If you are passionate about slots and the crazy adventures of the valiant Scandinavian warriors, then Book of Vikings is for you! This slot has a classic format, with 5 reels containing 3 symbols each. In order to win on Book of Vikings, connections of 3 to 5 identical symbols must appear on the paylines. There are no original base game features, but there is a mysterious book symbol. This serves as a wild, which means that it has the ability to substitute for any symbol, making it easy to connect. This famous book also serves as a scatter, which means it can give you access to the bonus.

Different symbols in Book of Vikings

Book of Vikings contains many symbols that you will need to connect in order to win. The value of these symbols is predefined according to their rarity. As with many slot machines, the symbols here are divided into two categories, classic symbols and premium symbols. The former are the symbols that usually appear more often, however they are the ones that pay the least. They are represented by the highest values of a classic card game, i.e. 10, Jack, Queen, King and Ace.

The different connections of Book of Vikings

As you can see, in order to win on the Book of Vikings slot machine, you will need to see identical symbol connections, at least on the first 3 reels. In order for a connection to be valid, and therefore profitable, it is imperative that the symbols concerned are aligned on the paylines provided for this purpose. The paylines are read exclusively from left to right and only the maximum win per connection line is paid out. The following image shows the 10 paylines in Book of Vikings. The low number of paylines is due to the high volatility of this slot machine, which has a huge potential, especially with a bonus feature that can give you the chance to win huge amounts of money.

Book of Vikings Bonus Feature

Like most online slots, Book of Vikings contains a bonus feature where you are awarded free spins. To be eligible for these free spins, you need to have at least 3 scatter symbols, represented by the famous book, appear on the same spin. You will receive 10 free spins and a cash reward, which varies according to the number of scatters you get:

• 3 scatters = 10 free spins + 2 times your original bet;

• 4 scatters = 10 free spins + 20 times your original bet;

• 5 scatters = 10 free spins + 200 times your original bet.

The Book of Vikings bonus is very common in the online gambling world. Once the 10 free spins have been completed, a symbol will be randomly selected by the slot. This symbol will be your reference symbol for the duration of the bonus. This symbol is expandable, which means that it will span the entire reel every time this symbol appears at least 3 times on the grid (2 times for a premium symbol). Winnings will be won even if these symbols do not appear on the predefined paylines. You also have the chance to get 10 extra free spins if during a free spin 3 scatters appear simultaneously. There is no maximum limit to the number of free spins, you can repeat this operation indefinitely.
