Hey Guys,

have you tried ARCADER? It's a new Thunderkick game available right onw only at Casumo i guess... AWESOME!

I was playing FLUX heavily and had some huge wins, and their new slot is again AWESOME. 2 bonus game, huge win possibility, awesome graphics...

Once more i have to say, although i enjoy NetEnt, WMS and all other brands as well, at the moment Thunderkick is the way to go... Not a single boring release!! Keep it coming!!!!

Cheers
 
had a shot

i gave it a fair go at casumo chewed through $50 without even a bonus round on 20 cent bets my biggest win was about 7 for alot of bar symbols
its not something i would play again easy went 25 spins without a win over the bet .
 
Perhaps not an earth shattering total win but the player in question was very happy still. Also, if that last spin would have had BARs instead of cherries, it would have been a massive win. Not to mention if he had entered the bonus game with the X3 or X9 multiplier!

Looks amazing! I am truly falling deeply in love with Thunderkick. Fruit Warp might just become one of my favourite slots of all time, I think. Frequent bonus games and possible big wins, what's not to love? Can't wait to try this one.
 
i played arcader yesterday , there's definitely some potential with sticky wilds in the bonus round, would be nice to see a 4 or 5 scatter trigger too, best win was over x100 for me in the bonus round with 6 sticky wilds at the end that lined up pretty well.

feels similar to twin spin but i think i prefer arcader just for the retro arcade game feel.
 
Ok. when looking that bonus round i think chance to get that is around 1:10000 .. cause there is actually guaranteed wins ?

Actually not that hard to trigger, and there are NO guaranteed wins.. - Wilds can land on top of each other, so you can have 9 spins without win, tho it happens rearly. You will need multipliers (more than 3 scatters) or 7's/BAR's to be able to get the huge wins any way, so I would say it's about average hard to trigger that bonus round.
 
@ Thunderkick

So, i already expressed i pretty much really like all their releases, and also play their games basically every session i do on either Unibet, RedBet, MrGreen, and as of late also V&J.. Would be cool to see them in more places, like Guts and CasinoLuck...
(Nudge-Nudge-Wink-Wink:D)

My absolute favorite was Birds on a Wire, but i think Flux just kicked them from their spot, and i also have a feeling Arcader might be competing for it..

Have done quite a few spins on Flux already, but only managed a few 1000 spins on Arcader yet, of course thats not enough to make a good judgement on it, but so far the feeling is good. I asked a bit and i think the variance on the two aforementioned ones is hovering on the lower end of the Medium label. But the slots have a very own way of playing anyhow, i personally really like slots that have streaky behaviour, preferably winning streaks of course:lolup: - and i found Thunderkick slots to be just that, very streaky indeed.

I have had some nasty dead patches in my sessions, but also some amazing winner streaks, and i think, if you only experienced the negative sides, you will never like it, but also not know what you are missing, thats why i tend to give most slots a proper go, and i advise all players to do so, at least before posting "opinions"..:rolleyes: Not often mistaken for "facts"

But ok, wanted to highlight a few q's and some stuff i noticed:

1: Arcader starts at 0.20, which was for me a mini-minus, why my Thunderkick Friends? i really hope you will still implement it, since i really appreciate the fact that you can spin all your other slots for 0.10:)

2: Is it still possible to reprogram some of the features, and if yes, would you consider a guaranteed feature on some of the bonuses? like, don't win so much x bet then get at least 10x or something similar? Especially on Arcader and Barber shop that would be nice, since they seem hardest to hit.

Just asking this since i noticed it can be really hard to trigger some bonuses, nothing like the average i am used too from other providers (talking general medium variance slots)

3: if the answer to 2 is yes, would you consider redoing the bonus-sticky wilds, so that they either can't go on top of the same field, or instead, when they cover the same field, have a little coin awarded for the bummer instead (like 1 x bet or 2...)
I am asking this because i know many players have a gripe with pretty useless, often anticlimactic features, like this, or in comparison for instance TSII Loki feature where it puts wilds on top of other wilds, or the Troy which puts the multiplier wild over the regular..

