Blood Suckers 2 Free Demo: NetEnt's 96.94% RTP and the Low Ceiling That Pays for It

Blood Suckers 2 is NetEnt’s 2017 vampire sequel and the clearest picture in our catalogue of what a genuinely high-RTP slot looks like: a 5x3, 25-line grid whose own studio page prints a 96.94% return and a 41% hit frequency - and a ceiling of about 1,200x that is the honest price for those numbers. Most slots we cover make the opposite deal: a default RTP in the mid-96s or lower, volatility cranked up, and a five-figure cap like the reported 15,000x on Ankh of Anubis as the headline. This game sells the other end of that trade, and it does not hide it. The demo below is the free way to feel what nearly-every-other-spin-connects actually plays like.

How the game works

The base game is deliberately classical: 5 reels, 3 rows, 25 lines paying left to right, all straight from NetEnt’s own page. You play alongside Amilia, a vampire hunting her family’s stolen treasure through a gothic castle, and she is not decoration - two of the game’s features fire from her crossbow. Wilds land anywhere in the main game and free spins and substitute for everything except Scatter and Bonus symbols.

The number that defines the feel is the 41% hit frequency NetEnt publishes. For scale, NetEnt prints 23% for Starburst, itself a famously gentle game. Blood Suckers 2 connects on roughly two spins in five, which is why databases mostly grade it low volatility (a few say medium): constant small returns, shallow swings, and nothing in the math built for a giant single hit.

Blood Rose Free Spins, Hidden Treasure, and the crossbow shots

The feature set comes straight off NetEnt’s page:

• Blood Rose Free Spins: 3 or more Scatters award 10 free spins with all bet line and Scatter wins multiplied by x3, and 3 or more Scatters during the round add 10 more, automatically stacked onto the current session. This is where the game’s ceiling lives.
• Scatter Shot: a random main-game feature that activates when exactly 2 Scatters land - Amilia can shoot a third Scatter onto the reels to complete the free spins trigger, and medium-win symbols on screen pay instant coin wins the page lists at 10x to 100x the bet level (bet level, note, not total bet).
• Bonus Shot: the second random feature adds an overlay Bonus symbol to reel 1, 2 or 3, raising the odds of triggering the bonus game.
• Hidden Treasure Bonus Game: NetEnt’s page names it as the Bonus-symbol feature but does not spell out the rules; reviews describe a pick-and-collect treasure hunt where you gather coin wins until the round ends. Treat the details as reported and let the demo show you the rest.

It is a dense feature list for a low-volatility game, and that is the design: the crossbow features exist to make triggers more frequent, not payouts bigger.

RTP honesty check

We run this section on every slot page, and usually it deflates a database number. Here it mostly cuts the other way. The 96.94% figure is not folklore - it is printed on NetEnt’s own game page, together with the hit frequency and the max win, which makes it one of the best-sourced high RTPs we list. The franchise context is real too, and also primary: NetEnt’s own page for the 2009 original publishes 98.00% with a 900x cap, a figure almost nothing mainstream still matches. The sequel gives up about a point of return for a slightly higher ceiling (1,200x on NetEnt’s page against the original’s 900x) and a far richer feature set.

Two honest caveats before you treat 96.94% as guaranteed. First, NetEnt’s page lists a single figure and no alternatives, but at least one major database flags multiple RTP ranges for this title, and operator-selectable builds are standard practice across the industry - so a casino may be running less than the headline. The twist is that even a reduced build of this game could still beat many other slots’ defaults, which is exactly why the comparison is worth making. Second, the database max win of 1,298x does not appear on the provider’s page, so we headline 1,200x and flag the gap. The rule stays the same either way: check the in-game info panel at the casino you actually play at - our RTP guide shows where to look and what a shaved build costs you.

The bottom line

Blood Suckers 2 is the slot to play when you want the math on your side and you can live without a jackpot story: one of the highest provider-published RTPs of any modern game, a hit on roughly two spins in five, and a ceiling around 1,200x that says the quiet part out loud. If that ceiling feels like a dealbreaker, NetEnt built the opposite machine in the same catalogue - Dead or Alive 2 is the brutal high-volatility flip of this exact coin. Learn the crossbow features in the demo first, and if you play for money, confirm on the spot that the build in front of you is actually the 96.94% one.
