There’s the game’s logo, surrounded by flashing blue lightning and rendered in striking blue and gold. There are more stone temple pillars standing to the left and right of the screen for instance. On the plus side however there are some nice touches which have been applied here, helping to bring this game to life. There’s no getting away from that here unfortunately.
There’s little you can do to transform the fact that a keno game is obliged to fill the screen with loads of numbers and squares predominantly. When the game loads, you’ll find that the Greek theme has been maintained, with each numbered square on the grid hewn out of stone. The intro screen features stone temple pillars, flashes of lightning, gold spears and many other flourishes that you would associate with Grecian gods. You may also struggle to get it to work in the Chrome browser on desktop for that matter. It’s supposed to be a mobile-compatible game but you may struggle to get this to work on iPhone. Grand Vision Gaming are the developer behind Ancient Thunder. And thus we end up with games like Ancient Thunder, a game which combines keno with mythical gods. They need to think up new ways of serving the same games to us, the punters, to keep things fresh and keep us coming back for more. For the game to develop and to continue to attract new players, developers need to innovate. Keno, by default, is not the world’s most exciting game.
