What to expect

Step into the storm with this classic reel game

9 paylines on a 3-reel grid
This is a 3-reel, 3-row slot with a classic energy theme and a modern twist. You'll find 9 fixed paylines running across the grid, and the paytable stays visible above the reels so you always know what each symbol pays. The game launched in April 2025 and combines the simplicity of traditional reels with high volatility, meaning wins come less often but can be considerably larger. Wild symbols and free spins form the core gameplay, with fixed jackpots adding an extra layer of potential.
Best suited to classic reel enthusiasts
You'll enjoy this slot if you like classic mechanics and don't mind waiting longer between wins in exchange for bigger payouts. It suits players comfortable with bets from A$0.40 to A$250, particularly those who favour high-volatility action. If you prefer frequent small wins or find high variance stressful, this game may not match your style. The fixed jackpot system appeals to players chasing substantial rewards, though the base game alone also delivers solid returns.
How multipliers transform the bonus round
Free spins shape each round most decisively. Land the bonus symbol on the third reel and you'll trigger 10 free spins. During the feature, a random multiplier from 2x to 20x is applied to every spin's total win, including any jackpot prizes. You can also retrigger the feature by landing the bonus symbol again, which adds another 10 spins to your total. The background shifts to a darker storm sky during the feature, reinforcing the electric theme.

5 steps to spin

Ride The Lightning runs through five stages

Before your first spin, here's exactly what unfolds on the reels

  1. 1

    Before the spin: choose your bet

    You select your bet from A$0.10 up to A$250, using the bet selector below the reels. Your chosen stake stays in place until you change it, so every spin after costs the same amount.

  2. 2

    Three symbols in line?

    Three matching symbols across any of the 9 paylines trigger a win. The paytable above the reels shows what each symbol pays at your current bet. Wilds, sevens and lightning bolts all award when they line up.

  3. 3

    The base game grid

    The reels spin on the 3x3 grid and stop to show three rows of symbols. You see straight away if you've won on any of the nine fixed paylines. The paytable strip stays visible, so you know each symbol's value instantly.

  4. 4

    How Free Spins start?

    When the BONUS symbol lands on reel 3, you enter Free Spins with 10 spins awarded. Each spin during the feature applies a random multiplier from 2x up to 20x to your win. The sky turns darker storm navy as the feature begins.

  5. 5

    Before you play

    Before you begin, set a loss limit or session reminder through your account settings. Gambling Help Online and Lifeline Australia offer support whenever you need it. You can also join the BetStop National Self-Exclusion Register to pause play across all licensed venues.

How you multiply your wins

Free spins, jackpots, and multipliers

Free spins with multipliers

Land the BONUS symbol on reel 3 to start 10 free spins. During the feature, a random multiplier from 2x to 20x is picked each spin and applied to your total win, including any jackpot. Land the BONUS symbol again to add 10 more spins. The background shifts to a darker storm sky.

Start the bonus round instantly

Purchase 10 free spins for A$500 at your A$5 bet level, or 100 times your stake at any bet. The feature works the same way as triggering it naturally, with a random multiplier applied to each spin from 2x to 20x, plus retrigger potential.

Your moment to win the jackpot

Land three matching WILD symbols on a payline to win a fixed jackpot. The GRAND jackpot (500x) requires three of the same WILD type; the MAJOR (250x) and MINOR (100x) are more selective; the MINI (25x) triggers from any WILD mix. Only one jackpot can land per spin.

The base game layout

Every base game spin uses a 3-reel grid with 9 fixed paylines and an always-visible paytable above the reels. A ladder of fixed jackpots sits to the right. Three matching symbols in a line across any payline create a win. The warm maroon sky sets the scene until free spins begin.

What can't you predict about this slot?

Don't predict when free spins come

Bonus symbols land when they land. No pattern shows when Free Spins will trigger, so you can't time your session around them or count on them appearing.

One session is unpredictable

Your balance after one session depends on random outcomes, not on the RTP figure. The 96.50% return is a long-term average across thousands of spins, not a session guarantee.

Possible to reach, rare to hit

Landing the maximum win of A$2,500,000 is possible but happens so rarely that most players never see it. The ceiling exists; reaching it does not.

Ride The Lightning returns

How much comes back from 100 staked

What players ask

Ride The Lightning: your questions answered

Why does Ride The Lightning allow certain bet amounts?
+
The slot accepts bets from A$0.10 up to A$250, so you can choose what suits your session. At Monkeyzino Casino you can stake A$0.40, A$2 or A$5, or any amount between the minimum and maximum the game allows.
Where do free spins start in Ride The Lightning?
+
The BONUS symbol must land on reel 3 to trigger free spins. You'll receive 10 spins to begin with, and the BONUS symbol can appear again mid-feature to add another 10 spins to your remaining count.
Where can you buy free spins on Ride The Lightning?
+
Yes, free spins can be bought before any spin in the base game. At A$5 per spin, buying free spins costs A$500 and activates the feature directly without needing the BONUS symbol.
What happens to the RTP when you buy the bonus in Ride The Lightning?
+
The standard game returns 96.50%. When you buy free spins, the RTP shifts to 96.48%. Each figure applies only to the version you're playing—standard spins or paid bonus spins.
Where can your biggest win come in Ride The Lightning?
+
Maximum win is A$2,500,000 when you stake the highest allowed bet of A$250. At the example bet of A$5, your top possible win is A$50,000, built from the multipliers and jackpots that trigger during free spins.
How long until you see a big win in Ride The Lightning?
+
This is a high-volatility slot, so wins land less often but can be significantly larger when they do. You might spin for a while before hitting a substantial payout, especially outside the free spins round.
Before your session starts

Playing within your limits

Budget before you begin
Decide how much you can afford to spend before you spin. Set a budget that fits your entertainment spend for the session, then stick to it. Only play with money you can afford to lose.
Winning is a good time to quit
Plan your exit before you start. Decide when you'll stop playing, whether you've won or lost. Winning is a moment to walk away, not a reason to keep spinning.
Limits before spending goes too far
Deposit limits and loss limits sit right in your account settings. Use them to cap what you spend and what you're willing to lose. These tools are there to help you stay in charge.
When to take a break?
If the game stops feeling like fun, take a break. Use cooling-off periods or self-exclusion to step away. Lifeline Australia (13 11 14) and Gambling Help Online are there when you need support.
