Sweet Alchemy 2 (Play’n GO) – Review & Demo Play

How to Play Sweet Alchemy 2 Slot

I started Sweet Alchemy 2 on a 9x9 grid that opens as you win. Each spin begins with a 5x5 active area. Land clusters of 4+ matching sweets, horizontally or vertically, to get paid. Winning symbols drop out, and the same number of chocolate blocks are smashed, expanding the active grid for the next cascade. Stakes range from 0.10 to 100 per round, and I found the cluster engine easy to read once the edges break and new lanes open.

I use the bet control below the grid and hit Spin or tap Space. There’s a Stop to cut short a drop. Autoplay sets a batch of rounds, though some regions limit it. Hold Space for hyper-spins to rush cascades. The info page shows paytable, features, RTP, and rules. On mobile and desktop it runs well, and the 5x5 start keeps things brisk until a couple of clusters crack enough chocolate to wake the wider 9x9.

Symbols and Payouts in Sweet Alchemy 2

The slot carries eight standard sweets. Low pays are circular, cone, arc, and cube; high pays are pastille, nut, heart, and star. With cluster pays, 4-of-a-kind returns 0.2 to 1x bet, while 20+ low clusters hit 50x to 100x, and 20+ high clusters pay 125x to 250x. All values scale with stake. Clusters must touch side-to-side, not diagonally. I rate the high symbols as the key targets when the grid is wide, as cascades can pull big groups together.

Two wilds help a lot. Striped Wild substitutes and, when used in a win, clears its full row and column, carving space through the sweets. Gobstopper Wild also substitutes and drops with up to five lives, staying in play through multiple cascades until its lives run out. Both wilds keep momentum, especially when the active area is expanding, and they can chain with each other to set up larger clusters that weren’t obvious before the drop.

Sweet Alchemy 2 Bonus Features

Cascades are central in Sweet Alchemy 2. Each win removes the cluster and smashes the same number of chocolate blocks, widening the grid. This is the route to features and bigger wins. I’ve had sequences where one early cluster opens two edges, then a Striped Wild clips a whole line and you suddenly have a far larger board. It can just as easily stall, so pacing bets around those stretches where the grid stays tight makes sense.

Clear every chocolate block and you trigger 4 free spins with 2x2 mega symbols landing. Chocolate returns in the round; clear it again for +4 spins and 3x3 mega symbols. Do it a third time and you get +4 more with 4x4 mega symbols. That’s up to 12 free spins total. The jump in symbol size changes the geometry, so clusters form faster on the bigger grid, though four spins per stage keeps the bonus brisk.

During free spins, a side meter tracks collected symbols. Fill thresholds to earn potion bottles; each bottle awards a spin in a bonus round after free spins. A segmented wheel then spins for a multiplier up to x25, applied to the total won in the free spins. When I’ve hit the wheel with multiple potions, the chance to land a double-digit segment made modest freebies turn respectable, but it can whiff as well, so the meter grind matters.

RTP & Volatility in Sweet Alchemy 2

Play’n GO lists 96.2% RTP and a very high volatility profile. Max win is 10,000x bet. In my sessions, the base can feel dry until the chocolate gives way, then the game opens up. The maths shines when free spins arrive with mega symbols and the post-bonus wheel applies up to x25 to the total. I keep stakes steady and let cluster chains work, rather than chase with big jumps.
