Theme & Design

Second Thunder drops you straight into a gloomy Nordic battlefield, and in the distance you’ll see snowy mountains, lightning, and soldiers at the bottom wielding their weapons, presumably ready for battle! Thunderkick’s artwork is clean and detailed, and visually the game looks great. It reminds us slightly of Ways of Athena and also gives off quite a strong Riders of the Storm vibe.

Above the reels, and below the game’s logo, you can just make out multipliers. These light up, along with various power-ups, as you play, and we’ll talk more about how these work and what they do in the following section of this review.

Second Thunder Gameplay & Bonus Features

Second Thunder is played on a 6×5 layout. There are no paylines, as it uses a 4,096-ways-to-win mechanic. You can bet between €0.10 and €100 per spin, and the game offers a fixed RTP of 94.20%. Wild symbols can land on all reels, and they can appear as single symbols or 2 or 3-symbol-high.

Now, at the heart of the game are three mechanics, Wild Fields, Reel Multipliers, and Symbol Injections, from the Feature Row – the moving row above the reels. If you manage to land Wilds on two or more reels, they then trigger the Wild Field mechanic. This forms a rectangular zone that transforms all symbols within it into Wilds. This rectangle can expand up to all 6 reels, meaning it’s possible to hit full screens of Wilds!

Above the reels sits the Feature Row, which can activate randomly during spins. If you play with the Bet+ Ante Bet on, it’s always on. The Feature Row always contains at least 1 Wild or Scatter symbol. It can also display multipliers of up to 10x. When it’s active, multipliers apply to any wins on their reels.

The bonus game is triggered by landing 3 or more scatters, and doing so awards 5 free games and +2 spins for every additional scatter. During the free spins bonus, the Feature Row is active on every spin, making it much easier for you to land Wilds, stacked symbols, and multipliers. Plus, if you land 3+ Scatters during the bonus round, you are awarded another +5 spins.

Bonus Buy & Bet+ Options

Second Thunder includes some Bonus Buy/Bet+ options. You can buy instant entry into the free spins bonus round for a fixed price of 75x. There are also multiple Bet+ options, including:

• Bonus Boost: Costs 1.5x and makes each spin 2x more likely to trigger the bonus.
• Bonus Boost Plus: Costs 3x and makes it 5x more likely to trigger the bonus.
• Presence of Thor: Costs 15x and guarantees an active Feature Row.
• Thunderstorm: Costs 15x and guarantees a Wild Field.
