Volatile Vikings Slot Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Volatile Vikings is a highly volatile Norse mythology slot from Relax Gaming, and it plays out on a 6x5 Scatter Pays engine grid. Consecutive Cascading Wins unlock Multiplier Reveal symbols that build towards the end of the sequence to boost your total win. This multiplier never resets in the bonus round, which can lead to payouts up to 20,000x your stake.

Volatile Vikings Review

Relax Gaming knows how to make common and somewhat overused themes their own, and this commendable ability is very much on display Volatile Vikings. Instead of a bunch of bearded warriors on the reels, you’ll see neatly carved wooden Norse god masks that chant a unique tune per winning symbol type. The low-value rune symbols sound off different notes too, and the whole thing harmonizes very well with the atmospheric background music.

Symbols Pay Anywhere as long as at least 8 matching instances are in sight, and it’s the total number racked up at the end of a cascade that counts. Consecutive Cascades tend to unlock special multiplier symbols, boosting the end payout and exploding to trigger more cascades. Things can get really tense in the bonus round, when the global win multiplier just keeps building. However, high volatility combined with relatively few spins, makes this a very ‘hit or miss” feature.

Volatile Vikings Features

Your payout is determined by the total number of winning symbols (8 to 12+) at the end of the Cascading Reels feature that each win triggers. The carved wooden masks are the premium symbols, and they pay between 10x and 50x your stake for 12+ anywhere.

You will land 2 Multiplier Reveal symbols on reels 3 and 4, respectively, for each spin.

These symbols come with a random counter number and ditto multiplier value attached, and the counter decreases by 1 per winning cascade. The multiplier value is “released”, and becomes active, when the counter reaches zero.

An activated multiplier symbol explodes up to 8 adjacent symbols, triggering a new cascade. When the cascading sequence comes to an end, all activated multiplier symbols are summed up on the right-hand side, and this total multiplier will then boost the total win.

You need at least 3 ‘locked treasure chest’ scatters on the same spin to trigger the Bonus Round. This awards 6 free spins as a minimum, with +1 spin added per extra scatter you land above 3. The Multiplier Reveal feature is very much in play during the bonus round also, but with the added benefit of not resetting between spins.

Each scatter you land awards +1 extra spin.

Non-UK players, or anyone living in a jurisdiction that allows for it, can purchase the Bonus Round directly from the in-game menu. This will set you back 100x your stake, and it guarantees at least 3 scatters on the spin that follows. Purchasing the bonus round increases the RTP to a very decent 97 %.

Our highlights video is less than 2 minutes long this time, and it starts with a longer cascading sequence that culminates in a x2 boosted win. We then purchase the bonus round at 0.38 into the video, and you can hit the play button below to see for yourself how we fared.

Review Summary

Just like the surroundings shift dramatically from ice to fire when the bonus round is triggered, such is the volatile nature of Volatile Vikings. The base game can dish out nothing but stone cold dead spins until you suddenly hit a cascading sequence topped off by a decent multiplier boost. However, smaller wins land here and there to keep you afloat also.

Audiovisually, the game sticks out from most Norse mythology titles, not least due to the singing carved wood premium symbols. The pace of the game is excellent even with the turbo switched off, and the Scatter Pays engine goes well together with the Cascading Wins mechanic. You’ll probably need the bonus round to come close to cracking the very solid 20,000x potential however, but 6+ spins can be over in a blink when things don’t go your way.

Pros

  • Scatter Pays Cascading Wins
  • Multiplier Reveal feature
  • FS w/ non-resetting multiplier
  • Win up to 20,000x your stake

Cons

  • 100x Bonus Buy not for UK players
