Thunder Rock - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

Thunder Rock channels all the adrenaline and excitement of a live gig by the Thunder Rock band and their metal god lead guitarist. Who knew a 5x3 slot with 25 paylines could get so hot and heavy?

But if the audio-visuals nail the feeling of watching a live band, does the gameplay live up to expectations? Triple Cherry has got creative with the features with contract signing free spins and a base game feature that really lights it up.

Light the spotlights to land the locked wilds and respins feature which is the real power bonus in this slot. We’ll take a deep dive into the gameplay features later but look out for the Rock wild that subs in for every symbol except the contract bonus.

We found that Thunder Rock played seamlessly on any platform so you won’t miss out on the hilarious animations. We’d definitely recommend some demo mode spins to get to grips with the unique gameplay and you can play Thunder Rock and other Triple Cherry free slots at one of the best slot sites here at Slots Temple.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

For those about to spin, Thunder Rock salutes you in this on-point music themed game with brilliantly integrated bonus gameplay.

From the headbanging guitarist grinding out a riff on stage to the bodies and beer bottles that hurtle through the air in the free spins feature, Thunder Rock totally nails all the cliches of metal.

There are some clever clues to iconic acts in the picture symbols too, with a gun entwined with roses, a crown, a big black hat, Anarchy symbol and cut off denim jacket. Who might wear those round glasses with bat wings? And who does that skeleton hand belong to?

In total there are 10 game symbols including a lipstick kiss and a contract waiting to be signed and unlock the free spins feature.

Of course there’s a pounding, riff heavy soundtrack and some great voice acting from our tattooed and muscled metal star who shouts ‘Let’s Rock’ and ‘Let’s Spice It Up!’ as the reels spin.

RTP & Volatility

This medium-high volatility slot has 95.26% RTP which some players will find disappointing coupled with the relatively moderate paytable.

How to play Thunder Rock

From the moment you enter the gig through the curtain and see the stage you know the design of this slot is going to be pretty sick, and that extends to the user interface. Here’s how to get started fast:

1. Click the i switch to open up the paytable and game info. For game rules click the Menu icon at the bottom left hand corner

2. If you prefer not to listen to the sounds of Thunder Rock, click the Speaker icon to mute the game

3. Use the + and - icons to set a bet that suits your budget or go all in by hitting the Max button

4. Ready to rock? Either click the Spin button or click A to play up to 100 autospins

Remember, always play responsibly by setting a session budget and taking frequent time outs.

Bet Sizes & Paytable Wins

There’s a decent range of stakes in Thunder Rock that should appeal to most players with bets between 0.25 and a massive 2,500 credits per spin.

The paytable is pretty modest with the wild symbol paying out the biggest win of 40x your stake. Other paytable wins are as follows:

- Crown pays 16x
- Gun & roses pays 10x
- Lipstick kiss pays 8x
- Denim jacket pays 8x
- Anarchy symbol pays 5x
- Hat pays 4x

Bonus Features

We promised you a deeper dive into the game features and they don’t disappoint, combining creativity and style with some decent potential - the big wins animation is well worth waiting for.

Light the Lamps

The big power feature here is the progressive wild with respins and locked symbols that can land some brutal wins.

Here’s how it works: land a 4 of a kind win to start lighting up the 6 spotlights above the stage and triggering respins. Each subsequent win will illuminate another lamp.

The aim is to light all 6 lamps and the word ROCK above the stage. Light that up and standard symbols will turn wild and lock in place for some big winning potential.

Sign the Contract

Land 3 contract symbols anywhere on the reels to go to the manager's office and sign that big contract. You’ll stamp three contracts that can award you between 3 and 30 free spins with awesome stacks of wilds to boost your winnings.

Overall Review: Our Verdict

It’s unusual when the big base game feature outperforms the free spins but that was our experience of playing Thunder Rock. Get a good streak of respins going with locked wilds and you can earn more brutal wins than in the free spins feature.

On the other hand the free spins trigger quite regularly although in our experience you’ll play with way less than the 30 maximum free games. But what this slot really delivers on is world class player experience with top notch gameplay.

We also recommend the Thunder Cash slot demo from Ainsworth.
