Vikings Go Berzerk

Historical inspired thematics are at the centre of this Vikings Go Berzerk slot game released by Yggdrasil Gaming back in 2016. This is one of the many historical-themed games at BoyleSports Games, and this title stands out thanks to the interesting design and the brilliant range of bonus features that Yggdrasil has included.

Vikings Go Berzerk Game Background

The gameplay in the Vikings Go Berzerk slot is held over a 5-reel, 4-row playtable designed to look like the sails of a Viking longship. There are 25 fixed paylines included in this title, a fairly standard number of pay lines for games outside the Megaways slots genre. Whilst the high-value symbols feature their own coloured backdrops, behind the lower-value coins in play, the red-striped mast of this great ship can be seen. 

Yggdrasil Gaming has put a lot of effort into the design features here with Vikings Go Berzerk, and the aforementioned longship looks great for it. The front and back of the longboat features a curved design on top of which metal carvings depicting the head and tail of a great dragon have been added. Beneath the reels, various Viking character symbols can be seen inside metal porthole-style metres that can be filled during play.

Vikings Go Berzerk Slot Symbols

All of the symbols in Vikings Go Berzerk follow the interesting theme, which means there are no card symbols taken from live casino games included in this title. This is yet another design element that highlights Yggdrasil Gaming’s eye for detail.

Lower Value Symbols

• Grey Coin

• Bronze Coin

• Silver Coin

• Gold Coin

Higher Value Symbols

• Female Viking

• Grey Beard Viking

• Eye Patch Viking

• Warrior Viking

Along with the base game symbols here, Yggdrasil Gaming has included a wild symbol, a free spin scatter, and treasure chest symbols to play.

Vikings Go Berzerk Bonus Features

Should you land combinations of any Viking symbol in play, this could cause the metre on screen to be filled slightly and completely filling this metre could cause the Viking to go berzerk, hence the name of the game. If this occurs, this could trigger 7 free spins in which the berzerk Viking will fight the siren and if it wins, it may become a sticky wild in play.

The wild symbol mentioned above plays as it does in many slots and Slingo games, with the ability to substitute for any of the base game symbols in the case that it lands on the longboat backed reels.

The treasure chest symbols in the Vikings Go Berzerk slot could trigger a bonus round if landed on the 4th reel of the playgrid. This could result in a card pick feature that includes prizes valued between 2x and 40x the bet stake and 7, 14 or 21 free spins to play through. Landing the treasure chest symbols on the 4th row during the free spins feature could trigger 2 or 4 additional free spins or even a wild reels feature!

Landing 3, 4 or 5 of the free spin scatters in play could result in either  7, 14 or 21 free spins in this Vikings Go Berzerk slot. Before play commences though, a random modifier is selected for the duration of these spins. This could make all of the Viking symbols in play Berzerk, add 1-3 extra spins to the count, add sticky wilds, wild reels or even treasure chests to play.

In addition to all of these other bonuses, the ‘Ragnarok’ free spins feature could make all Vikings that potentially land  turn Berzerk as well as converting them into sticky wilds if they manage to beat the sea siren on screen! As you can probably tell, Yggdrasil Gaming have not been shy about combining various bonus mechanics in this release.

Vikings Go Berzerk Mobile Play

Gamers looking to try out some of the great features mentioned here with a mobile device could do so thanks to the HTML5 software that Yggdrasil Gaming has incorporated in the Vikings Go Berzerk slot. These capabilities are included in many online casino games and allow players to experience the same innovative features with devices of varying screen sizes.

Overall, the Vikings Go Berzerk slot takes the popular Nordic inspired theme and merged it with a whole host of gameplay elements thanks to the creative minds over at Yggdrasil Gaming, creating a nuanced experience that stands out from other titles within its respective niche genre.

It is not just the Vikings Go Berzerk slot that draws influence from Nordic culture and mythology either, with the Thunderstruck 2 slot from Microgaming and Vikings Unleashed Megaways slot being just two other examples with similar visual approaches.
