Slot Glossary
36 terms covering The Crypt 2's xWays vertical expansion, xNudge multiplier stacking, Eye Collector global multiplier, Entombed Spins grid growth (6×4 to 6×7), and the path to 31,248x.
Autoplay
Spin The Crypt 2 automatically for a set count. Stop conditions: stop on Entombed Spins trigger, stop on Eye Collector landing, stop on grid expansion to 6x6+. Useful for grinding the rare Nolimit feature triggers without watching every spin.
Base Game
Regular play before Entombed Spins activates. The Crypt 2 runs on a 6×4 grid with up to 4,096 ways to win. Extreme (10/10) volatility (10/10) means ~80% dead spins; the value sits in xNudge multiplier accumulation and Eye Collector progress.
Bonus Buy
The Crypt 2 packs in plenty of options: Bonus Booster at 2x (triple trigger chance), various feature boosts from 20x to 199x, and direct bonus buys at 80x (6 spins), 200x (8 spins), or 500x (10 spins). Lucky Draw at 210x randomly picks 6, 8, or 10 spins. UK and Sweden block bonus buys.
Cascading Reels
The Crypt 2's core engine. After every winning spin, matched symbols clear and remaining symbols cascade downward; new symbols drop in. Cascades continue until the screen goes quiet. Combined with xWays expansion, cascade chains can blow ways-to-win past 100,000+ on a single spin.
Cluster Pays
The Crypt 2 doesn't use cluster pays. Wins resolve through ways-to-win mechanics — 4,096 ways at base 6×4 grid, expanding up to 531,441 ways at 6×7 during Entombed Spins.
Dead Legend Symbol
The Crypt 2's special premium symbol. Drops 1-2 eyes that the Eye Collector harvests when present. During Entombed Spins, Dead Legend symbols upgrade through progressive levels — each upgrade unlocks a new row on the grid AND grants +2 free spins per upgrade.
Dead Spin
A spin returning nothing. The Crypt 2's extreme (10/10) volatility (10/10) produces dead spins around 80% of the time. Long droughts of 30+ consecutive dead spins are normal at this volatility classification.
Entombed Spins
The Crypt 2's main bonus tier. Triggered by 3+ scatters. Regular scatters give +2 spins each, Red Moon scatters give +3 each. Dead Legend symbols upgrade through levels during the bonus, unlocking new rows on the grid (6×4 to 6×7) and granting extra spins per upgrade. Accumulated multipliers persist between spins.
Eye Collector
The Crypt 2's headline bonus mechanic. Harvests eyes from Dead Legend symbols — each Dead Legend gives 1-2 eyes. Every 5 eyes collected adds +1 to your win multiplier. The accumulated multiplier persists for the rest of the bonus round. Spider symbols turbocharge the Eye Collection process.
Feature Trigger Rate
How often Entombed Spins activates. The Crypt 2's scatter trigger sits at ~1 in 220 base spins. With Bonus Booster (2x bet, triple trigger chance), the rate compresses to ~1 in 75. Distribution skews toward 6-spin starts (~70%) over 8-spin (~22%) and 10-spin starts (~8%).
Free Spins
The Crypt 2's Entombed Spins is the free spins equivalent. Spin counts: 6, 8, or 10 depending on scatter count. Inside the bonus, Dead Legend upgrades grant +2 spins each. Direct buy options pre-set the spin count. The headline mechanic is grid expansion (6×4 to 6×7) and persistent xNudge multipliers.
Grid Expansion
The Crypt 2's Entombed Spins signature. The grid starts at 6×4 (24 cells) and can expand to 6×7 (42 cells) through Dead Legend upgrades. Each row added increases ways-to-win — from 4,096 at 6×4 to 531,441 at 6×7. Grid expansion persists for the entire bonus round.
Hit Frequency
The Crypt 2's hit rate sits at ~20% — about 1 in 5 spins lands a winning combination. Lower than mainstream slots because the math packs return into Entombed Spins. xWays expansions boost effective hit rate by multiplying ways-to-win on landing.
Lucky Draw
The Crypt 2's randomized buy option. 210x stake awards 6, 8, or 10 spins via random selection. Useful for players who want bonus access at a discount versus the 500x direct 10-spin buy, accepting the chance of landing a 6-spin starter.
Max Win
The Crypt 2 caps at 31,248x. Probability of hitting the cap: roughly 1 in 22.8 million spins. Requires the full 6×7 grid active with stacked xNudge multipliers and a loaded Eye Collector all firing together during Entombed Spins.
Max Win Cap
Once The Crypt 2 hits 31,248x, the round ends immediately. The 31,248x cap is among the highest in Nolimit City's catalog — exceeded only by Riot Stock 2099 (33,333x). Reflects the sequel's status as a flagship release.
Megaways
A Big Time Gaming licensed format with up to 117,649 ways to win. The Crypt 2 doesn't use Megaways but its 6×7 grid (up to 531,441 ways) exceeds Megaways line counts. The mechanic is xWays-driven vertical reel expansion rather than dynamic ways-format.
Multiplier
A value applied to wins. The Crypt 2 uses xNudge multipliers (per-wild, +1 per nudge position) and the Eye Collector global multiplier (+1 per 5 eyes collected). Both stack across cascades. Two xNudge wilds in the same cascade multiply against each other rather than adding.
