AdvantPlay at ii89: originals, sequels and standalones

Eight of the 16 AdvantPlay pokies at ii89 online casino come in pairs: two Dragon Chi's Quest games, two Piggy Bank Gold games, two football games and two titles on the same ways layout. This page sets each pair side by side, then covers the eight that stand alone.

AdvantPlay, the studio behind the ii89 games

Here AdvantPlay means the studio that makes the pokies in the ii89 lobby. A few casino sites have the AdvantPlay name in their branding, yet none of them is the game studio.

AdvantPlay calls itself a B2B casino game studio and was established in 2023. It builds games for casinos to offer, and its official game list has 65 published titles. On its site the studio states that its games are tested and certified by GLI and BMM Testlabs. Every game page gives the RTP, the volatility, the max win as a multiple of the stake and the pay structure, which is where the figures below come from.

ii89 carries 16 AdvantPlay slots. Eight of them come in pairs, and comparing each pair is the quickest way to see what the studio changed and why you might pick one over the other.

Dragon Chi's Quest against Dragon Chi's Quest 2

Both games play 25 pay lines on 3×5 reels at Medium volatility, and both are built around lotus prizes and Tai Chi symbols that end up in bags. In the original, a dragon head collects the lotus prizes and Tai Chi and fills bonus bags. In the sequel, lotus prizes and Tai Chi fill Fortune Bags during the bonus game.

The numbers separate them. Dragon Chi's Quest has a 97.08% RTP and an 80,000x max win; Dragon Chi's Quest 2 has 97.01% and 100,000x. The sequel lifts the ceiling by 20,000x and gives up 0.07% of RTP. On AU$500 of total stakes, 0.07% is 35 cents over the long run, far less than one session can swing either way.

Piggy Bank Gold against Piggy Bank Gold 2

This pair changes the most. The original has one pay line on a 1×3 reel set. The Piggy Bank pays on sight, and diamond and banknote symbols raise the prize. It is Medium volatility with a 97.08% RTP and a 30,000x max win.

The sequel drops the line for cluster pays on a 3×3 grid, so a group of matching symbols touching each other is what wins. Its Piggy Bank collects adjacent money and diamond prizes in one cluster. Volatility rises to Medium–High, the RTP is 97.00%, and the max win jumps to 150,000x, the largest of all 16 at ii89.

The original suits a player who wants to read every spin at a glance. The sequel suits a player who accepts a rougher ride in exchange for the biggest official ceiling.

Merdeka Football against Golden Football

Both run 10 lines on 3×5 reels, and in both, six or more footballs start Hold and Win. In that round the special symbols lock in place and you get respins to add more. Both also have a Power Shot. The difference is what it kicks onto the reels: plain wilds in Merdeka Football, multiplier wilds in Golden Football.

That one change shows in the figures. Merdeka Football is Medium volatility with a 9,600x max win and a 96.96% RTP, the lowest of the 16. Golden Football is Medium–High, has a 128,000x max win and returns 96.99%. If you want the calmer of the two, start with Merdeka; if you are after the second-biggest max win at ii89, Golden Football is the one.

Mahjong Roar and Royal Ace: one reel set, two games

These two are not a series, but they share a layout. The five reels show 3, 4, 5, 4 and 3 symbols, and multiplying those together gives 720 ways. When every reel shows five symbols, the count reaches 3,125. Both games are Medium volatility, with a 97.00% RTP and a 2,500x max win.

The features are where they part. Mahjong Roar has cascade multipliers, gold tiles that turn wild, and free games that unlock extra reels. Royal Ace has cascades that raise the multiplier, and free games that unlock bigger reel layouts.

The eight AdvantPlay games that stand alone

Higher volatility

Zeustrike pays scatter-style on a 5×6 grid: matching symbols count wherever they land rather than along lines. Multiplier symbols add to wins, and 7 lightning totems unlock Super Free Games. It is rated High, with a 30,000x max win and a 97.10% RTP, the second-highest here. Buffalo Rush HIGHROLLER, also High, plays 1,024 ways on 5×4 reels; buffalo stacks merge into mega multipliers, and wilds expand in free games. Its max win is 15,120x.

Ways that grow

Aztec: Bonus Hunt 2 carries a sequel's name, but it is the only game from that line on this page. It uses MegaWays on 5×4 reels, so the number of ways changes each spin, anywhere from 1,024 to 1,048,576. Upgrade symbols lift prizes, and there are free spins, Festival Games and a Giant Spin. Medium–High volatility, 12,000x. Golden Egypt starts at 243 ways on a 5×6 grid and can reach 7,776 as cascades clear stone blockers; six scarabs open its three-set bonus game. Medium volatility, 6,000x, 97.05% RTP.

Lines with a twist

Big Net Bass and Fighting Bull both have 40 lines, on 5×4 and 5×5 reels. In Big Net Bass, wilds net the prizes on fish symbols, and crab and octopus symbols add extras; its max win is 16,000x. In Fighting Bull, the bull charges the matador wild and lifts its multiplier, alongside free games; its max win is 8,000x.

Grids and avalanches

Sugar Crush pays clusters on a 7×7 grid, and cluster cascades charge colour energy and raise a bag multiplier that persists. Labubu: Fall In Wild plays 32,400 ways on 6×5 reels with avalanche reels, changing boards, TYCOCO multipliers and free games. It has the top RTP at ii89, 97.48%, but the smallest max win, 1,100x.

RTP across the series at ii89

RTP is the share of all stakes a pokie returns over a very long run; a single session can land well above or below it. In every pair here the gap is small: 0.07% between the Dragon Chi's Quest games, 0.08% between the Piggy Bank Gold games and 0.03% between the football games. A casino can choose from several RTP settings the studio supplies, so a title may show a lower figure elsewhere. ii89 runs each AdvantPlay game on its default setting, the highest available, and the game info panel shows it.

ii89 supports demo play, which makes it easy to open both games in a pair with practice credits and feel the difference for yourself. AdvantPlay also links an official demo from each game page on its own site. Try Piggy Bank Gold and its sequel back to back to see how a single line compares with a cluster grid. Demo credits have no cash value, and demo results do not predict real-money play. The free pokies guide has more on demo play.
