Thunderstruck stands as one of the most successful video slots ever conceived in the online gambling atmosphere. Riding on the wings of the Thunderstruck is Thunderstruck II, which offers players new and exciting ways of scoring a winning a pay-out.
Thunderstruck II has its genesis in the gods and titans of old. The game is a tribute to the mythological underpinnings of the world’s creation and development. Asgard, the rainbow city in Nordic mythology, forms part of the central iconography of the game and is represented in numerous design elements in the slot’s construction. Then we have the gods and titans themselves. Valkyrie, the fair maiden of Valhalla has been imbued with the power of giving players 10 re-triggering free spins with a 5x multiplier effect. Then there is Asgard’s ruler, Odin, a god associated with war, the thrill of victory, the finality of death, the value of wisdom, the realm of magic, the eminence of prophecy and poetry.
There is Thor, one of Odin’s sons and the mighty god of thunder. Thor is also strongly associated with oak trees, destruction, fertility, healing and, ultimately, the protection of humankind. He is one of the most mentioned and revered gods in the Norse mythological canon. The day Thursday, part of our Gregorian calendar, has its etymology in Thor (Thor’s Day), which stems from the pagan period and remained in use today. So even today, Thor’s mythological importance and long heritage remains with us. And he makes an appearance once more on Thunderstruck II’s lines and reels.
Watch out for Loki, the god of mischief. In this case, Loki could well serve as a boon for your bankroll: he offers 15 free spins, and exudes an animated burst of fierce lightning should you manage to trigger the Wild Magic feature. Loki’s role in Norse mythology tends to differ according to which source you’re reading. He sometimes helps the gods and at other times makes mischief and causes chaos. Loki is the historical shape shifter, sometimes appearing as a small horse, other times as a fly, a salmon, a seal and even an elderly woman. Because of the enormous trouble he causes, Loki is ultimately bound by the gods. We guarantee, though, that if Loki strikes in Thunderstruck II you’ll only be bound by your own happiness at watching your figures soar.
If a player is lucky enough, if the gods of the old world smile upon him, he can unlock the God’s Features, reaching the 20th trigger of the bonus and earning Gold Status in the Great Hall of Spins.
Thunderstruck is a tribute to the days of yore, to a time when mankind and myth were intertwined in a complex and intimate relationship in their view of the world. If you cherish the stores of the old world, a time of heroes, of swords and arrows, of grand adventures, of the natural meeting the supernatural, then you owe it to yourself to step into the old Norse world and wager on Thunderstruck II’s epic-level rewards, bonuses and free spin opportunities.
