Thunderstruck Wild Lightning
Thunderstruck Wild Lightning
This slot is the Games Global (formerly Microgaming) and Stormcraft Studios sequel game in the ever popular Thunderstruck series.
It’s called the Thunderstruck Wild Lightning slot, features with a Link&Win feature, 5 Free Spins rounds and a mini, minor, major and mega Jackpot!
The question is, will this sequel live up to its predecessor Thunderstruck II? After all, it is one of the most played games ever. Or the Odin’s Riches slot for that matter – that one is from another Games Global partner, Just For the Win. Careful though, as this game is pretty volatile- along the lines of the Mental slot from Nolimit City.
The Graphics
The sharp HD graphics here are something of a step up from Thunderstruck II, and your metal clad reels floating in a blue abyss with stars twinkling behind. Is it the heavens or outer space? Who knows! It looks very nice though.
You will see that Odin, Loki, and the Valkyrie are missing from this installment, instead the focus is on Thor. The poor fellow is engaged on an epic quest to retrieve the lost World Stones – which could take him a bit of time….
Thunderstruck Wild Lightning Slot Game Play
Thunderstruck Wild Lightning slot comes with 5 reels, 4 rows and 40 pay-lines. Your wagers start at 0.20 and go up to a maximum of 16.00 coins per go.
FYI: This game is in the high volatility category, so you might not see the large pays for quite some time.
The high value symbols include glowing orbs in red, orange, green, blue and purple – while the low paying icons symbols are stone runes with J, Q, K & A carved on them.
Thor himself is your wild icon, and he will hit the reels with a x2 or x5 win multiplier. He can also land stacked.
The big chap’s legendary hammer, Mjolnir, is your scatter symbol.
The Bonuses
Link & Win
Collect 6x of the flaming blue Thunderball icons you’ll be awarded 3 re-spins – with all Thunderballs sticky on the reels. Any further Thunderballs collected will also become sticky, and your re-spins will reset to 3.
You can also Unlock extra rows by collecting 15x, 20x, 25x or 30x Thunderball symbols – giving you more ways to win.
Once the re-spins have run out ( or all positions are filled) you will receive a cash prize of all the values on the Thunderballs.

A flash of lightning will now strike the reels that will add stacked wilds to the grid. There are wins of up to 8,000x your bet on offer here.

The Monkey Verdict
Thunderstruck Wild Lightning slot is an excellent addition to the Thunderstruck series – with its glorious graphics and myriad bonus features!
The volatility is pretty scorching – up a notch from Thunderstruck II – but in my opinion, this highly anticipated sequel is just as good as you hoped it would be!
