Golden Thunder Slots
Cayetano Gaming is back once again with what looks to be yet another great slots release. Golden Thunder is a 5-reel 20-payline slots machine focuses on a theme centred on Ancient Greece. It’s a visually appealing game without a doubt, which gives players the chance to win big without spending too much. While it may not be the best jackpot in town, it still offers a pretty good 10x your base line bet. Putting it simply, the game isn’t ever going to be bankroll busting, but that isn’t to say that it doesn’t have the power to entertain.
Bringing the thunder and showering players with gold, this game is without question going for it all, as it looks to shoot up the casino portal charts. Putting its best foot forward, will Golden Thunder prove to be a new Cayetano Gaming flagship title?
‘Greece’ the reels
Golden Thunder has quickly become one of the most surprising slot games we’ve seen in a long time. It’s easily on par with other top games such as Mor Chilli and Little Pigs when it comes to surprises. There are occasionally slot games that crop up that are really surprising; this is certainly one of them. Despite having very few expectations about this game it proved to be very fun to play. It’s a well-polished game with some good features, including stacked wilds, expanding wilds, and the chance to win free spins.
Taking a trip back in time
As you’re no doubt aware Golden Thunder is a game centred around Ancient Greece. Perhaps it would be more accurate to say that it is centred around Greek God of Thunder Zeus, who can be found all over this slot machine.
As a result, the symbols of the game are fairly stereotypical and predictable. The main symbol is the big man Zeus himself, as he’s worth the most money. You’ll also find a Zeus’ crown of golden leaves, his thunderbolt, a golden chalice, and a silver coin amongst the game’s symbols. The other symbols in Golden Thunder are the typical high playing ‘cards’.
Low pay, low play
Players can make a bet ranging from just $0.20 per spin to the highest bet, set at $200 per spin. This is a relatively cheap slot machine to play as a result. You can earn free spins in Golden Thunder too. They are triggered when you manage to get three or more free spin icons. It’s hard to miss them, as they are basically just boxes that have the words “free spins” written on them. You can win up to 45 free spins at once and the free spin adds a multiplier of up to 15x to your winnings. A combination that would be worth $100 could be worth as much as $1500 as a result.
The great gods of Greece
The expanding wild in the game is brought about by a full-bodied Zeus symbol. It’s called an expanding wild because it takes up an entire reel and can become any symbol in the game, with the exception of the free spins icon. The regular wild symbol is just a headshot of Zeus. A wild appears when you summon a storm in the game. They are weaker than the expanding wilds, but can still become any other symbol in the game, once again except for the free spins icon.
Raining Golden Thunder!
Golden Thunder is one of the cheaper slot machines out there in the market, but that doesn’t mean that it doesn’t have the power to reward. It comes with two sets of wild symbols and also brings in a free spin bonus round as well for good measure. Just that would be enough to consider it a great game, with it not being all that bad graphically either.
Where the game is let down is within its payouts. It’s cheap to play because you don’t win very big payouts, that is the real heart of the matter here. Even though the game does have a 97.82% average payout rate, it probably won’t be enough to win over the high rollers.
The game is definitely fair and no one is going to argue that, but you’ll never win any big money with Golden Thunder, no matter how fair the odds are or how good the game is. Putting it simply, this is a great pick up and play title for fun purposes, but it isn’t likely to make you rich any time soon.
