Pragmatic Play – Power of Thor Megaways – Free Slot Game

already has some solid Megaways titles in stock, but Power of Thor Megaways is hardly the most original of them. They’ve pretty much gone back to basics with this version, although the Double Wild Reel feature can be considered somewhat original. The cartoon-style graphics are solid enough, but experienced players may be shocked at the unusually low potential.

Pragmatic was always known for their highly exaggerated max-win clickbait, but they have since changed their tune. Sometimes the pendulum has to swing a little too far in the opposite direction before the happy medium of balance is found. A Megaways title with a 5,000x potential is not uncommon. However, anything less than 10,000x seems unbalanced when everything else is so disproportionate.

Bonus features in Power of Thor Megaways

The Megaways engine combines with the Tumbe Win feature to make every spin unique and unpredictable. You can play with up to 117,649 ways to win, and winning symbols are removed from the reels. New symbols are then dropped down to fill the gaps, and this process continues as long as you keep landing new winning combinations.

To help you in this regard, you have the wild symbol , which substitutes for all regular payout symbols. However, the wild can only land on the top horizontal reel, just like the special hammer symbol . The hammer takes up 2 reel positions whenever it is displayed in full view, and turns the reels below it into fully stacked wild reels.

You need at least 4 scatters that spell out the word “THOR” to trigger the bonus round. This grants you 10 free spins , but you can play up to 22 spins on a bonus wheel. Land on the green segment to win more spins. If you don’t, the bonus round will end before it even starts. You can land up to 9 scatters, combined with up to five +4 symbols, and this grants the maximum of 30 free spins.

The bonus round proceeds similarly to the base game, with one big difference. You now benefit from a progressive win multiplier , which starts at 1x. The multiplier increases by +1 for each cascading win and does not reset between spins. So it will grow indefinitely as long as the feature is running. You can also trigger the Hammer Double Wild Reel feature and win +4 extra spins if you land 3 scatters.

Crack the maximum 5,000x win and the bonus round ends immediately. If your jurisdiction allows it, you can buy the bonus round for 100 times your bet. However, this bonus buy feature is not available for UK players, but they will get between 10 and 22 free spins. You can then play for more if you have less than 22 spins, just like when the feature is triggered organically.

The 200 Spins Power of Thor Megaways Experience

After some initial wins in the base game, we decided to buy the bonus round at 0:40 in the 6-minute highlight video. The bonus round lasted quite a while and we landed more than a few big wins. You’ll have to find out for yourself how much we got away with in total by clicking the play button.

Rating Conclusion

The snow-capped mountains of Norway make a stunning backdrop for this gritty Viking title from Pragmatic Play, and overall it’s a visually appealing effort. There’s nothing too original to see here, however, except perhaps the way Thor’s hammer bores across the reels during the Hammer Wild feature. The end result, however, is a double set of the Wild reels, something we’ve rarely seen before.

There’s nothing wrong with clearing a baseline for cleansing the palate every now and then, but the potential is limited to 5,000 times your bet. Pragmatic has long been accused of exaggerating maximum profit, a criticism they have recently taken to heart. Perhaps a bit too much with this release, as Megaways titles usually offer at least double the potential on offer here. That being said, at least the win cap seems achievable, and the RTP of 96.55% is also a bit above average.

Pros

Random Double Wild Reels feature
Bonus round with unlimited win multiplier
Bonus buy option (not available for UK players)
Winnings up to 5,000 times your bet

Cons

Nice game, but not very original
