What is it about?
In this second part of Sheriff of Nottingham, we see a slightly grimmer version of the village. To the left and right are ordinary medieval buildings, but things get grimer in the middle of the screen. Behind the transparent playing field of Sheriff of Nottingham 2, a gallows is set up. And in the bonus round, we even go to a place that looks like a dungeon. Fortunately, the cartoon character is still retained.
The design of Sheriff of Nottingham 2 has received a nice upgrade compared to the first variant.

Wild Symbols
The sheriff himself has taken on the role of wild symbol. There are regular wild symbols of 1 by 1 size, but there are also stacked wild symbols. Both types can substitute for any regular symbol to help complete winning combinations.

Pick a scroll
There is a random chance during each spin in Sheriff of Nottingham 2 that the Pick a Scroll feature activates. In that case, you’ll be shown 3 scrolls. After you pick 1 of these, you will be assigned 1 of the following modifiers:
- Bonus: activates the Sheriff Respins feature.
- Sheriff Wilds: randomly places 4 to 10 wild symbols on the playing field.
- Win Spin: guarantees a win on your next spin.
- Mystery Symbols: places a number of Mystery symbols on the playing field, which then all turn into the same regular symbol.
- Wanted Spin: The sheriff lands on the playing field, collects all the values of the money symbols and pays them out.
- Stacked Wilds: adds stacked wild symbols to the reels with x1 multipliers. If the stacked wild symbols land only partially on the playing field, they move up a bit at a time until they are completely in view. Each time they move up, you get +1 to the win multiplier.
Sheriff respins
If you land 3 money symbols on the playing field, you get access to the Sheriff Respins feature. In this, you get 3 respins on a playfield where only Merry Men symbols, money symbols and blanks land. Each time you land a money symbol or a Merry Men symbol, it will stick to the playfield and your number of respins will be reset to 3. In addition, you get a certain modifier for each Merry Men symbol.
- Will Scarlet: gives 1x your bet and opens an additional reel on the right side.
- Friar Tuck: gives 1x your bet and opens an extra reel on the left.
- Little John: gives 1x your bet and doubles all cash values in view. He also gives a boost to Robin Hood.
- Maid Marian: gives 1x your bet and an extra life. This means you get an extra respin once you reach 0.
- Robin Hood: increases the value of each symbol by x1 or x2. This happens every respin until the end of the bonus round.
When the sheriff symbol lands in the bonus round, it collects the value of all symbols. The symbols then fall off the playfield to make room for new symbols. In addition, the sheriff locks all Merry Men symbols from the playfield into a cell. However, the Robin Hood modification continues. When you have locked up all the Merry Men, you will get a x5 multiplier for the full win of the bonus round.
Final Verdict
Sheriff of Nottingham 2 has taken the beautiful design and pleasant playing theme from its predecessor.
There are also a few differences between the original and the second part of Sheriff of Nottingham. For example, the free spins round has been removed and some new things have been added to the respins feature. This makes this second part a bit more exciting to play than part 1. If you like slots with old stories as a theme, then you should definitely give Sheriff of Nottingham 2 a try.
All in all, we are pretty excited about this second Robin Hood slot from iSoftBet.
