Lightning Gorilla 2 Slot - Light & Wonder

In 2025, an absurd but viral debate set the internet alight. The question: who would come out on top in a fight between 100 humans and one enraged gorilla? The animal's raw power against sheer numbers split people online for weeks.

On the back of those debates, which were above all good fun and widely shared online, Lightning Box (part of the Light & Wonder group) pits us against the fearsome gorilla in turn with the Lightning Gorilla 2 slot. This time, the angry gorilla can unleash Lightning Respins, while the new Maximum Boltage Wheel feature triggers cash prizes, one of four jackpots or direct access to the Lightning Respin bonus, all set among wild and unpredictable fauna.

Lightning Gorilla 2 is the sequel to the original title, this time with fine-tuned bonuses and a few added twists to give it a fresh boost. Its setup and setting remain much the same: we are back in the dense jungle, home to wild animals that appear exclusively on the reels as high-paying symbols. With high volatility and an RTP of 96.10%, this slot is played on a grid of 5 reels and 3 rows with 40 paylines.

Start the showdown with the gorilla by setting your bet, which must be between 0.50 and 125 per spin. To win prizes, you need to line up 3, 4 or 5 matching symbols from left to right on consecutive reels, starting from the leftmost one. The gorilla, the panther, the sloth, the toucan and the frog can pay between 10 and 300 credits, while the royal symbols A, K, Q and J return between 5 and 40 credits. A Wild also substitutes for all symbols except the Lightning Bolt Scatter, while paying up to 600 credits.

Aside from regular payouts, the action in Lightning Gorilla 2 revolves around collecting Lightning Bolts to trigger respins, now complemented by the new Maximum Boltage Wheel, which can award fixed jackpots, instant wins or retrigger the respins to extend the action and maximise the rewards.

Lightning Bolt Scatter
Land 6 to 13 Lightning Bolt symbols in the base game to trigger the Lightning Respin feature. These Lightning Bolts carry fixed prizes between 20 and 4,000 credits, and all those present at the trigger pay out their prizes directly at the end of the Lightning Respin feature.

Lightning Respin
You start with 3 respins. Before each spin, 1 to 5 reels are randomly selected to be active (surrounded by an electric field). Only Lightning Bolts landing on these active reels are collected and reset the respin counter to 3. Once the respins run out, the prizes from the collected Lightning Bolts are added up and awarded to the player.

Colossal Lightning Bolt symbols can cover 2x2 or 3x3 positions; they split into several individual symbols and only the active portions are collected.

Maximum Boltage Wheel
When the Maximum Boltage Bolt symbol appears in the base game, it reveals a Lightning Bolt on the reels that can help trigger the bonus. By filling the wheel on the right-hand side of the screen, you can activate it.

The Maximum Boltage Wheel is activated once all 20 segments have been collected. On each spin of the wheel, you can win:

- Cash prizes.
- One of the four fixed jackpots: Mini, Minor, Major or Grand.
- A Lightning Respin symbol that launches a Lightning Respin straight away.

After each spin of the wheel, new blank positions may be added, and once a Lightning Respin triggered by the wheel has finished, the wheel spins again. Play continues until the wheel lands on a blank position, which ends the bonus once all wins have been collected. At the end, the counter resets to a random value between 4 and 10.

Jackpots Lightning
There are four fixed jackpots, with their values displayed on the left of the screen:

- Mini: 5x the bet.
- Minor: 50x the bet.
- Major: 250x the bet.
- Grand: 2,500x the bet.

The more you bet, the higher your chances of landing a jackpot during the initial Lightning Respins trigger, during a respin when a jackpot symbol lands on an active reel, or during the spins of the Maximum Boltage Wheel.

You can win more than one jackpot in the same bonus, and Colossal Lightning Jackpot symbols are able to split into individual jackpots.

Ready to take on the gorilla a second time?
For this sequel from Lightning Box, the gorilla returns stronger than ever with a new game mechanic that opens up many ways to win prizes, jackpots or bonuses. Thanks to its clever tweaks, the Lightning Gorilla 2 slot should be just as well received by the community as the original.
