Lightning Roulette
Lightning Roulette is not a slot, but a variant of an online roulette table. The game follows the rules of European Roulette but can offer much better multipliers than its physical counterpart. Evolution Gaming are known for their live casino offerings and have become one of the top names in the business. They are renowned for making titles that either become the pinnacle of their genre or bring something completely new to the mix. Lightning Roulette manages to excel in both of these regards, offering top of the line visuals with some groundbreaking innovations to an age-old casino game.
At Kerching, we love our slots. There are hundreds to choose from, spanning from the pyramids to rainbows in Ireland. In fact, the number is so great that the market can sometimes feel a little saturated and one might get bored of playing the same format. If you're looking for something different to the usual slot experience, then we might have just the thing. Lightning Roulette is a live casino game, which means that, even though you are playing a virtual version of roulette, there is a live dealer and everything is streamed in real time. It is one of the most unique offerings available on Kerching and can be a little bit difficult to wrap your head around, so we're going to look a little closer at it now.
Visuals and Layout
As this is a live casino game, there is a visual combination here of computer-generated visuals and actual, live camera work. To start, despite the presence of the dealer, there is no physical spinning. Instead, there is a virtual wheel that will spin automatically. The studio itself is very professionally set up, showcasing a sleek layout with various shades of gold and black. The backdrop is panelled by blocks of green, red and black and displays possible outcomes of the upcoming spins. For the Lucky Numbers, the dealer will pull a lever, prompting a bolt of lightning to hit the screen and reveal the numbers. All of this is streamed with high-quality visuals and audio.
There are two types of presentation that matter here, the aesthetic qualities of the game and the actual delivering of the game from the presenter. As you will be spending the entirety of your gameplay with the dealers, they have to be both entertaining and informative about the current game. We've already looked at the high standard of Lightning Roulette's visuals, but the good news is that that the live streams are delivered to an equal level. It's clear that Evolution Gaming have put a lot of effort into the selection process, as each and every one of the live dealers does their job to the letter. They help create a very informal, friendly atmosphere and it adds a really nice aspect that you don't get in your typical slot.
Game Features and Rules
Lucky Numbers
The Lucky Numbers are the real attraction of this title and are a huge innovation for roulette in general. As mentioned previously, the dealer will pull a lever, causing lightning to strike the screen. After this, one to five numbers on the wheel will be chosen to serve as the Lucky Numbers. If you have placed a Straight Up bet on one of those numbers, then you are in for a treat. Rather than the standard 35:1 win in Roulette, you will receive a multiplier valued between 50x and 500x.
Payouts
Because of the Lucky Numbers mechanic, the payout values for wins in Lightning Roulette different from other versions of the casino game. If you land a win from a Straight Up bet, the highest paying, you will receive between 29:1 and 499:1. For Split bets, you will be awarded a sum equal to 17:1, with Street bets coming after at 11:1. The lowest paying bets are Corner and Line bets which payout 8:1 and 5:1 respectively.

Malcolm Says…
They say variety is the spice of life and if you’re getting bored of the slots on Kerching, Lightning Roulette is a great alternative for those looking for something new. There is something about the live casino format that is far more engaging than even the most graphically impressive slot games and it’s generally just a high-quality experience. The payouts are lower in the base game than standard roulette, but the Lucky Numbers mechanic can make up for it with some huge potential wins.
