There are also poker symbols (9 through Ace) available in this slot machine.

Features and Bonuses

In this game, the Thunderstruck II Logo symbol is wild. It can substitute all other symbols except Thor’s hammer. Additionally, it can double the player’s wins when it substitutes in a winning combination. It ceases to be a wild symbol during the Wildstorm Feature that is randomly triggered and turns all the reels to wild. Free spins cannot be triggered during this feature.

The Great Hall of Spins feature helps the gambler to unlock the multi-level Free Spins bonus features. It is triggered when three or more Thor’s hammer symbols appear on the screen.

Triggering this feature between the player’s first and fourth bonus feature trigger enters the player into the Valkyrie Bonus feature where he/she is awarded ten free spins, and all wins are multiplied 5x. The gambler can retrigger more free spins during this feature.

The Loki Bonus is triggered between the fifth and ninth bonus feature triggers. In this round, a gambler is awarded 15 free spins with a Wild Magic Feature that randomly turns symbols into additional wilds.

The Odin Bonus is triggered between the tenth and fourteenth trigger of the bonus feature. The player is awarded 20 free spins with the Wild Raven feature that randomly turns symbols into 2x and 3x multipliers. The player is awarded a 6x multiplier if both of Odin’s Ravens appear on the reels simultaneously.

The last and most rewarding Free Spins feature is Thor’s Bonus feature that is triggered in the fifteenth trigger of the bonus feature. It awards the player with 25 free spins, and a Rolling Reels feature where consecutive wins increase the multiplier up to 5x.
