Game Symbols
The Vikings online slot introduces a collection of 10 symbols, among which 5 are classified as low-value symbols: 10, J, Q, K, and A. These symbols, crafted from steel and adorned with bloodstains, contribute to the game's gritty atmosphere. On the other hand, the series' 4 characters take the spotlight as high-value symbols, forming stacks that appear on the reels during both the main game and free spins mode.
The Vikings logo in the form of the letter 'V' stands out as the most lucrative symbol in terms of payouts. Additionally, the slot incorporates Raid Spin shield symbols that can emerge on reels 3, 4, and 5 during the main game, triggering the Raid Spins feature.
An intriguing aspect of this slot is the absence of a Wild symbol, which could have potentially been utilised as a bonus symbol instead.
Hotspot Feature
During the base game, Vikings has a Hotspot feature that highlights the middle reel. If a full stacked symbol lands on the hotspot, it triggers all other character symbols on the reels to transform into the same symbol and award a scatter payout.
Shield Wall Feature
Randomly appearing on the reels, the Shield Wall feature generates a wall of shields. Once the shields vanish, the spaces beneath them will display the same high-paying symbol.
Raid Spins
A roll on the reels of 3 or more Raid Spin shield symbols activates the Raid Spins bonus feature, where the player receives 7 free spins. During Raid Spins, the game turns into a play area with 7 reels, 5 rows, and 78,125 bets. The hotspot now covers nine positions on the reels, giving even more chances to transform symbols and win huge payouts.
