Vikings Go Berzerk is an online slot game by software developer Yggdrasil, and it is every bit of worthy of Yggdrasil’s reputation for fantastic visuals and smooth gameplay. Prepare to board a real Viking ship which, by the way, looks absolutely stunning; the graphics are 3D and they work wonders for the distinctive characters on and around the reels. There are fierce looking men with long, full beards, and among their ranks there is even a female warrior wearing blue face paint and rocking a stunning braided hairdo. In addition, there’s a great Scandinavian sounding backing track that will seal the deal and make for a captivating atmosphere. But if you feel like it’s all a little overpowering you can always make use of the mute button.
Now that all of that is out of the way, it’s time to cover the basics. This includes the game’s layout, which features a slightly larger than usual grid of 5 reels and 3 rows. In addition to those there will be a total of 25 active paylines for you to place your bets on. However, keep in mind that the paylines are fixed so you won’t have the opportunity to set them to a lesser number. The minimum bet in Vikings Go Berzerk will set you back some 25p per single spin and the largest amount you will be able to stake here is a total of £125 per spin.
Special Features
Wild
The Wild symbol in this game can appear in any position across all five reels, and as is its wildly duty, it will be able to substitute for all other symbols in this offering. In ths way the Wild will be able to help boost your winnings. The one exception to this rule is the game’s Scatter symbol.
Berzerk Mode
Notice the four Vikings waiting peacefully below the reels. Each of them has a Rage meter which you can fill by landing winning combos including the respective Vikings.
Once you fill the Rage meter of a Viking he or she will go Berzerk, and as a result of that you will receive 7 freespins during which your Berzerk Viking will always win in the battles against the Siren.
Scatter
Making the characters in this title go crazy isn’t the only way to trigger the Freespins Feature. You can actually do so using the more conventional method with the help of the Scatter symbol. More precisely, you can do so by landing 3, 4, or 5 Scatters at the same time. This will provide you with 7, 14, or 21 freespins, respectively.
However, before the Freespins Feature actually begins, you will first receive one of the random extras. These include all Vikings going Berzerk, 1 Sticky Wild randomly being placed on the reels, or even a fully Wild reel (also sticky). Then there are other options, like for example receiving 1 to 3 extra freespins, and you may also benefit from an additional 5 regular or golden treasure chests on the reels.
Finally, during the Freespins Bonus, any time a Viking lands on the reels he/she will fight the Siren, and in the event of victory, that Viking will become a Sticky Wild for the remainder of the feature.
Treasure Chests
There are two types of treasure chests in Vikings Go Berzerk: a regular one and golden one. The former can only land on reel 4, whereas the latter will only appear on reel 5. Whenever one of them lands during a spin you will get to choose one of the five prizes they offer.
The regular treasure chest has prizes like coin wins between 50 and 1,000 coins and freespins. Other options include extra freespins (in the Freespins Feature), Wild Reels, and extra Wilds. As for the golden treasure chest, it basically offers more of the same options. In addition, it can also trigger the Freespins Bonus or add Rage to one of the meters.
