zap attack theme, stakes, pays & symbols

The question of whether we are alone in the universe – or not – has been asked repeatedly for as long as humans have walked the earth, but it seems to come into focus more strongly every couple of decades or so. We’re currently going through a “hot” phase due to the US government declassifying their files on UFOs – now being called UAP – but we still lack any definitive answer to the overall question. I can’t help but wonder what will happen to all alien-themed slots, such as Alien Fruits, Reactoonz and the like if they ever do show up and start causing problems for humanity! Will we still look at aliens as friendly, human-like creatures of the kind pictures in Zap Attack? I guess that only time will tell on that one!

Now for the real question of the day – how much can you win when playing this machine? The most valuable regular symbol is the alien, but he’s only worth up to 10x the total bet for a full payline of five of a kind. Don’t feel too disappointed by the headline figure though – the multiplier wild reels can boost that number by up to 125x, and the symbols also appear in stacks rather than singles, making it much more likely that you will win on multiple paylines simultaneously. The ranger is the next most valuable item on the table, with a payout of 5x for all five symbols, followed by the waitress at 4x, the grandma at 3x, and the miner at 2x. That just leaves the royals – five aces or kings will get you 1.5x your bet back in winnings, whilst the queens, jacks, and tens only pay 1x or even money. 

Thunderkick games used to include a quick bet selection screen, but the developer seems to have done away with that part of their design in recent years. Instead, pressing the stake button will open a menu with various betting options. There are minimum/maximum permitted stakes of €0.10 and €100.00 per spin respectively, with the usual caveat of fairly limited options towards the upper end of that range.

base game & modifiers

There are a couple of aspects of Zap Attack! which feel a little different to the average modern video slot. For example, the game uses a 5x5 reel set – much larger than the traditional 5x3 layout – yet still only includes 25 fixed paylines. Thankfully, Thunderkick has made sure to group the game symbols together into stacks on all five reels, ensuring that you won’t end up hitting endless dead spins due to this unusual configuration.

During base gameplay, landing three or more scatter symbols will trigger a set of free spins. The number of triggering symbols determines the number of spins awarded – three scatters will grant you seven spins, whilst four or five scatters increase this to 11 or 15 spins, respectively.
