Lion Thunder Review

You need only 2 of the premium symbols adjacent on a payline to win here, and you can place bets between 40p and £100 per spin. The big cats are nicely depicted on the reels, although the game comes with old-school, brick and mortar inspired audiovisuals. Still, the thunder and lightning effects are nicely done, and adds a dramatic effect to the bonus round.

Free spins with multiplying multiplier wilds is not exactly unheard of in this business, and clearly Raging Rhino has been a source of inspiration. Being able to gamble for more spins is a neat feature though, and you will often need plenty of free spins to make headway here. The random Jackpot King feature adds an extra layer of excitement to the gameplay, and massive wins can be landed here for sure.

Lion Thunder slot Features

The diamond symbol is the wild in this game, and it will step in for all regular pay symbols to help you win. The game logo is the scatter, and you get 8, 15, 25 or 100 Thunder Spins when you land 3, 4, 5 or 6 logo scatters, respectively. The diamond wild will land with multiplier values of 2x, 3x and 5x in the bonus round, and these can also multiply with each other.

What makes this game stick out however, is the Spin Boost feature that comes right before the bonus round plays out. This is quite simply an optional bonus wheel gamble where you can win extra spins. You choose between different levels, and betting 1x your stake can win you 1 extra spin.

Increase the stake to win up to 4 extra spins per gamble, while also increasing your chance for success. You can keep on winning up to 50 extra spins this way, and you don’t lose your originally won free spins if you lose on the Spin Boost wheel. Finally, you can buy the bonus round for 40x your stake, but this option is not available for UK players.

Lion Thunder is also a Jackpot King slot, and this jackpot feature can trigger randomly on any given spin. You need to collect at least 15 Crown symbols to trigger the Wheel King feature.

The 200 Spins Lion Thunder slot Experience

We took advantage of the bonus buy option after a while of base game grind, and we also tried our luck on the Spin Boost wheel a few times. We got only 1 extra free spin however, and you can see how much we won in the brief and edited highlights video below.

Review Summary

Blueprint has clearly allowed themselves to be inspired by the popular Raging Rhino series, and even the diamond wild is similar. Lion Thunder is a more powerful slot than the original Rhino game however, as you can win up to 50,000x your stake here (capped at £250,000). Both are volatile games with wild multipliers, but the RTP of 96.5 % is a lot higher here.

The only innovation brought to the table is the Spin Boost feature. It can be fun to gamble for extra free spins for sure, especially since you don’t stand to lose any spins. You can lose money though. It can be frustrating at times, since having a lot of free spins is far from a guarantee that you will win anything of significance in this game.

Pros

• Bonus round with up to 5x multiplying multiplier wilds
• Spin Boost feature to gamble for extra free spins
• High volatility and 50,000x max win potential
• Part of the Jackpot King network

Cons

• Max win is capped at £250,000
