The History of Lightning Dice
How Evolution Gaming extended the Lightning brand to one of the oldest gambling games in history.
Electrifying Dice
Lightning Dice was launched by Evolution Gaming in June 2019, bringing the successful Lightning multiplier mechanic to a simple dice game format. The game proved that the Lightning concept could work with virtually any casino game.
Unlike Lightning Roulette which modified an existing format, Lightning Dice was built from the ground up as a pure Lightning experience, with dice totals from 3-18 all eligible for random multipliers.
Simple Yet Exciting
Lightning Dice combines the simplicity of Sic Bo dice games with the excitement of Lightning multipliers:
- Three dice are dropped through a transparent "Lightning Tower"
- Players bet on the total (3-18)
- Before each drop, random totals receive Lightning Multipliers
- Multipliers range from 5x to 1,000x
- Multiple totals can have multipliers each round
