Luchadora Slot – an Awesome New Wrestling Themed Slot From Thunderkick
Vera and John Casino has just added the latest Thunderkick slot Luchadora to their casino, this is a fantastic cartoon themed Mexican wrestling slot machine, the reels make up the wrestling ring (5×4 reels 30 pay lines) where 4 different wrestlers El Toro, El Rayo, El Serpiente, and El Pantera all do battle along with the La Luchadora (Underdog).
The corners of the ring are very important areas to this slot, as when any of the 4 wrestlers lands in this place they will transform into wild symbols for that spin, multiple wrestlers can land in any of these 4 positions giving lots of stacked wild symbols on the reels.
There are 2 ways to trigger the free spins bonus round, the first method is a regular 3 scatter trigger, the second method is by landing the special Lucha Smackdown symbol on reel 5 where you can win random cash rewards or instantly trigger the free spins mode.
The Luchadora slot is quite a volatile machine, so expect plenty of dead spins in the base game but also large pays when several of the reels form wins with multiple wilds granted from the corner bonuses.
The main free spins round is where the action really heats up though!

Luchadora – Free Spins Round
To trigger the bonus round you need to land 3 or more of the special Lucha Bonus symbols anywhere on the reels, this grants anywhere from 7 up to 15 free spins depending on the number of scatters that landed.
- 3 Scatters – 7 Free Spins
- 4 Scatters – 11 Free Spins
- 5 Scatter – 15 Free Spins
It’s also worth noting that the free spins can also be triggered by the Lucha Smackdown BBonus(Reel 5) in the base game too.
The main bonus round is where the wrestling action really heats up, the same mechanic of the wrestlers landing in the corners becoming wilds is still present, but the twist is that once these have landed once they will remain wild for the duration of the bonus round.
If during the bonus round you manage to turn all 4 wrestlers into wilds then the La Luchadora will also join the fight, replacing the Mystery Underdog symbol from the base game.
La Luchador is a super high paying symbol that can lead to some huge wins, especially with the number of wilds now present on the reels.
Bonus – Lucha Smackdown
An extra twist to the bonus round is the Lucha Smackdown symbol on reel 5 will change slightly during the bonus round, and can not only add extra free spins but can also transform wrestlers to wilds, which helps greatly to unlock La Luchadora.

Overall Thoughts
The Luchadora Slot from Thunderkick is an awesome release, the graphics are suitably themed and the music just fits with the game too, add in all the wrestler cheers and subtle animations and voiceovers for the big wins and you have a superbly designed slot.
The bonus round mechanic is really enjoyable, and the Smackdown adding extra free spins really spices things up, and of course with the Luchadora unlocked there is plenty of opportunity for some big wins too as this pays 5x more than the base game symbol!
One of our favourite slots from Thunderkick in a long time, one to seek out whether you decide to play for fun or real money, just give it a play!
