Reactoonz 2 review
Theme and Storyline
The Reactoonz franchise is built around a mix of
cartoon monsters many of which have quirky 😄 effects on the base gameplay. Reactoonz 2 is
thematically very similar to the first one, most of the changes are 😄 under the hood in
the more complex gameplay.
But for anyone new to the franchise, the little blob-like
aliens should be 😄 enough to charm you into enjoying the strange and wonderful world they
inhabit.
Big wins usually follow filling the Quantumeter to 😄 level 3 or 4
Graphics,
Sounds and Animations
The graphics are one of the key selling points for this Play'n
GO's slot. 😄 Though they are by no means the only one. All the symbols are tiny aliens,
each of which are given 😄 as much unique personality as can be crammed into such simple
limbless creatures.
The various parts of the screen are all 😄 fully animated. The
background is a swirling vortex of space colours, the indices around the main reels are
surrounded by 😄 crackling electricity, glowing lights, or moving meters. The effect is
one of constant action, especially once the reels kick off 😄 with their complex dance of
features and symbols.
The music is a little repetitive in a way that grinds, but the
😄 other sound effects are so numerous and charming that unless players leave the game
idle on their screens, they shouldn’t 😄 have any trouble with it.
Gameplay
Reactoonz 2
expands on the gameplay of the previous iteration of the series. The reels make 😄 up a
seven by seven grid. Any group of five or more symbols connected horizontally or
vertically is a winning 😄 group. The bigger the group, the bigger the win.
A cascade
feature means that any winning combination is removed from the 😄 reels while more symbols
drop down from above to replace them.
After each cascade, new winning combinations can
be made and 😄 removed. If this happens, it triggers another cascade.

Wilds, Bonuses and Free Spins
There are three kinds of Wild symbols. The 😄 Charged
Wild, Energoon Wild, and Electric Wild all substitute for all other symbols. The main
difference is in how they 😄 come to be on the reels.
An additional symbol, the Uncharged
Wild can become an Electric Wild if next to a 😄 winning combination or if a Wild pair
explosion goes off. Uncharged Wilds appear at random during regular spins. All other
😄 Wilds are awarded as part of the bonus systems.
Neighbouring Electic Wild symbols
explode after the last cascade, leaving ony Wild 😄 symbols behind.
The first bonus system
is the Fluctometer which is assigned a random one-eyed monster every spin. If the
player 😄 gets eleven of that monster in winning combinations that spin, the Fluctometer
reaches full charge and adds one, two, or 😄 three Electric Wilds to the reels.
Each
winning symbol that is part of a group with an Electric Wild adds one 😄 "charge" to the
other meter: the Quantumeter. The Quantumeter has three levels. Over 55 charges
activates level one, releasing four 😄 Energoon Wilds onto the reels. If the player gets
over 85 charges, then the player gets a 2x2 Energoon Wild.
Level 😄 3 on Quantumeter
awards the 3x3 Gargantoon Wild symbol
If the player gets the Quantumeter to level 3,
they get a 😄 Gargantoon Wild added to the grid. Level 3 triggers a single 3x3 Gargantoon
Wild. There is also an extra level 😄 4, which adds a x2 multiplier to all Gargantoon
Wins.
After each cascade is finished, the Gargantoon Wild breaks up into 😄 first two 2x2
Wilds, then nine 1x1 Wilds. This makes for huge wins and is more or less the equivalent
😄 of a Bonus Feature in other games.
Bet Sizes, RTP and Variance
The range of bets on the
site we tested ran 😄 from a minimum bet per spin ofR$/£/€0.20 up to a maximum
ofR$/£/€100.00 per spin. This is a good range, though 😄 real penny-pinching players may
need to go elsewhere for their kicks.
The return to player of this game is 96.20%, a
😄 little over our yardstick for average of roughly 96%.
The volatility of this game is
high, which makes it a great 😄 match for our preferred slot machine strategies,
especially when combined with the above average RTP. Our slot strategies target the
😄 highest possible combination of volatility and RTP.

Conclusion
With its charming visuals and varied Gameplay, Reactoonz 2 😄 grabs the
attention right away. Great sounds design and a highly energetic animation style keep
that attention going. Some players 😄 might initially be put off by the complexity of the
various features. But in practice this proves simpler that it 😄 looks with it all boiling
down to just one pair of metrics that the game tracks for the player.
But what 😄 really
makes us want to stay and play the game is the high volatility, coupled with a solid
RTP.
We highly 😄 recommend this slot.
