Wandering the Same Corridors
San Quentin 2: Death Row focuses on the same five inmates introduced to players in the first installment: Crazy Joe, Biker Bill, Heinrich 3rd, Loco Luis, and Beefy Dick with more years on them. The slot plays with an upgraded matrix, which starts with a 5x4 format and can expand up to six high. The audiovisuals are familiar yet have significant improvements that tap into the nostalgia of the first slot while offering a whole new experience.
Enhanced Features
In the main game, locked Enhanced Cells line the top and bottom of the grid, waiting to be unlocked by bonus symbols. The cells can reveal any of the five premiums, a wild, Razor Split, or xWays icon.
Razor Split characters split all icons on a regular reel and double them. If these special symbols appear at the top and bottom of the same reel, the icons split twice. Splitting a scatter turns it wild and splits the entire row. On the other hand, xWays icons unveil the same regular pay symbol stacked five high. Two xWays on the same reel reveal ten wilds.
The slot awards eight Green Mile Spins when three to five scatters appear, and they play with one to three Jumping Wilds. These wilds influence the game dynamics by determining how many Enhanced Cells remain active. The wilds can also feature a 2x multiplier.
High Risk for High Rewards
San Quentin 2: Death Row has a 12 rating on the volatility scale, delivering a brutal, high-stakes experience. The game’s maximum win potential is chunkier, standing at 200,000x, making it enticing for players who love a challenge. The accompanying RTP rate is 96.13%, and accepted wagers range from $0.20 to $100.
Per Lindheimer, Head of Product at NoLimit City, highlighted the company’s enthusiasm with the new release: “We’re back at San Quentin, and what a wild ride this sequel has been. Expectations were sky-high, so we pulled out all the stops to create a game worthy of the San Quentin legacy. With a 200,000x max win and the option to trade spins for extra Jumping Wilds, we hope players get a thrill from San Quentin 2 just as much as we did making it!”
