Play Viking's Glory for Free

Unlike a lot of titles in the Spinomenal catalogue, Viking's Glory features a reduced number of nine fixed paylines. Though these lines pay from left-to-right and right-to-left, this limits the number of winning combos you can land, making the multiplier metre necessary to even out the variance.

Players can bet anywhere between $0.10 and $10 per line, making the total wager available per spin $90 – significantly less than the usual $250 featured in other Spinomenal titles. However, due to the presence of high speed reels, spins in Viking’s Glory tend to come around a lot quicker than in conventionally-paced titles such as the Toys of Joy slot, so the cost of play per minute is still pretty comparable to other games.

Payouts in Viking's Glory range from 3x your stake per line for matching three brooches and run all the way up to 250x your stake per line for matching five Viking's warriors. When coupled with the maximum multiplier, this means the most you can win from a single line is a huge 4,000x your stake.

Naturally, the symbols used in Viking's Glory are all inspired by the Norse seafarers of the late 8th to 11th centuries, with everything from battle decorations, long ships, shields and hammers appearing across its reels. The higher value symbols are denoted by a horned helmet and a young Viking's warrior, while the wild is a grey-bearded captain and the free spins scatter icon is a female archer.

The slot’s background features a calm blue sea and an unforgiving coastline dotted with snow-capped mountains, while each spin of the reels results in the creaking sounds of a ship at sea. All in all, this gives Viking's Glory a very consistent look and feel, making it quite a striking title to play on.

The game does also feature a limited amount of background music, with the main theme conjuring up images of fearless raiders embarking on a journey to pillage and plunder foreign shores and the winning ditty effectively sounding the horns of victory as you gather your loot.

As with other high speed reel titles in the Spinomenal portfolio, Viking’s Glory does not feature much in the way of bonus options, with the game instead favouring free spins and prize multipliers for an uninterrupted playing experience. While this does make things run a lot more smoothly, it could be argued that the slot lacks the depth necessary to keep the new generation of player entertained.

The free spins feature is activated whenever three or more scatter symbols are revealed anywhere across the game’s five reels. When this happens, players will receive an instant payout of 2-6x their stake and 10 free spins, with this feature re-triggered every time three subsequent scatters appear.

While the nine paylines on offer will certainly limit the effectiveness of these free spins, the presence of the multiplier metre does go some way to making up for this fact. Indeed, with players more likely to miss out on a prize each spin, the multiplier metre can easily be built up to 4x, 8x or 16x your starting stake, meaning you’re almost rooting not score early on during the bonus spins.

While Viking’s Glory does not offer anything particularly groundbreaking in terms of gameplay, Spinomenal have done a nice job in creating a slot that is pleasing to both the eye and ear. The game’s consistent theme makes it easy to lose yourself in the adventure, and the presence of an easily increased multiplier metre certainly helps compensate for the slot’s lower number of paylines.
