About Crystal Fruits

Duck Hunters 2 is a franchise extension, so the more useful editorial question is what has been iterated rather than what the game contains. The setting has shifted. The mechanical spine is intentionally continuous with the first title.

While the original game took place in a more casual hunting environment, Duck Hunters 2 shifts the action deeper into the woods and introduces a more chaotic setting. The ducks, previously depicted as targets, now appear armed and ready to retaliate. The tonal escalation matches Nolimit City’s house style, but the meaningful development sits in the feature layer.

The clearest example is the bonus structure, where the sequel widens the range of upgrades tied to its three free-spin tiers. Free spins activate when three, four or five scatter symbols land. Three scatters award seven Duck Hunt Spins, four scatters trigger eight Hawk Eye Spins and five scatters unlock ten Big Game Spins. Each tier grants progressively more upgrade selections, which is where the sequel’s expanded potential is concentrated rather than in the base game.

Prosecutors allege that five suspects had operated internet-based gambling services without the required German licences from at least July 2021. The volume of bets placed on these platforms reportedly exceeded €5.8 billion between mid-2021 and the end of 2023. 

In addition to illegal gambling, investigators suspect extensive tax evasion, with a projected tax shortfall of about €77.6 million for 2024.

The DSWV, representing licensed sports-betting operators, broadly welcomed the law enforcement action as a necessary response to the illegal market’s growth and associated risks.

During a previous Sphere earnings call, Sphere chair Jim Dolan teased a “broomstick ride with a witch.”

That line got repeated as part of “Wizard 2.0,” with most media outlets assuming it was to be among the production’s new effects.

Our suspicion is that Dolan was referring to an immersive video simulator—likely intended for the lobby before the movie begins.
