Stumpy McDoodles 2 Review
Back in 2019, the world was introduced to Stumpy McDoodles and his wonderful wife in an Irish slot developed by Foxium. Whilst this game contained some entertaining moments, it failed to take off as a huge success.
Fast-forward to years later and Foxium has teamed up with Microgaming to release a sequel in the form of Stumpy McDoodles 2. Playing on 5-reels with 40 paylines, Stumpy McDoodles 2 contains everything a player could need including modifiers, free spins and giant wilds leading to mega wins.
Design
There is definitely a graphical overhaul to the sequel as the design is a lot cleaner and more tasteful. The character models are similar but more polished.
The background of the slot resembles a serene fairytale landscape with uniquely shaped trees and definitely delivers something different for an Irish slot. Of course, there are Irish symbols such as shamrocks and harps on the reels, but they do not look tacky and instead look nicely designed.
Instead of a jaunty Irish tune, there is instead a farm-inspired track with banjos and other stringed instruments building up the momentum. It's a relief to not have the stereotypical music and doesn't feel too out of place.
Gameplay
Anything could literally happen at any moment which is brilliant. There are two modifiers as well as a free spins round with giant symbols and cauldrons leading to even more free spins.
All the relevant buttons, such as spin and bet level, can be found on the right of the screen with the paytable and sound settings as well.
Win Potential
Whilst the original Stumpy McDoodles wasn't bad for its win potential, the sequel has definitely improved upon the game. The RTP is 96.20% with a high volatility level instead of medium.
In addition to this, the maximum win is now 11,600x the stake instead of 2,000x the stake. This can be achieved through the free spins round with the cauldron and giant symbol.
Our Verdict
Stumpy McDoodles 2 is a delightful Irish slot that manages to find the right blend of tasteful and tacky. There are so many features throughout this slot that you cannot help but enjoy the ride.
Even the win potential and general design are improved from the original making Stumpy McDoodles 2 a must-play slot if you love Irish games or the original.
