Sakura Fortune 2 (Quickspin) – Review & Demo Play

Sakura Fortune 2 Slot Overview

I returned to Sakura Fortune 2 and the blossom vibe still hits. The 5-reel 3-4-4-4-3 setup delivers 576 ways to win, with stakes from 20p to £100. It runs on a high volatility model and a default RTP of 96.03%. The sequel trims the grid so the cherry blossom temple shines, while Sakura takes centre stage on the middle reels. It feels familiar yet sharper, and the pace is smooth enough that I drifted into the zen soundtrack while spinning.

Sakura Fortune 2 Slot Information

Paytable-wise, the lows are four Asian coins with square holes in green, bronze, silver and gold. Five-of-a-kind pays 0.45x to 0.8x your bet. Premiums are a Koi statue, Jizo statue, plus the character set Yoshida, Tomoe and Sensei. Line up five premiums for 0.8x up to 6x wins across the 576 win ways. Wins hit left to right from the first reel, and combinations roll in across any row, which suits the stacked behaviour on those central reels.

Sakura herself is the wild, a four-high symbol that lands only on reels 2, 3 and 4. If she drops in partially, she can nudge to fill the entire reel, then lock for a respin. That is where base game momentum comes from. Sword scatters land on the middle reels to set up Fortune Free Spins. When three appear, reels 1 and 5 spin again with only swords on show, giving you a shot at upgrading the bonus.

Sakura Fortune 2 Slot Features

In base play, Sakura Wild Respins crop up often enough to keep things topped up. One or more wilds can nudge into full reels on 2, 3 or 4, and each full reel grants one respin with the triggering wild held. Double nudges can line up decent ways pays, and the 576 win ways help stacked symbols connect. It is familiar from the first game, only tighter, and the trimmed reel set makes the animations breathe a bit more.

Fortune Free Spins trigger via three sword scatters on the middle reels, then reels 1 and 5 respin with only swords to chase an upgrade. Three swords award 9 spins, four swords mean 10 spins with 1 locked Sakura Wild, and five swords give 11 spins with 2 locked Sakura Wilds. During the feature, every Sakura Wild always nudges to fill and becomes sticky to the end. Each new wild adds one extra free spin, and with three locked reels all wins go x3.

Where allowed, the Bonus Buy comes in three tiers priced at 55x, 70x and 320x for 3, 4 or 5 scatters, with RTPs of 96.24%, 96.44% and 96.72%. Not for UK players for sure. High volatility shines here, and the stated max win sits around 19,664x. From my sessions, two locked wilds often sit on reels 3 and 4, and without the third sticky reel it is tough to push past 200 to 300x, but when it lands the game can rip.

Sakura Fortune 2 Slot Conclusion

Sakura Fortune 2 threads lightly, pruning the bonsai rather than swinging a sledgehammer, and it works. The increase to 576 ways plus sticky wild reels and that x3 with three locked Sakuras gives the round proper punch. I got so absorbed in the tranquil atmosphere I lost track of time, then a nudge chain snapped me back. It can be too volatile for casuals, yet as a sequel it feels like a clear upgrade that keeps the spirit intact.
