Pragmatic Play · 2025
Ride The Lightning is a high volatility 3x3 video slot from Pragmatic Play with 9 fixed paylines and Free Spins. This page explains how each round pays.
The demo is free. The real game needs an account and you must be 18+.
Nine symbols land on a 3x3 grid, and every spin is checked against nine fixed paylines. There is no line-count selector because the paylines never change. Ride The Lightning mixes Classic and Energy themes into a high-volatility video slot. A win needs at least three matching symbols on one payline.
A BONUS symbol on reel 3 starts Free Spins with 10 spins, and the sky turns darker navy. Each free spin draws one multiplier from 2x, 3x, 5x, 7x, 10x and 20x, applied to that spin's total win, jackpots included. A BONUS landing mid-feature adds 10 more spins. Four fixed jackpot tiers, GRAND to MINI, are won by three WILD symbols on a payline.

Not sure how a bonus starts or what a multiplier does to a win?
A BONUS symbol landing on reel 3 starts the feature with 10 free spins. On every spin, a multiplier chosen at random from 2x, 3x, 5x, 7x, 10x and 20x applies to that spin's total win, jackpot wins included. Mid-feature, a BONUS hit adds 10 more spins.

No BONUS symbol has to land on reel 3, because a purchase starts the Free Spins feature. Pay A$50 at the A$0.50 example bet, which is 100 times the bet.

Playing guide
Unsure what your bet does before the reels stop? The steps below show the order.
Nine fixed paylines cover the 3x3 grid, and you set the bet from A$0.10 up to A$250 before the reels turn.
Symbols land on the 3x3 grid, and three paying symbols on one of the nine paylines form a win, with the paytable strip above the reels listing each combination.
Three WILD symbols of one specific variant on a payline award GRAND, MAJOR or MINOR, while any mix of WILDs awards MINI, with the ladder shown right of the reels.
A BONUS symbol landing on reel 3 starts the free spins, which award 10 spins and replace the warm maroon sky with a darker navy storm-sky background.
The reels stop after every spin, and no outcome shows how a session will end, so set your budget before the first spin.
On the reels, the Buy Free Spins option costs 100 times the bet, which is A$50 at A$0.50.
| Bonus purchase | Price | RTP |
|---|---|---|
| Buy Free Spins at 100x | x100 · A$50 | – |
Each spin on the reels returns part of the stake. RTP shows how much of every A$100 staked goes back to players. The version this casino runs is shown in the game rules.

Trial Run
You will know how the demo and real-money play differ before your first stake.
The demo needs no money and pays nothing back. The real game needs a Betya Casino account and a player aged 18 or over.
Play for moneyEach spin lands on a fresh 3x3 grid, and the BONUS symbol either reaches reel 3 or it does not. How often the bonus round comes is not known in advance. Nobody can predict a session's result, because it is random whatever the RTP version of the game.
Spins on the reels run under one of two RTP versions this game offers. Which version Betya Casino runs is shown only in the game rules. Read those rules before your first spin, so you know which version you are playing.
A win on the reels can climb to x10,000 the bet, which is the highest multiple Ride The Lightning pays. That ceiling is reached very rarely, so read it as the top of the scale, not as an expected result of a session.
You must be 18+ to play. For support call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858, or register with BetStop, the national self-exclusion register.
Each bet on the reels costs money, so set a session budget before the first spin.
A big win on the reels can tempt another spin, so decide when you stop before you start.
Each spin on the reels costs the bet you chose, so set deposit and loss limits in your account first.
A run of losing spins can make the game feel less fun, so take a break or self-exclude through BetStop.

Four answers
Betya Casino puts the numbers on the table, so you can check them before you spin.
Landing the BONUS symbol on reel 3 starts the free spins, and Buy Free Spins skips that wait. The purchase costs A$50 at the top example bet of A$0.50, which is 100 times the bet. The feature awards 10 free spins, and each spin draws a random multiplier.
The reels spin at any bet from A$0.10 to A$250, and all 9 fixed paylines are always in play. The paytable figures refer to a A$0.20 bet, and this page uses A$0.40 and A$0.50 as further examples.
The reels produce random results, and the RTP is the long-run return on A$100 staked. The game has two RTP versions, 96.48% and 96.50%, and both figures describe many spins, not one session.
Each spin can pay up to 10,000 times the bet, which is A$5,000 at A$0.50 and A$2,500,000 at the highest bet of A$250. Whether a session reaches that multiple cannot be known in advance.
