Play Lightning Storm Live

Lightning Storm is Evolution's high-voltage take on the live game show, and it arrived in July 2024 as one of the most ambitious titles in their live casino range. Picture a mad-scientist's laboratory: crackling cables, blue lightning haze, and a host spinning a giant digital wheel. You will find it in the live casino section here at Betano.

The game runs off the DigiWheel, a 39-segment digital money wheel. Each round, the host spins it, and you are either paid an instant win or pulled into one of five bonus games. Before the spin, 20 bonus symbols are scattered across the numbered segments at random, with some carrying extra multipliers between 2x and 50x. With 19 of the 39 segments in play for bonuses, a feature lands roughly every other spin. It plays high volatility, stakes start from just 10p, and the top prize is a 20,000x max win in the headline Lightning Storm round.

What sets it apart is the variety and the say you get in the outcome. Five bonus games (Hot Spot, Monster Mash, Battery Charger, Fireball and Lightning Storm) means sessions rarely play out the same way twice, and several of them ask you to make a choice rather than just watch the wheel turn. Pair that with a flexible set of betting options, from single numbers to the Storm Chaser and X Chaser group bets, and you have one of the deepest live shows Evolution has built.

Read on to learn how to play Lightning Storm Live at Betano Casino and discover the impressive bonus features that deliver big wins to lucky players.  

The DigiWheel is the gateway to all the five fabulous bonus games in Lightning Storm. The DigiWheel is a vertical money wheel with 39 segments. There are numbered segments (1 to 20) on the wheel with black backgrounds. Then, there are 19 leaf segments, which have blue backgrounds. The leaf is the Evolution logo. 

At the start of the DigiWheel game, 20 bonus symbols are randomly assigned to the numbered segments. If the DigiWheel stops on one of these bonus symbols, one of the five bonus games will unlock. 

The betting phase of this game gives players a variety of options. The betting table is at the bottom of the screen and looks like a roulette table. You can place your chips on any of the 20 individual numbers, but you also have the following options: 

• All even numbers. 
• All odd numbers. 
• All leaf segments. 
• Storm Chaser (automatically places a bet on each Lightning Storm bonus symbol).  
• X Chaser (places a bet on all places with a multiplier). 

You must have sufficient funds in your account to bet on these options. You can top up your account by going to the cashier section. If you haven’t already created an account with us, you can open one by clicking the ’Sign Up’ button. Lightning Storm can be found in the live casino section of the Betano site.

There are no paying symbols in the traditional slot sense. Instead, each segment of the DigiWheel carries its own payout based on the odds of landing there, and the bonus games layer multipliers on top. Here is how the main bets pay.

Lightning Storm's five bonus games are the real draw. Each is triggered by landing its symbol on a numbered segment you have backed, and each carries its own multiplier ceiling. Here is what each one offers.

Hot Spot 

This game features a giant multiplier board. The multipliers on the board are in a 9x12 grid layout. The multipliers are grouped by value, with the highest multipliers forming a ‘Hot Spot’ in the middle of the grid. 

If a multiplier is won in the DigiWheel round, it will be applied to all the multipliers on the Hot Spot board before the round begins. Then, the multipliers are hidden and shuffled. Your task is to choose a tile where you think your preferred multiplier will be.  

The multipliers are revealed, and a 3x3 multiplier area travels around the board. When it stops, it doubles the multipliers underneath it. This can increase your maximum win by up to 10,000x.   

Monster Mash 

You can build a monster in this fun-packed game. You’re presented with a cylinder that contains three horizontal reels. The top reel is for the head, the middle is for the torso, and the bottom is for the legs.  

Each of the body parts will have a random multiplier assigned to it. There are two types of multipliers: regular multipliers, which add to the existing multiplier, and global multipliers, which multiply the existing multipliers. 

The host pulls a lever to spin the reels. The reels stop on various body parts, and you are awarded multipliers from each reel.   

Battery Charger 

In this game, the host spins a mini wheel to activate the battery conveyor belt. There are ten batteries in total. Nine of them have regular multipliers, and one has a global multiplier. The global multiplier doubles all the other multipliers. 

The mini wheel determines what happens to each battery as it drops from the conveyor belt. If the mini wheel lands on red, the battery will explode. If it lands on green, with a regular multiplier, the regular multiplier value will be added to the other multipliers. If it lands on green with a global multiplier, the remaining battery values on the conveyor belt will be doubled. 

Fireball 

In Fireball, a ball is launched into an enclosure that contains 149 pockets. The pockets are either regular or double multipliers. If the ball lands on a regular multiplier, you’re awarded that multiplier and the game ends. If the ball lands on a double multiplier, all the regular multipliers are doubled, and the host relaunches the ball. 

Lightning Storm 

This game offers the chance of a max win of 20,000x your bet. The game is a massive neon billboard comprising eight regular and three global multipliers.  

You can choose one of three lightning strikes. That strike’s multiplier will be the one you receive at the end of the round. The lightning strike will hit and move around the board, stopping on one or several values. You will receive the total multiplier generated by these stops.   

A quick word first: the wheel result is random every single round, and no betting pattern changes the odds. These pointers are about understanding your options, not beating the game.

Know what each bet covers. The Leaf bet pays a flat 1:1 and carries the highest return figure, while the numbered, Storm Chaser and X Chaser bets are the routes into the bonus games and the bigger multipliers.

The bonuses are the headline. Instant wins on the base wheel are mostly modest, so the variety and the bigger multipliers live in the five bonus games, with the Lightning Storm round topping the lot.

The group bets cover more ground for more cost. Storm Chaser and X Chaser save you placing lots of single bets, but they raise your stake per round, so weigh that against your budget.

Set a deposit or time limit before you start. High volatility means quiet stretches between the standout moments are completely normal.
