Bubble Bubble 2

If you enjoyed the original Bubble Bubble slot in the company of the two gorgeous witches Winni and Wanda, then this coming fall you are due for a treat as the duo return in Realtime Gaming's sequel slot Bubble Bubble 2.

The original game was one of the most popular Realtime Gaming games ever made and attracted a number of ardent fans who enjoyed the slot a great deal. So much so that Realtime Gaming have brought the game back, given it a tweak and added a few little extras and exciting new bonus features and the game is now good to go.

So the question is, can Winni and Wanda work their magic on new and existing customers for a second time, or is this beyond the powers of this rather cute pair of witches? With a host of different bonus games to trigger and some nice multiplier options, this is a game that certainly promises a great deal, the question is whether Wanda and Winni can deliver the goods.

Let's take a closer look and find out.

Presentation

The presentation on the Bubble Bubble 2 slot is very reminiscent of the original Bubble Bubble game. The two witches Winni and Wanda return and they are as cheeky and vivacious as ever, with their stocking clad legs more reminiscent of a Playboy bunny that a wicked old crone. The look of the slot, the sounds and the setting all evoke memories of the original but have been given a few additional flourishes to give the slot a rather charming feel.

Although this is a slot being released around Halloween, it isn't a scary slot at all. It's more a cheeky, comical slot and it is all the better for that as it means you can happily play this slot at any point in the year, much as many people did with the original.

What is on the reels?

There are a large number of symbols on the reels, with a mix of lower value symbols (that includes the skill, the bubbling cauldron, the Joy of Hex spell book and more) all offering lower value wins of between 3 coins and 75 coins.

There are also three mid-value symbols including the mouse and the owl, which offer pay outs ranging from 6 coins up to 300 coins depending on how many you land on a pay line. The highest value symbols are the bat and the cat symbols each of which offers a pay-out for just two symbols on a pay line and these rewards range from 3 coins up to 1,000 coins.

All wins in the base game can be increased by landing the Witch Wild symbols as shall be explained below.

Wild features

There is a total of four different Wild symbols in play on the game, but not all appear in the base game and when a Wild appears in a bonus round, we will mention it within that round. In the base game, there are just two Wilds on the reels and these are the two witches Winni and Wanda and they appear on the first and fifth reels only.

However, when the two witches appear on either of these reels they will expand to cover the entire reel and they can substitute for any symbol in the game, including (somewhat rarely) for scatter symbols, with each witch counting as one scatter symbol.

Furthermore, any pay lines completed by one of the Witch Wild symbols will receive a 3x multiplier as a bonus and if you can land both Wild Witches on the first and fifth reels on the same spin and they form part of the same winning pay line, then you will receive a massive 9x multiplier on that particular pay line win.

Free Spins features

To trigger the Free Spins feature you need to land three of the scatters, which is the wand symbol, left or right across the reels. When you do, you enter the bonus section and your first objective is to select one of the three scatters landed to reveal which of the three free bonus features that you will play.

The first feature is the Greater Ghosts feature which sees you receive 20 free spins and on each spin, up to nine Wild Ghosts will appear on the reels each time you land a win involving two or more scatter symbols on the reels. This bonus can be re-triggered while playing.

The second bonus is the Wilder Witches feature and this awards you 9 free games and each time a Witch lands on the reels, she will cast a spell. Any reel struck by the spell is turned into the same Witch that cast the spell, giving you a better chance of a bigger value win.

If both witches appear in this feature, they both cast a spell which turns the middle reel Wild or they will add a further 33 extra free spins to your total, or even do both if you are especially fortunate. This feature can also be re-triggered from within the bonus round. Furthermore, if you don't win at least 10 times your stake in this feature, then the Win-Win feature will trigger and will award you a bonus cash prize.

The final bonus game is the Ultra Bewitched Feature which sees you awarded 7 free games and on each spin, you get at least one expanded wild symbol guaranteed. Both witches can appear on this bonus to offer you two wild symbols on the reels and once again, this feature can be re-triggered from within the bonus game.

Other bonus features

Other than the features outlined above, there are no other additional features on the Bubble Bubble 2 slot.

Best feature of the Bubble Bubble 2 slot

While the free game features on the Bubble Bubble 2 slot are great fun and can lead to some exciting wins, I think the best feature is the two Expanding Wild witches that appear on the first and fifth reels in the base game, as well as being the focus of some of the big bonus games and their value throughout the slot in different sections make them key to its success and appeal.

What does the Bubble Bubble 2 slot lack?

Although the two Witches appearing together in a single spin in the base game is the way to unlock some of the bigger base game wins (and the only way to land the 9,000-coin jackpot), I would have perhaps liked to see a randomly triggered base game bonus to help keep this part of the slot more varied. There's nothing wrong with the base game as such, but spinning it continually with only the other bonuses to aim for does get a little repetitive when the slot plays more tightly.

Conclusion

If you enjoyed the original Bubble Bubble slot then Wanda and Winni's return in the sequel will delight you as much as the first game. If you are new to the series, then what you have here is a fine slot game from Realtime Gaming that is playable across a wide range of devices and which offers a number of decent pay outs, especially when you trigger the bonus games. The styling of the slot is very much in the vein of the original and works very well as although it is a "spooky" slot it also contains more fun elements too. Overall, this is likely to be another winner for Realtime Gaming and one of the most popular slots especially around Halloween.

Ratings

• Presentation: 16 / 20 - The Bubble Bubble 2 slot looks very much like the original game and in truth, initially you fail to see how much different the sequel is, but after a few spins you start to notice some nice little touches, such as the Bats fluttering in the top left corner of the screen from time to time. The reels are neatly done and the buxom Wanda and Winni remain arguably the most attractive witches you are likely to come across.
• Game-Play: 14 / 20 - The original Bubble Bubble slot proved to be a huge hit for Realtime Gaming and it is unsurprising that the company has decided to go with very similar game-play in this sequel. That's no bad thing though as the game plays at a decent pace, there are a nice mix of wins although you do need to trigger the bonus features to stand a chance of the bigger value wins. All in all though, this is a fun to play slot which packs some nice and rewarding features.
• Bonus features: 17 / 20 - I think the selection of features in the Bubble Bubble slot is excellent and perhaps the best aspect of the slot. From Winni and Wanda appearing as the expanding Wilds on the first and fifth reels, through to the three different bonus features you can trigger when you land the trio of scatters. Add to this the Win-Win bonus and there's a huge amount of variation and depth when it comes to bonuses here.
• Entertainment factor: 14 / 20 - The Bubble Bubble 2 slot is a game that is enjoyable to play and that is key. The base game is fun, you win relatively frequently and the two expanding Wilds play a key role in landing you some decent base game returns until you hit the bonus features. Double clicking the Spin allows you to spin at a much faster rate too. With jaunty music as your accompaniment, this is a slot you tend to play with a smile on your face.
• Play value: 13 / 20 - I must admit, I wasn't quite sure where to peg this slot in terms of variance. At first, I thought it was a lower variance slot, but after a few sessions, I began to change my mind and think it more medium. In the end I think it is somewhere between the two but it is a slot which can be rewarding one minute, but play more tightly the next and as such it's play value can be variable, but generally works out relatively fair for players, especially when played over the longer term.
• Overall 74 / 100 - I enjoyed the spins I played through on the Bubble Bubble 2 slot. Having played the original, and equally found that game fun to play, I think if you experienced the first slot, you'll find this one to your liking. This is a slight improvement on that original with some newer features and perhaps a little more depth, which I felt enhanced the game, but it is still all packed in that same "Bubble Bubble" style that everyone loves.

Good Luck!