I am only proposing this as since you are a newer and smaller company, you might be open to such suggestions, and could gain a lot of popularity, by listening to your players, and taking away such, to most gamblers, annoying little things.

Other then that i only have praise, i think you are the most promising/best new slots provider currently active, and that said, i was already impressed with Yggdrasil and Play&Go really, so you impressed me a lot...

Here is a screenshot from my Arcader try-out so far, and it's a basic line hit which came accompanied by one of the most awesome win animations/sounds, i have experienced so far in all my slotting, even better then my favorite WMS:D

Can you tell me what the full board of Bars would have paid?
Thanks for your input so far and many thanks for your excellent slots!
Keep up the great work!

Thunderkick... U know of any danish casino's that will be getting your slots in the near future? some of them looks really cool love to play them :)

The Danish gambling market is under Danish jurisdiction for which, at the moment, Thunderkick do not possess a license (we operate under LGA license). We might enter Denmark in the future though. Keep your eyes open (or pick a .com casino if possible).

We are constantly reviewing what bet levels we should have for each game and we have actually changed it before due to player feedback. For now though, Arcader will stay at 0.2 EUR as minimum bet.

2: Is it still possible to reprogram some of the features, and if yes, would you consider a guaranteed feature on some of the bonuses? like, don't win so much x bet then get at least 10x or something similar? Especially on Arcader and Barber shop that would be nice, since they seem hardest to hit.
No, is not possible to reprogram the game mechanics due the game already being licensed and in operation. Only under special circumstances can such a task be undertaken.

3: if the answer to 2 is yes, would you consider redoing the bonus-sticky wilds, so that they either can't go on top of the same field, or instead, when they cover the same field, have a little coin awarded for three bummer instead (like 1 x bet or 2...)

But the answer was no :). Clarification: The sticky wild is both a blessing and a curse. If you have a bad wild run, try for a better one in the future. Not everything can be positive, not even in a bonus game.

I am only proposing this as since you are a newer and smaller company, you might be open to such suggestions, and could gain a lot of popularity, by listening to your players, and taking away such, to most gamblers, annoying little things.
We appreciate constructive feedback and try to do our best to improve upon future experiences based on such feedback.

Can you tell me what the full board of Bars would have paid?
A full board of bars pays 15 x 20 =300 x bet in the base game and 300,900 and 2,700 in the bonus game depending on the active multiplier

See in quote answers.

Barber Shop has "Inwinity Spin", so you are always guaranteed a win on that slot since it spins until you win. Personally I think this is a much better feature than bonus guarantee that WMS have on some slots.

I just tried to load Flux on CasinoRoom and it worked just fine. Hard to tell what the issue might be for you. I suggest clearing your browser cache (just the cache, the history and other settings can remain) and try again.

We are already working on the next few titles that are due early next year. In the meantime, try your luck at Arcader, Flux or any other game from us you might fancy.
 
ive tried a few things

i gave flux and arcader a decent shot flux was decent and arcader looked good just had many crap sessions on both im still a huge fan of
sunny scoops had a 1000x bet win from 20 cent spin or close to. ive tried clearing the cache you games work fine for me at every other casino they loadup at casinoroom but just don't tick over to the actual play the other brand games there work without a glitch its a shame i love the games but need more places i can play in aud. glad to hear theres more games coming have you thought of a 4 play option for sunny scoops kinda like what microgaming did with mega break the bank that would be cool even chuck in a feature where if you get 3 right scoops in every window you get "'super free games where all four get the games ?
i saw a aristocrat machine like that and thought this would be mad with thunderkick games even four different games at once?
 
Hi there,

no... But believe it or not, i was not always unlucky with them... Fruit Warp has given me some of my biggest wins, and i just love not only the graphics, but also the bonus games.... Let's take Bork the Berzerker... I played lots of games with expanding wilds, but they just made it more exciting...

Tastes are different. I can personally NOT understand why people still praise MG after they onld released bullshit the last 2 years... But that's what it is, tastes are different.

I also can't believe that everyone bashes NetEnt for every game although i think they have awesome releases.

Most importantly i KNOW that every slot pays out a percentage back to the player, and i don't always rate a slot just if i have won or lost on it...

