Vikings Go Berzerk Pokie Review

vikings go berzerk slot logoYggdrasil announces another Viking-themed pokie and judging by the preview the Vikings are coming back feistier and wilder than ever.

The old team with a couple of new members is back and this time their enemies on the seas will be seductive mermaids trying to fend them off course.

You can guess that this will enrage the tempestuous Vikings so be careful because when they reach their anger limit they go berserk which is a great sign for you as you will get Free Spins.

The graphics and the soundtrack are familiar from the previous title Vikings Go Wild as well as the main feature in which the Vikings fight with the enemies to become wild. The Vikings have also prepared some new features so stick around and find out more about this Norse adventure.

Developer

Award-winning Malta-based developer Yggdrasil are comparatively new on the online gaming scene but they have managed to create a recognisable style when producing games, especially pokies. Their pokies are dynamic and present original themes with the addition of atypical special features.

One of their latest pokies released is an exciting 5 reel 3D Super Heroes. Their pokies usually come with an RTP of 96%, which is also the case in Vikings Go Berzerk Pokie.

How to Play It

Set against the crimson horizon the 5×4 reel grid in the shape of Norse Viking ship sails away into the sunset on a new trip to the unknown. Amazingly delivered reels in 3D animation will fire up each time there is a winning combination while the angry faces of Vikings crew will spin with the coins and treasure chests.

If you have played any Yggdrasil pokie before then you will feel at home with the controls of the game. Classic options of setting the bet and coin value will be available for you to customise as you see fit. If you hate the hassle of calculating then you can simply hit the Maxbet button and get ready for spinning.

The reels will feature some of the old Viking faces we had a chance to see in the previous Viking adventure as the top-paying symbol and bronze, silver, golden and jade coins as low-paying symbols.

One interesting addition that will surely catch your eye is the pictures of three Vikings and one Shieldmaiden who all look pretty mad. This is the basis for one of the special features of this game which we will cover in detail later in this review.

Naturally, the Wild symbol will replace any of the mentioned symbols if it is needed to form a winning combination.

However, the Wild will not be able to replace the Scatter which is responsible for activating the bonus game.

Special Features

The main characteristics of the Vikings in the previous Viking pokie – Vikings Go Wild was their ability to fight the sea monster and if they win to upgrade into Wilds. This is one trait that they held on to in this new voyage across the seas.

As we have mentioned before, four main characters of this game will appear below the reels with a meter around them measuring the level of their rage. The Rage Meter fills up whenever there is a winning combination achieved with the Viking in question.

Believe us you will want to test the limits of Vikings’ patience as the moment they go berserk and the Rage Meter lights up, that is when you get 7 Free Spins with the enraged Viking flaring across the reels as Wild.

Still, the main reason why anyone will join this mean-looking crew is the chance of winning Free Spins during which all the Vikings go berserk, that is, turn into Wilds.

To make this happen you will need 3 Scatter symbols which activate the Ragnarök Feature. That is when the greatest battle will be fought and the destiny of the Norsemen will be decided.

We are not sure if there will be any special additions for more than three Scatters, but this seems to be enough having in mind that during the free games all the Vikings get the superhuman strength and they are able to defeat the mermaids.

Practically, this means that they will all turn into Wild symbols and you could easily get a full screen of Wilds.

Maximum Payout

According to the information we have so far the betting range will start at $0.25 and be limited to $50. High rollers might not be thrilled by this number, but there is a chance to win 450 your stake so perhaps it should not be dismissed on the account of the bet size.

The theoretical return to player is around 96% which is not the highest we have seen but it is typical for Yggdrasil games.

Summary

After the success of Vikings Go Wild it is hard to expect the sequel to repeat the feat and achieve its popularity.

However, Vikings Go Berzerk seems strong enough to handle the pressure and perhaps be even more popular than its predecessor, due to the new features such as Rage Meter and Ragnarök Free Spins that carry the potential of adding a screenful of Wilds. We are a couple of weeks away from the official launch of the pokie and we can’t wait to try this one out.
