Swintt plunges into action once more in Aqua Lord 2
Sought-after software provider’s sea-faring slot sequel invites players to recover the lost riches of Atlantis with enhanced Pearl Respins and four local jackpots
Having made a big splash with its popular Aqua Lord slot back in 2022, innovative software developer, Swintt, is preparing to dive beneath the waves once more in an action-packed sequel that now features new and improved Pearl Respins and even bigger prizes.
Played out across five reels and ten fixed paylines, Aqua Lord 2 picks up where its predecessor left off by once again plunging players into a world of sunken treasures where sticky pearl symbols hold the key to unlocking huge wins of up to 6,000x the bet and two incredibly rewarding features.
This time around, whenever a pearl scatter symbol appears, it will remain locked in place for three spins while also acting as a wild that substitutes for any regular icon. Not only that, but each pearl will also contribute to the red or the blue pot, both of which can start a thrilling new jackpot game.
Activated when a random number of pearls have been collected, the red pot game features Major, Maxi and Mega prizes, while the blue one also adds in the Minor. In both instances, players will be asked to pick from 15 pearls until three instances of any jackpot have been revealed, at which point they’ll collect the corresponding prize value and be returned to the base game to start anew.
On top of this exciting addition, Aqua Lord 2 also sees the return of Swintt’s popular Pearl feature, albeit this time with a brand new multiplier element.
Triggered whenever any six pearl symbols appear in view, players will again be granted three respins to collect as many prize values as possible, with this counter being reset whenever an additional pearl icon appears on the reels.
The bonus will continue until either no further respins are granted or all 15 reel spaces have been filled – at which point the Mega Jackpot will automatically be awarded – only now whenever a column is successfully filled, all pearls present will be subject to a random multiplier of up to 10x!
David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “Swintt is thrilled to once again take players on an exciting underwater adventure in Aqua Lord 2. Building on the success of its Premium predecessor, this sea-faring slot sequel features enhanced Pearl Feature where huge multipliers are now up for grabs, meaning it’s sure to make a splash at all of our online partners.”
