Here a retrigger is any spin added after the opening award: two or more Scatters during the feature add three to eleven spins, and every filled orb meter adds one. Sixty-four of the 65 natural features gained at least one spin this way, and the 132 filled meters alone added 132 spins.

How it plays
8 rules screens from the game
Pink Elephants 2 – Reborn deals six reels, four symbols high, and pays 4,096 ways: a symbol has to appear on consecutive reels from the first one, with just the top win per way paid. The Pink Elephant already pays as a pair, 1x the bet per way, then 2.4x, 4.5x, 6.5x and 10x for three to six. The four goats sit between 1x and 7x for three to six in a row, the Ace and King between 0.4x and 4x, the Queen, Jack, Ten and Nine between 0.3x and 3.2x. The Wild replaces any symbol but the Scatter and has one payout of its own, 10x for six in a row.
Seven, eleven, fifteen or nineteen free spins come from three, four, five or six Scatters. Inside the feature two or more Scatters add three to eleven spins, and on ordinary spins the game may reveal one to five Mystery Scatter symbols that turn into real Scatters before the count is made.
Elephant Orbs collected during the free spins fill four meters, one per goat. A filled meter replaces that goat with the next goat up the pay table and adds one spin, and once the fourth meter fills, every goat becomes a Pink Elephant until the feature ends.
The return to player is 96.13% on ordinary play. Feature purchases start at 60x the bet for a three-Scatter entry at 96.33%, with four-, five- and six-Scatter entries at 100x, 150x and 250x; the 60x entry is the one tested here. A round is capped at 10,000x the bet, a spin costs between EUR 0.10 and EUR 100.00, and Thunderkick's card for the game says high volatility.

Verdict
Elephants arrived before the metersThe sixth spin of round 9384 paid EUR 415.80 on a EUR 1.00 stake before any of the four orb meters had filled: five Pink Elephants on 54 ways returned EUR 351.00 at once, and four Aces on 36 ways and four Kings on 18 ways added EUR 64.80. The first meter of that feature filled only on the next spin, and the eight-spin feature closed at 440.3x, the largest round of the test by a wide margin.
The meters still earned their keep over the series. The three features that filled all four, rounds 4083, 4237 and 5365, averaged 142.03x from their free spins against 30.83x for the 29 that stopped at the second meter, and the 1,638 orbs that landed filled 132 meters, each one adding a spin. Sixty-four of the 65 natural features ran past their opening award, the longest to 19 spins.
Mystery Scatters did more of the triggering than ordinary ones. They showed on 61 ordinary screens and 39 of those screens ended in a feature, 39 of the 65 features in 10,000 rounds; features arrived one per 154 rounds and their free spins averaged 51.65x the stake, median 22.0x, 35.88% of all money the series paid.
Fifty purchases of the three-Scatter entry at EUR 60.00 returned EUR 2,030.30, 67.68% of their price; the median ticket came to EUR 22.95 and forty tickets stayed below the price. Ticket 21 was the exception at EUR 251.90, EUR 126.00 of it on its second spin; two tickets, 3 and 38, paid nothing at all.
- Five Pink Elephants on 54 ways paid EUR 351.00 on the sixth spin of round 9384, 415.8x in all, with no meter filled yet.
- The three features that filled all four meters, rounds 4083, 4237 and 5365, averaged 142.03x from their free spins.
- Mystery Scatters appeared on 61 ordinary screens and turned 39 of them into features, 39 of the 65 in the test.
- Sixty-four of the 65 features ran past their opening award, and filled meters alone added 132 spins.
- The 29 features that stopped at the second meter averaged 30.83x, and the one that filled none, round 5333, paid 0.6x from seven spins.
- Forty of the fifty EUR 60.00 purchases returned less than their price, with a median ticket of EUR 22.95.
- Ordinary spins reached 120x once, in round 2780, and nothing else above 48x in 10,000 rounds.
- The 60x purchase starts at seven spins, and 16 of the 50 tickets gained only one extra spin.

FAQ
6 questions · answered from the logCan a free spin pay big before the orb meters fill?
Yes: the sixth free spin of round 9384 paid EUR 415.80 while no orb meter had filled yet. Five Pink Elephants on 54 ways made EUR 351.00 of it, four Aces on 36 ways EUR 43.20 and four Kings on 18 ways EUR 21.60, and the first meter of that feature filled only on the following spin.
What did the EUR 60 bonus buy return in the Pink Elephants 2 demo?
Over fifty tickets, 67.68% of its price: EUR 2,030.30 back from EUR 3,000.00, a median ticket of EUR 22.95, forty tickets below the price and two at zero. Ticket 21 returned EUR 251.90, and without it the other 49 averaged 0.6049x their price.
Which changes do the orb meters bring to the free spins?
Each Elephant Orb fills one of four meters; a full meter upgrades that goat to the next one on the pay table and adds a spin, and the fourth full meter turns every goat into a Pink Elephant. In the test 1,638 orbs filled 132 meters; the three features that filled the fourth averaged 142.03x, the 29 that stopped at two averaged 30.83x.
Did Mystery Scatters start free spins, or only hint at them?
They started 39 of the 65 natural features. Mystery Scatters appeared on 61 ordinary screens, and on 39 of them the revealed Scatters reached three; the remaining 26 features came from three or more ordinary Scatters on the screen.
Is 93.56% a sign that the demo runs below its 96.13% setting?
No. The sample of 10,000 rounds leaves an approximate 95% CI of 78.43% to 108.7% around the measured mean, and the listed 96.13% sits inside it. Free spins paid EUR 3,357.00 of the EUR 9,356.30 returned, and 7,613 rounds paid nothing, which is the shape of a sample this size rather than a changed setting.
What length did a Pink Elephants 2 feature usually reach?
11.55 spins. Three Scatters open seven spins and four open eleven, 64 of the 65 features then gained spins from extra Scatters or filled meters, and the longest, round 5365, ran 19 spins. Eight and thirteen spins were the most common lengths, with 16 and 13 features each.
