Vikings Go To Egypt Wild Fight

Yggdrasil Gaming drops its Viking crews into the pharaohs' backyard with Vikings Go To Egypt Wild Fight, counted as the sixth title in a series that began with Vikings Go Wild in 2015. The playfield is five reels by four rows with 25 paylines, and a win needs three or more matching symbols on a line, counted from the leftmost reel. Yggdrasil publishes a 94% RTP, with a lower 90.5% configuration also available, medium volatility, a 23% hit frequency and a top prize of 3,756x the bet. Stakes go from 0.25 to 125 per spin.

The paytable is split in two. Four Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs make up the cheap end, returning 1.6x to 2.8x for a five-symbol line, while four scowling Viking faces are the premiums at 6x to 10x for five. Wilds stand in for every regular paying symbol.

Two kinds of chest add random prizes. The silver chest lands only on reel four. Opened in the base game, it holds a cash prize of 2x to 40x the bet or 7, 14 or 21 free spins; opened during free spins, its contents are 2x to 40x, two to four extra spins, a wild reel, or one or two additional wilds. The golden chest lands only on the rightmost reel. In the base game it can pay 10x to 400x, hand over 7, 14 or 21 free spins, add a 25% Rage Boost, or launch Ragnarok Free Spins; in free spins the pool is 10x to 400x, two to four more spins, two extra wilds or a wild reel. A chest that falls on top of a sticky wild keeps both effects live.

Free spins start with three, four or five scatters, which award 7, 14 or 21 spins respectively. The round cannot be retriggered, and every wild sticks for its full length. Whenever a Viking lands, it fights Cleopatra before wins are paid on that spin, and a Viking that wins turns into a sticky wild. Ahead of the first spin, one bonus is picked from a short list: Ragnarok Free Spins, one to three added spins, an extra wild, a wild reel, or five silver plus five golden chests dropped in. Ragnarok Free Spins can also come from the golden chest, and in it every Viking is berserk and so always wins its fight.

Berserk status can be earned in the base game as well, through Viking Rage. Any win that includes a Viking feeds that character's meter: 4 points for three of a kind, 12 for four and 36 for five. A meter holds 700 points. When it fills, free spins begin with that Viking berserk and no extra bonus picked beforehand, played at the average of the bet levels used while the points were gathered. A new player starts with one Viking's meter already over half full.

The round can also be bought directly: 7 spins cost 40x the bet, 14 cost 120x, and 21 cost 260x.
