Pink Elephants 2

Prepare for another high-volatility reel ride with wild substitutions, a random mystery scatter and a free spins round with symbol transformations that can lead to wins of up to 10,000 times your bet.

Thunderkick didn’t revolutionise the visuals and opted instead for an evolutionary design based on the original Pink Elephants slot. As a result, the scenery on the sequel is changing from the dry desert to a serene landscape in the Tibetian highlands. Rock formations with statues of the might elephants are in the background to the translucent game window that is dominated by some mysterious goats.

The pay symbols start at the low end with the card royals from 9 through to A, held on carved rocks and awarding 2.2x to 4x your stake for a single six of a kind. They are followed by four goats with a blue, green, orange and purple background as well as the pink elephant. The latter can appear stacked at all times. Hit six across the reels to win 5x to 10x your bet. A mystical ‘W’ is the wild symbol, appearing on reels two to six only and substituting for all regular pay symbols. The magical golden peanut still acts the scatter.

Pink Elephants 2 Slot Features

Just like with the visuals, Thunderkick chose the safe route when it comes to features. They kept most of them intact and only implemented a slight change to the symbol upgrade in the free spins. However, that is not all as they also cranked up the maximum win potential from 8,200x to 10,000x your bet.

The random Mystery Scatter symbol makes a return on the sequel. The feature can trigger at the start of any spin in the base game and will add up to five golden peanut scatters to random positions on the reels and thus making it easier to trigger the bonus game.

Either organically or via the random feature, you will need to have three or more scatters in view at the end of a spin to trigger the Free Spins feature. Three, four, five or six scatters will get you 7, 11, 15 and 19 free spins respectively. Two to six scatters landing on a free spin, will retrigger 3 to 11 free spins, no limits.

Before the round starts, the scenery is darkening and the four goat symbols appear to the left, each with its own meter. Elephant symbols can appear marked with an orb, each adding one count to the current meter. Once completed, the respective symbol will turn into the next higher goat symbol and award +1 free spin. Filling the last meter will see all goat symbols turn into the top-paying pink elephants for the remainder of the feature. The maximum you can pocket in a free spins round has been noted with 10,000 times your bet.

Final Verdict

To be frank, I expected a little more effort on the sequel to Pink Elephant. While Thunderkick did substantial work on their other sequel, Esqueleto Explosivo 2, they took the lazy road on Pink Elephants 2, virtually leaving anything but the mid-paying symbols and the transformation mechanic the same as on the original. Still, a highly volatile game that should please hardcore gamers as it comes with a higher max win potential.
