When I first entered the basement of this mental institution, I immediately wanted to escape. Walls are covered in blood stains and messages, written by former female patients. Alas, no one came to help them escape.
Rumour has it that the doctors and the scientists conducted experiments on women similar to those made by the infamous Nazi doctor, Josef Mengele. Experiments were conducted on both living and dead patients, even infants.
Everything that was done to these miserable women was considered psychotherapy. However, the evidence states otherwise. Based on the discovered records, 5 girls were locked in the basement and suffered terrible injuries and torture.
Investigators revealed several skeletons, one of which is an infant skeleton. Sadly, even the babies were not safe in the asylum. You will also come across tombs that represent dead patient symbols. A skull is used as a regular Wild, while a patient tied to a bed is the xNudge Wild.
Heads and brains in jars are used as Scatters, while toilets filled with blood trigger the xHole feature.
If you disregard the disturbing images, the rules of the game are far from complicated. Mental 2 pokie is played on 5 reels, using a 3-2-3-2 reel formation. You will benefit from 108+ winning ways. The slot pays left to right, beginning from the far-left reel.
You need at least 3 matching icons on a payline to win a payout. Betting starts at $0.20. The most you can bet is $100 per spin. Mental 2 pokie is of high volatility and offers a 99,999x max payout. Mental 2 RTP is 96.06%.
Even if you do not plan on conducting experiments on these miserable women, there is still plenty to do in the Mental 2 pokie machine. The Nolimit City title is packed with additional features. First, you will come across fire frames and fire reels.
Dead patients will bring win multipliers. Enhancer cells include Wilds, xSplit, xNudge Wilds, patient symbols, and xWays. There are some completely new features, such as xHole and xMental. The Mental Transform feature transforms Disembodied Scatters into other icons. Cognitive Scatters and Disembodied Scatters trigger 3 types of free spins.
Fire frames are present in the original Mental pokie, while fire reels are something new. With fire frames, 1-13 cells on the reels can turn into fire frames. Every icon that appears within a fire frame is split into 2 parts.
Between 1 and 5 reels can be turned into fire reels. Every symbol that lands on a fire reel will be split into 3 parts. Both fire frames and fire reels helped me land my biggest base game win of 25x.
When 2 or more dead patient icons appear on the reels, the Dead Patients feature is triggered. The feature reveals one of the patient icons that carries a random 5x-9,999x multiplier. The multiplier reflects the symbol value on that reel. My biggest multiplier was 15x.
You can find enhancer cells at the bottom of the 3 central reels. Depending on the number of fire frames that appear on a current spin, you can get enhancer cells on up to 3 reels. With 4 fire frames, you activate enhancer cells on Reel 2.
When 6 fire frames appear, you activate enhancer cells on reels 2 and 4. If 8 fire frames land on the reels, you will get enhancer cells on all 3 central reels. Enhancer cells bring different symbols. Regular Wilds will substitute for all regular symbols.
The xSplit symbol will split 1 icon on every other reel, doubling the number of these symbols, and will also turn into 2 Wilds. The xNudge Wild will nudge until it covers an entire reel. With every nudge, the Wild improves its win multiplier. Enhancer cells can also bring you 1 of 5 patient symbols.
Finally, the xWays feature reveals 3 matching icons and expands the reel. Enhancer Cells can prove extremely helpful.
When an xHole symbol lands on a fire frame or a fire reel is located on the central position of the central reel, you trigger the xHole feature. The xHole draws all Wilds and regular symbols, and then scatters them to random positions, boosting their values by 2x-8x. If the xHole gets the xNudge Wild, it will only improve its multiplier. The xHole feature helped me win around 40x.
If you land an xMental icon within a fire frame or a fire reel, you trigger the xMental feature. You get an extra spin with several features. All cells get fire frames. Enhancer cells reveal xWays, xNudge Wilds, or xSplit. You also get the possibility to trigger the xHole feature.
When you land the Disembodied Scatter on reels 2 or 4, you trigger the Mental Transform feature. The Disembodied Scatter turns into either xWays, xSplit, dead patient, Wild or any of the patient symbols. In most cases, the Disembodied Scatter turned into a patient symbol when I tested the game.
Land 3 Cognitive Scatters, or Brain Scatters, to trigger the Bloodletting Spins feature. You get 8 free spins with fire frames and fire reels remaining sticky until the end of the feature. I triggered the feature twice. My biggest win was 55x.
With 3 Cognitive Scatters and 1 Disembodied Scatter, you trigger the Surgery Spins feature. Here, you get 9 free spins. Apart from sticky fire frames and fire reels, the Disembodied Scatter turns into a sticky symbol. It remains on the reels and triggers the Mental Transform feature on every free spin.
The highest multiplier from every dead patient is collected with its count, which signifies the number of particular patient symbols you revealed. When you collect the count, the dead multiplier is transferred to its respective symbol based on that count. Each time you transfer a dead multiplier to a patient symbol, the count decreases by 1.
To trigger 10 Experimental Spins, you will need 3 Cognitive Scatters and 2 Disembodied Scatters. Every Scatter that lands in a fire frame will get you 1 extra free spin. If you land a Scatter in the fire reel, you get 2 additional free spins.
Here, you get the same extras as in the Bloodletting Spins feature and the Surgery Spins feature. The only difference is that the Dead Multiplier count does not decrement after its transfer to a patient symbol.
Nolimit City offers several boosters that you may use while playing the Mental 2 slot. For 1.4x the bet, you can get a guaranteed Cognitive Scatter on the 1st reel. To get fire frames on all reels, you need to pay 6x the bet per spin. You will need 99x the bet to trigger the xHole feature. If you want to activate xMental, you need 3,200x the bet.
Each of the free spins features can be bought for a certain price. Bloodletting Spins cost 100x. Buy Surgery Spins for 250x. Experimental Spins will take 1,800x the bet. You can play a risk game and get 1 of the possible 3 free spins features for 330x. The God mode costs 6,666x, and here you can go for the max payout of 99,999x.
When I compare the famous original and the sequel, I can find plenty of similarities and more than enough differences. This will make every player out there searching for the Nolimit City product.
Just like its famous predecessor, Mental 2 is not reserved for players who are afraid of blood and violence.
The 2025 release is reserved for action junkies that enjoy pokies with tons of extras. So, I can say that this is a perfect pokie machine for me.
I can really say that this is one of the best pokies I have played in 2025. That’s why I rate Mental 2 slot 8.8.
