House of Doom 2: The Crypt

House of Doom 2 is a bewitching online slot filled with gothic goodies and a unique soundtrack. Are you ready to delve into the Crypt? And will the three Mistresses of Doom offer the wilds you seek to get to that potential 6000x stake max win?

Play’n Go has really conjured up a worthy successor to the original House of Doom slot. Inside this slot of the damned are many spooky symbols such as spiked skulls, deadly nightshade flowers, demonic daggers, and melted candles. The three mistresses of these reels give additional bonuses to both base game and bonus rounds, and Crypt symbols offer the chance to trigger free spins. This is truly a slot for lovers of the macabre.

Wilds upon wilds await in The Crypt. Three character symbols represent wilds in this slot and give it a very feature-rich base game, with each mistress providing her own bonus. The game also includes expanding symbols and specially selected reels. Because of this, the main bonus feature of The Crypt is its free spins feature.

Three logo scatter symbols across reels 1, 3, and 5 will trigger the free spins bonus. Eight spins will be on offer here, and a select number of reels will be given a Spirit Gate for each spin. This Spirit Gate will cause any wild symbol that lands on it to expand and use its special feature, some of which include multipliers of up to 10x.

Crypt Spins have the potential to trigger, similar to other free spins, there is a special wild symbol, but this time it is the Spirit of Unity, and she will bestow all other wild features on the reels.

Spirit Gates can activate across the base game and free spins. In the base game, an extra, internal reel can spin inside any of the other reels and choose one of the wild symbols, whichever wild is chosen will expand to the full size of that reel if it appears, executing its special feature. This can be multipliers for the Fire Mistress, symbol conversion for the Metal Priestess, and expanding Spirit Gates across all reels for the Queen of the Damned.

House of Doom 2 is a high volatility slot with nine different base game symbols and three wilds, all of which need between three and five symbols on the reels at the same time to generate a win. There are 20 paylines to play across and Spirit Gates can appear on any reel to encourage expanding wilds.

When it comes to symbols, each has its own range of payout:
10, J, Q, K, and A are the low-paying symbols of this slot game. They need at least three symbols to generate a win. The lowest payouts range from 0.32x to 0.64x stake for three symbols.
Knives, Nightshade, Candles, and Skulls (also known as Ritual Relic symbols in this slot) are the higher paying symbols that also need a minimum of three per reel to generate a win but have a higher base value of 1.2x to 2.4x stake for three, the most valuable of these symbols, the skull, will give a 16x stake payout for five symbols.

Three Wilds exist in this base game, each with a unique and bewitching character with its own modifier.
Fire Mistress awards multipliers of 2x, 3x, 5x, or 10x.
Metal Priestess will transform all other Ritual Relics on the reels into Skulls.
Queen of the Damned will unlock Spirit Gates on all reels.

It’s simple to get started on these witchy reels. Use the arrow keys to scroll through the bets, or choose one manually. It will be highlighted in blue when selected. Bets placed range from £0.20 to £100. When you’re ready, just select the illuminated green button in the bottom right to spin. A respin is granted if a wild symbol lands within a Spirit Gate, and no button will need to be pressed to trigger this particular spin.

Play’n Go released House of Doom 2 in 2021 as a sequel to the popular House of Doom slot released in 2018. This sequel keeps a lot of charm and gothic aesthetic of its predecessor, with lots of upgrades features, such as Spirit Gates and expanding wilds. The music within this spooky slot is a joy for our Rock and Metal lovers, with gothic singing, and changing music tracks throughout the game. It is certainly a tailored experience, catering to a niche audience, who we think will enjoy the theme of this slot game if they try it.

As this is a sequel, it would be a shame to gloss over its predecessor, the spooky and bewitching House of Doom, but Playn’ Go offer a vast library of very different games, so if you’re looking for something a bit less metal, why not try Ice Joker

House of Doom is fairly unique as far as slots go, but if you’re looking for something spooky, you could check out Mythic Maiden or Creature from the Black Lagoon for something more occult. All of these and more can be found on LeoVegas UK.