Long story short, i don't work for Thunderkick, but if they need someone i'll hop on the next plane... chchch

you work in Thunderkick ?, because I can not believe how you can like them.
nice graphics but that is all....
 
I played Arcader yesterday for about 250 spins. I had a streak of no wins for 27 spins in a row, but in the end I ended up with just a slight loss. It's a nice looking game and a cool concept.
What really disturbs me though is the voiceovers. Hearing "Nice" when you get the initial bet back is just wrong. And getting a "Great" when you win 6 SEK on a 5 SEK bet makes me want to punch the screen.
 
Any one played the game bubble craze from IGT I do not now if new but it is to a few sites I play, min 50p bet but it is addicted, Addicted lol I didn't think you could get addicted to fruit machines :)

With the thunderkick games I only played sunny scope and it wiped me clean

She wouldn't take kindly if she heard you say that! But don't worry, we won't tell her.

You refer to my screen as "her"?
If you mean the female voiceover, it's not her fault. I have no problems with the actual voiceover, it's the implementation of that voiceover that bugs me. Should I be celebrating getting my bet back? If that is the case, it's something very wrong with the payout. The same as launching an over the top Big Win on a x15 win. Tells you a bit on what to expect from the game...

We will take your comment into consideration. We certainly don't want anyone to break their screen (or fist) playing our games.

My 2 cents.

I like the sounds but I found the graphics awful to the extent it made my eyes strained.

Playwise the game was pretty average too, but I just don't seem to have any luck with Thunderkick games. I generally give them a go when they first come out, but rarely play again and this one falls into that boat.

I couldn't agree more on this. Games are now giving 'Big Win' animations on only a 10 X stake win. 10 X is not a big win it is (or should be) a regular win, i want the animation on something that will improve my balance not just put it back where it was 30 seconds ago. And on Arcader we don't want to hear Great or Nice all the time just when something actually is Great or Nice.
 
I think I am in love with this game.....shhhhh Nobody tell Gemix I am cheating on her.

To think only a few short months ago I thought Microgaming was the beginning and end of all casino games online.

NetEnt was an eye opener
Play n Go was my puppy love
Thunderkick has me revved up and ready for more!
 
Had a go on this on freeplay, I like the fact someone else decent is making slots :)

First impressions are good I have to say. I really like the graphics and sound and theme. The bonus rounds work well also. I am finding it very hard to trigger the bonus rounds on autoplay but I am probably just running bad.

My piece of constructive criticism is the same as quite a few others in this thread. Please for the love of god stop saying BIG WIN when its something lame. I triggered the mystery bonus round for a grand total of 16x bet which I felt was probably pretty unlucky. The slot still shouted BIG WIN!! at me. Erm, I don't think so. It feels a little patronising that really - you are not going to fool anyone into thinking they got a big win without actually giving them one!

I like this slot overall though, and I am very impressed with Thunderkick in general.

Whats the RTP on it?

Glad you enjoy the game. The RTP is 96.1%. The player will trigger a big win presentation at 15xbet, Mega win at 50xbet and Ultra win at x100. We think that x15 is a big win but of course that is a subjective stance. We usually adopt the win levels for each particular game and we will take your comments into consideration in the future.

Cheers from Thunderkick!
 
I made a deposit today and played Arcader for real money. It was quite fun and I broke even over a long session. Had a good mystery round where I got all the bigger paying symbols.

A good part of the reason I knew about this game and decided to play it for real was this thread and the fact Thunderkick are nice and responsive on here so thumbs up from me.

(but lol 100x is not an "ultra win" that's 1000x!! - although thanks for sharing the different trigger levels)
 
I normally turn off the sound when playing slots but THIS - I can not get enough. I never played a slot only because of the sound - this is the first. Thunderkick please don't develop relatively bad paying slots with such a great music! :what:

:lolup:

It's a great slot, and i fully agree on the fact that the music/sound is enough to be wanting to play it:)
 
definitely lot of big win potential but as has been mentioned largely after hitting 4/5 scatters.....IMO a game like this is for extra money and not for completing WR...:thumbsup:
