Blood & Shadow 2 Slot Review
We all know NoLimit City and what this studio is truly capable of, from dark humour to equally dark and atmospheric slots. Just like Blood & Shadow 2, the successor to its predecessor and the well known Blood & Shadow. The occult theme takes centre stage once again, this time with even more depth, judging by the modern visuals and a new eerie setting - a shadowy church. The game revolves around the Ritual Bar, which rewards players with bonuses such as sticky Wilds and free spins, but first things first.
Info
The main game grid consists of 5 reels and 4 rows, offering 1,024 ways to win. The layout can expand to 5x5, increasing the number of ways to win up to 3,125. The Maximum RTP at 96.09%, while the Volatility soars to Extreme. The betting range is standard for the provider, spanning from €0.2 to €100, but activating the xBet feature at x2.5 your bet, increases the chance of triggering certain features.

Bonus Feature
As previously mentioned, the Ritual Bar returns and includes five progression levels. The Bar resets for each level up, but any extra points collected are carried over. The fifth row contains locked Wilds, with each unlocked as you progress through the levels:
- Level 1 - requires 20 points.
- Level 2 - requires 30 points.
- Level 3 - requires 40 points.
- Level 4 - requires 60 points.
- Level 5 - requires 80 points.
The Ritual Bar fills up when Scatter symbols land or winning combinations with medium or high-paying symbols are formed. Upon leveling up:
- The lowest-paying symbols are removed.
- Medium-paying symbols transform into high-paying symbols.
Reaching a new level grants Candle Spins:
- Levels 1 to 4 - award 2 free spins per level.
- Level 5 (Reign of Terror Spins) - awards 6 free spins.
During Candle Spins and Reign of Terror Spins, Wilds become sticky at the bottom of the reels.
There are two types of xSplit symbols:
- The Dagger xSplit - splits its row.
- The Guillotine xSplit - splits all symbols on its reel.
Both xSplit types appear with an x2 multiplier and turn into Wilds after splitting. Symbols split by xSplit also gain the respective multiplier, with a maximum symbol size of x32.
Halifax Gibbet Spins are available for purchase and grant 6 Candle Spins. 3 low- and medium-paying symbols are replaced with high-paying symbols.
Reign of Terror Spins begins with 6 free spins. The Ritual Bar is removed. The reel expands to a 5x5 grid, landing only high-paying symbols. Landing a Scatter awards 1 extra free spin. Purchasing this feature grants 10 free spins.
Verdict
On one hand, we have a solid predecessor that now boasts an increased maximum win of x16,161 your stake and exciting new features like reel expansion and the fresh splitting symbols mechanic. All of this is certainly a reason to celebrate, but as a whole, it feels more like an update than a true sequel. That said, if you enjoyed the first installment, you should definitely give this one a try and you won't regret it.
If this slot didn't surprise you with its horror aesthetics, then we recommend trying Slot Demo NoLimit City The Crypt.