Paylines
The Crypt 2 doesn't use fixed paylines. Wins resolve through 4,096 Ways (up to 531,441). The ways-format scales with grid expansion during Entombed Spins.
Paytable
The Crypt 2's reference chart shows payouts by symbol and ways count. Premium gothic-themed symbols (undead characters, crypt elements) pay the highest. Mid-tier dark imagery fills the middle. Card royals form the bottom. Dead Legend symbols pay premium values AND feed the Eye Collector during Entombed Spins.
Red Moon Scatter
The Crypt 2's premium scatter variant. Awards +3 spins to the Entombed Spins starter (versus +2 for regular scatters). Lands less frequently than regular scatters but provides a meaningful trigger boost when it does. Mixed scatter triggers can produce 9-12 spin starters with the right combination.
RNG (Random Number Generator)
The cryptographic algorithm determining every spin outcome. Nolimit City uses certified RNGs in The Crypt 2 — independently audited for fairness. Each spin is independent of the last; previous xNudge values or Eye Collector counts have zero influence on future spin outcomes.
RTP (Return to Player)
The Crypt 2 returns 96.10% (default), broken down to 61.72% from the base game and 34.37% from the bonus. Nolimit also offers operator-configurable versions at 94.08% and 92.01%, so check the game info panel at your casino to verify.
Scatter
The Crypt 2's special trigger symbol. Three or more scatters anywhere on the 6×4 grid award Entombed Spins. Two scatter types: regular (+2 spins each) and Red Moon (+3 spins each). Different scatter combinations produce different starting spin counts.
Session Variance
The Crypt 2's session-to-session result spread. With 96.10% RTP and 10/10 volatility, a 200-spin session can return 10% to 700% of wagered. Without an Entombed Spins trigger, sessions tend to land 25-60% of theoretical RTP. With Entombed + grid expansion + Eye Collector, sessions can finish 500%+.
Spider Symbol
The Crypt 2's Eye Collection accelerator. Generates 4-12 eyes instantly when an Eye Collector is present on the grid. Without an active Eye Collector, the Spider symbol does nothing. Combined effect with the Eye Collector can push the global multiplier from 1x to 4x+ in a single spin.
Sticky Wild
A Wild that stays in place across multiple spins. The Crypt 2's xNudge Wilds are NOT sticky in base play. During Entombed Spins, accumulated multipliers persist between spins (which is the closest equivalent to sticky behaviour) — the wild positions themselves don't lock, but multiplier values carry across the round.
Volatility (Variance)
The Crypt 2 is rated Extreme (10/10) (10/10) — the highest classification Nolimit assigns to any slot in their catalog. The 20% hit rate produces extended dry spells balanced by Entombed Spins explosive payouts. Long droughts are statistically normal at this volatility tier.
Ways to Win
The Crypt 2 uses ways-to-win mechanics. 4,096 ways at the base 6×4 grid. Up to 531,441 ways at the 6×7 expanded grid during Entombed Spins. xWays expansions multiply ways-to-win on landing — a single spin with multiple xWays can push ways-counts past 100,000+.
Wild
The Crypt 2's xNudge Wilds substitute for any regular paying symbol except scatters. Each xNudge Wild shifts down the reel on landing, adding +1 to its multiplier per position nudged. Multiple xNudge Wilds in the same cascade stack multiplicatively.
Win Distribution
Extreme (10/10)-volatility slots like The Crypt 2 are extremely top-heavy. Entombed Spins contributes ~55% of total RTP despite triggering rarely. Eye Collector accumulated multipliers ~15%. Base-game xNudge Wilds ~12%. xWays-assisted base wins ~10%. Standard ways-format wins ~8%.
xNudge Wild
The Crypt 2's headline wild mechanic. Wild symbols shift downward on the reel on landing, adding +1 to the multiplier for each position nudged. Land multiple xNudge Wilds in the same cascade and their multipliers multiply against each other rather than adding — that's where the bigger swings start.
xWays Mystery Symbol
The Crypt 2's vertical reel expansion mechanic. Mystery symbols reveal 2-3 identical symbols on landing and expand the reel vertically — up to 9 positions per reel. When multiple xWays land, they always show the same symbol, dramatically increasing ways to win across the grid.
Bonus Buy Restrictions
Some countries ban purchasing bonus rounds. UK prohibits since October 2021. Sweden caps bet sizes during buys. The Crypt 2's tiered buys (80x/200x/500x plus Lucky Draw 210x) follow these restrictions.
Nolimit City Catalog Position
The Crypt 2 (March 2026) sits in Nolimit City's gothic-undead expansion. The sequel to the original Crypt with extended mechanics — volatility raised to 10/10, max win pushed to 31,248x, grid expansion added. Common thread with sister Nolimit titles: signature mechanic stacks (xWays + xNudge), tiered bonus buys, extreme volatility positioning.
6×4 Grid Expanding to 6×7
The Crypt 2's grid format. Base: 6 reels × 4 rows = 24 cells. Maximum during Entombed Spins: 6 reels × 7 rows = 42 cells. The expansion is what pushes ways-to-win from 4,096 to 531,441 — each unlocked row dramatically increases ways count.
