Butterfly Staxx 2 is powered by NetEnt and is the sequel to Butterfly Staxx. With 5 reels and 40 paylines, you can spin away on all devices from 25p to £1,250 per spin. It offers a re-spins, butterfly spins and a Butterfly Frenzy feature where you can win cash prizes from the 5 stages.
Visually, Butterfly Staxx 2 is rather peaceful as you enter an enchanted world once again – with music that would be appropriate in a spa setting, you will see A, K, Q and J card suits as well as 3 different flowers and a glowing butterfly. The latter is the most rewarding with 5 on a payline giving you 2 times your stake. There’s also a lotus flower wild which can appear anywhere on the reels in the base game – it replaces all symbols bar the scatter.
The butterfly symbol can landed fully stacked – when it does so entirely on a reel, you will trigger the Re-Spins feature. All butterfly symbols fly to the leftmost position on the same row where a butterfly symbol isn’t present – i.e. if they are no butterfly symbols on reel 1, they will all shift to reel 1.
The stacked butterfly will then remain on the reels for a re-spin. If the 2 leftmost reels are covered by butterflies, you will unlock a second play area. If the 3 leftmost reels are filled with butterflies, you will play with a third play area. They respectively give you double and treble the chance to form winning combination.
Butterfly Staxx 2 also comes with a scatter symbol – when it appears on reels 1, 3 and 5 at the same time, you will choose between 2 bonus features. In the Butterfly Spins feature, only cocoon symbols can appear on the reels which can be dormant or active. Active cocoon symbols will transform into butterfly symbols which then fly to the leftmost position on the same row. You will play this feature will 3 play areas throughout.
Then you have the Butterfly Frenzy feature – you get the opportunity to pick Butterfly symbols and increase the total win potential. With 5 different stages, you get 10 picks – here’s what you can win:
- Stage 1: each butterfly will be worth 0.4, 1 or 1.6 times your stake
- Stage 2: each butterfly is worth 1, 1.6 or 2 times your stake
- Stage 3: every butterfly is worth 1.6, 2 or 3 times your stake
- Stage 4: each butterfly will give you 2, 3 or 4 times your stake
- Stage 5: you’ll get 3, 4 or 5 times your stake for each butterfly
Butterfly Staxx 2 may seem complicated but it’s all about the butterfly symbols which shift if you get a stack of them. It’s quite similar the original but there’s up to 3 play areas which can result in bigger wins. The more butterfly symbols you get basically, the bigger your potential payout.
