Ela Games is one of the smaller gaming vendors that has come out with an interesting Viking themed slot aptly titled “Vikings Wild“. There is a lot on offer in this video slot like several bonus features and increasing multipliers up to 3x.
Contrary to the gritty imagery associated with the Vikings theme, the provider has chosen to go for a more animated, country-style vibe with farm animals.
The graphics here take on a rather cartoonish appearance. The background is of a flowing waterfall with jutting rocks on the side.
Vikings Wild is a 5×4 video slot with 50 paylines. This title from Ela Games has a moderate stake limit between $0.5 and $50 which will appeal mostly to mid stakes players. The maximum cash jackpot and the RTP max out at $500 and 94.01% respectively.
The paytable features A-J royal icons in the form of floating wooden tokens, the Viking warriors Wild, a Drakkar bonus shield, a mug of frothy ale, and animals like sheep, fish, birds and a rat.
Special Features
Coming to the extra features, the Wild symbol appears exclusively on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5 in the main game as a stacked icon that can replace all regulars except the bonus. This symbol appears on every reel in the bonus game and can also become a full reel Wild.
As for the Drakkar Wilds feature, players can trigger it by landing Wilds in the top 3 spots on the grid. Thereafter, the stacked Wilds move downwards with every spin. Landing 3, 4, or 5 bonus icons triggers the Drakkar Bonus, which delivers guaranteed Wilds on reels 2 and 4 with an additional multiplier of up to 3x.
The last feature is the Instant Drakkar Bonus which triggers when players collect 20 points in the accompanying Drakkar collector bar. Each full reel Wild equates to 1 point. Once triggered, the feature plays out similar to the Drakkar Bonus, with an accompanying 1x multiplier that increases with every winning spin.
Overall, there is a lot to unpack in Vikings Wild apart from solid numbers and scintillating graphics. While this Ela Games title might not be your usual dark adventure usually associated with a Viking theme slot, the refreshing concept delivers well. Despite the lower betting range and the 94.01% RTP, this title by Ela Games deserves a few spins.
