Wrath of Thor Hold & Win Slot

Features and Gameplay

There are quite a bunch of special features to look forward to so hang onto your slots hat. The wild is the symbol with the “Wild” on it. It subs symbols adjacent to it except the Yellow, Mini, Minor, and Major symbols.

It only appears on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5. The Stacked Mystery Symbols replace any random symbol on the reels. The Nudging Multiplier Wild Reel only lands on the 3rd reel.

Thor will nudge up and down the reels even if stacked partially. A full Thor wild reel awards multipliers of 2x, 3x, 5x, 8x, or 10x. Note that the wild reel does not offer a payout but merely a respin.

Then there’s the Hold and Win Bonus. You need 6 or more scatter symbols to launch the feature. The bonus symbols will lock in place whilst they award you respins.

If you successfully lock all 15 symbols on the reels you will the Grand Prize.

The bonus round ends when you no longer have any respins. Or, when you’ve locked all 15 symbols on the reels. The rewards for the Mini, Minor, and Major symbols are as follows:

• If you lock the Mini symbol you’ll win $243.75 at an average bet of $16.25.
• The Minor symbol pays $487.50.
• The final symbol the Major pays as much as $3,250.

Bonus Buy

Wrath of Thor Hold & Win does not have a feature buy option. The best way to try and unlock the Hold and Win Bonus is to play it with free credits.

Graphics, Sound and Symbols

With gorgeous visuals and an earsplitting soundtrack, the game pulls you right into it. It’s also a stark reminder of the epics of yesteryear.

Admittedly, we prefer this Thor because we think this is how a mythological Thor would have looked like. The high-value symbol is Thor’s Hammer, Hammer, Horn, and Shield.

The minor symbols are card suits that look like stone ruins. The premium symbol is Thor’s Hammer which pays around 4x the stake for 5.

Payouts, Betting Range, and Jackpots

The jackpot is 5,000x, if you play it for the maximum stake you can win $400,000.

Casual players can play the slot for $0.25 per spin. The betting range is not as wide as that of Sherlock and the Mystic Compass. For some weird reason, Nucleus Gaming does not include the RTP in the package.

Yet, we believe the average RTP of all their games ranges between 94% to 96%. The RTP of Thors Wrath Hold and Win should be in the region of 95%.

And the hit frequency is around 1/4 or 25%. You’re looking at a payout on every fourth spin.

 

Final Verdict: Wrath of Thor Hold & Win Slot

When we tested the slot at the max bet of $80 we had little success. That doesn’t mean that the potential is not there. The point is, you’ll have to burn a lot of money which can be risky.

We reduced our bets to $10 per spin with better results. The volatility is not as severe and our biggest win was 5x our stake. The online slot has enough in it to keep you busy for a while.

Before you play it make sure you test it in free mode and choose the right online casino. Wrath of Thor Hold and Win slot is a strong package and an excellent time-winding slot.

A worthy alternative is Sherlock and the Mystic Compass. The starting multiplier in the free spins can be as high as 3x. It has 4x progressive jackpots and a standard jackpot of 3,335x the stake.

Talking of starting multipliers in the free spins, Rags to Witches from Betsoft comes to mind. It has a progressive jackpot and a sublime free spins bonus round.
