Hats down to the developers that go above and beyond to create a game that stands out from a sea of standard slots. Play n’ Go deserves admiration to the level of creativity put into a game like Viking Runecraft. It will take you a while to understand all the games possibilities, but once you do, any other game will be plain in comparison. This game takes complexity and fun to another level allowing you to increase your bankroll along the way.
Theme
Viking Runecraft is a cascading slot with a 7 x 7 grid where the board is set up high in the mountains with snow and one of the Gods looking over your play. The God illustrated on the right of the reels will match the level of the game the player is currently on and below him is the pattern given to clear before you can advance. To the left of the reels the Rune Stone Valhalla Bonus meter is located, alongside the Charge Meter of Destruction and the board showing the winning combinations on the grid. The music accompanying throughout the game will have you hyped for a battle and ready for the next level. The symbols in the game include the 5 different Rune Stones, a helmet, Hammer, Axe and Medallion.
Betting Options, Functions and Features
This slot does not have pay-lines and to form a win you must land at least 5 matching symbols touching each other in a connected cluster either vertically and/or horizontally. Once the win is formed it will burst and be removed from the grid allowing space for new symbols to fall into place; this will continue until no more wins are made. Landing wins in a row not only boosts your bankroll but also fills up the Charge Meter of Destruction that will award one of the following features: Fury of Fenrir, Judgement of Jormungandr, Scorching of Surtr and the Lure of Loki. If the meter is charged twice before one of the features kicks in the Ragnarok feature starts. During this feature, the Charge is replaced by the End of the World meter where you will be richly awarded up to 80x multipliers. All players start as the Journeyman and progress into further levels, to clear the first level you must match the pattern given on the screen, once accomplished the player will meet the second God and so on. Each God has a unique gift that triggers randomly during gameplay and they are as follow: The God of Thunder, Wisdom, Beauty and Guarding.
Our Take
This game presents such a joy to play, with all the special features it has you must give it a try. A combination of a strategy board game, Tetris-like formations, random in-play features and bonus games this slot is like nothing out there. Once again, way to go, developers, as they have given us something that destroys the old format of slots.
