The Rift was the first release from Thunderkick after an 18-month break, and with that much build up the slot found itself under quite a lot of pressure to be impressive. The last thing you want is for your first release in a year and a half to be disappointing.It seems that Thunderkick was aware of these pressures, as they went all out on theme here, creating quite the story.This story is that a strange rift has appeared and is feasting upon magical artefacts from all over the world, only you can collect these precious items before they are lost forever.
Design and theme
With such a detailed concept, there is a lot that needs to be done through the design work of The Rift, and that is exactly what has been accomplished.The backdrop shows the “murky back alley” mentioned earlier, with a gothic, black magic symbol incorporated as well, accentuated by an intense, tension-building soundtrack.Symbols here include potion bottles, pocket watches, spell books and more, and the animations are dark, edgy, and spectacular, much the same as the slot itself.
Gameplay
There are a lot of features within the base game here, and a lot of chances to pick up some nice wins, but it is within the bonus game that the biggest prizes can be picked up.In The Rift Bonus Game, the Rift seal is activated and you can advance it a total of one step for each scatter you collect. For every three steps advanced (until the seal is filled) you will receive an extra sticky wild and two extra free spins.Rift Spins are randomly triggered spins, with one to three sticky wilds, landing two scatter symbols.This game is unique, fresh, exciting, and a great return to the scene for Thunderkick.
