The game uses a grid of 5 reels and 3 rows that allows for up to 243 ways to win. You have to land matching symbols on adjacent reels starting from the leftmost to the right to score payouts. You can play with wagers from 0.20 to 40 credits per spin. The volatility is high and the RTP is 92% with 4.5% of the Jackpot added to increase it and it usually becomes 96.5%.
Unlike the first Book of Tattoo slot that has a perceivable rock n’ roll vibe, this one is more disco and funky. The first slot has an extra reel that players can activate and a gamble feature. Both games are part of Fugaso’s jackpot network. In the sequel, you will benefit from a Mystery symbol, Mystery Spins and Mystery Respins. There are also Book of Tattoo Free Spins. Both games have 3 progressive jackpots: Mini, Midi and Maxi.
Book of Tattoo 2 is set on a background of brown canvas with detailed drawings. You can see a bird, a lion, an armour and a man with wings. These come alive with colours during the free spins. The reels have a dark brown colour and on them can land the 4 card suits. The latter are made to represent shiny gemstones. There are picture symbols that include an owl, a tiger, a fierce shark and a red dragon.
You can also see a detailed golden and orange icon of the mystery symbol and a scary skull with a hat. The bonus scatter is the game logo on an ancient-looking book. The images of all symbols are detailed, authentic and look superbly. Fugaso has done exceptional work with the graphics and music too. It is a funky, disco and groovy tune that makes you want to dance.
The symbols include 5 low-paying ones, 5 premiums, a bonus scatter and a mystery symbol. The gemstone yellow diamonds, green spades, red hearts and blue clubs pay the same. This is from 0.25 to 0.75 times your stake for 3 to 5 symbols of a kind. The golden feather pays a bit more – from 0.25x to 1x stake.
The high-value symbols include a scary shark – from 0.50x to 1.50x stake, a red dragon – from 0.50x to 2x stake. The owl returns from 0.75x to a 3x stake. The tiger pays 1, 2 and 4 times your stake for 3, 4 and 5 symbols in a combination. The skull with the hat is the top player – land 3, 4 or 5 of it to win 1.25, 2.50 or 5 times your stake, respectively.
An ornamented golden symbol with elaborate shape is the Mystery Symbol. Once it lands, it spins to reveal any other symbol. The only on it can’t reveal is the bonus scatter. Then, you get paid for all created winning combinations done with the help of the matching symbols.
The mystery symbols that appear on reels 1, 2 and 3 in the base game trigger Mystery Respins. During this feature, all landed mystery symbols lock in place and you get one free re-spin. If you have the luck to hit one or more mystery symbols, they also lock in position and trigger another re-spin. This process can repeat many times. During this feature, there aren’t any bonus scatters that can land.
In the base game, on any spin, there is a chance to trigger a Mystery Spin. During such spin, there are many more Mystery symbols on the reels than usual. Thus, you have higher chances of activating the re-spin feature.
The book of tattoo symbol is the scatter and you can see it appearing on reels 2, 3 and 4 in the base game only. Landing 3 or more of it in one spin gives you 10 Book of Tattoo Free Spins. While they play, all mystery symbols that land will lock in place for the duration of the free spins. At the end of each spin, these symbols spin and reveal one random symbol which can be any except the scatter. Every spin of the mystery symbols reveals a different one. This adds more thrill and ensures decent wins.
Whenever you fill a whole reel with mystery symbols you win 2 extra free spins. The more reels you fill with mystery symbols the more free rounds you will add with. Having 5 reels, a maximum of 10 extra spins are possible. You cannot re-trigger the feature.
Book of Tattoo slot, like all Fugaso jackpot series, has 3 progressive jackpots. These are Mini, Midi and Maxi. Each player’s bets contribute for their increase the following way:
You can see the current amount of each jackpot displayed under the reels.
The first Book of Tattoo and its sequel are both high volatility slots. They offer 3 progressive jackpots. Even if you aren’t into tattoos, you are very likely to be pleased with the sequel. It is a very universal game that can suit the preferences of every gambler. You can try your luck on any of the progressive jackpots. Another option is to just have fun with the mystery symbols, free re-spins and other features in the game.
