Latest slot combines Scatter Pays mechanic, Avalanches and Exploding Wilds
Stockholm, 22nd May 2024 – Independent slots studio Thunderkick has launched its latest release King of the Party, which couples feature-rich gameplay with eye-catching visuals to deliver an entertaining player experience. Lions, hyenas, lynx, lizards, and pigs reside on the reels, each stylised with retro sunglasses and sporting various items of jewellery. These animals represent the mid to high-paying symbols, with the Savannah’s apex predator being the most lucrative. Thanks to the ever-popular Scatter Pays mechanic, wins are awarded when eight matching symbols land anywhere on the 6×5 reel set. Each win triggers an avalanche, where contributing symbols are replaced with new ones, giving players the opportunity to land multiple wins with the same spin. With every winning combination, the global multiplier displayed beneath the reels is increased by one. Additionally, if winning symbols show an Overlay Multiplier, all values are accumulated and added to the global multiplier, with the entire payout multiplied by the new larger value. The excitement reaches a crescendo in the Bonus Game, which is triggered when three or more Scatter symbols – represented by a gold record – land anywhere on the grid. The existing global multiplier carries over into the Free Spins feature, where Exploding Wilds are also introduced. Any Wild not contributing to a win will explode, thus removing all symbols on the same row and column, in turn triggering a new avalanche.
King of the Party is the latest release to include both the Feature Buy – in permitted markets – and Bet+ options, affording players the opportunity to take control of their gaming experience. The former guarantees entry to the Bonus Game, while the latter enhances the potential of triggering the feature. King of the Party emphasises Thunderkick’s commitment to providing the ultimate gaming experience, showcasing the provider’s unique approach to gameplay and attention to detail. It is the latest addition to Thunderkick’s evolving slot portfolio, following the popular releases of Xterminate and the highly anticipated sequel Midas Golden Touch 2.
Mike Collins, Game Product Owner at Thunderkick, said: “We’re delighted to announce the release of our new game King of the Party, which we’re sure our players will love. It once again boasts the popular Bet+ feature, giving players more control over their gameplay, as well as the Scatter Pays and Avalanche mechanics, which are proven fan-favourites. “The design team has done exceptional work with the graphics to provide a vivid visual experience, while the seamless transitions and catalogue of features ensure an optimal experience from a gameplay perspective.”
