Nolimit City is back behind bars with San Quentin 2: Death Row. It’s been nearly 4 years since the OG San Quentin xWays® escaped into the world, and the fans have been hungry for more ever since. Well, the wait is over. It’s time to do hard time… again. This isn’t Nolimit City’s first sequel of the year, following the bangers Fire in the Hole 2 and Punk Rocker 2. But San Quentin 2? It’s something else!
San Quentin 2 steps it up a level from its predecessor with some serious graphic makeovers to the returning characters, including the one and only Beefy Dick. That’s not all! Nolimit City has also turned up the stakes by adding some tantalising features that’ll have your heart pounding harder than a prison escape on execution day.
In the base game, locked Enhancer Cells sit on top and below each reel, waiting to be cracked open by Bonus Symbols. Enhancer Cells may reveal 1 of the 5 top paying symbols, Wild Symbol, Razor Split or xWays® Symbol. Nolimit City’s signature xMechanics really come in clutch to elevate the gameplay in San Quentin 2. The Razor Split Symbol will shred the reels, splitting symbols like a sharpened shiv and in the event that another Razor Split Symbols lands on the top or bottom Enhancer Cells, then the symbols in the same reel are split twice! In addition to this there are regular Split Wilds that can land on any reel and will split all the regular symbols on the same reel.
The xWays® Symbol reveals a 5-high stacked symbol, but if two xWays® land in active Enhancer Cells, they flood the reel with 10 Wilds. xBet® guarantees 1 Bonus Symbol anywhere on the reels. Double xBet® guarantees 2 Bonus Symbols on the reels. Landing 1 or 2 Bonus Symbols in the base game will turn it into a Wild Symbol and open the Enhancer Cells on it’s reels.
Hitting 3,4 or 5 Bonus Symbols gets you closer to the execution date by heading into Green Mile Spins with 1,2 or 3 Jumping Wilds respectively. But before you head down the Green Mile, you’ve got a tough choice: draw extra Jumping Wilds or keep what you’ve got. Players will get the opportunity to draw additional Jumping Wilds to a maximum of 5 Jumping Wilds or collect the Jumping Wilds already awarded. Be careful tho, drawing extra Jumping Wilds could come at the expense of losing 5 spins. Life in the yard is all about high risks, especially when reaching 5 Jumping Wilds, where you are given the choice to risk losing 5 spins or getting the Max Win!
Jumping Wilds also unlock Enhancer Cells based on their numbers, with some Wilds getting multipliers that double if split by a Razor Split. Land Bonus Symbols on closed cells? You’ll unlock more Jumping Wilds and extra spins—3 to 6, depending on how many Symbols you land. Landing Bonus Symbols on the reel with a closed Enhancer Cell will unlock it and then will transform into a Jumping Wild. Landing 2-5 Bonus Symbols will award 3-6 extra spins respectively!
It’s a lot to digest but you’ll have plenty of time for that while doing some hard time with Beefy. When execution day finally arrives, a whopping maximum payout of 200,000x the base bet is awarded. San Quentin 2: Death Row is considered to be “Insanely Volatile” which comes at no surprise, considering that Nolimit City are known for their highly volatile but high paying catalogue of online slots.
Per Lindheimer, Head of Product at Nolimit City, said: “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!“
‘San Quentin 2: Death Row’ will be available to all Nolimit City partners on September 24th, 2024.
