Vikings Go Berzerk Slot
- A new slot from Yggdrasil Gaming full of adventure
- Interesting features including rage and sticky Wilds
- Some big wins up for grabs, although more focus on the smaller wins
Vikings go Berzerk slot is brought to you by Yggdrasil Gaming, focusing on a Viking theme that’s full of adventure and treasure. Yggdrasil have taken a fairly light-hearted approach to what could quite easily be a dark theme, using brighter colours and slightly more friendly looking Viking characters in order to make the slot more appealing to a mass audience. Set on a Viking longship, they have done their best to immerse you into an ancient world when the Vikings once ruled the seas.
Vikings go Berzerk slot has 5 reels with 4 rows and 25 pay lines, which is all pretty standard. Wins of course start from left to right, and a winning combination using the base symbols will give you a cash reward. These symbols are listed here in ascending order based on their value:
- Iron Coin (lowest value)
- Bronze Coin
- Silver Coin
- Gold Coin
- Blue Viking Warrior
- Green Viking Warrior
- Purple Viking Warrior
- Red Viking Warrior (highest value)
It’s interesting that Yggdrasil Gaming have opted to make each symbol a different value here. There is of course a Wild symbol also which substitutes for all symbols apart from the Free Spin symbol.
Vikings Go Berzerk Slot Bonuses and Features
Free Spin Mode. This is triggered by 3 or more Free Spins symbols each offering a different number of free spins as well as the bonus. 3 symbols will award 7 free spins, 4 will award 14 free spins and finally, 5 will grant 21 free spins. All Vikings have a chance to become sticky Wilds during Free Spin Mode, and in order to do this they must successfully fight off the evil Siren. As I mentioned, as well as the free spins you will also be offered one out of 5 bonuses which are awarded randomly. These bonuses are as follows:
- Ragnarok Free Spins. All Vikings are Berzerk.
- Starting Wild. 1 sticky Wild is placed in a random position for the duration of the Free Spin Mode.
- Wild Reel. A random reel will become Wild and sticky for the duration of the Free Spin Mode.
- Free Spins. This will award an additional 1 to 3 free spins.
- Extra Chests. This will add 5 extra treasure chests and golden treasure chests.
Treasure Chest. The treasure chest symbol will always land on the 4th reel and contains 5 prizes from which you can choose one. If it lands during the base game, you can be awarded 50-1000 coins, or 7-12 free spins. If it lands in Free Spins Mode, however, then you can be awarded 50-1000 coins, 2-4 free spins, a Wild Reel, 1 extra Wild or 2 Extra Wilds.
Golden Treasure Chest. This treasure chest only lands on reel 5, and also contains 5 prizes for you to choose from. During the base game, it can award 250-10000 coins, 7-12 free spins, Ragnarok Free Spins or Rage Boost. If it lands during Free Spin Mode though, it can award 250-10000 coins, an additional 2-4 free spins, a Wild Reel or 2 extra Wilds.
Rage. Every time you win with a Viking character, that character collects Rage. This Rage can be seen as a meter by the character at the bottom of the reels. Once the Rage meter is full, you will be awarded 7 free spins with that Viking in Berzerk Mode. Any Viking in Berzerk mode will always win against the Siren in Free Spin Mode, meaning they will always become sticky Wilds throughout the bonus.
Conclusion
Vikings Go Berzerk slot is a lot of fun and has some interesting and unique features with potential for big wins. Namely, the Ragnarok Free Spins bonus that can be awarded as an addition to your free spins can offer consistent big wins, but unfortunately, this feature turns up very rarely. You can also win some good prizes from the treasure chests, especially the golden one which appears on reel 5, although don’t expect the higher end of the cash reward to come up too often. The theme itself is great and I really like how Yggdrasil have based the features of the game on this, with things like Berzerk and Rage. The graphics are excellent too, just like with Lucha Maniacs slot from Yggdrasil, and overall help to immerse you in the experience. To sum up then, I think you’ll find this slot a lot of fun, with a great theme, several ways to make smaller yet consistent winnings and a couple of ways to win some large prizes as well.
