Sands of Eternity 2 Slot Overview
Sands of Eternity 2 is a casino slot from Slotmill and a sequel to, in our opinion, one of the most underrated games out there.
Slotmill flew under our radar for a long time. We had heard of them, of course, but didn’t quite know how good of a slot provider they were. That’s in the past now, though, as we now consider them one of the absolute best in the business with their constant high-quality productions and innovative game designs. The first Sands of Eternity, however, was a game that we discovered, or at least started paying attention to, long after we got our eyes up for Slotmill. We stumbled upon it during a live stream session on Casinodaddy and were immediately intrigued as we realized that it felt like a more volatile and potent version of Temple Tumble, which has always been one of our favorite games and inspired our first slot release, Sloth Tumble. But despite our love for Sands of Eternity, we’ve never seen it being requested or mentioned much, so it’s a bit unclear how successful it was. For that reason, we were surprised to see that it was getting a sequel. Very pleasantly surprised, that is. Let’s dig in!
The crew at Slotmill had this to say about the game:
Sands of Eternity 2 is an enthralling Egyptian-themed avalanche slot featuring 6 reels and 7 rows, with up to 117,649 bet ways. The game starts with a unique 6 x 3 symbol grid arranged in a jigsaw pattern, offering 729 initial bet ways. Winning symbols and adjacent blockers are removed, allowing new symbols to cascade down in an avalanche motion, creating new win opportunities and increasing the number of bet ways.
In the base game, a random Expansion feature can activate, increasing the number of bet ways even further. Landing three bonus symbols awards 8 Free Spins, during which there is a chance to trigger Super Mode, boosting the win multiplier with every win.
Each corner position of the symbol grid holds special features that can significantly enhance win potential. These include “Rays of Ra,” which releases wild symbols, and “Shift of Thoth,” which converts symbols into the same symbol. With the potential to win 15,000 times your bet, Sands of Eternity 2 promises exhilarating gameplay and big rewards.

Sands of Eternity 2 Slot Information
Thematically, everything remains pretty much the exact same. We wish Slotmill had changed the scene a bit, but what they have done is revamp, sharpening the graphics and strengthening the animations. So, despite the lack of newthinking, it still feels drastically upgraded.
Sands of Eternity 2 can be played on all common mobile devices and desktops. A winning combination is created by landing 3 or more matching symbols on consecutive reels, starting from the leftmost reel.
The lower-paying symbols include blue cat, green dog, red crocodile (?), pink bird, blue gem, green gem, red gem, and purple gem. A winning combination of 6 with one of these pays 0.25x-0.6x the bet. The higher-paying symbols consist of Egyptian figures colored blue, green, red, and purple. Six-of-a-kind with these pays 1.5x-3.5x the bet. Wild symbols, Scatter symbols, and various Feature symbols are also available, but more on that in a bit.
