Thunderkick strikes again with bowling bonanza Split Happens

Stacked Walking Wilds and Power Reset feature deliver 3,000x win potential

Independent slots studio Thunderkick has unveiled Split Happens, the latest addition to its product portfolio that combines a quirky bowling theme with Walking Wilds and respins to provide a unique and compelling gaming experience.

The action takes place across a classic 5×3 grid, where winning combinations can be formed both ways to help unlock 3,000x maximum wins.

Base game action is enhanced by Walking Stacked Wilds, which award a minimum of two respins whenever reels two, three or four are filled with bowling pin Wild symbols. Wilds are transformed into Stacked Wilds and move one position toward the outside of the reels with each respin, boosting wins until they leave the grid.

If a Walking Stacked Wild lands on reel three, the Split Happens feature is triggered, cutting the icon in half and placing a Stacked Wild on both reels two and four before respins commence.

The bonus round is activated when three bowling ball scatters are collected in the bonus meter, with five Free Spins awarded. During the feature, a multiplier remains in place above the reels, which increases by 1x with each respin and is applied to all wins featuring a Stacked Wild.

Every time a Stacked Wild lands, the Power Reset feature resets the Free Spins counter to 5, while retaining the existing multiplier to significantly increase wins.

Split Happens is a vibrant addition to Thunderkick’s constantly evolving product portfolio that showcases the provider’s distinctive approach to game creation, leveraging its best-in-class production team to deliver immersive and entertaining gameplay.
