Play Viking Gold for Free

Click to spin these reels and you’ll see that all symbols drop out of view and new ones fall down from above in a feature that FAZI call Crumbles. We’ve seen it given a few other names, with Cascading Reels being the most popular version, but it’s essentially the same thing where any winning combinations of symbols will vanish, and new ones fall into the empty spaces.

If this leads to any further winnings, those symbols will again disappear and so on until no new wins are seen. While this can lead to several wins from a single stake, the Crumbles will also trigger win multipliers and on the second win in a sequence, the prize is doubled, then the next win is tripled in value, until any fourth or more wins in a continuous Crumble will be multiplied five times over. All for a single wager!

The various carved stone effect symbols include blue-shaded and brown Viking faces that pay out the smallest wins when they stop on adjacent reel positions across a payline from the left side, plus there’s an axe head, grinning green Viking, the infinity symbol, a wolf and the top prizes are paid out by the Viking King. This character is worth 10x the line stake when he lands on three reels across a line, while four on a line will be worth 50x and a nice 500x your line bet is paid back when he crosses all five reels on a payline.

A dragon head is a wild symbol that can appear on the middle three reels and act as any other, with the exception of the red wolf, if it can then complete a payline, or extend a win across to the fourth reel.

The red wolf head will land on reels one, three and five only, but whenever you see three at a time, you are rewarded with ten free spins. The free games can be retriggered from within the round and the Crumbling reels are still in play with enhanced multipliers, but the mix of symbols is the same as in the standard games, so the average win ratio is going to be the same as in the base spins.

Platinum and Diamond jackpot levels are shown below the reels and these steadily rise as a small portion of all bets on FAZI games, across all online and mobile optimised casinos, are put aside. To be in with a chance of scooping one of these prizes all you have to do is play the games, as these are Mystery Jackpots that are paid out completely at random, with the proviso that punters on higher stakes will have a better chance of claiming them.

Another way to grab yourself a prize boost is opt for the gamble game after any win. This opens up a second screen where you just need to correctly guess if a playing card will be red or black to double the initial win. You’re then given the choice of playing again or collecting the prize but any wrong guess at any point of the gamble feature loses the round along with the original win.

A wide bet range that takes your wagers anywhere between 0.20 and 200.00 per spin should ensure that everyone will be able to find a level to suit their budgets. All 20 paylines are active, so you can’t test it out on just a line or two, but free Viking Gold video slots are available if you want to test it out first.

The Autoplay features are exceptional, allowing you to run the game for up to 1,000 spins with no need to click each time, while also giving you the choice of stopping them when a feature is triggered, ending them when you get a win over a certain amount, or closing down the round when your bankroll reaches a pre-set limit.

The topic of pirates and Vikings is a particular favourite among online slot game developers, perhaps because so many of these studios are based in Scandinavia. One such developer is Yggdrasil, who have named themselves after the Norse tree of life and their Vikings Go Berzek slot is set on a longship filled with hapless marauders and beautiful sirens.

Each winning combination from a Viking character builds up their level of rage on a meter below the reels and once full, they go berserk and award seven free spins. Special treasure chest symbols on reels four and five will award extra spins, real cash awards, wild reels and more in this five-reel, 25-line game that has some stunning CGI effects that bring Vikings back to life.

Play n’GO is another Swedish games developer and they have stayed true to their heritage with the Viking Runecraft video slot, that plays out on a 7x7 grid of symbols. Stone runes, hammers and helmets are all on the reel matrix, with Thor, the God of Thunder standing to one side, watching as a Cascading Reels feature lands win after win.  Landing certain patterns of symbols will take you through different game levels with extra bonus features such as wild symbols, and if you get to Ragnarok mode, there’s win multipliers of 15x to enjoy.

FAZI have once again shown us that they can develop slots with a fun style, as well as with a popular theme and pack them full of rewarding features. Even the base games with their Crumbles and multipliers can see some big payouts and once the free spins begin, with even higher multipliers in effect, you could be plundering the Vikings for lots of coins.

If you manage to land a random jackpot or double your win over and over in the gamble feature, then you’ll definitely want to revisit these generous Vikings many more times.
