Vikings Unleashed Megaways Slot - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

Welcome to Blueprint Gaming’s Viking experience, which offers players up to 117649 ways to win with each spin of the reels. The game features impressive winning potential with cascading reels so you can get many winning combinations from one spin. There’s also a free spins feature with unlimited multipliers and all the additional thrills and spills that a Megaways game brings

Graphics

Blueprint have timed their release of Vikings Unleashed Megaways just right to coincide with a new season of the acclaimed TV series Vikings. If you enjoyed NetEnt’s Viking casino slot game, this one follows a similar theme, but the feel is altogether different.

Graphics are markedly different between the two games, with this Vikings Unleashed demo giving us more graphics of the cartoon superhero nature. NetEnt’s approach is a lot calmer - it’s a bit like watching a film at times - whereas Blueprint has obviously gone for a more all-action experience.

Action-Packed Experience

The effect of the all-action approach means that as you load up this game you really do feel like you’ve set sail on a voyage to new lands. A word of warning: players who do not have sea legs may want to steady themselves before getting on board.

The reels are made out of the ship’s mainsail divided into smaller sections. The result is a panel with a myriad of possible winning combinations. To keep you company on your voyage of discovery your shipmates here come in the form of three epic Vikings, who look like they mean business.

Game Layout

Once on board and into the action you’ll get free spins, a buy and gamble option, unlimited multipliers and the chance to pot 10,000 times your original stake - and that’s just for starters.

The main feeling you get with this slot is that there’s always plenty to keep you entertained and rewarded. If you’re looking for a slot that takes you way back in time with a slightly edgy feeling and, if you’re lucky, a winning pot that keeps on filling, then this one could be for you.

How To Play Vikings Unleashed Megaways

Easy steps to get you started:

1. Check out the paytable for winning combinations, RTP & Bonus Round details.
2. Click '^' or 'v' to adjust your total bet amount.
3. If Autospin is your thing, select number of spins and win/loss limits.
4. Decide your budget, hit 'Play' and hope those Vikings bring you wins!

Each reel has seven symbols with an extra reel sitting along the top to help you in your quest. Added to this is the fact you have the possibility of 117649 chances to win with every spin of the wheel. So the scene is set for a potentially profitable experience.

Vikings Unleashed Megaways RTP

You’ll be pleased to know there is a return to player percentage of 96.5% with this game. When you’re getting on average 96.5 back for every 100 wagered, you know that, most of the time, you’re on to a winner.

With a healthy return like this and with wins coming fairly thick and fast when we reviewed this game, don’t expect to wait too long before your pot is added to.

Vikings Unleashed Megaways Volatility

Vikings Unleashed Megaways is a high volatility game so may not be suited to those who are not patient for wins and don't like large bankroll fluctuations.

How to Win

On first inspection there looks to be a lot going on, with the number of tiles spinning and lots of combinations possible. Once you get into the game, however, winning, is fairly straightforward and at times pleasantly unpredictable.

Getting between three and six identical symbols next to each other in any case will get you a win. As you might expect, your winnings are multiplied by the stake chosen.

Base Game Features

The cascade feature here is a big plus, triggering when you get a winning sequence. Your winning symbols will disappear as an entertaining cascade throws new ones into their place.

With Wild symbols featuring on reels 2 to 5 only, winning symbols which disappear are replaced - again quite a neat feature. This involves a chain reaction which means your lucky streak will continue as long as winning combinations keep falling into place.

The biggest possible win is 10,000x your stake which is pretty big even for a volatile game.

Vikings Unleashed Megaways Bonus Features & Free Spins

This game has made sure that as well as a free ride on the ocean waves there are a number of bonus features to keep you busy en route.

Get three of these symbols or more and you’re straight into free spins. An added bonus during this is there’s a multiplier which can increase without limits with each spin.

Optional Feature Drop

One option here is that you can use what’s called the Feature Drop to purchase the bonus and get you launched directly into free spins. All you have to do is stake 25, 50, 75 or 100 times your original wager. Again, with the high volatility of this game, maybe not as risky as it sounds.

The wild symbol appearing on reels 2, 3, 4 or 5 will be substituted for symbols to give you a winning combination if it is available. The Scatter symbol is also an interesting one. Although these won’t appear above reels 2 to 5, if you see four of these anywhere else on the screen you will bag as many as 12 free spins.

Landing Free Spins Organically

Get lucky landing further Scatter symbols and you’ll keep getting an additional five spins for your money. With Scatter wins awarded separately to your reel wins, there’s definite scope to keep building your balance.

Mystery Symbols

A twist of the unexpected comes in the form of that well-known Viking favourite: the hammer. A number of hammers can appear in any position as mystery symbols, and when they do, expect some action. They will all reveal the same random symbol, adding to your chances of more slot rewards.

Gamble Feature

Another key feature is that you can use the Gamble option before starting a free spin. If your gamble is successful, your pies will be updated ready for the next gamble. The only drawback here is that your gamble is limited to a 10x multiplier or 27 spins. Having said that, it’s still quite generous. Of course, you might lose, which will take you back to normal play.

Increasing Multipliers

Think that’s finally it for free spins? We did - but there is even more. Free Spins Unlimited means that before you know it most of your voyage will feel like it’s been free-spinning most of the way. These come in the form of big bet options ranging from 25, 50 and 75 times your bet all the way up to 100.

Overall Review

Entertaining graphics, sounds which make you think you’re really there and the chance to win a king’s ransom mean that Vikings Unleashed Megaways is a slot not to miss. It’s different, and we think even an improvement in terms of action and excitement than NetEnt’s Viking offering.

All in all, it’s a slot that makes an assault on the senses. If it’s not the graphics, the sound will get you. If it’s not the thrill of the multipliers, the randomness of winning options will get to you.

A Huge Hit Online

The fact that this game is featured across the Internet with gamers singing its praises is no coincidence. However, in ignoring any of the excitement generated by these would-be Vikings, we approached this slot with an open-mind, prepared to give it either a thumbs-up or thumbs-down.

Two minutes in, though, and we were pretty much hooked. With so much going on, and so much to play for, you might find you’ve forgotten you’re at sea whilst shouting at the screen for your symbols to come up. Our recommendation? Walk up the gangplank and set sail for yourself.
