Thor Infinity Reels

Thor Infinity Reels Features

Thor is not only the son of Odin but is also often referred to as a warrior god. Armoured with his trusty Mjolnir hammer, you need to fight your way through this game in what turns out to be quite the battle. As soon as you land, you get a sense that all is not well. The murky backdrop with human remains and discarded weapons suggest that Thor is in the middle of doing what he does best, protecting humanity.

Everything from the intense soundtrack to the high-contrast visuals adds atmosphere to the game and create a stunning looking slot. The link to the Infinity Reels feature sees plenty of moving parts and keeps the game feeling very fresh over long periods. The only niggle is the gameplay on mobile, which is not best suited to the increase in reels. When the game starts with its smaller 3×3 grid, all is well, but it can get a little lost, especially as you chase down those bonus rounds needing as many as 8 additional reels to trigger.

Games start from as little as 20c a spin, working their way up to $25 for max bets. With this, you get a max win of 6,055x your stake. Compared to the likes of Odin, this is way down, with a max win of 20,000x in that game. In fact, this is the lowest max win multiplier of any of the Infinity Reels titles.

That aside, the gameplay of Thor Infinity Reels is one of the standout features. It’s a high volatility game, so it won’t suit everyone, but it does average around 3.64 spins per hit, which is pretty good.

Infinity Reels

We’ve spoken a lot about Infinity Reels, but let’s just take a minute to explain how they work.

Thor begins as a pretty basic looking 3×3 grid. Once the game starts you need to get a winning combination which has to be completed by the furthest right reel. When this happens, an extra reel will be added to the right. It’s important to point out that unlike MegaWays Infinity Reels series, all symbols pay as scatters, so the winning combos don’t need to be adjacent.

This new reel then spins and again, if a symbol that improves the winning combination lands, the game will add another reel. This can continue for – as the name would suggest – an infinite number of times until a reel fails to improve the winning combination.

Infinity Bonus

One of the biggest lures of the Infinity Reels is that of the bonus that comes with it. You need to get 12 or more reels in play before a prize of 888x the stake amount for that spin will land.

This is one of the most lucrative spots in the game and it certainly adds to the excitement as the reels grow. The game moves pretty quick, which means that tracking is not all that easy. Ideally, Thor would clatter his Mjolnir on the RNG and ask it chill out a little. He is a man of the people, after all!

Symbol Multiplier

Multipliers are going to be what we like to call your maintenance symbols. These are the ones that aren’t going to get you rich anytime soon for the most part but are essential to keep things ticking.

All multipliers will start at 1 and then increase by 1 with every new reel that is added. No upper limit on these means that they can add up, but you need to go on a bit of a run to make some real coin from these features.

Jackpot Respins Bonus

Thor’s Mjolnir (hammer) is the main scatter symbol for the game and with it, comes some pretty big multipliers and (fixed) jackpots to boot. You’re going to need 6 of these bad boys to trigger the re-spins round and it’s here where life with this Greek God starts to get a little more interesting. Players of their MegaWays games like Hypernova, Big Bucks Bandits and Atlantis will remember.

For the bonus, the player is awarded 3 free re-spins. Hammers are held as the board starts to spin freely and create a huge number of winning outs. Each time the reels spin and reveal one or more hammer symbols, the re-spins reset to 3. Fill up any reel to unlock an extra reel. This is where all the work early doors of getting multiple reels in play starts to pay off. The more reels, the more scatters you have, meaning the more winning combinations can be made.

This is without doubt the best part of the game. Each of the hammers comes in a different colour of red, green, blue or gold and with that, a different multiplier attached (1x-100x), including the jackpot ones: 10x, 50x, 250x and 2,000x your stake amount.

There is no gamble feature at the end like you get with Giza or El Dorado, but then again, there are no Free Spins in this game.

Buy Bonus

Thor also includes a buy bonus, which allows players to enter the bonus round at a cost of 100x the total stake amount. This works in much the same way as in their Giza slot, allowing you to bypass the main game and shoot straight for the starts. The fact that it costs 25x bet more than the Giza tells of the higher volatility of the jackpot bonus compared to the Free Spins.
