Viking Smash

Two armies face each other across a snowy mountain pass on the 5-reel board of Viking Smash, a Stakelogic slot that uses 243 ways to win. A blue clan lines up on the left and a red clan on the right, and a stirring soundtrack backs the clash. Their champions step onto the reels as walking wilds.

Wins pay in both directions, left to right and right to left, and any symbol needs three of a kind to count. The low pays are the card royals from 10 to A. Above them sit weapons: swords, bows, morning stars, axes and hammers. Five premium symbols in a line pay between 1.6x and 8x the base stake.

Two Viking warrior wilds are in play, and each one replaces every pay symbol. They arrive on the outer reels and march toward the opposite side, with every step awarded as a respin. The march stops when no wild remains on screen or when free spins are won. When opposing wilds meet on a row, 10 free spins are awarded, and every further pair that meets adds 4 spins. During the free spins the wilds can land on any reel instead of only the edges, and a meeting there adds 4 extra spins.

A Super Stake option doubles the base bet. While it is active, a losing spin can be followed by 2 to 6 wilds added to reels 1 and 5. After any win, an optional gamble offers a face-down card pick: the right colour doubles the win, the right suit quadruples it, and a wrong guess loses it. The gamble can be switched off.

Stakelogic lists the RTP at 95.6% with medium volatility. Bets run from 0.25 to 250, and the top payout with Super Stake is listed as 453,600 in euros.
