Sweet Alchemy 2 Features
The first thing to point out is that it will probably take a Herculean effort to comply with the rules to take you out of the base game. It's not that it is complicated to understand but rather that it is fairly difficult to achieve—especially with pretty high volatility. However, it is possible, so let's see what features this game has in store.
Wild symbols
Not every review will mention wild symbols as a noteworthy feature, but we think that the 2 distinctive wilds available in Sweet Alchemy 2 deserve to be highlighted.
The first is a Striped Wild that can land and substitute all others to create a winning combo. As it does so, it gives a bit of a boost to the avalanche mechanic and continues to remove all symbols across the entire horizontal and vertical row on which it sits.
The second wild is the Gobstopper Wild which can have up to 5 lives allocated to it and make it stick around for a little while.
Free Spins
To unleash the power of free spins, you won't need scatter symbols or other special combos to occur. In theory, it is easy and all you need to do is continue to hit more and more wins.
With each combo that lands, the same number of chocolate squares are removed from the outer reaches of the grid. Further combos continue to remove these squares and the bonus is triggered as the last chocolate block disappears.
The bad news is that this could be quite a number of consecutive wins to bring this elusive feature into the light. Unfortunately, when you get there, you only receive 4 free spins.
As the free spins begin, you are treated to the addition of 2x2 symbols that will hopefully bring more wins along for the ride. If you manage to wipe out all of the chocolate blocks once again, you are then awarded a further 4 free spins and the cluster blocks become 3x3. This happens once again making the total a possible 12 free spins with a large 4x4 symbol in play to help land winning combos.
There is an additional feature upgrade to look out for. Winning symbols will be added to the metre to the side of the reels and when this is full, you are awarded a potion bottle. If you manage to make it through all of the above levels, then you are taken to a bonus wheel with however many potion bottles you have in your possession.
Each bottle represents a spin of the wheel and the wheel will provide a multiplier figure that is used to increase the winnings you received thus far. Confused? Don’t be—it sounds more complicated than it is.
