Stumpy McDoodles 2

Foxium brought Stumpy and his wife Penny back for Stumpy McDoodles 2, keeping the same Irish-countryside setting while raising volatility to a high setting and rebuilding the bonus structure around cauldron collection.

The reels run 5 across and 5 down, crossed by 40 paylines, with wins formed from at least three matching symbols in a row. Card royals from Jack through Ace occupy the bottom of the pay table, five-of-a-kind paying 1x to 1.5x the stake; harps, four-leaf clovers, Penny and Stumpy occupy the higher tier, worth 3x to 10x for the top combinations. A wild appears frequently across the grid and substitutes for any regular paying symbol.

Two features can strike during ordinary base-game spins. Stumpy Random Wilds adds anywhere from 3 to 12 wild symbols to the reels at random on a paid spin, while Stumpy Treasure can drop a chest onto the grid worth 1x to 100x the stake, independent of any winning line.

The path to free spins in Stumpy McDoodles 2 runs through cauldron collection rather than a straight scatter trigger. Landing exactly two scatter symbols banks a cauldron on a meter beside the reels, and the number banked determines how many free spins are eventually awarded once a third scatter completes the trigger: 6 spins with none collected, rising through 8, 10, 12 and 15, up to 25 free spins once 16 cauldrons have accumulated. That meter carries over between spins at the same bet level rather than resetting.

Free spins open with a single wild already on the grid, one that changes position after every spin rather than staying fixed. Landing a wild coin during the round adds two further free spins and grows that wild's footprint; enough coins collected expand it into a Super Wild covering the full 5x5 grid, at which point every spin for the rest of the feature lands as a win.

RTP is confirmed at 96.2% at its highest configuration, with 94% and 92% versions also available, against a hit frequency of 26.72%. Stakes run from 0.20 to 20 per spin, and the combination of a high-volatility base game with the cauldron-driven free spins ladder builds toward Stumpy McDoodles 2's maximum win of 11,600x the stake.
