Slingo Lightning Demo Slot - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Introduction

Slingo Lightning has gameplay which crosses elements of conventional online slots with that of Bingo, hence the name. This title is played on a 5x5 grid with 12 winning lines. In Slingo Lightning you play to mark off numbers in the game grid, just like you would in a game of Bingo. Each game of Slingo Lightning lasts for 8 core spins, followed by paid for spins if you choose to use them.

Watch out for the wild lightning bolts which allow you to select numbers in the grid, as well as the free spin token, which gives you an extra free spin of the reels.

Theme and Graphics

In common with all Slingo titles, core graphics are fantastic, with clear displays of numbers throughout and all items rendered to allow for optimum visibility.

The lightning theme of this title is embodied by a rather angry looking sky behind the reels, as well as lightning bolts which illuminate the screen on occasion. Similarly, crows fly across the screen from time to time.

All of these elements add together to make for a highly engaging visual experience.

Slingo Lightning RTP and Variance

Slingo Lightning has long term average RTP of 95%, which is comfortably below the average for most online slot titles. The usual average is around 96%, although Slingo Lightning is not your average online slot title. The medium to low volatility means that there should be a rather nice amount of low value wins available, even if the higher value wins are somewhat harder to come by.

 
How to Play Slingo Lightning

Before you start the game, take a moment to familiarize yourself with the game set-up, controls and functions with our simple guide:

1. The line win amounts are displayed to the left of the game board. This shows not only the progressive wins available if any number of lines are completed during gameplay, but also provides details of the top prize available for matching a full house.
2. Your bet can be changed by clicking the + and - buttons below the paytable. Amending your bet adjusts the win amounts displayed on the paytable automatically. It is important to remember that the bet amount gives you the 8 core spins, you don't pay that bet amount per spin.
3. To begin, click the spin button on the bottom right of the game board. This runs through the 8 core game spins.
4. If a lightning bolt appears, the game waits for you to click a number on the grid.
5. At the end of the core 8 spins, you can collect your winnings or choose to spin on. The amount each additional spin costs is displayed on screen. You are not obliged to take on any additional spins.
6. Please play Slingo Lightning responsibly, by setting a sensible budget for each play session. Remember that the cost of additional spins can rack up and fast outstrip your winnings. Know when to walk away, and when the fun stops, stop.

Slingo Lightning Bonus Features

The free spin symbols provide you with an extra spin of the reels. Free spins symbols only appear during the core game, not in the additional spins that can be purchased at the end of this.

Watch out for the lightning bolts on the number line at the bottom of the grid. These allow any number from the column above the lightning bolt to be selected. Look for numbers that complete or get you closest to completing a line.

Super lightning bolts allow any number on the entire grid to be marked, regardless of position. Again, use strategy to maximise the impact of this wild symbol.
