Thunderstruck Slot Review & Game Bonus

Thunderstruck slot machine is one of the most iconic slot games in the Microgaming catalogue, and has been since its release in 2003. This 5 reel, 9 payline mobile slot based on a Norse mythology theme has two main draws still to this day, one of which is the huge max jackpot 10,000x and the second is a strong free spins bonus with 15 free spins but more importantly a 3x or 6x multiplier which creates some really big wins. Check out the full Thunderstruck slot review below for all the details of this legendary slot.

Thunderstruck Slot Review & Game Bonus

As any slot enthusiast worth their salt will know, the original version of the Thunderstruck slot is one of the most popular games ever invented. First hitting our screens way back in 2003, the Microgaming slots title has proved such a hit with players that it has even been re-made as a machine in real-life casinos.

So what’s the secret to the game’s success? Well, in essence the Thunderstruck slot machine is a very simple title that features five reels and nine paylines in total, but a high RTP stat of 95% and the frequency with which the free spins feature comes about have made it a staple in most player’s video slot arsenal.

Having not received a face-lift since its initial release (players should check out the sequel if they want superior graphics) the Thunderstruck slot is starting to look its age, but is nevertheless a colourful slot decorated with lightning bolts, hammers, Viking horns and – of course – the mighty Thor himself.

Ram Raid

While Thor features as the game’s wild symbol and doubles any winning paylines that he features in, the real draw of Thunderstruck comes in the form of its free spins bonus feature. Activated whenever three or more ram scatter symbols appear anywhere on the gameboard, players instantly receive a payout of 5-500x their bet (dependent on the number of symbols) and 15 free spins.

During their bonus games, players will also benefit from a 3x prize multiplier on any winning paylines, meaning that should they be triggered with the help of a Thor wild symbol, they’ll get a massive 6x their normal win amount. Better still, this feature can also be re-triggered, which enables players to chain together huge sequences of spins and some truly God-like cumulative payouts.

The top prize in the Thunderstruck slot is also a substantial 10,000x your bet, and though this prize doesn’t benefit from the same 2x multiplier as the game’s standard payouts, it is still a mightily rewarding jackpot considering the relatively low variance of the slot and the number of free spins on offer.

Still Electrifying?

Though the graphics in the Thunderstruck slot are no longer anything to get excited about, it’s not hard to see why the slot still retains its loyal following thanks to its generous free spins and prize multipliers.
