Legacy of the Wild 2 Review

Since it's already been 4 years since the release of the original Legacy of the Wild slot, the developers decided to give it a rebirth, though, it's not just a basic continuation but a complete overhaul. Playtech Vikings gives their brainchild a second life for sure for it has taken a completely different approach to the design while leaving the gameplay simple and almost untouched, so fans of the first part will undoubtedly love it.

Legacy of the Wild 2 - Design and Symbols

Loading the game will take you to the Medieval ages, into a unique fantasy realm, where humanity stands against hostile races. The reels are set in a backdrop of a mountainous vale with a colossal castle in the rear. A pretty sight indeed. The slot is superbly designed, and we really have to pay credits to the developers for paying such high attention to the details. The top-notch quality setting is complemented by an immersive soundtrack that plays whilst you spin the reels, capturing the essential fantasy vibe and adding a final touch to the general ambiance.

As we head over to the paytable we see a pack of strikingly-designed symbols. The symbol collection is a set of 10 regular symbols, split into highs and lows.

The pay symbols start at the low end with different shields of various shapes and colors that supposedly refer to each of the kingdoms. As for the more valuable ones, they involve 5 characters, including in ascending order a young magician, a female knight, an orc warrior, a demon knight, and a Gandalf-like wizard. The payouts are given for matching at least 3 adjacent symbols starting from the first reel on a line, while full combos involve 5 instances of the same symbol. Not to say that the rewards are poor, though, you won't benefit too much from landing regular combos since the top-paying symbol values 20x of the bet for a 5-of-a-kind combination.

As well as the overall visual appearance, the math model has also undergone dramatic changes. Instead of a 5x4 reel set, we get a large 5x6 grid with 60 ways to play.

The volatility level was also increased to high, so don't expect to be showered in wins. Yet, Playtech is helping with the moderate RTP of 96.36%, which is above the average.

To spin the reels at least 0.15$ are required, while the highest betting option reaches 300$ per spin, providing a quite wide range to choose from. However, the maximum potential is meager and surely leaves much to be desired since all you can hope for on a single spin is 1,000x of the bet, which is though 300,000$ when playing with the max bet option available, but playing that big is hardly worth the risk.

Legacy of the Wild 2 - Bonus Features

When it comes to the features, nothing has significantly changed in comparison to the original part. Those who have ever tried the first Legacy of the Wild won't find anything innovative here since all the features are identical to those found in the 'older brother'. Thus, players get 2 kinds of Wild symbols, the Collapsing Reels, and the Wave-O-Meter feature, which leads to the bonus game. All the features work perfectly in pairs, complementing each other and creating a greater whole, so will hardly have a dull moment while spinning the slot.

As the title implies, Wilds play a central role in the gameplay, and thus we get 2 different Wild symbols to help us to form winning combinations. Players get a standard Wild and a special Book of Wild. Both of them act as substitutes for any other regular symbols except for the bonus ones.

Whenever the second one lands on the reels, up to 2 randomly chosen low-paying symbols will be removed from the grid for the duration of the current spin.

The Collapsing Reels feature is another highlight here. Whenever you land a winning combination, all the winning symbols get removed from the grid to allow new ones to tumble down onto the reels and occupy empty positions. The feature allows you to launch a chain of consecutive winning combos for it continues up to the moment when no new winning combos could be made.

Furthermore, the Collapsing Reels mechanic is the key to triggering the Free Spins bonus game. Alike the previous part of Legacy of the Wild, there's a Wave-O-Meter on the left side of the screen, which counts a number of the successive cascades and whenever a particular number is reached, players get access to the Free Spins round, and the more cascades you manage to get in the base game, the more spins you'll be awarded.

  • 5 Cascades - awards 8 Free Spins.
  • 6 Cascades - awards 10 Free Spins.
  • 7 Cascades - awards 15 Free Spins.
  • 8 Cascades - awards 20 Free Spins.
  • 9 Cascades - awards 30 Free Spins.
  • 10 Cascades -awards 50 Free Spins.

Landing a great succession of wins in a row might be quite a challenging task for sure, though, the reward is undoubtedly worth the wait. Moreover, keep an eye for the Book Wilds during the bonus game for every time they land onto the grid all instances of the low-value symbols get removed from the grid for the entire spin, allowing you to land truly massive wins on every cascade. Unfortunately, retriggers are not possible so since the Wave-O-Meter is not available during the bonus game.

Legacy of the Wild 2 - Verdict

Playtech Vikings did a remarkable job in terms of the design while failing to provide anything new.

Legacy of the Wild 2 feels like a bona fide copy of its 4-year-old sibling, yet delivered in a new package, so it leaves nothing but controversial thoughts about it. On the one hand, it's a nod to fans of the first part that the developers kept the original DNA, while on the other hand, it fails to have originality for sure.

It's the graphical improvement and the math model redraft where the changes end. Despite giving it a touch of styling and revising the figures, that kind of a lazy approach to the gameplay is a killjoy. It might appeal to newcomers and loyal fans of the first part, but it will hardly win everyone's heart for sure. Furthermore, even though the stats are promising, the maximum potential leaves much to be desired. All you can hope for is 1,000 times the stake, which is really poor according to the volatility level.

To conclude, it's still playable though and in case you're new to it and OK with the relatively low potential and simple gameplay, you're likely to love it. Otherwise, you won't find anything here to get super fired.
