers and higher potential to make this a more appealing prospect. As it stands, however, we’d rather play the original game than this sequel (see the review conclusion for our very compelling reasons for doing so).Visually, there’s not much of a difference, and the base game is still all about fall wins with random progressive multipliers. However, the multiplier symbols are wild this time and can be much higher in the bonus round than what is offered in the first game. However, that doesn’t help much when the maximum win is limited to the same 5,000 times anyway, and the high volatility also makes this version less forgiving.
Bonus features on Fruit Party 2 slot
The Tumble Reel feature is triggered on any win and removes all symbols involved in a win cluster from the grid. This makes room for new symbols to fill the empty positions, and this process repeats as long as you land new win clusters.
A wild can be randomly generated in empty positions after a fruit cluster win explodes, and the wild substitutes for all regular payout symbols to help you create win clusters. The wild appears with a multiplier that starts at x2 , and the multiplier value doubles for each win cluster the wild is involved in ( 4x, 8x, 16x, 32x, 64x, 128x and 256x ).
Thus, you can get up to x256 multiplier wilds during the base game, and more than one wild multiplier in the same win cluster means that their respective values are added. Wilds can also be used in multiple clusters at the same time, with the multiplier increasing all payouts involved.
The bonus round is triggered when you land 3 to 7 golden fruit scatters anywhere within the same fall sequence. This awards 10, 12, 15, 20 or 25 free spins, and you also get a scatter win up to 100x your bet upfront. You win +5 additional spins if you land 3 scatters during the bonus round – with no cap. Wild multipliers start at x3 during the feature and can go up to x729 .
Players outside the UK can use the bonus buy option if it is actually available in their jurisdiction. If you are willing to pay 100 times your bet, you will receive 3 to 7 scatters on the next spin. This will give you between 10 and 25 free spins, which makes it less predictable than many other games with a bonus buy feature.
The 200 Spins Fruit Party 2 Slot Experience
After some initial fall wins, including a remarkably higher payout, we trigger the bonus round at 1:43 in the nearly 4-minute highlights video. However, we only won 10 free spins as only 3 golden fruit scatters landed. Still, we managed to collect a decent amount in the end, and you can see it all for yourself by clicking the play button below.
Rating Conclusion
If you were hoping for a few extra modifiers in this sequel, you’ll be disappointed. To be honest, we were hoping for that ourselves, but Fruit Party 2 is still a decent follow-up to the original hit. In this version you get a much higher maximum wild multiplier in the bonus round, but for some reason Pragmatic has decided to keep the 5,000x potential of the original.
This is a big mistake in our view, as an overall bigger and bolder sequel should also have a more attractive and exciting potential than the first game. Moreover, you are more than 5 times less likely to crack the maximum win in this version than in the original game. The high volatility here also makes it harder to stay afloat, so Fruit Part 2 just doesn’t make much sense mathematically and logically.
