Introduction to Treats of Terror 2
Treats of Terror 2 is a casino slot from Play’n GO featuring another charming cartoonish horror take. This is the sequel to Treats of Terror, this time set in a neon-lit arcade. But don’t worry, the studio continues to provide the same level of visual quality and the mix of horror and humour. Thankfully, Play’n GO has kept the scatter pays mechanic and Collection Feature intact, and added Terry Treats, GO Ultra, and another stage to the Free Spins. We believe the design and graphics are top-tier, but unfortunately, the gameplay doesn’t keep up due to repetitive elements and familiar mechanics. Although we admire the charming vibe, the win potential isn’t strong enough, resulting in a slightly above-average rating. Let’s explore what this sequel offers.
Treats of Terror 2 is a video slot from Play’n GO with 5 reels and 5 rows. Due to the scatter pays mechanic, this game has no regular pay lines; wins are created by landing 6 or more of the same symbol type anywhere on the reels. You can choose between a Min.bet of 0.1 and a Max.bet of 100, with a default RTP of 96.2%, which is considered around industry average. However, operators can choose to use one of the lower ones, such as 94.2%, 91.2%, 87.2%, or 84.2%. You play the game with high volatility and a hit frequency of 33.67%, offering potential wins up to 15,000X the bet.
The game’s design is based on a horror movie theme, and this time, the action takes place inside a neon-lit arcade. The 5x5 game grid is in the middle of the screen, with the Jackpots on its left side. You’ll find Terry on the left side of the screen, grabbing all Coin and Bonus Treats that have not been collected, with a random chance of triggering the Bonus Game. If you want to boost the gaming experience for a cost, activate the GO Ultra button in the right corner. All other buttons, including the Spin and Bet Size, can be found below the reels. You can play Treats of Terror 2 on all mobile devices, desktops, and notepads. You create a winning combination by landing 6 or more of the same symbol types anywhere on the reels, activating the Cascade.
The lower-paying symbols are blue, green, orange, red, and pink M&M’s. Landing 10+ of the same symbol type pays between 1.2X and 2X. The higher-paying symbols are a blue soda, an orange chocolate, and a purple popcorn. Landing 10+ of the same symbol type pays between 7X and 15X.
The game’s Scatter Symbol is a golden ticket with the word “Scatter,” and landing 3 or more of this symbol type will trigger the Bonus Game. The Coin Symbol is a gold coin with values ranging from 1X to 9X, and the Bonus Treats are blue, green, red, and purple gummy bears, carrying potential values up to 1,000X the bet, which can be collected by the Collector Symbol, an old-school hockey mask. Let’s explore the features in the next section.

What features are available in the slot of Treats of Terror 2?
The features of this slot game are Collection Feature, Terry Treats, Free Spins, and GO Ultra.
Collection Feature
This feature can be triggered by landing a Coin Symbol or Bonus Treat simultaneously as a Collector Symbol. The Collector Symbol collects all Coin Symbols and Bonus Treats in view, awarding their total value. If several Collector Symbols appear at the same time, all values in view are collected by each Collector Symbol.
The Coin Symbol can land with values of 1X, 1.5X, 2X, 2.5X, 3X, 4X, 5X, 6X, 7X, 8X, or 9X the bet. The Bonus Treats are the Mini, Minor, Major, Mega, and Grand Prize, which award 10X, 25X, 100X, 250X, or 1,000X the bet, respectively.
Terry Treats
All Coin Symbols and Bonus Treats that land in view but aren’t collected get grabbed by Terry on the left side of the reels during the Base Game. When randomly triggered, Terry rewards 5 random Cash Prizes: 1X, 1.5X, 2X, 2.5X, 3X, 4X, 5X, 6X, 7X, 8X, or 9X the bet or one of the Bonus Treats awarding 10X, 25X, 100X, 250X, or 1,000X the bet, respectively.
The 5 collected prizes are added and awarded.
Free Spins
This feature can be triggered by landing 3 or more Scatter Symbols during the Base Game, awarding 8 Free Spins. During the feature, a Progressive Trail is positioned on the right side of the reels, collecting Scatter Symbols. Every 5th collected Scatter Symbol upgrades the trail to the next stage. The Stages are:
Stage 1 (Starting stage) = +8 additional Free Spins and a 2X Win Multiplier, applied to all wins during the Free Spins.
Stage 2 = +5 Free Spins and 3X Win Multiplier.
Stage 3 = +7 Free Spins and 5X Win Multiplier.
Stage 4 = +8 Free Spins and 10X Win Multiplier.
During the feature, the Collection Feature is activated, collecting Coin Symbols and Bonus Treats.
GO Ultra
Activate the GO Ultra for an extra cost of 50% of the current bet, and get the following perks: Bonus Treats that land are guaranteed to upgrade by the next value, and all Bonus Treat values are doubled. The initial Free Spins reward is 13 Free Spins instead of 8. When you trigger Free Spins, the initial Win Multiplier is 3X instead of 2X.
Final Thoughts on Treats of Terror 2
This game provides another chance to meet your favourite movie snacks in an unusual setting, to say the least. Here, they are getting chainsawed and hunted by Jason and Terry, collecting their values ranging from 1X to 1,000x the bet. Play’n GO has kept the charming vibe and top-tier design from its predecessor, but moved from the cinema into an arcade, adding a nostalgic touch to the series.
So what makes this game stand out from its predecessor? The studio has kept the scatter pays mechanic and Collection Feature intact, offering the same cash values. However, they have added the randomly triggered Terry Treats feature during the Base Game, which works similarly to a “Pick Me Bonus,” awarding the total value of 5 collected Cash Prizes. Although the feature has great animation, just like the rest of the gaming experience, it feels like a complement to the Collection Feature and adds little value on its own. In terms of Free Spins, Play’n GO boosts the win potential by adding another stage to the Progressive Trail with a potential Win Multiplier of 10X. We appreciate a higher multiplier value, but in reality, it’s very similar to the previous Treats of Horror because of the same gameplay mechanics.
In conclusion, Play’n Go has kept the same charming vibe and wonderful design as last time, making fans of its predecessor feel right at home. This game stays true to the series’ core, offering top-tier animation that advances the storyline. In terms of gameplay, we expected more than just minor changes to the feature list, which doesn’t match the ambition level of the game design. If you want more from Play’n GO, we recommend Colt Lightning Inferno.
Treats of Terror 2 is a slot that evolves the storyline with polished design and ambitious animation, but due to familiar mechanics, it doesn’t meet our expectations.
