Winterberries 2 Review

The original Winterberries from Yggdrasil looks archaic by today's standards, but 9 years is a long time in the ever-evolving world of online slots. Winterberries 2 is a visually pleasing follow-up, and it comes with a similar, if not identical, cheerful melody in the background. You get a nice selection of berries on the grid, and a highly tempting Golden Bet option unlocks an extra 6th reel, while also doubling your bonus round chances.

The extra reel does more than just give you more winning chances, as well as higher 6 of a kind wins. It also adds a higher top-tier multiplier that can be achieved via the Frozen Respins feature. Everything revolves around this sticky winning symbols respins mechanic, and full reels award the relevant total win multiplier. The multiplier range doubles in the bonus round, where they can also be upgraded, and the 10,000x max win is also a significant upgrade compared to the original game.

You can turn on the Golden Bet between base game spins, and it costs 50 % more per spin to keep in on. This unlocks a 6th reel, and it also doubles your bonus round chances.

In addition, it allows for 6 of a kind wins, and it also means that the largest possible multiplier can be activated. More about all that below. The premium berry symbols pay between 6 and 10 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins, and between 18 and 30 x your stake for 6 of a kind wins.

All winning symbols become, quite literally, frozen in place, and the remaining positions respin. New symbols of the same type that are already frozen as a win will also become frozen in place, and this awards another respin. The process repeats as long as you keep adding to the frozen win, and the win is paid when the respins end.

Scatters are frozen if you land 3+ while also landing a win, but they do not trigger respins on their own.

You’ll see a multiplier above each reel, and these become activated from the leftmost reel towards the right as you fill whole reels with frozen symbols. The base game multipliers are x1, x2, x4, x8, x16, and x32, and you need to fill reels consecutively from the uttermost left to the right to activate each multiplier tier.

Landing at least 3 scatters in view triggers the Bonus Round, and you win 10, 12, 15, or 20 free spins from 3, 4, 5, or 6 scatters, respectively (the latter is only available with the Golden Bet active). The multiplier range above the reels is doubled in the bonus round, so you get x2, x4, x8, x16, x32, and x64 above reels 1 to 6.

There are 3 kinds of scatters you can land during the bonus round, and these are the silver, gold, and diamond scatters. No matter the scatter type that appears, you get +1 free spin per scatter, and the silver scatter increases each multiplier by +1 to +3. You get +4 to +8 for gold scatters, and +10 to +15 for diamond scatters.

The Bonus Buy menu is available in some jurisdictions, but not in the UK for sure. You get 4 different options if eligible, and these are as follows:

  • Buy 10 to 15 free spins with 5 reels for 100x the stake.
  • Buy 10 to 20 free spins with 6 reels for 150x the stake.
  • Buy 15 free spins with 5 reels for 200x the stake.
  • Buy 20 free spins with 6 reels for 300x the stake.

The 200 Spins Winterberries 2 Slot Experience

You get a decent taste of the base game, before we purchase the top-tier bonus round. It triggers around 1:25 into the 9:41-minute highlights video, and it went on for quite a while as you probably understand. This is due to all the respin triggers and extra spins we got, and you can check it all out for yourself by hitting the play button below.

Review Summary

It’s hardly surprising that the visuals are far more pleasing in this follow-up than in the original, as it was released all the way back in 2014 (feels like ages ago, no?).

Winterberries 2 Slot Review 2588

Winterberries 2 comes with a zen-like, clean, and pleasing visual presentation, and it throws itself on the sticky winning symbols respin trend that’s had an upswing recently. It’s a well-balanced game in most respects, and it comes with a decent pace and flow with the turbo switched on.

The sticky winning symbols respins system gives you plenty of non-paid extra spins that each improve the original win, so it’s not a bad system at all. Yggdrasil has decided to spice things up with the reel multiplier system as well, and the Golden Bet seems like a very good idea in this game. The 6th extra reel is helpful by itself, but you also get a larger top-tier multiplier, and your bonus round chances are doubled. The feature comes with enhanced multipliers, and the 10,000x potential is 4 times what you get in the original game.

Pros

  • Golden Bet w/ extra reel, multiplier, and 2x FS chance
  • Sticky winning symbol respins w/ full reel multipliers
  • FS w/ doubled reel multiplier range that can be increased
  • Win up to 10,000x your stake

Cons

  • Beware of adjustable RTP ranges
