Eye of Persia 2

Eye of Persia 2 Slot Review

The reels sit in a gold scrollwork frame studded with rubies, under a violet dusk of domes and minarets, but Eye of Persia 2 isn’t really about its looks. It’s a game that deliberately starves its own base game of wilds, so the Jewel Rush ladder becomes the only thing worth chasing. Reflex run it on a 5×3 grid with 20 winlines, 96.0% RTP, Super High volatility and a ceiling of 34,595x the stake.

That ceiling is the whole point. The route there runs through a respin bonus that can hand out up to 100 free spins, every one of them carrying its own multiplier. It’s a bigger, meaner machine than siblings like 8 Balls of Fire or Bank of Blarney TopHit, and it doesn’t hide it. The jewel, as legend has it, transforms the fortunes of whoever bears it.

Base Game & Features

Wins pay left to right across the 20 fixed lines, and coinciding wins on different lines add together. All line wins are multiples of the total stake, and only the highest combination on each line counts. Stakes run from 0.20 to 100 per spin, with 1.00 as the default setting.

Working out a single payline win means counting identical symbols in sequence from the leftmost reel, then finding that run in the paytable. Three or more in a row pays. Where a winning combination starts with wilds and could be read several ways, only the highest interpretation is paid, and bonus symbols don’t need a payline at all.

The paytable splits into three tiers, with the premium symbols paying as follows:

• Palace Building / Red-veiled Woman: 3 pays x5, 4 pays x10, 5 pays x25
• Eagle: 3 pays x3, 4 pays x10, 5 pays x20
• Gold Coins: 3 pays x2.5, 4 pays x7.5, 5 pays x15
• Crossed Swords/Shield: 3 pays x2, 4 pays x5, 5 pays x10
• Red Diamond / Purple Heart: 3 pays x0.6, 4 pays x1, 5 pays x1.5
• Green Clover / Blue Spade: 3 pays x0.3, 4 pays x0.5, 5 pays x1

Two symbols share each pay value throughout, so the table reads as six steps rather than ten. The gap between tiers is wide: the top pair pays 25x for five, while the suit symbols pay 1x. The middle of the table is where most line wins actually come from.

The Princess symbol is wild and substitutes for everything except Scatters, but she doesn’t live in the base game: wilds only appear on the reel strips during the Princess Wilds bonus and in free spins. In the base game she’s a promise, not a presence.

Scatter Pays

Scatters appear on all reels and don’t need a payline. Three, four or five in view award the Jewel Rush Bonus, and they pay on the way in: x2 for three, x10 for four and x50 for five times the stake. Scatters don’t appear during free spins, so there’s no retriggering anything once the round is running.

That scatter pay is a flat award on top of the bonus, not part of it. It’s banked from the triggering spin before the Jewel Rush even begins, and anything the bonus goes on to pay is added to it afterwards rather than replacing it.

Princess Wilds

At random during any spin, the Princess Wilds bonus can fire. Up to 100 wild symbols are added to the spinning reels, which is the base game’s one flourish of chaos. When a large drop of wilds lands together, the win that follows can be substantial without any bonus round at all.

It’s the only thing keeping the base game lively between scatter hits. The hit rate sits at 26.04%, so roughly one spin in four connects, but most of those are small multiples at the low end of the table.

Eye of Persia 2 Jewel Rush and Free Spins

Jewel Rush Bonus

Three or more Scatters in view trigger the Jewel Rush Bonus, and the grid transforms completely. The game switches to 15 individual reels holding nothing but Jewel and Blank symbols. The Scatters that triggered the bonus become Jewels and lock in place.

From there, every non-locked reel respins, and any new Jewel that lands locks too. The respins keep coming until a respin produces no new Jewels. It’s a hold-and-respin build where the tension is entirely in the count.

That count matters because it converts directly into free spins:

• 3 Jewels: 5 free spins
• 4 Jewels: 6 free spins
• 5 Jewels: 8 free spins
• 6 Jewels: 10 free spins
• 7 Jewels: 12 free spins
• 8-9 Jewels: 15 free spins
• 10-11 Jewels: 20 free spins
• 12-14 Jewels: 30 free spins
• 15 Jewels: 100 free spins

The ladder is steep at the top. Filling all 15 positions is the game’s jackpot moment, and the jump from 30 spins to 100 is the single biggest prize step on the board. Everything the round pays is added to any win from the spin that triggered it.

One quirk of the collection: Jewels gathered in the Jewel Rush don’t feed the collected-symbol counter in the top bar. That counter belongs to the base game, so the bonus’s count is settled purely by what’s on the 15 reels at the finish.

Free Spins

Between 5 and 100 free spins follow the Jewel Rush, and the reels change again for them. The strips are loaded with 3-high stacked wilds, the full-length Princess symbol running the height of a reel. Scatters are absent, so the round runs to its finish with no retrigger.

Every single free spin awards a win multiplier, drawn from x2, x3, x4, x5, x10, x20 or x100. All wins are cumulative, so a long round of stacked wilds landing on high multipliers is where the ceiling becomes theoretically reachable. Short rounds with low multipliers pay like an ordinary base game.

Where several spins stack up, the running total can differ slightly from the figure the end screen shows, because the end screen displays the final rounded win. The full amount is what lands in the balance.

Our Honest Verdict

Overall Rating: 7.2/10

Playing this is mostly waiting. It’s a beautiful frame around a very traditional 20-liner, and the one reason to choose it over plainer Reflex titles is that the waiting occasionally erupts, either through a random flood of Princess wilds or a full Jewel Rush board. There’s a legend here about a jewel that transforms the bearer’s fortunes, and the game means it literally.

The strength is the ladder. Every locked Jewel makes the next respin matter, and the leap from 30 spins to 100 at the top gives the round a finish worth chasing rather than a payout curve that flatlines.

The weakness is everything between bonus hits. A 26.04% hit rate where most connections pay under a quid at 1.00 stake makes the base game feel thin, and the wilds that would enliven it simply aren’t on the reels. This one belongs to players who want a single long shot at 34,595x and don’t mind grinding for it; anyone after regular entertainment will find the desert crossing longer than the oasis justifies.
