Pragmatic Play fires up Viking Forge, a move that showcases the company’s prominence in iGaming content creation and marks their recent expansion of offerings with the introduction of this exciting new slot game. It captivates with its Valhalla-inspired world, meticulously crafted and showcased on a 6×5 reel layout against a backdrop of rugged Nordic landscapes. Players find themselves amid symbols that resonate with the theme, including traditional weaponry, horns, and mead.

The gameplay is quite engaging and innovative, requiring participants to match eight or more symbols to claim a victory. This initiates the cascading feature, where new characters replace the successful ones, enhancing the potential for consecutive wins. Its design is such that it captures the essence of Norse mythology while incorporating modern slot mechanics.

A notable aspect of Viking Forge is the coin collection feature, which remains active during both the base game and the bonus rounds. It attaches randomly to symbols, offering players a chance at multipliers or cash prizes when these symbols form part of a winning combination.

Innovative Features and Enhanced Experience

When four or more scatter symbols land, the free spins round activates, providing a minimum of 10 free games. A distinctive element in this round is the accumulation of all coin values instead of awarding them after each tumble. This can lead to substantial wins, possibly achieving up to 10,000 times the initial bet.

Pragmatic Play enhances the experience with options like Ante Bet and Buy Bonus mode, available in certain jurisdictions.

 

  • The Ante Bet feature enables an increase in bet size, consequently enhancing the chances of more frequently triggering the bonus round. This aspect is particularly appealing to those keen on experiencing the game’s unique features promptly, without the usual wait for their natural occurrence during play.
  • On the other hand, the Buy Bonus mode provides an even more direct approach. Players can immediately access the bonus round by paying a premium, bypassing the regular play to enjoy the potentially higher rewards and excitement of the bonus features.

 

Additionally, there’s a standout feature in their collection being the “pays anywhere” mechanic which boosts the game’s appeal. This unique aspect allows players to win from symbols that land in any position on the reels, not just along specific pay lines.

Diverse Portfolio and Engaging Gameplay

Irina Cornides, Chief Operating Officer at Pragmatic Play, emphasizes the popularity of their mythological-themed games. She notes that combining these themes with the cascading wins mechanic is designed to appeal to a broad audience by offering a thrilling gaming experience.

Pragmatic Play’s portfolio also features other Viking-themed titles like Pub Kings, which are set against ancient stone structures and feature Nordic warriors. It offers a 5×4 grid with 20 pay lines. Another recent release is a sequel to the well-known Starlight Princess, titled Starlight Princess 1000. This new version retains the original’s charm, known for its vibrant gem artwork, and enhances the experience with a substantial multiplier feature.

How to Identify if a Casino Offers Pragmatic Play Games?

One practical approach for those interested in Pragmatic Play’s games is to consult sources like this The Sun Vegas Casino Review. These expert reviews often provide detailed insights into the available providers, ensuring casinos that offer their preferred gaming options can easily be found. Additionally, players can visit casino websites directly to check for Pragmatic Play’s offerings or even contact customer support for confirmation.

Pragmatic Play’s Viking Forge showcases the company’s skill in combining thematic depth with advanced mechanics. It offers an immersive, rewarding, entertaining experience, reflecting the company’s commitment to delivering high-quality content. As the portfolio expands, there will be more innovative and engaging slot games available that cater to a variety of preferences and playstyles.
