Aftershock (also known as Aftershock Frenzy) is the title of a WMS Gaming-powered online slots game that’s fast, electric and offers unique features. First impressions are of a classic slots game, with 3 reels and traditional symbols. There are only 5 pay lines across plain silver reels, set upon a simple navy background. The soundtrack consists of what we’d describe as 80’s electro music. Playing the game uncovers surprisingly modern features, however. Read ahead for more information on the Big Bet option and the Aftershock Frenzy Bonus Feature.

Special Features
The simple 3 reels of Aftershock offer plenty of traditional symbols including ‘sevens’ presented in a range of colours, the ‘bar’ symbol, a self-titled Wild and two unique symbols: Triple Aftershock Frenzy and Double Aftershock Frenzy. The wild icon is wild for all symbols apart from Triple and Double Aftershock Frenzy symbols.
Double Aftershock Frenzy appears on the first and third reels only. When it lands on a pay line, this symbol will pay double the winning combination, and when 2 land, it will pay 4x, etc. Triple Aftershock Frenzy appears on the second reel only, and pays triple the winning combination. Hence, these symbols can be nicely rewarding when they land.
Aftershock Frenzy Feature
The bonus feature of Aftershock is a randomly activated feature; in other words, it can trigger unexpectedly during any spin that is wagered. Aftershock Frenzy feature consists of up to 7 free spins with guaranteed prizes. During the feature, any Double or Triple Aftershock Frenzy symbols landing on the centre pay line or within one position of it will trigger Shocking Wilds. This means that the triggering Frenzy symbol(s) stick and nudge to on or within one position of the centre pay line for the rest of the bonus feature.
Big Bet Feature
Players will notice an option to choose Big Bet. This feature creates a big bet wager; naturally this increases the cost but it also increases the RTP from 95% to 97%. During Big Bet spins, Double Aftershock Frenzy symbols are replaced with Triple Aftershock Frenzy Symbols on the first and third reels.
Verdict
Aftershock provides a surprisingly modern and playable game despite its classic appearance. The unique Aftershock Frenzy feature offers a unique aspect to the game that is worth checking out. Be sure to use the Big Bet feature for increase in RTP, too.
