Riders of the Storm Review

Riders of the Storm is a truly epic video slot from Thunderkick, and the massive potential does nothing to dampen our excitement either. We were afraid that the charming lads where literally asleep at the wheels for a while, cause we haven’t heard from them in months. Little did we know that they were working on a masterpiece. This is a game that will stand the test of time for sure.

As the slot loads you’re riding right into a heavy storm, and the steampunk inspired game comes with a dramatic soundtrack and rumbling thunder. It all plays out on 5 reels, 3 rows and 243 paylines, and you can place bets up to £100 per spin across all devices. The base game benefits from 2x wild multipliers, and up to 4 fully stacked wild reels landing at random times.

In the free spins feature you get to choose 1 of the 3 characters, and play with different configurations of walking wild multipliers, volatility, potential and, of course, number of spins. There is also a Mystery options that randomizes everything. You can win up to a whopping 26,246x your stake if you choose the most volatile option.

What symbols are there?

Thunderkick literally takes you right into a massive thunderstorm here, as the reels are set against some very gloomy looking clouds. The 3 steampunk characters are the high value symbols together with the wild, and you also have medium and low value symbols here. The paytable for Riders of the Storms slot is as follows:

• Wild symbol - Pays 15x for 5 on a payline
• Captain - Pays 15x for 5 on a payline
• Huntress - Pays 12.5x for 5 on a payline
• Engineer - Pays 10x for 5 on a payline
• Ship wheel - Pays 8x for 5 on a payline
• Anchor - Pays 7x for 5 on a payline
• Hook - Pays 6x for 5 on a payline
• Card Suit symbols - Pay between 4x and 2x for 5 on a payline

What are the bonus features?

The wild symbol is a crystal ball that serves several functions in this game. It will give you a nice 15x payout if you land 5 on a payline, and per usual it substitutes for other symbols. However, it can also land with a 2x multiplier attached, which can give you some nice base game wins.

There is also a Mystery Wild Reel feature in the base game, and this can be randomly triggered on any given spin. This will give you up to a maximum of 4 reels fully stacked with wild symbols, and this can also land you some pretty solid payouts.

Free spins in Riders of the Storm

Riders of the Storm comes with 4 different free spins features options to choose from, one for each of the characters, plus a Mystery option. When you land 3, 4 or 5 compass scatters on the same spin, you’ll firstly be awarded with a win of 2x, 20x or 200x, respectively. Then, it’s time to choose your destiny, and the different options will play out as follows:

• The Engineer (Low volatility and 96.14 % RTP) – gives you 15 free spins with a 2x walking wild multiplier.
• The Huntress (Medium volatility and 96.15 % RTP) – gives you 10 free spins with a 3x walking wild multiplier.
• The Captain (High volatility and 96.14 % RTP) – gives you 6 free spins with a 5x walking wild multiplier.
• Mystery Option (96.14 % RTP) – gives you a random number of spins between 6 and 15, with a random walking wild multiplier between 2x and 5x.

Maybe you think that only 6 spins is a bit too low? Not really, cause when you land 5x walking wild multipliers, you’ll benefit from re-spins. This means that you’ll often get many more spins for your bucks here, and the potential is by far the highest when you chose El Capitano. You can also re-trigger the free spins feature with up to 33 extra spins all in all.

What is the jackpot (max win)?

While Riders of the Storm does not come with any kind of jackpot, you can still win epic payouts on this game. The max win is a staggering 26,246 times your stake, but you’ll need to trigger the free spins feature for that one (and choose the high volatility option). Play with the maximum stake of £100, and you can win up to around £2.6 million here.

SlotCatalog verdict

Riders of the Storm is a superb “comeback” for Thunderkick, after several months with no titles released. The soundtrack is as epic as the potential, and the steampunk inspired theme and characters are well balanced and fun. You might not hit the all-important free spins feature all that often, so it’s important to choose wisely when you do. We prefer the high volatility option, cause the 26,246x potential is just too tempting to turn down.

Pros

• Free spins with 4 options of wild multipliers, volatility and potential
• Mystery wild reel and wild multipliers in the base game
• Win up to a staggering 26,246x your stake

Cons

• Can be hard to trigger the free spins
