99.9% uptime sounds reliable, until you realise it means 8+ hours of downtime a year. For an iGaming operator, it is a business threat. One hour offline during a major promo can erase months of planning, budget, and player trust. Multiply that by eight.

Thunderkick Ignites a Dystopian Uprising in Xterminate

Latest slot from provider introduces new BET+ feature and much more

Independent slots studio Thunderkick is calling on players to join an uprising in Xterminate, its latest release.

Set in a busy, dystopian cityscape, the game presents symbols such as spray cans, robots and gas masks upon its 6×5 grid. Players must land eight or more symbols at any position on the grid for a win.

An avalanche feature sees winning combinations removed from play, with new symbols falling from above to replace them. If another win appears in the sequence, the feature is triggered again until no further wins are formed.

Xterminate sees Thunderkick introduce its new BET+ feature, which players can activate at a cost that is a multiple of their current bet. This exciting new mechanic guarantees either a winning spin or win boosts until it is deactivated, giving players more chances to win.

Once players land a win, it is multiplied by the Xterminate Multiplier that sits above the game grid. The win amount is then added back to the multiplier, accumulating during any avalanche sequence and resetting once it ends.

Charged Wilds can appear on any spin, substituting for all symbols except the bomb and carrying up to three lives. One life is consumed each time the Charged Wild is part of a win, until no more lives remain and the symbol is removed from play.

When a bomb symbol appears without any winning combinations, it explodes and protects the most common symbol on the reels as well as any Charged Wild symbols and other bomb symbols. If multiple symbols are equally common, it only protects the highest-paying one whilst removing all other symbols and triggering the avalanche feature.

Xterminate is yet another showcase of Thunderkick’s dynamic and unique approach to slot-making, with its releases consistently captivating players around the world. It follows recent releases Beat the Beast: Dragon’s Wrath and 12 Bolts of Thunder, with the provider continuing to diversify its portfolio with exciting, forward-thinking slots.

“Xterminate is a game that is certain to turn a few heads,” the Product Owner at Thunderkick, Mike Collins, said. “It can be brutal at times and it really packs a punch. With TOTALX and BET+, we’ve introduced a brand-new multiplier mechanic to the world of slots as well as additional bet modes.

“Players can expect explosive gameplay where each avalanche can reap exponential rewards. Throw some Charged Wilds and bomb symbols into the mix and it’s a recipe for an electrifying experience.”
