Cygnus 2

Cygnus 2 Slot (ELK Studios)

Partially inspired by Ancient Egypt, Cygnus 2 comes with an interesting storyline, that also relies on the stars and constellations as part of its backdrop.

The sequel we've all been waiting for, Cygnus 2, stands on the shoulders of its successful predecessor released three years ago.

Below is the review of this new slot by ELK Studios :

Game Set-Up

The Cygnus 2 slot kicks off with 6 reels and 4,096 possible winning patterns, with the potential to expand to an impressive 262,144.

Its standout features include Avalanches, which bring expanding reels , alongside free spins and Rising Multipliers to spice up the gameplay.

Betting and Prizes

ELK Studios continues their tradition of generosity with Cygnus 2, where you can place real money bets starting at just $0.20, scaling all the way up to $100, sticking to the developer's standard betting parameters.

Get ready to chase top prizes that can hit 50,000x your bet in one thrilling spin, but be mindful of the high volatility accompanying these rewards.

With a 95% RTP, it falls slightly below what modern slots usually offer, where 96% has become the norm.

Cygnus 2 Game Features

Unlock the Avalanches feature by forming symbol combinations in the game, which replaces winning symbols with new ones.

Each Avalanche adds an extra row of symbols, multiplying the ways to win. These continue until no further combinations can be formed. The grid can grow into a spectacular 6x8 setup, with 262,144 win paths.

Cygnus 2 occasionally drops a multiplier wild; landing it on the 1st reel can enhance your wins between 3x to 10x.

However, if the Avalanches push this wild off to any of the last 5 reels, it will be removed, only to be re-added in a reel near the 1st. Each time the multiplier lands on the 1st reel, it evolves into a wild.

Land some bonus symbols on the 1st reel to receive 7 free spins, with an option to retrigger the feature the same way. If the Rising Multiplier climbs, it keeps the multiplier increases intact.

Theme & Design

In designing Cygnus 2, ELK Studios reached towards celestial inspiration. Players will find an observatory setting on the game's backdrop, complete with a telescope poised on the right.

A dazzling array of gemstones in various shapes and hues graces the reel symbols. Higher payouts come from symbols like goats, lions, scorpions, the Sun, and game logos.

Conclusion

Cygnus 2 comes across as a compelling sequel from elite creators, ELK Studios, impressing with generous payouts, stellar features, and top-tier visuals .

The marriage of intense volatility with an RTP that misses the mark slightly is the game's sole letdown.
