So what is "Ligntning"?

Okay, so just what does the word 'lightning' mean in relation to slot machines? Brand name? Type of game? Speed of the slot machine? As usual Fleastiff is confused.

And I hope no one here on the forum was at the Silverton last night and missed out on the Free Champagne given at the grand opening of their new Lightning Lounge which contains Lightning slots whatever they actually are.

Connected to a lightning rod? Player guesses which machine will give him a jolt?
Takes your money with lightning speed?
The machine depicts an actuary running through a maze of lightning bolts hurled by naked women wielding license plates?

Gives the casino an excuse to make a nice flashy colorful slot machine to attract players to it to suck their money dry and keep a smile on their face.

All dem slots are supposed to do dat.

I guess there are quite a few slots that have some kind of lightning theme. Lightning links seem to be popular right now for whatever reason.

Perhaps they have some special lightning bonus feature attached to all the slot machines in the room, kinda like hot seats or must hits.

All of them have the flashy light to it, but not all of them are extremely bright with colors. The ones that do are done so purposely to attract customers as they have a higher HE.

Not being there, I can't be certain, but Silverton's list of slots includes "Lightning Link," which is a machine that lets you choose one of four games (Happy Lantern, High Stakes, Magic Pearl, Sahara Gold), either with separate jackpots or a linked jackpot. From the description, "Lightning" comes from the frequency of jackpots (more smaller ones rather than fewer, but larger, ones, I am guessing).

Lightning link is a new slot type that has near misses ploppies aren't tired of yet like 7-7
7.

Or don't know they're near misses, illusion of being close.

as it is not clear everything looks. I think they should think about the design and make it look like /Casino-Games and then everything will be available and interesting. You can say more confidently.
