Thunderstruck 2

Probably the most anticipated sequel to a slot game in online casino history, Thunderstruck 2 was released to a fanfare of publicity back in May 2010 by Microgaming.

The original Thunderstruck, has become the most popular online slot game across all the casinos which carry Microgaming’s software and whilst 6 years was a long wait for TS2, it was well worth it.

Not a high variance slot by any means, TS2 appeals to all slots players, whether they are a low variance fan or prefer the chance of a big win, by usually playing the high variance variety.

Unlike the original which was a 5 reel, 9 payline slot, Thunderstruck 2 is a 5 reel 20 payline slot game providing players with a total of 243 ways of winning.

Thunderstruck 2 offers four different free spin modes which are activated upon hitting three or more Hammer symbols, which act as scatters. Upon being awarded the feature, you are taken into the Great Hall of Spins. The free spins on offer are Valkyrie, Loki, Odin and Thor.

To start off you are only able to choose Valkyrie which provides you with ten free spins. The subsequent free spin features in the Great Hall of Spins are unlocked after you are awarded additional free spins features upon hitting three or more hammer scatter symbols. To trigger the next character in the Great Hall of Spins, you must hit the free spins feature 5 times. However the casino software remembers past gameplay, so this does not need to be achieved in the one playing session.

Whilst the differing free spin games, play differently with increasing number of free spins and multipliers awarded, in essence you have as much chance of hitting a good win playing Valkyrie with her 10 spins, as Thor with his 25 free spins on offer. But the alternative free spin games does provide longevity to Thunderstruck 2 and is a neat facility to incorporate into the slot.

Nearly two years old, regardless of age, TS2 is one of our favourite slot games amongst the staff at Qwerty Casino. To try the game for free without having to open an account at an online casino, the Thunderstruck Slots site provides both games for visitors.
