Colossal symbols and expanding reels create a Megaways-style slot adventure in this long-awaited follow-up video slot from NetEnt. Gonzo’s Quest 2: Return to El Dorado sees the Hispanic adventurer head back to the stone reels for high variance action on an expanding six-reel game arena with up to 262,144 ways to win.
Log in to your account and hit the game tile to start playing and be transported to the sundrenched ruins. The game aesthetic is like the original, with symbols carved into sandstone blocks, including intricate masks and gargoyle faces.
Betting starts at 30p per spin, which can be altered using the plus and minus buttons in the control panel. When you’re ready to play, hit the green spin button to start your game.
Pay symbols include animals, masks, and gargoyle faces carved into stone blocks, offering payouts of 0.03-0.90x for hitting payline wins. These regular pay symbols appear on the reels alongside two different wild symbols and a scatter symbol.
The regular wild is a gold-and-silver tile with WILD written in gold, and the calamity wild is the same tile with a red ruby in the centre. The scatter is a golden tile with a gargoyle face in the middle.
Betting in this high-energy game goes up in increments of 30p, so you cannot play with a £1.00 wager. Thus, the paytable below shows the payouts awarded for hitting payline wins with a 90p per spin bet:
| Symbol | Match 3 | Match 4 | Match 5 | Match 6 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Red Bull | 0.03 | 0.06 | 0.09 | 0.15 |

Avalanches occur on every winning spin. All symbols involved in the win disappear from the reels, leaving space for an avalanche of new symbols from above. If new wins are created with the new symbols, they will also be removed, and the avalanche repeats.
In the base game, each avalanche increases the global multiplier by +1. The multiplier starts at x1 and can reach up to x5. When there are no more avalanches and the total win has been evaluated, the multiplier is reset back to x1.
Each spin starts with a 6-reel, 4-row play area. A winning combination activates the Expanding Reels feature, where each avalanche adds an additional row to the top of the play area, up to four in total.
In the base game, the Expanding Reels feature ends when there are no more avalanches, and the grid resets to its initial configuration for the next spin.
Two types of wild symbols can appear anywhere on the reels: regular wild and calamity wild. Wild symbols substitute for all symbols except for scatters and calamity wilds to help you complete paylines and score payouts.
The Random Wilds feature is activated when a calamity wild is part of a winning combination. Before the grid expands, the calamity wild randomly places between three and six regular wilds on the reels.
Each wild placed during the Random Wilds feature either fills an empty position or is placed on top of another symbol. Wild symbols cannot be placed on top of a scatter, wild, or calamity wild symbol that has not activated the feature.
Scatters and high-win symbols can appear as 2×2, 3×3, or 4×4 colossal symbols, counting as two, three, and four scatters, respectively.
During the Random Wilds feature, colossal high-win symbols on the reels can be transformed into colossal wilds. Up to two colossal symbols can be transformed into colossal wilds per spin.
When wins are evaluated, high-win colossal symbols and colossal wilds are counted as follows:
The bonus is activated by three or more scatters appearing in the base game. Each avalanche increases the global multiplier by +2. Once all avalanches have occurred, the multiplier is reset for the next spin.
If three or more scatters appear on the reels in succession from the leftmost reel, without gaps, during the bonus, an equal number of additional free spins is awarded.
The super free spins bonus is activated when at least one of the scatter symbols triggering the bonus is a colossal scatter. The starting multiplier depends on the size of the colossal scatter that awards the bonus, as follows.
Colossal Scatter | Starting Multiplier | Increase By |
2x2 | X2 | 2 |
3x3 | X3 | 3 |
4x4 | X5 | 5 |
