Mahjong Ways 2 Features
Golden tiles and wilds
Golden mahjong symbols that are part of a winning spin are converted into wild symbols, which helps further wins.
Free spins
During the Free Spins Feature the maximum bonus multiplier goes up as much as 10 times, and all symbols on reel 3, except wilds and scatters, turn into golden mahjong symbols. That means many more tiles can become wilds.
RTP, volatility and maximum win
PG Soft lists an RTP of 96.95%, medium volatility and a maximum win of 100,000× the bet.
How it plays
Golden tiles that win become wilds, and the multiplier rises in the free spins. Because reel 3 turns golden in the free spins, many more tiles can become wilds there, which is the main reason they pay more.
Mahjong Ways 1 or 2?
Mahjong Ways is simpler, with a 25,000× maximum and up to x10 in the free spins. Mahjong Ways 2 has more rows, a golden reel 3 in the free spins and a 100,000× maximum.
