Vikings are a perennial favorite of developers and punters both. It’s probably impossible to even count all the different offerings featuring these lovable pillages from the pages of history and Norse mythology.
Icy mountains, cold forests, damp boats, that’s what we all associate with the Nordic warriors.
But, developer Just for the Win is flipping the script. Tiki Vikings features tiki torches, masks, pineapples and more tropical paraphernalia than you can shake a stick at. Together with some stand-out features, this slot will make you rethink everything you know about Vikings.
Theme
So why is tropical stuff appearing suddenly in the icy climate of Northern Europe?
Well, the developer does have a valid explanation…
…the Vikings took a vacation.
Good for them to get away, they work hard.
But being what they are, they, of course, pillaged the vacation spot and brought back with them a bunch of interesting trinkets.
The wacky mix of themes actually works as we aren’t really used to seeing bamboo trees and tropical fruits covered with ice, so the developer gets brownie points for creativity.
As for the symbols
Aside from the standard card numbers we’re all used to, the center stage belongs to the merry band of bearded warriors who represent the high paying symbols.
Betting Options and Functions
The icy-hot game has five reels and three rows and 20 fixed paylines.
Punters can stake as little as 10 cents per spin, but high-rollers will be glad to find out that the maximum bet is a cool 250 euros and we think that’s quite hot.
Autoplay is featured here, with a max of 100 spins but without any advanced settings regarding win and loss limits.
Special Features
Tiki Vikings presents a refreshing take on special features by forging its own path.
No extra spins or wilds here….
…instead there are totally unique features centered around the high paying symbols – the titular Vikings.
When they form a winning combination they like to stick around, and this triggers a respin. If more high paying symbols appear in winning configurations they get frozen in place too.
This goes on for as long as new wins are created and is called “Symbol Lock Respin”.
Complementary to this is the “Symbol Upgrade” feature.
There is an ice gauge to the left and the right of the playing area. Every time symbols freeze a segment is added. After the third time, all symbols will be upgraded to their next higher paying neighbor.
Our Take
If this game seems wacky that’s because it is. A weird combination of motifs and themes that somehow just works.
And it sure does stand out from all the other Viking-themed slots of which there are many such as Iron Dog’s Viking Wilds.
Another stand-out is the unique and innovative features that make this offering feel totally different. Punters should definitely give this interesting mishmash a chance.
