Money Train 2 Slot

Ask a British slots player to name a Relax Gaming game and this is the one that comes back. Money Train 2 arrived in
2020, spent the next three years welded to the top of every streaming rotation,
and it is still the entry in the series that most people have actually put money
into.

Worth saying out loud, because there are four of these now and they are not the
same game with a different number painted on the front.

How to play

Five reels, four rows and forty fixed paylines, wrapped in a Wild West that has
been left out in the rain for a decade. It looks cheap in a screenshot and
considerably better once it is moving.

Two bonus symbols anywhere on the reels is the thing to watch for outside the
feature. Each one turns over a multiplier, the reels respin until a win finally
arrives, and the multiplier climbs for every respin that produces nothing. It is
the only moment in the base game with any tension in it at all.

What the Money Cart actually rewards

Three bonus symbols opens the Money Cart, and the round itself is the hold and
respin shape the series has used since 2019. We have written about how that
resolves in our Money Train 4 review, so here is the part that is specific to this
one.

Money Train 2 is where the symbol roster stopped being a list of values and
started being a cast. Collectors gather what is on screen. Payers push their own
value outwards. Snipers choose targets and multiply them. Necromancers revive
symbols that have already done their job.

Reset Plus is the quiet one. It raises the value every symbol that lands after
it begins from, which does nothing dramatic on the spin it appears and changes
the shape of the entire round afterwards.

The reason people kept playing this game for three years is that those effects
stack against each other. A Sniper landing next to a Collector is a different
event from either of them landing alone, and you can see it coming.

Where it sits in the series

The ceiling here is 50,000x your stake. Money Train 3 doubled that number and
the fourth game went further still, which tells you something about the direction
of travel and rather more about how much of the return has been pushed into
outcomes you will almost certainly never see.

So, is the newer one better? Money Train 2 is the least punishing of the three,
and that is the strongest argument for it. The sequels are more inventive and
they are also more expensive to sit through, which is a trade a lot of players
made without noticing.

RTP and volatility

Relax quotes 96.4% for the standard configuration. Operators can and do run
alternative builds, and the bonus buy version carries a different figure again,
so open the game’s information screen at whichever casino you are using and read
the number in front of you rather than the number in a review.

Volatility is high and honestly so. Long dry runs are the normal behaviour of
this game rather than evidence that something has gone wrong with it.

Conclusion

Money Train 2 is the one to play first, and for a lot of people it is the only
one in the series worth going back to. It is legible in a way the sequels are
not, and it does not demand the bankroll they do.

If you are picking a site to play it on, the game is carried almost everywhere,
so choose on the licence and the withdrawal times instead. Our guide to UK online
casinos covers what
actually separates them, and it is a better use of ten minutes than another
hundred spins. There are plenty of other 5-reel slots if the feature does not grab
you.
