Game Mechanics
You can set the value of your coins from 0.01 to 0.50 (in increments of 0.01, 0.02, 0.05, 0.10, 0.20, and 0.50). When your coin value is set to 0.01, your max bet is €2. But when your coin value is set to 0.50, your max bet becomes €100. The minimum bet is 20 cents, though new gamers should test out the slot before they play with the big bucks.
Like with most online slot games, the more you bet, the more you win, but there is nothing wrong with building your confidence before you do so.
There is a handy Auto Play feature where you can set your bet and number of spins, but, in advanced settings, you can also set AutoPlay to stop on any win, or if a Raid Spin is won, as well as a few other variables related to the amount of cash won or bet.
This handy feature lets you really enjoy your wins. Of course, you can also hit the stop button at any time to take over the reins again, should you feel inclined.
Understanding the Pay Table helps you to come to grips with which images you are keeping your fingers crossed for, as you click to spin and win.
Special Features
Let's start with the basics and dive into Raid symbols. Three Raid symbols in reels 3, 4 and 5 in the main game, will activate Raid spins.
Raid Spins will then turn the playing area into a 7 reel, 5 rows. And seven Raid Spins award will score you three Hot Spots that need to display in reels 3, 4 and 5 for big wins.
When a fully stacked Viking symbol lands completely in one or more Hotspot areas, all other symbols both inside and outside the playing areas, are transformed into the same fully stacked Viking symbol that landed in the Hot Spot area.
Hot Spot
The Hot Spot feature will turn reel 3 into well, a Hot Spot. When a fully stacked Viking symbol lands fully in the play area, all symbols will replicate into the Viking symbol that landed in the Hot Spot area.
If any of the 4 symbols has a face on it, then you have yourself a Viking symbol.
Both single and fully stacked Viking symbols transform when the Hot Spot feature activates.
