How to play
Stake limits are set between 0.20 credits to 50.00 credits per spin. Triggering a win on the reels would require you matching symbols to form a winning combination.
On the reels are the usual traditional playing cards but this time styled with Norse patterns. Alongside the cards are shields, helmets, axes, and Thor’s hammer.
The high paying symbols are represented by three Viking banners of colours red, purple, and turquoise with the red being the highest paying symbol.
Viking Wilds Slot Special Features
Special Symbols
With up to three wilds symbols on the reels, it becomes clear why the slot is named Viking Wilds. The 3 wild symbols each offer a chance to trigger bigger payouts when landed on the reels. All the wild symbols award a key when they landed which will be added to the bonus collection meter.
The following wild symbols can be landed on the reels:
- Standard Wild – This can be collected on all the reels except reel one. It will substitute for all the standard symbols.
- Sticky Wild – This will land on reel three only. It will also replace the standard symbols on the reels.
- Expanding Wild – This will land on reels two, three, four, and five. When collected, it will expand the turn the entire reel wild.
Bonus Features
Tumbling Reels
When a winning combo is formed, the winning symbols are removed and new ones drop down to replace them. The new symbols may form new winning combinations and the entire process repeats again. This continues until no new winning symbols are formed. This is also called the cascading reels feature.
Free Spins
Landing all the wilds – standard, expanding, and sticky wilds with a single spin will fill the collection meter and trigger a round of free spins. You will be offered 12 free spins with a 1x multiplier. The reels could expand when you land an expanding wild giving you:
- 1 expanded reel – 14 spins and 2x multiplier
- 3 expanded reels – 16 spins and 3x multiplier
- 5 expanded reels – 18 spins and 5x multiplier
In the base game, you will be offered 1,024 Paylines. This expands to a maximum of 3,125 ways to win in the free spins round. This could also happen in the base game area if you’re able to land expanding wilds with a spin.
Jackpot
There is no Viking Wilds jackpot but a max win of 6,000x the stake is up for grabs.
Return to Player (RTP)
Viking Wilds slot is a high variance slot with an RTP set at 96.06%.
Verdict
Viking Wilds slot sports some interesting gameplay with tumbling reels and a possible win of 6,000x the stake up for grabs. While the base game area lacks in huge payouts, landing the free spins feature would give punters something worthwhile without having to spend a dime.
