Thunderkick’s extras never fail to amaze. Birds on a Wire is a cunningly stylized slot that introduces both novelties and makeovers. Whereas certain extras do resemble some features already seen, others are there to make your day.
Theme
Birds on a Wire easily calls to mind many an old-school game. For us, the first association was Moorhuhnjagd, but that’s only graphics-wise. These birds don’t get shot, mind you. They get electrified!

Features
Thunderkick introduces attractive extras, such as are wilds, scatters, dropping symbols, high voltage multipliers and Inwinity Spin®. Introducing them in order of appearance hereby:
- The fat black bird acts as the game’s wild. It substitutes for all symbols except for the scatter. The highest scatter payout is 200 credits for 5 symbols.
- The cat-in-the-box symbol acts as the game’s scatter. Lining up 3 or more of them will trigger the bonus round. 10 free spins are awarded initially, with additional 2 spins being added per every other bonus symbol appearing during the round. The maximum number of free spins stands at 34.
- Dropping symbols:
Similar to
Esqueleto Explosivo, Birds on a Wire features dropping symbols that fall from above to replace the zapped (!) birds forming winning combinations. For each consecutive win, the multiplier will go up.
- High voltage multipliers:
For each win on a drop, the multiplier increases one level. Multiplier levels in regular gameplay: 1x, 2x, 3x, and 5x. Multiplier levels in the bonus game: 4x, 8x, 12x, and 20x.
- Inwinity Spin® is the big feature. The symbol resembles a $ sign rotated 90 degrees clockwise. The mode activates when all free spins have ended without a win. The reels will continue to spin until a win is hit. A similar feature is also seen in Barber Shop Uncut.
As you can see, it can hardly be said that Birds on a Wire is featureless!
