Gonzo’s Quest 2 Slot Review

Gonzo’s Quest 2 Overview

As someone who hammered the original Gonzo’s Quest for years, firing up Gonzo’s Quest 2 felt like stepping back into El Dorado with a heavier backpack. This sequel sticks with the 6-reel avalanche setup, starting at 6x4 with 4,096 ways and stretching to 6x8 with 262,144 ways to win. The avalanche multipliers, colossal symbols and fresh twist on free spins give the whole thing a thicker, more modern feel.

Under the jungle dressing, Gonzo’s Quest 2 is a high volatility slot with a 96.06% RTP and a max win of 15,825x your bet. Stakes start at 30p a spin in the UK, so I could prod it quite safely before pushing the stake. It plays like a proper feature-packed sequel rather than a reskin, with super free spins doing the heavy lifting when the multipliers refuse to reset.

Gonzo’s Quest 2 Slot Details

In practice, Gonzo’s Quest 2 fires wins when three to six matching symbols land on adjacent reels from the leftmost side. Every base game spin starts on a 6x4 grid; each win triggers an avalanche that can add up to four extra rows, so the ways to win climb stepwise to 262,144. Hit frequency sits around 23%, so streaky patches are common, yet long avalanche chains can land in surprising bursts.

Theme, Audio + Symbols in Gonzo’s Quest 2

NetEnt has kept the familiar Mayan temple setting, and I liked how closely Gonzo’s Quest 2 mirrors the first game without feeling dated. Gonzo stands beside the stone reels, muttering away as waterfalls and jungle foliage frame the grid. The soundtrack leans on hand drums and low chants that rise when the avalanches get rolling, giving the session an adventurous rhythm that fits the constant tumbles and expanding rows.

Symbol-wise, you get four lower-paying carved tiles in red, green, yellow and blue, each worth 0.17x for six of a kind. Above them sit six stone mask premiums, paying between 0.23x and 1x for a full hit. Wilds substitute for all regular pay symbols, while the Calamity Wild sits in its own class, used to trigger random wild drops. Scatter symbols are your route into free spins and super free spins.

I spent plenty of time on mobile too, and Gonzo’s Quest 2 holds up well there. On portrait mode the 6x8 grid still feels readable once the rows climb, and the animations do not choke the performance. The avalanche mechanic remains clear even on a small screen, which matters when you are tracking multipliers, colossal symbols and new rows after each win during long, grinding bonus rounds.

Bonus Features in Gonzo’s Quest 2

In the base game, every win triggers the avalanche feature, clearing winning symbols and feeding in fresh tiles from above. Each avalanche adds one step to the global multiplier, up to x5, and grows the grid by a row, up to eight high. When a Calamity Wild helps form a win, the random wilds feature fires, throwing three to six standard wilds onto the grid before the next avalanche tumbles through.

Free spins land when three to six scatters appear in succession from the leftmost reel, giving 10, 12, 15 or 20 spins. Regular free spins start on a x2 global multiplier that climbs by two with each avalanche, while the grid can lock in at taller heights between spins. If at least one triggering scatter is colossal you move into super free spins, where the multiplier steps are larger and, vital for big hits, never reset. Outside the UK there is a feature buy menu that can guarantee scatters, Calamity Wilds, a fully expanded grid or straight entry into free spins or super free spins at fixed bet multipliers, which is handy when you just want to test high-volatility rounds instead of grinding the base game.

Expert Verdict on Gonzo’s Quest 2

As someone who has put plenty of spins through every Gonzo outing, I rate Gonzo’s Quest 2 as a proper step up for players who like avalanche slots with teeth. The base game can drag but Calamity Wilds, colossal symbols and expanding rows keep it from feeling flat, and once super free spins get going the non-resetting multiplier can build absurd potential. With 15,825x on the table, it earns a place in my rotation.
