Design

The visuals in Viking Wilds are typical comic book style and are really slick and sharp. With a backdrop of a wintry mountain that is kept watch over by a mammoth and excellent warrior. When it comes to the symbols, players can expect to come across the usual playing card Norse styled royals from Jack through to Ace, with other symbols such as the hammer, helmet, shield and axe.

These are also joined by a trio of rune stone banners. The best of the rune stones are the red ones which will players out x5 of their stake for landing five in a combination. Tumbling reels are also a feature of this slot, and the reels increase at random in size, with this boosting players chances of winning up to 3,125. Players must also keep an eye out for the sticky wilds and a great free spins round complete with expanding multipliers.

Symbols

When a player lands a winning combination, the successful symbols are removed, and new ones drop to replace them. These symbol drops keep coming all of the time wins are hit. The wilds are also centre to the Viking Wilds action and there are the following three that can appear at any time in the base game. First is the standard wild which can land anywhere except the 1st reel, and this wild can substitute for all of the standard symbols.

The stick wild can only show up on the 3rd reel and instead of disappearing after a symbol drop win it drops down one position rather than being removed from play. Finally, there is the expanding wilds which can land on the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th reels and when it does land it expands and turns the whole reel wild.

Scatters

Players will notice that there are a set of three keys on the left of their reels. Players that land a standard, sticky or expanding wild at the same time of a series of symbol drops that fill the three keys and activates the free spin feature. Players start with 12 free spins with a 1x on the standard 5×4 reels. If the player lands expanded reels on their triggering spin, the starting numbers go up as follows:

Landing one expanded reel sees players starting with 14 free spins and a x2 starting multiplier. Landing three expanded reels and players start with 16 free spins and a x3 multiplier to start. Landing five expanded reels sees players start with 18 free spins and a x4 multiplier to begin. Every time the reels expand or players and an expanding wild in one of the features the reels then increase in size with the multiplier increases by x1. The top prize that the reels offer are a massive 3,125 ways to win, this is the expanding reel feature, and this also applies in the base game.

Review of Viking Wild

I was really impressed by Vikings Wilds with superb visuals and a dominating soundtrack that is a great fit for this epic theme. The game play also matches the elegant design perfectly. The symbol drop part of the game keeps the pace of the slot moving in nicely and the extra wilds and multipliers make for some great winning potential. The variance is high and the top win from each free spin is x6,000 times the players stake.
