Theme
As the slot’s name suggests, it has a Norse theme; all of the action takes place on a Viking longboat that is sailing through the ocean and the reels themselves are set in an elaborate carved frame. Accompanying the game is a rousing soundtrack and enjoyable sound effects that help to create atmosphere.
All of the slot’s high value symbols are thematic. They are four Viking warriors, one with a spear, one with a helmet, a female, and a sorcerer. The lower value symbols are the royals 9, 10, J, Q, K and A. There is a golden ‘Wild’ symbol, while the scatter symbol is a helmet. The hammer is a mystery symbol.
Bonus Features
Vikings Unleashed is packed with bonus features. Every time that you land a winning combination, the cascading reels activate. The winning symbols are removed from the reels to allow more symbols to fall from above. With a bit of luck, this will form another win, and the process can then repeat itself. This way you can land numerous wins from a single spin.
Thor’s hammer is the mystery symbol. When they land, they will randomly transform into matching symbols (any symbol other than the wild or the scatter) to help and form more win.
The main bonus is the free spins round. Landing four scatters will award 12 free spins and each additional scatter awards 5 extra spins. Once you have triggered the feature, there is an optional gamble game. You can choose to gamble your free spins or multiplier by spinning one of two wheels. If you are successful, you can win up to 27 free spins or a 10x multiplier. During the free spins, each winning cascade will increase the payout multiplier, and there is no upper limit.
In jurisdictions where it is allowed, it is also possible to buy the free spins. You can purchase 5, 8, 10 or 12 free spins for 25, 50, 75, or 100 times your bet respectively. When you buy free spins, they will always start with a x1 multiplier.
