Lightning Strike Megaways Slot Review
Since Blueprint Gaming entered into an agreement with Big Time Gaming to release licensed Megaways slots, they have been releasing new Megaways titles quite often. This time they released Lightning Strike Megaways. Although there is absolutely a danger that we will get tired of those Megaways slots, the saturation point is still far away: for the time being we still like them all too much. Temple Tumble Megaways from Relax Gaming is perhaps one of the best Megaways slots ever and Blueprint Gaming has already released some very good Megaways slots. Just think of the fantastic Primal Megaways, the surprisingly nice Genie Jackpots Megaways and of course the epic Vikings Unleashed Megaways.
This Lightning Strike Megaways is very similar in style and theme to Vikings Unleashed: the Norse gods play the leading role and that is of course accompanied by many expressions and symbolism from the Vikings era.
How to play at Lightning Strike Megaways?
We will no longer fully explain the Megaways slots exactly. Otherwise we will repeat ourselves and we don't like that.
Therefore, in short, everything you need to know:
- 6 rolls
- Win all ways with up to 15,625 ways to win
- You can bet from 0.10 euros to a maximum of 20 euros per spin
- Payout rate of 96.50%
- Win up to 10,000 x the total bet
It is also striking that winning combinations from both left to right and from right to left apply. The symbols are a mix of Norse gods and map symbols. Of course Thor and Loki pass by and Mjolnir, the magical hammer of Thor, cannot be missed. The hammer is the wild symbol and substitutes for all other symbols. In a 6-of-a-kind, the gods yield between 2 x and 50 x the total bet. Do you turn 9, 10, J, Q, K or A 6 times? Then you win between 1 x and 1.5 x the bet for each winning combination.
Mystery symbols
At random times, the Yggdrasil tree can pass by: it all contains the same mystery symbols and can lead to big payouts. Wilds with multipliers and respins. As soon as the Mjolnir appears on a reel, it turns into an expanding wild with a multiplier. You will also receive a free respin where the wild reel (s) are held. The more wild reels you manage to spin, the more chances you have for huge prizes.
Gamble Feature
The gamble feature with this video slot is not just a head-or-coin or guess-the-card story. You need the gamble feature to win the free spins. As soon as you have won a prize of 5 x the bet or higher, the gamble feature is started.
You always have 3 options:
- By gambling (possibly with changed odds and benefits)
- Taking your profit in money
- Grab your winnings in Mega Spins
Mega Spins
You can play up to 25 Mega Spins, but you can always take less. The Mega Spins are free spins in which extra lots of wilds with multipliers and extra mystery symbols are active. It is not a guarantee of success, but it is absolutely possible to get insanely large payouts with the Mega Spins. You can spin up to 10,000 x the total bet per spin, so those are serious amounts. Casino Hunter is getting out of bed for less.
What do we think of Lightning Strike Megaways?
Blueprint Gaming has especially released a very solid Megaways slot with Lightning Strike Megaways. While not really super original anywhere, it contains enough interesting elements to be worth trying out. The Gamble Feature has been very well thought out and is yet another way to activate a free spins bonus.
