At first glance at Quickspin’s Second Strike seems like a typical pub fruit slot with a symbol set we’re all familiar with – but take a look around the periphery of the reel face and you’ll see what makes this game different. Spins can be made from 0.10 to 100 coins on 10 fixed paylines, and once that game starts you’ll be playing two games at the same time. Second Strike’s unique outer wheel concept kicks in with every winning spin, and if it turns out well you’ve got a far greater chance of landing a high-paying win. However, the biggest prize is achieved by landing five diamonds on one of the 10 valid paylines, and this can be done in the base game or bonus feature. Cherries, plums, grapes and melons pay 2.4, 3, 3 and 4 times bet respectively when lined up in a row of 5. Land the bell, star, lucky 7 or diamond and these multiples rise to 10, 15, 20 or 100 times. Wild symbols are gold and bear the word ‘Wild’, making them refreshingly easy to spot. They can be used to substitute for any of the other symbols, with no exceptions. There are no scatter symbols to worry about in this game as the outer wheel is used in place of a free spins round. Use the Total Bet button and the neighbouring up and down arrows to select your total bet. This will apply to all 10 paylines, and you’ll start spinning as soon as you hit the rightmost orange button bearing the circular arrow. Gameplay table Lines: There are 10 fixed paylines on Second Strike Level: N/A Coin value: Use the Total Bet control to determine your stake Spin: The Spin button is the furthest to the right on the console at the bottom of the screen Max bet: This is set at 100 coins Autoplay: Use the smaller, double circular arrow button to set 10, 25, 50, 75, or 100 spins. Loss limits can be set using the Advanced option and can be set to 5, 20 or 50 times bet, customised or given no limits at all. Every single base game line win on Second Strike is treated to the game’s main feature, which is a rotating outer wheel bearing different symbols from the base game. The symbols that formed your highest-value win in the base game will be illuminated on the outer wheel, and a selector will revolve around the screen in a Wheel of Fortune-style decelerating clockwise motion. Should it stop on any of the illuminated symbols then a number of base game symbols will be replaced by that symbol in addition to those that formed the original winning line. Second Strike slot doesn’t have a jackpot feature, though you can win up to 10,000 coins. Second Strike comes with an RTP of 96.22%, and a volatility rating of 3.92 out of 5. In terms of wagering limits, you can bet from 0.10 coins up to 100 coins. Given its simple, traditional base game format it’s no surprise that Second Strike works well on all mobile devices when in this mode. Watching the action taking place on the outer wheel, though, is harder on small devices, so a tablet or larger smart device may be a good idea. You’ll need to rotate your device to load up the game, though once it’s established on the screen everything works perfectly. Second Strike stays true to its pub fruit roots with tastefully-designed, classic symbols and a highly authentic soundtrack. Land a winning line, however, and you’re given two games. The outer wheel concept is reminiscent of the kind of board game ideas seen on more complex pub games and makes a great deal of sense thematically. Second Strike slot: tips
