Viking Runes RTP and Volatility

9.9 
High risk comes with a 96.28% return.
Today we will introduce you to the classic good mathematical model for high-risk/reward players using the example of Viking runes. It has high volatility, offering great prizes and an RTP (Return to Player) of 96.28%, which is slightly above the market average. These are pretty good conditions for playing.

Theme

7.9 

Each rune in ancient times necessarily had its own name, but unfortunately, their original names have not survived, only their reconstructions have come down to us. On the stone playing field of the Viking Runes slot covered with a thick ball of snow, you can see a variety of runes beautifully highlighted in neon colors.

Near the drums is a courageous red-bearded Viking with a huge sledgehammer in his hands, and in the background, there is a view of the snow-capped mountains and forest. The slot machine has an excellent cartoon design and high-quality graphics.

High paying standard symbols: Blue Stone - up to 2,000x the stake, and Pink Stone - up to 1,600x the stake. Average paid standard symbols: Orange Rune - up to 1,000x the rate, Red Rune - up to 1,000x the rate, Purple Rune - up to 600x the rate, Green Rune - up to 600x the rate. Low-paying standard symbols: Rune Otal - up to 200x the rate, Rune Berkana - up to 200x the rate, and Rune Kano - up to 200x the rate.

Mobile Compatibility

Mobile Compatibility
Viking Runes looks and sounds as good on mobile phones as it does on PCs, thanks to the fact that Truelab created it using HTML5! You can play this game on any modern device, be it a mobile phone, tablet or computer. Enjoy the opportunity to be anywhere during the session but remember that you will need a good Wi-Fi connection and a flash player for this.

Bonus Rounds & Free Spins

8.9 

Modifiers

Having at least 1 modifier is already nice, but here you will have 3 of them! These are random modifiers that can appear both in the base game and in free spins. Only 1 can be activated in 1 cascade sequence and they work as follows:

  • Runic Shuffle is activated at a random loss and changes all symbols for a guaranteed win
  • Spell of Ancestor is triggered at the end of a win and changes all low-paying icons into one and the same high-value low-paid rune
  • Viking Sorcery, when activated, can add 3-9 icons in random order to the playing field at the end of the cascade sequence

Free Spins

After creating 5 cascading wins in a row, you get 6 free spins. Each free spin will spawn all 4 Lightning Wilds at the same time! They will move to new random positions on the playing field after each win. Each time Lightning Wild appears in a winning combination, its multiplier will be increased by +1. By the way, the multiplier has no upper limit! Unfortunately, there are no extra free spins or re-triggers, so long cascading wins are your only way to extend this amazing feature.

Bonus Buy

You can also activate Free Spins using the Bonus Buy option. This will cost you 215x your bet and will increase the theoretical RTP from 96.28% to 96.4%.

Viking Runes Demo Play

This is a highly volatile game and if you don’t feel ready to play for real money then we advise you to try it in demo mode first. By the way, the demo mode is already on this page! Just click "Play Demo" and start testing this game without spending a cent. In this mode, you can familiarize yourself with the gameplay by making bets with fun coins.

Max Win

10 
Create long cascades to earn up to 25,000x!
The bonus round with only 6 free spins without extra free spins and re-triggers can be short-lived if you are unlucky for cascading wins. However, when the guaranteed Wild Multipliers are pushed to a good level and the cascades continue to happen, huge payouts of up to 25,000x are possible! This potential is greater than in many similar slot machines.

Overall Rating

8.9

Finally, we got to see a provider who does everything right when it comes to imitation! The guys were inspired by the rather successful release of Viking Runecraft and released their own slot with a simplified concept and name. Together with simplifying the "complex" rules, they greatly improved the playing field and mathematical model. It hardly breaks the rules. We also liked the max win of 25,000x so the slot is definitely worth a try!
