Slot Wars - Fruit Party VS Fruit Party 2

Are you ready for another high-power Slot Wars face-off?! This time one of the legendary and much-loved games Fruit Party is clashing its upgraded version Fruit Party 2. Pragmatic Play is known on the online gambling market as the creator of some of the best and most popular video slots but is the Fruit Party sequel able to take down the OG. 

Let the Slot War begin!   

Two of the most important characteristics of every video slot are the winning potential and theoretical return to player (RTP). In terms of these traits, both games are on pretty even ground. The provider decided to keep the winning potential at the same level which was a bit disappointing but with 5,000x the stake as the max possible payout, players can still land some massive wins. The RTP is slightly better in the 2nd Fruit Party installment with 96.53% while the original release holds 96,47%.  

One of the reasons Fruit Party is so loved among the slot players is due to its simple yer highly entertaining gameplay. The cluster pays mechanics as well as tumbling/cascading feature means the wins can just keep rolling. Also, random multipliers appear during the base and bonus game and can reach up to 256x in value. There is of course a 10 Free Spins round that gets activated by landing at least 3 Scatters. 

Players spinning the Fruit Party 2 reels have access to the same cluster pays and tumble feature. The welcomed addition to the gameplay is a Multiplier Wild which can significantly boost your winnings with up to 256x in value. Another upgrade is in the bonus round where depends on the number of Scatters won, the reward comes in a form of 10, 12, 15, 20, or 25 Free Spins. 

Although the theme is the same and Pragmatic has gone for the extremely similar game design, differences when it comes to visual and audio effects are still noticeable. Both releases feature sharp graphics and smooth animations so it comes down to personal taste. The colors in the sequel are a bit glossier and the soundtrack is more upbeat. The original title has a more chill vibe in that regard. 

One thing is certain - no matter which of the Fruit Party titles you decide to play, you will get to enjoy a first-class gambling experience. There is no doubt some players would still prefer the first installment of the game but what gives the sequel an extra edge are bonus features. Pragmatic has taken everything players loved about the first release, transferred it into the second, and then spiced it up with Multiplier Wilds and increased Free Spins round. That’s where the Fruit Party 2 really excels and what makes it a winner of this Slot Wars episode.
