The grand finale, the Lightning Storm bonus game, offers the potential for truly shocking wins.

As Todd Haushalter, Evolution's Chief Product Officer, explains:

"Lightning Storm is by far our biggest, most ambitious and technologically advanced game yet. This is our fifth generation of big wheel game shows and it incorporates learnings from all our prior game shows. Our DigiWheel hardware platform is a big part of the Lightning Storm fun, not to mention the unique blend of live action, RNG and augmented reality."

The Science Behind the Storm

Lightning Storm represents a significant investment in both technology and creativity. The game showcases Evolution's DigiWheel hardware platform and combines live action with random number generation (RNG) and augmented reality.

Haushalter adds:

"And, wow, those five unbelievably varied and entertaining bonus games! Each of those alone is like building an entire game by itself. I'm in awe of this game and all the work and talent that have gone into creating it — game development, technical and math know-how, machine shop skills for the creation of the unique, retro-futuristic lab-style settings and mad machines… It all comes together so well and I feel that players are going to be blown away by Lightning Storm!"

As the online gaming industry continues to evolve, Lightning Storm sets a new standard for live game shows. With its blend of cutting-edge technology, engaging gameplay, and the potential for massive wins, it's clear that Evolution has created a storm that's set to take the gaming world by storm!
