Thunderstruck

Thunderstruck Slot is a cult classic title from the Games Global collection. You will feel the might of Norse mythology in the bold theme as the mighty Thor and his magical hammer, Mjölnir appear as symbols, along with other mythical images. A multiplier boost gives the free spins round a real edge, and you could take home a divine prize worth up to over $1 million from a single spin. While sequels to this title like   Thunderstruck Wild Lightning pack more features, they cannot match the classic charm of the original.

My Thunderstruck 25 Spins Experience

For mythology enthusiasts and those who appreciate classic slot designs, Thunderstruck remains a timeless choice.

I started betting setting my bet amount to 3.60 credits. First getting to know the layout of the game, how it feels when the reels are spun, and notice the design. Being a hallmark in the Nordic-themed slots released in 2004 I noticed the simplicity of how the slots were back then compared to modern slots. From what I had already known about the slot I was excited to try and hit the free spins feature to get a big win. This was unfortunately not my lucky day for this game. I had quickly readjusted my bet size to 6.75 where been awarded a very small win of 15 and adjusted again to 9 credits per spin and was awarded a decent win of 29 credits.

Results:
  • Didn’t end on a profit

As a testament to its enduring popularity, Microgaming introduced a sequel, "Thunderstruck II," elevating the success of the original with more features and better graphics. For mythology enthusiasts and those who appreciate classic slot designs, Thunderstruck remains a timeless choice.

Our Opinion:

I can understand why Thunderstruck slot still tops the slot charts, despite being released almost 2 decades ago. While the graphics are simple and a bit dated, they have a powerful, bold look that put me in the mood for some exciting reel spinning. The wild symbol and free spins multipliers mean that big wins can land at any time, and the top possible win per spin of $1.35 million means that this classic is a must-play. Check out Thunderstruck II if you want to see the next upgrade of this title and Masters of Valhalla for even more Norse mythical action.
