Raptor 2

The original gained a strong following thanks to its escalating DoubleMax multiplier, which doubled after every avalanche win. With Raptor 2, Yggdrasil returns to the neon-prehistoric jungle, upgrading the feature set while retaining the intensity that made the first title so popular. Although the new version does not surpass the original in every area, it offers a refreshing evolution with expanded reels, enhanced mechanics, and new bonus pathways.

The game transports players back to a lush, glowing world of dangerous dinosaurs and dense jungle vegetation. The visual standard is high, with vibrant animations and atmospheric sound design that intensifies as the multiplier climbs. The base game begins on a 5x3 grid offering 243 ways to win. During free spins, the grid can expand up to 5x7 with 16,807 ways. While the fully enlarged grid results in smaller symbol sizes, it still maintains clarity and the polished look expected from Yggdrasil Gaming.

Raptor 2 offers a wide RTP range, with the highest configuration reaching an impressive 97%. This is a rarity in modern slots and a major draw. However, lower RTP versions also exist, so players should check which version their casino provides. The volatility is high, reflecting the explosive potential of the DoubleMax system. Betting options range from 0.10 to 10 per spin, making it suitable for a broad audience.

The reels feature low-paying symbols represented by the four card suits, while high-paying symbols showcase various dinosaurs. A full five-of-a-kind win ranges from 0.3 to 3 times the stake depending on the symbol. A wild symbol also appears after every avalanche win, substituting for all paying symbols and helping extend winning sequences. This wild addition is key to maintaining momentum during both the base game and bonus rounds.

The DoubleMax multiplier remains the heart of the gameplay. After every winning spin, all symbols involved disappear, a wild replaces one of the vacated positions, and new symbols drop into place. Each avalanche further doubles the multiplier. In the base game, the multiplier resets after any losing avalanche or non-winning spin. During free spins, however, the multiplier does not reset until the entire round ends. This allows players to build extraordinary values if the bonus continues long enough. The multiplier can reach a maximum of x2048.

Three scatters award five free spins on the standard 5x3 grid. Four scatters award fifteen spins on a 5x5 layout, and five scatters also award fifteen spins but start on the fully expanded 5x7 board. During the bonus, landing three additional scatters triggers the Reel Expansion feature, adding two extra rows up to a maximum of 5x7. If five scatters appear at the same time during free spins, players receive an additional free spin along with the expansion. After any scatter prize is paid, the scatters are removed to trigger an avalanche, though this avalanche does not double the multiplier or generate a wild.

Raptor 2 offers three bonus buy options for players who prefer direct access to the free spins round. Purchasing the bonus with three scatters costs 80 times the bet. Buying a four-scatter bonus costs 240 times the bet, and the premium five-scatter bonus with a fully expanded grid costs 880 times the bet. These options provide flexibility for different bankrolls and playstyles.
