Stormblitz™ Tower Feature

Prizes awarded through Collect symbols are collected from the Stormblitz™ Tower. The Stormblitz™ Tower displays 5 jackpots, 6 cash prizes, and the Bonus Spins feature prize. The number of Stormblitz™ Tower prizes awarded depends on the number of Spin and Collect symbols that appear. Cash prizes range from 0.5x to 5x the bet. Jackpot prizes range from 8x to 2,000x the bet. The Bonus Spins feature awards 8 bonus spins.

Stormblitz™ Tower Multiplier

The Tower Multiplier symbol can appear on reel 1. When a Tower Multiplier symbol appears, it increases the multiplier by 1x for a random number of Stormblitz™ Tower prizes.

Multipliers can be added to cash and jackpot prizes, as well as bonus spins. The maximum multiplier that can be accumulated on any Stormblitz™ Tower prize is 5x. Multipliers apply to jackpot and cash prizes when collected. Any bonus spins prize multiplier applies to all winning lines during the bonus spins feature when it is triggered. All prize multipliers are reset at the end of a spin after any Stormblitz™ Tower prize is awarded in the main game. Multipliers can be awarded to a random number of Stormblitz™ Tower prizes after the reset. Multipliers are not reset after a Stormblitz™ Tower prize is awarded during the Bonus Spins feature. Stormblitz™ Tower multipliers are maintained between the main game and the Bonus Spins feature.

Bonus Spins Feature

3 bonus symbols in the main game award 8 bonus spins. The reels with the Bonus Spins feature expand to a 5×5 grid with 50 paylines. The Stormblitz™ Tower, active in the main game at the time of launch, remains active during the feature.

The Tower Multiplier symbol can land and increase the Stormblitz™ Tower prize multipliers during the feature. Stormblitz™ Tower multipliers are not reset after a jackpot or cash prize is awarded during the feature. Landing 2 or 3 bonus symbols during the feature awards an additional 3 or 8 bonus spins, respectively. Bonus spins are played automatically. The same bets are used as in the spin that triggered the feature. Wins during the feature are added to wins in the main game. After exiting the Bonus Spins feature, the Stormblitz™ Tower status is transferred back to the main game.

Bonus Spins

Activating this feature awards 8 bonus spins, with +1 multipliers randomly applied to Stormblitz™ Tower prizes. Bonus spins are awarded with a random multiplier range linked to the purchase price.
Choose from three purchase options:

• Purchase 8 bonus spins with a 12x-20x multiplier for 100x the bet.

• Purchase 8 bonus spins with a 40x-48x multiplier for 300x the bet.

All purchase options use the base RTP percentage. Stormblitz™ Tower multipliers accumulated in the main game are restored after purchase. The feature cost is multiplied by the current bet size and is displayed in the game. This feature plays at the current bet. This feature may be unavailable after reaching a certain threshold. This feature may not be available in some regions.

Paylines

A payline is a series of adjacent symbols lining up on the reels. Payline wins in Thunderstruck Stormblitz are calculated from left to right, starting with the first reel. Players win when matching symbols land on adjacent positions that form a payline. The number of paylines is fixed. This game features 30 paylines in the main game and 50 in the bonus spins feature.

Payouts for line wins depend on the initial bet placed. The payout amount depends on the winning combination achieved. The total payout consists of all line wins and bonus symbol wins from the spin. If multiple winning combinations occur on a single payline, only the highest-paying combination is paid. For each symbol combination, only the highest-paying combination is paid. The payout table shows the value of a win for each possible symbol combination based on the current bet. The maximum possible win is rounded down. This is the approximate maximum amount that can be won in a single spin.
