With the original Thunderstruck slot being a storming success upon its release in 2004, the folks at Microgaming set themselves a challenge when they released Thunderstruck II. This slot continues to do justice to Thor: the comics and films which the slot is based on and, of course the Norse god of thunder.
One of the reasons why this slot has won over the masses is because the five-reel features a staggering 243 ways to win and the potential of winning up to 2.4 million coins.
One of the features which make Thunderstruck II stand out above the rest is The Windstorm: this is triggered at random and can turn up to five reels fully wild. But it doesn't end there. The Great hall of spins is the jewel in the crown of Thunderstruck II.
Rolling in three or more Hammer symbols will open the Great Hall of Spins. The beauty of this round is that the more times you enter the Great Hall of Spins, the more the free spins and the higher the multiplier. These range from ten free spins to 25 and carry multipliers of up to 6x.
The background music in Thunderstruck II is reminiscent of the films and also manages to keep you in suspense. Needless to say, Microgaming have also gone all-out with the HD graphics, which aren't too taxing on less modern computers, but still yield a stunning experience.
