If you want to add a little voodoo magic into your online gaming in the hope of increasing your chances of winning, this slot from popular game developer Novomatic could be your lucky charm. As online slots go, its theme is pretty creepy, but the play is straightforward, with no tricks or spells.ย 

Game Overview

Thunder Cash: Voodoo Magic has a return to player (RTP) of 95%, five reels, and 243 payout combinations, and is a high-volatility game. Its voodoo-inspired symbols include rattles, or assons, a cluster of bottled potions, tarot cards, and a pair of very creepy voodoo dolls, one male and one female. The witch is perhaps the least scary of all โ€“ nothing like the old crone you might expect. Instead, sheโ€™s a voluptuous, sultry-looking, raven-haired beauty in a pointy hat. Players might get a hint of her powers, though, from the shrunken head on top of the stick that she carries.

In addition to these symbols of the occult are the traditional card symbols 10, J, Q, K, and ace.ย 

How To Play

Interestingly, this game has no single payline but 243 possible combinations for a win. Players need three matching symbols from left to right, but they can be in any position as long as theyโ€™re on adjacent reels. The witch is the wild but appears only on reels two, three, and four. The witch can stand in for other paying symbols with the exception of the scatter coin, which can trigger wins regardless of the win line pattern. The coin has the highest value, and landing the required number of coins across the reels activates the gameโ€™s lock and spin feature.

Graphics

The graphics in Thunder Cash: Voodoo Magic are representations of the dark art of voodoo and include the traditional rattles known as assons, a selection of potion bottles, tarot cards (though this seems to be mixing the gameโ€™s magic metaphors a little), and two voodoo dolls, one of each gender.

When thereโ€™s a win in the lock and spin feature, lightning bolts animate between the coin and your treasure chest, where you see your wins accumulate. The music is moody enough without intruding on the game, and sound effects include the occasional satisfying “ka-ching” thatโ€™s associated with a big win โ€“ but donโ€™t be deceived; this happens randomly during the game.

If you love Thunder Cash: Voodoo Magic and revel in the supernatural and all its spellbinding visuals, another game with ghoulish graphics is Ritual Respins, but if youโ€™re looking for some magic without the darker aspects, Wizard’s Wand Money Up is definitely more “Harry Potter” than hair-raising, with some fun, more lighthearted versions of the masters and mistresses of the dark arts.

Features

The main feature of this game is the lock and spin feature, which is triggered by landing six or more scatter coins across the reels. These coins, each with a dollar amount stamped on them, then stay in place, and the game gives players three additional spins. Each time another coin lands, it sticks, and the respins are reset back to three until players are all out of respins or the reels are entirely covered in coins. This needs a special kind of alchemy along with a good luck potion since outcomes on all slots sites are determined by random number generators (RNGs) and algorithms. And, if you donโ€™t manage a full house, the game pays out according to the total value of the coins that you landed.ย 

Bonuses and Jackpots

Thunder Cash: Voodoo Magic offers players the chance to win real money slots if they land the Grand Jackpot, which triggers when you cover the reels in coins. If youโ€™re a fan of jackpot slots, in addition to the grand prize, this game offers mini, minor, or major jackpots. The mini is worth 10x your stake, while the minor is a decent 50x. To make things more exciting, the major and grand prizes are progressive. The major may appear at any time, but the grand is only up for grabs when players land full scatter coverage of all the reel positions.

Similar Games

If you especially like the sticky wilds in the lock and spin round of this game, try Call of the Wild from Inspired Gaming, which uses the same mechanism. If you want to combine online casino games and slots all in one, try Globe Roulette, another Novomatic slot. Included in their portfolio, youโ€™ll find Chilli El Toro, a red-hot Mexican-themed slot with over 7,000 paylines. And, if you enjoy Thunder Cash: Voodoo Magic, the series includes Charming Lady, Fruity Fruit, and Sizzling Hot.
