The new Viking’s Ransom online slot was developed by Barcrest, it’s brought to you by SG Digital, and it’s expected to arrive at some of our reviewed UK online casinos on Monday 24th February. The main character on this new Viking/Norse Mythology-themed online slot is Erik the Red, and the game has 6 reels and 40 paylines.

UK players will only have access to the new Viking’s Ransom slot in the real money mode, but the wide betting range is suitable for everyone from low rollers to high rollers and will allow you to take one spin of the reels from as little as £0.10 up to a maximum of £500.00 per pin. Some of the things that you can look forward to on this game are the Reel Link with Colossal Symbols Bonus feature and the Berserker Free Spins Bonus.

The Wild Symbol is the main character symbol, Erik the Red, and the other special symbol to keep an eye out for is the Viking Longship Scatter Symbol. The Wild Symbols can appear partially stacked, and they will substitute all other symbols on the reels apart from the Scatter Symbols. The Reel Link feature can randomly trigger on any spin, and once triggered, the lightning will strike the reels, and Colossal Symbols will form either on reels 1 and 2, 3 and 4, or 5 and 6.

The size of the symbols that can show up on the linked reels can measure 2X4 (Character Symbols) or 2X2 (regular symbols), but if the lightning strikes the same reel twice, only Colossal Wild Symbols will appear (measuring 2X4). The most exciting thing about this game is the Free Spins Bonus that will instantly trigger when 3 or more Scatter Symbols land on the reels at the same time. Just 3 Scatter Symbols showing up gets you a minimum guaranteed bonus of 8 Free Spins, whereas 4 Scatter Symbols gets you 12 Free Spins, 5 gets you 15 Free Spins, and 6 gets you 20 Free Spins.

During the Free Spins Bonus, additional Free Spins can be retriggered, plus another exciting in-play feature called the Berserker Wilds Bonus can also trigger. Basically, a random number of Wild Symbols will be added to the reels, plus you can also benefit from Colossal Wild Symbols during the bonus for even bigger wins. Don’t forget that on any lucky spin, you will be playing to win up to 10,000x times your total stake.

If you’re a fan of Viking-themed online slots or Norse Mythology-themed online slots, then you should also enjoy playing on the new Viking’s Ransom online slot as soon as it arrives later on this month. While you’re waiting for this new slot to arrive, some of the other similar slots that I can recommend keeping an eye out for in the meantime include titles such as Thunderstruck II, Lighting Strike Megaways, Tiki Vikings, and Vikings of Fortune. You may also like Vikings Go Wild, Vikings Go Berzerk, Vikings Go To Hell, Viking Runecraft, Age of Asgard, Fortunes of Asgard, Thor’s Lightning, Vikings, and Asgardian Stones, to name just a few great games.
