BONUSES
- Tumble Feature: Tumbles automatically activate after each winning combination. When they activate, they allow all previous winning symbols to disappear from their positions as soon as pays are awarded. This in turn paves the way for new symbols to land hence creating the possibility of successive winning combinations landing one after the other.
- Coin Collection: Any symbol featured in the Viking Forge slot except for the scatter may appear with a coin overlay symbol. When this happens, the coin overlay symbol takes a random value from a predefined set. The values may be multipliers ranging from 2x to 10x or they can be direct money awards ranging from 0.1x to 20x total bet. The values of all coin overlay symbols involved in a winning combination are collected into a meter. At the end of tumbles, the total amount currently in the meter is multiplied by the total bet and paid.
- Free Spin Feature: When four, five or six scatters land simultaneously, the free spins feature activates and awards 10, 20 or 30 free spins respectively. The values of the coin overlay symbols during this round are collected in a meter that lasts till the end of the feature. Landing any extra 3 scatters during the feature helps players retrigger an extra 5 free spins.
- Buy Free Spins: The game’s free spins round may be immediately triggered when players enable the Buy Free Spins feature and proceed to match and pay the stipulated feature purchase price.
