Vikings Go To Valhalla Slot Machine – Free Play & Review

Yggdrasil has built an entire series around the idea of Vikings that are going places. They’ve went Berzerk, Wild, to Hell, so in Vikings Go To Valhalla it feels like there is an actual improvement, even though it comes as a result of death. As usual, Yggdrasil does a very good job designing their slot machines, so I believe you will enjoy the look for this one as well.

If you look for its feature symbols, you will find that they include images of Free Spins logos and dragons, but also of simple Wild logos. Four Viking Warriors are used as main symbols, the top-paying ones, while the four lowest ones show off shields with different drawings on them.

Developer

Yggdrasil is a Swedish developer, so it has those Nordic roots that help explain while the Vikings series is so important to them. They’ve reached slot machine number 5 with this one, and they’re all excellent options. If you enjoy Vikings Go To Valhalla, check out the others from the series as well.

How To Play It

It’s the usual game when it comes to betting, letting you spend as little as $0.25, or as much as $50. Either way, the 25 lines are all active.

5×4 reels feels like too big of a game area, for a slot machine that only has 25 active lines. The winning combinations form via 3+ matching symbols, but it’s the features that will help make this game interesting.

Special Features

A major side of the game comes from the Rage Collection. This mechanic allows you to collect Rage points from each of the four premium symbols, when they form winning combinations. There are four different meters at the bottom, associated with them. 1 to 3 points are added to the meter, for combinations of 3 to 5 symbols.

Once a meter is full, the Berzerk Respins trigger. These respins allow the Vikings landing on the reels to fight against Jormungandr the Snake, which is evil. Win the fight, and that character symbol is turned into a sticky wild. The triggering character is Berzerk, and is guaranteed to win all its fights. The respins end when you get a round where the warriors don’t win any fights.

A simple Wild is going to be available to you at all times, as a substitute that can replace only regular symbols.

There is also the possibility to reach the free spins, if you get 3 to 5 symbols with the feature’s logo and the image of the snake. Between 7 and 21 free spins are going to be awarded then. As it happens during respins, Vikings fight against the Snake, and will become sticky wilds if they win their battles.

The free spins also get 1 to 4 of the following bonuses, at random:

• One of the Vikings is Berzerk and wins all its fights.

• 1 or 2 additional free spins.

• 1 sticky wild added to the reels.

• 1 sticky wild reel.

• Additional Treasure Chests added.

Following each round, there is a Ragnarok Wheel which will spin, for a chance to access Ragnarok Free Spins. These spins turn all Vikings into Berzerkers, so they all turn into sticky wilds as well.

Finally, a word about Treasure Chests. These can show up on reel 5, both for regular and free spins. They can pay up to 500x the stake, they can trigger regular or Ragnarok free spins, and they can bring extra modifiers if the features are already active.

Maximum Payouts

I think that you’re going to love the potential of the slot, up to 23,210x the stake paid for a single spin. The high volatility might keep you away, but you can rest assured that the RTP is good enough, at 96%.

Summary

Overall, I think that Vikings Go To Valhalla will be an excellent option for anyone that already loves the series. It can also be a decent option for anyone that doesn’t know about it already.
