Take On The God of Thunder in Thor Infinity Reels
Thor Infinity Reels is the newest video pokie from Reel Play, available in an online casino near you. The game uses the titular Infinity Reels engine that continues to grow in popularity. It follows on from Odin Infinity Reels Megaways and rightly so, seeing how Thor is Odin’s eldest son.
We put Thor Infinity Reels through its paces, and here is what we found.
Thor Infinity Reels Fundamentals
Thor Infinity Reels looks utterly different from any other pokies when it first loads. It is set on a battlefield using a 3×4 layout, which sets it apart from the opposition. Do not worry if you prefer more reels because they come and are infinite in number.
Additional reels appear each time you enjoy a winning combination, or one of Thor’s hammers makes an appearance. There is no limit to the number of reels, leading to some potentially massive payouts.
The house edge of this machine is 3.8%, thanks to a 96.2% RTP. That figure puts Thor infinity Reels in the middle of average country. However, variance is high, so ensure you have an ample bankroll to see you through the inevitable dry spells.
Bet sizes range from $0.20 to $40, with the maximum possible payout weighing in at 6,055x. We have seen bigger, but this is a decent-sized prize worth chasing.
What Are The Symbols in Thor Infinity Reels
It should not be surprising to learn all Thor Infinity Reels symbols are Thor related. Royals 9-through-aces are there, as are horns, shields, helmets, and axes. Reel Play made the payout table overly complicated for some unknown reason. You have to divide your total bet by 20 and then multiply it by the prizes shown in the table below. Why they decided on this system is beyond us; it is ridiculous.
| Symbol | Win Multiplier |
|---|---|
| 9, 10, J | 1 |
| Q, K, A | 2 |
| Horn & Shield | 3 |
| Helmet | 4 |
| Axes | 5 |
The weird payout system does not really matter because the base game payouts are low. That is until you manage to open up additional reels.
Look out for the Thor symbol because he is the game’s wild and substitutes for all symbols except the hammer. The hammer represents the scatter. Six or more of these are needed to start the Bonus Respins feature.
What Are The Bonus Features
Reel Play’s Infinity Reels engine is a bonus feature in itself. An extra reel appears after a winning spin, with another reel added if the rightmost symbol improves your win. This continues until you do not improve, then the wins are tallied up. A special bonus worth 888x is yours if you manage to reach 12 added reels.
The rest of the game is geared towards the Bonus Respins, and this is where the most significant prizes wait. Six or more hammer scatter start this Thor Infinity Reels feature. All triggering scatters become sticky and carry a cash prize worth from 1x to 100x your stake. Only blanks, cash hammers, and bonus hammers land in the empty symbols. You start with a mere three respins, but the counter resets when a new hammer lands.
Four jackpots await you during the respins feature and are worth up to 2,000x your stake! Land the following jackpot hammers to bank one of the prizes shows.
- Green jackpot hammer: 10x your stake
- Blue jackpot hammer: 50x your stake
- Red jackpot hammer: 250x your stake
- Golden jackpot hammer: 2,000x your stake
Conclusion
We have to admit that we were excited about Thor Infinity Reels due to being fans of the Marvel film series featuring the God of Thunder. While we applaud the exciting infinity reels engine, the game feels lacking overall.
There is a lack of symbols and the respins bonus feature should be exciting but is rather uninspiring despite it giving you the chance to win big. Fans of infinity reels will love this pokie; fans of Thor probably not.
