Money Farm 2 Slot – Free Demo

Hen, Cow and the Card Royals

Money Farm 2 is a slot full of energy. Money Farm 2 is the sequel to GameArt's Money Farm. And GameArt's Money Farm 2 is not short on extras either. Its extras are a Free Spins round played on up to four reel sets and a Gamble feature that offers a double-or-nothing guess on a card's colour after a win.

The slot begins with a standard 5-reel, 3-row layout with 25 paylines, and chipping in will charge you 0.25 to 12.50 per spin. The paylines are fixed, so the stake is set through a line bet of 0.01 to 0.50. RTP rests at 95.74%, and volatility seems moderate. I played at a stake of 1.00 from a starting balance of 500.00.

On the low end are the card royals, and the high-payers are a group of farmyard creatures. The royals run from 9 to A and pay between 2 and 20 times the stake for five of a kind. In rising sequence is Goat, Dog, Pig, Sheep, and Cow, and Cow heads the paytable with 40 times the stake for five of a kind or, for the Hen wild, 80 times the stake for five of a kind. Below the Cow, five Sheep pay 36 times the stake, five Pigs 32, five Dogs 28 and five Goats 24.

There is one wild, and the regular kind is the Hen Wild. During the base game, this wild can appear to substitute for any symbol except Eggs and Golden Eggs. Line wins pay for matching symbols along a payline from left to right.

Golden Eggs Across Twelve Spins

The scatter is the Egg. Three, four or five Eggs anywhere on the reels pay 2 times the stake.

Land 3, 4 or 5 Eggs though, and you trigger Free Spins. The feature can also be triggered at random after any spin. The round grants 12 free spins. Free Spins cannot be retriggered, so the round ends when those 12 are spent. These are played on 2 reel sets, and Eggs change into Golden Eggs and are collected. The Golden Eggs are collected across the whole round, and the count decides how many reel sets are in play. There are three steps:

• 9 Golden Eggs: opens a third reel set with reel 5 Wild.
• 14 Golden Eggs: opens a fourth reel set with reels 4-5 Wild.
• 30 Golden Eggs: reels 3-5 become Wild on all four sets.

More Golden Eggs in the round signifies, evidently, that more Wild reels can show on a spin. Wild reels are tied to the thresholds, so a round that stops short of 9 Golden Eggs is played on the two starting sets with no Wild reels from the collection.

Our Minty Verdict: Of the 680.60 my 450 spins won, the three Free Spins rounds paid 72.20; the 222x hit on spin 157 came from the base game.

450 Spins on the Farm at 1.00

Money Farm 2 has features. Over 450 spins at a stake of 1.00 I wagered 450.00 and won 680.60. They can be a little puzzling at first but swiftly begin to make sense, and what I've discovered is that the game is mid volatile. 152 of the 450 spins paid something, and 85 of those paid less than the stake. Triggering the bonus naturally was not a genuine chore. The first Free Spins arrived on spin 35, the second 114 spins later on spin 149, and the third 82 spins after that on spin 231. The base game kept me afloat. The balance never dropped below 452.40, and the longest run without a win lasted 15 spins, ending on spin 222. I triggered the bonus three times in 450 spins during my opening run and ended at a 151.2% return. The balance finished at 730.60 after peaking at 746.50 on spin 408.

Much of the return stemmed from the base game, although there is not a ton going on in it. The two largest wins, 222 times the stake on spin 157 and 148 times on spin 408, both came without a bonus round. Free Spins were delivering merely 11% of everything won. The three rounds paid 25.00, 4.20 and 43.00, which comes to 72.20.

Money Farm 2 is one of those slots where the Golden Eggs can have a significant impact on the result of a spin and a sitting, and when they occur, Wild reels on all four sets, for instance, can be exceptional. Reaching Wild reels 3 to 5 on all four sets takes 30 Golden Eggs collected within a single 12-spin round. It's also pleasant to see a max win of 1,758 times your stake as a big juicy cherry on top.
