How it plays
The sequel expands to a 5-reel, 4-row grid with an extra row on reels 2, 3 and 4, paying 2,000 ways at default bets of €0.20 to €50.
RTP rises slightly to 96.95%, with medium session volatility and a 29.90% hit rate. As in the original, cascades step the win multiplier up ×1→×2→×3→×5, and gold-plated symbols on reels 2–4 turn into Wilds after winning.
Bonus features
Three Scatters trigger 10 free spins (+2 per extra Scatter, retriggerable). During free spins every symbol on reel 3 appears in gold — so any reel-3 symbol in a win becomes a Wild — and cascade multipliers rise to ×2, ×4, ×6 and ×10.
The advertised theoretical maximum is 100,000× the bet; the studio's 1-billion-spin simulation topped out at 1,708×.
Verdict
Mahjong Ways 2 keeps everything that worked in the original and adds a bigger grid and the all-gold third reel in free spins. The 100,000× advertised ceiling is theoretical, but the sequel's slightly higher 96.95% RTP makes it the stronger spec sheet of the two.
