Data
Thunderstruck II isn’t your run-off-the-mill video slot. There are many details about this video slot that cuts it above the rest. The first thing that you’ll notice is the absence of pay-line selections. The usual video slots would ask you to select the pay lines you want to bet on. More pay lines equals a higher bet. In Thunderstruck II, all pay lines are activated with every spin, giving you 243 ways to win! Every coin bet on Thunderstruck II is multiplied by 30 per spin. The coin size ranges from $0.01 to $0.05, and you can bet up to 10 coins per spin, which gives you about $0.30 minimum bet per spin, and $15 maximum bet. That’s not all; if you bet the maximum (10 coins at $0.05), your winnings will be multiplied 10x!
Features
Microgaming knows a thing or two about keeping what works, and with Thunderstruck II, they kept the original characters while garnishing the video slots with amazing graphics to enhance the players’ gaming experience. The stars of the video slot include Norse gods Thor, Odin, Valkyrie, and Loki. Thor’s hammer triggers the free spins AKA Great Hall of Spins where you can select the mode of free spins you want. The Valkyrie Bonus lets you play 10 free spins with all wins multiplied 5x. The Loki Bonus is triggered after you have landed 5 bonus triggers. You get to play 15 free spins with a twist on the third reel, where symbols will switch to wilds at random. The Odin Bonus is launched after you get 10 bonus triggers. You get to play 20 free spins with a feature that randomly turns symbols into x2 or x3 multipliers or even x6 if you get two multipliers in a winning line. The best of all is Thor’s Bonus, which is played after you get 15 bonus triggers. You get to play 25 free spins with a feature called Rolling Reels, which multiplies your winnings x5!
Special Features
If the gods’ blessings are not enough, you can count on your luck to trigger the Wild Storm feature which sets off at random. The Wild Storm turns random symbols into wilds. You can get anything from 1 to 5 wilds at a time. Get all the wilds on the reels and you get a mind-numbing bonus of 2,430,000 coins!
Conclusion
Thunderstruck II is a fantastic sequel to Microgaming’s immensely successful Thunderstruck. While we could bet that having Thunderstruck III would be awesome, we reckon that it might be hard to top this one.
