Cat Clans 2 Mad Cats: Slot Overview

Hey, feline-philes, here's one for you. It's the online slot Cat Clans 2 Mad Cats from Games Global partner Snowborn Games, a sequel to the original Cat Clans slot released roughly a year and a half previous to this one. There was also another one called Cats of the Caribbean, but that was more a standalone title, it just had cats in it. The hiatus has brought with it several changes to both theme and gameplay, some larger than others. Players who picked Cat Clans partly for the charming kitties don't need to worry, though; they're back, alongside several older and newer features.

Snowborn Games has completely turned its back on the mediaeval theme used in Cat Clans for part 2. Instead, Cat Clans 2 Mad Cats has one of those futuristic but not-too-distant future vibes where everything's gone to heck and humanity, or cats in this case, survive by banding together and fighting it out over resources – Mad Cats, Mad Max, you get the idea. The rocky, dusty, detritus-littered screen is a long way from the previous game's Highland setting. No complaints, though. It's always nice when a designer picks a new idea out of the hat for a sequel and runs with it.

The reel set-up remains the same, though, and the gaming is held on a 5-reel, 3-row matrix with 20 paylines for landing regular line wins across. Designed with four RTP settings, the highest is 96%, and at this level, the game is highly volatile while spitting out a win at a rate of 29.57%, theoretically speaking. Players may choose a stake of 20 p/c to $/€25 and can opt to buy 1 of 3 bonus buys.

Winning combinations start from the left side of the grid and consist of 3 to 5 matching symbols. From bottom to top, we find diamonds, spades, clubs, hearts, cans of cat food, petrol cans, then 4 cat character symbols. Landing a 5-symbol winning line pays 1.25 to 5 times the bet for the non-cat symbols or 10 to 12.5x the bet for 5 kitties. Wild grenades are present on all reels too. They pay 111x the bet for a 5 wild win, or they can be used to substitute for any regular pay symbol. Wilds also have a random multiplier. In the base game the values are x1 to x5, in Furry Spins the value may be x1 to x10.

Cat Clans 2 Mad Cats: Slot Features

For its remaining features, Cat Clans 2 Mad Cats has a Mystery Box, Cash Prize, Mad Respins, Furry Spins, and the Bonus Buy.

Myseyer Box and Cash Prizes

When Mystery Box symbols hit, they reveal any random symbol except the scatter symbol. When a Cash Prize symbol hits, it instantly awards 0.2 to 50 times the bet.

Mad Respins

Paw overlay symbols randomly hit and are collected when they do, randomly triggering the Mad Respins feature. During it, only Mystery Boxes or blanks may land. Landing a new Mystery Box triggers a new respin, and when no new box hits, the feature ends. Then, the Mystery Boxes in view open to reveal a random symbol. If the revealed symbol is a Cash Prize, all values are tallied and awarded.

Furry Spins

Landing 3, 4, or 5 scatter symbols awards 1.5, 3, or 9 times the bet, plus 3, 4, or 5 free spins, respectively. Landing a wild during Furry Spins resets the number of spins back to the original value. Wilds are sticky, too, staying on the reels until the feature ends. On each free spin, a random wild has its multiplier increased by +1. The round ends when no wild land on the reels and no free spins remain.

Feature Shop

The Feature Shop is where players can buy 3, 4, or 5 Furry Spins for the cost of 50, 80, or 200 times the bet. The same rules apply to the Furry Spins round as when triggering them naturally.

Cat Clans 2 Mad Cats: Slot Verdict

While the theme might have changed dramatically, the gameplay in Cat Clans 2 Mad Cats is more of a mixed bag. That is, some of it is recognisable from before, whereas a number of additions or subtractions have also been made. On the whole, change is a good thing in this case, as Cat Clans 2 Mad Cats offers a different experience to the game which preceded it while retaining links to the past, strengthening the series as a whole, should Snowborn Games choose to continue it.

Some of the positive changes include upping the limits of the Furry Spins feature. Before, in the equivalent Cat-a-pult Free Spins round, players were locked into getting 3 spins, and that was it – whether the feature triggered organically or was bought from the shop. Now, Cat Clans 2 Mad Cats ups the ante by making 4 or even 5 free spins a possibility. Interestingly, this hasn't increased the winning potential, which has stayed the same at 20,000x the bet, but few would complain about getting extra spins, so there is a new dimension in play. A positive one at that. The Clan Battle Bonus from the original release, where the cat symbol, which wins the most awards a prize, has been completely axed and replaced with Cash Prizes and the Mad Respin feature. The Mad Respins is not exactly a wildly innovative extra, but fun and somewhat reminiscent of the respin feature Money Train 3 used to break up its base game, too.

To sum up, players who got a kick out of Cat Clans should be able to get another one out of Cat Clans 2 Mad Cats, as well. Along with the drastic theme change, Snowborn Games has done more than enough tinkering with the visuals and gameplay, snipping stuff here, adding stuff there, to give Cat Clans 2 Mad Cats its own furry personality.

Good

A drastically new theme and a bunch of feature tweaks make Cat Clans 2 Mad Cats a sequel for fans of the original to sink their fangs into.
