First Impressions of Vikings

Several online slots open with an introduction, giving players more insight into the slot and its theme. Whilst some only need a couple of seconds, Vikings goes all out to get you interested in the slot before the reels have even started spinning. The opening is full of suspense as characters and Viking longboats are projected onto a golden sword-like object as the camera slowly pans out to reveal the Vikings logo, which is full of drops and splashes of blood. The soundtrack is eerie, with the sound of metal banging to make the intro feel as though it has been plucked directly from the show.

After the intro, you are taken inside a run-down shack that is lit with candles and has a creepy hooded figure standing nearby. As you click to enter the game, the camera bursts forward to take you out of the shack to a large lake that is flanked by looming hills. In the foggy distance, a longboat floats whilst the snow begins to fall slowly. A black raven sits on the edge of the reels, just above a shield, and occasionally caws to interrupts the suspenseful soundtrack playing throughout. It is all very mysterious, only helped by the grey skies and black, shadowy grass that sways below the reels.

On the reels are your standard playing card symbols, which have been given a Vikings upgrade. These are shown as metal symbols that each look like a weapon in their own right, particularly due to the smudge of red they all bear. The other main symbols are the characters from the show, each looking very serious.

It’s a very impressive opening to a slot that even those who have not seen the show can appreciate. The mystery and suspense is conveyed excellently with the soundtrack, and the graphics are among the best we've seen.

Vikings Game Theme

For those who are not familiar with the slot theme, Vikings is based on the TV series of the same name, which first aired in 2013. Created by Michael Hirst, the show has been a firm fan favourite, yet the sixth series, which has yet to air, has been announced to be the last.

The show is based on Ragnar Lothbrok, a prominent figure in Norse mythology who was known as a hero and a legendary king. In the show, Ragnar starts off as a farmer, yet after completing several raids in England, he becomes a hero amongst the warriors and his family. The show follows Ragnar, his sons and the rest of his family, together with the warriors, as they encounter rivals and inevitable bloodshed along their journey.

How to Play Vikings Slots

All of your playing options sit below the reels, which keeps the impressive background of the slot clutter-free. Right in the centre is the spin button, which has a snake emblem, making it easy to know that this is your main icon on the player panel.

There are two options when it comes to choosing your bet amount. First, you can choose your bet level from between 1 and 10, followed by a coin value that falls anywhere from 0.01 up to 0.50. This means that you can adjust your total bet with a minimum of 0.20 and a maximum of 100.00 per spin. If you like to bet big, you don’t need to spend time clicking between the options; you can simply press the Max Bet option to automatically choose the highest stake.

Next to the spin button is the autoplay option. This can be set between 10 and 1000 automatic spins, with advanced options allowing you to set limits that will stop autoplay immediately. The only other main option on the panel is the information icon, which will take you to the paytable to tell you how much each symbol is worth and how you can trigger the features.

How To Win at Vikings Slots

The aim is to land as many matching symbols as possible to increase your balance. The playing card symbols 10, J, Q, K and A are all worth a similar amount, with payouts given for between three and seven matching symbols. The 10, J and Q will pay 2, 4, 10, 16 and 20, whilst the A and K give you 4, 8, 10, 16 and 20.

The character symbols, which include Ragnar Lothbrok, Lagertha, Floki and Bjorn, all pay out the same amount, with 6, 10, 20, 24 and 28 on offer when you land three, four, five, six or seven of a kind. The highest-paying symbol is the Vikings golden V symbol, which will pay 30, 40, 50, 60 and 70 for up to seven matching symbols, something that can be achieved thanks to the appearance of stacked symbols.

Vikings Bonus Features

Vikings has plenty of features to keep you entertained. First, the Hotspot Feature can be triggered during the main game. If a fully stacked character lands on the reel 3 hotspot, any other Viking character symbols will be transformed into the hotspot character to help create a better winning combination. This is also where Scatter Pays come into play, as when all Viking symbols have transformed, you could be in for a win of up to 200,000 for 27 matching symbols.

The Shield Wall Feature can be randomly triggered in both the base game and in the Raid Spins feature. Shields will cover a cluster of symbols and will make way to reveal one of the characters or the slot logo symbol to give you more matching symbols to add to your total.
