Thunderstruck Slot Machine Review |
 |
|
The Thunderstruck slot machine is a bonus video slot machine, meaning that the graphics are in line with typical video slot machine graphics and that there is a bonus round involved in the playing of the game. The bonus round consists of winning fifteen free spins and during those free spins any win that you make is tripled in size automatically. This is different from the typical bonus game of picking from a second screen and instead relies on the appearance of bonus symbols on the actual reels. |

The Thunderstruck slot machine was developed by Microgaming and indeed had been one of the most popular games that Microgaming had ever created at the time that it was introduced. Now the popularity of the game has calmed down slightly and it is just one in a series of excellent games put out by the Microgaming Corporation. There are five reels on the Thunderstruck Slot Machine, which is typical for a video slot machine. The nine pay lines are below average for a five reel video slot machine in today's world, which is perhaps one of the reasons as to why the popularity of the Thunderstruck slot machine did not remain at the high level that it came in on.
Theme wise, the Thunderstruck Slot Machine features the theme of the Norse God of Lightning and Thunder, Thor. Thor is one of the most famous Norse Gods and he is represented in this particular slot machine through the symbols of the hammer, the fist, the castle, lightning and a horn. In addition to those symbols specific to the Norse God Thor, there are also symbols for Ace, King, Queen, Jack, Ten and Nine in order to round out the complete compliment of symbols that this particular slot machine has been given by the Microgaming programmers.
The coin sizes for the Thunderstruck slot machine are $0.01, $0.02, $0.05, $0.10, $0.20, $0.25, $0.50 and $1.00, with the coin amounts being wagered per spin varying between one coin per spin and forty-five coins per spin. There is a primary jackpot of 10,000 coins winnable from this slot machine and a secondary jackpot of 2000 coins, although the former does require the playing of all forty-five coin maximums on each spin and therefore requires at least an investment of $0.45 per hand.
In conclusion, the Thunderstruck Slot Machine represents a typical video slot machine with a theme that should be very pleasing to people that are fans of Nordic mythologies and in particular the God Thor. |
