Vikings Unleashed Megaways Slot Review – Blueprint

Blueprint is already back with a new slot, it has already been released on all sites and they have announced a new slot just to top it off. How can they keep up with all of these games? It’s absolute madness. A review for the newly announced slot will be up soon but their most recent slot is called ‘Vikings Unleashed Megaways‘. Yes, it is another Megaways slot which I know some people are already bored of already, but some people are still very excited about these being released.  The slot is action packed with a bonus buy, an RTP of 96.5% and an unlimited multiplier in the free spins.  Which reminds me a lot of BTG’s Extra Chilli and Bonanza bonus. Regardless, find out more in our Vikings Unleashed slot review.

The game has a Vikings theme which can be guessed from the title, the artwork is cartoon-like and overall the slot runs smoothly. The background is on a ship sailing the open water. Max Megaways is 117,640 which is a rare occurrence but makes the game very volatile. Certainly similar to some of BTG’s offerings.

The game has cascading symbols, this means when you land a win the symbols in the payline disappear and make way for new symbols to fall down in place. This can trigger repeatedly on the same spin and is very commonly seen nowadays.  There is also a bonus buy feature where you can gamble for more free spins, but you can also buy 5- 12 free spins at different prices and all at different RTP which is very new to me. The only base game feature is the mystery symbol, this changes into a random symbol when it lands on reels.

Vikings Unleashed Slot Review Symbols And Paytable

The game has 6 low paying symbols which consist of 9,10, J, Q, K, and A. These are all in a font with a different colour representing each. There are also 4 high paying symbols which consist of a wizard, a hero girl, strong Viking and golden Viking. The golden Viking pays 50x overall 6 reels. There is the mystery symbol, free spins scatter and a wild symbol also featured on reels.

Vikings Unleashed Slot Review Free Spins

So for the free spins, you can land 4 scatters in the base game which awards 12 free spins and you also get 5 additional free spins for each extra scatter that lands when you activate the spins. But you can buy the bonus if you are impatient for it to land;

  • 5 Free spins = 25x bet size at 96.75% RTP
  • 8 Free spins = 50x bet size at 96.89% RTP
  • 10 Free spins = 75x bet size at 96.90 % RTP
  • 12 Free spins = 100x bet size at 96.91% RTP

So you could only pay 25x, then land an extra scatter when the game automatically triggers the bonus when you purchase. But the higher the spins the higher the RTP which is a nice advantage if you want to pay 75-100x. This makes the free spins very volatile. The actual free spins can be gambled;

When you purchase the spins you are given the choice to gamble for more spins or an increase in the starting multiplier, It shows the chance of win and loss with the colours green and red. The red area does not increase when you win during the gamble feature, you can just keep clicking and hope for the best. Once you hit the red area, you lose the bonus and return to the base game. The free spins have unlimited retriggers and an unlimited multiplier which increases after every individual win.

Vikings Unleashed Slot Review Conclusion 

Overall, I really like this slot. It does have its similarities to other slots but also has unique factors. It was really fun to play and I really like the unique gamble feature. Plus the fact you can buy spins at different prices is great for players who play at different stakes. Blueprint did a great job making this slot and it is definitely very volatile. You can try the game for yourself now on exclusive sites. Also, remember to check out my Twitch stream for more action and see the slot live.
