Rule #1: Don't Be an Idiot With Your Money
I've seen too many players blow their entire bankroll in 20 minutes. Don't be that guy.
Your Bankroll is Your Life
Listen, Mental 2 will absolutely destroy you if you don't respect your bankroll. I've had sessions where I went 200 spins without hitting anything meaningful. The game is designed to make you desperate before it gives you anything good. If you run out of money, you're done. Plan for the long haul.
Embrace the Chaos
You're not playing this game for 10x wins. You're here for the 1000x+ payouts that happen in the bonus rounds. The base game is just the price of admission. Sometimes you'll go 100 spins without hitting anything, and that's normal. Don't panic and start increasing your bets.
Know When to Walk Away
This is the hardest lesson to learn. Set a loss limit and stick to it. Even more important - set a win goal. I once hit a 2000x win and got greedy, ended up losing it all back plus another €300. Don't be me. Cash out when you're ahead and come back another day.
Reading the Madman's Scribbles: Base Game Tactics
The base game is a minefield, but it whispers secrets to those who listen.

The Omen of the Fire Frames
Fire Frames are the harbingers of chaos. When they start appearing more frequently, the asylum is waking up. This is the game telling you that a hot streak might be coming. It's not a guarantee, but it's a sign. This is when you hold your nerve, maintain your bet, and watch for the Enhancer Cells to ignite. A single xNudge® Wild from an Enhancer can change everything.

The Scream of the Dead Patients
The Dead Patients feature is a defibrillator for your bankroll. Landing two of these tormented souls can jolt your balance back to life with a multiplier up to x9,999. This isn't just a win; it's a second chance. It's the game giving you the fuel you need to continue your descent into the bonus rounds. Don't waste it.
The Descent: Mastering the Three Levels of Hell
Your entire strategy culminates here. The goal is to climb the ladder of madness.
Level 1: The Antechamber (Autopsy Free Spins)
You've made it inside. This is where the hunt truly begins. The sticky Fire Frames are your best friend. Your goal here isn't just to win; it's to find the Disembodied Scatters. They are the keys to the deeper levels of the asylum where the real treasure is buried.
Level 2: The Operating Theater (Lobotomy Free Spins)
Now, we operate. The sticky Disembodied symbols trigger Mental Transform on every single spin, and the all-important Dead Multiplier is born. This is where you can stack serious, session-defining wins. The multiplier is your scalpel; use it to carve out a fortune.
Level 3: The Void of Riches (Mental Free Spins)
You've reached the heart of the abyss. The sanctum sanctorum of insanity and wealth. Here, the Dead Multiplier Count **NEVER RESETS**. It only grows. With both Scatters locked in place, every spin builds upon the last, creating a crescendo of multipliers that can lead to the legendary 99,999x. This is it. This is the moment legends are made of.
Selling Your Soul: The Nolimit Booster Dilemma
A pact with the devil for instant gratification. Use with extreme caution.
Let's be clear: the Bonus Buy is a shortcut through the asylum's most dangerous corridors. It's for seasoned veterans with cash to burn. For 99% of players, the organic hunt is the smarter path. But if you must dance with the devil...
Briefing from the Asylum Veteran
Quick answers to keep you alive.
I'm new to this nightmare. What's my first move?
Minimum bet (€0.20). Period. You need at least 100-200 spins just to understand the rhythm of the madness. Learn the tells, see the features, feel the volatility. Think of it as mapping the asylum before the real heist. Increase your bet only when you're no longer a tourist here.
Is the Bonus Buy ever actually worth it?
Almost never. For every legendary win you see on YouTube from a bonus buy, there are thousands of players who got wiped out. It's a tool for content creators and the ultra-rich. The xBet™ feature is the true strategist's play for better odds without selling the farm.
How do I know when to end my session?
Your session ends when one of two things happens: you hit your pre-determined loss limit, or you land a win so big it makes you gasp. If you hit that monster, take a screenshot, cash out, and walk away a legend. Don't let the asylum's whispers lure you into giving it back.
Your Tour of the Asylum is Over.
You have the knowledge. You have the warnings. Now all that's left is to test your nerve. Practice in the demo, forge your discipline, and may the xGods smile upon you.
