What you're spinning

Discover Book of Vikings

Norse theme with big win potential. Book of Vikings is a five-reel, three-row slot set in a Norse theme. You'll find ten fixed paylines that run left to right across the reels. The game launched in 2021 and carries a high volatility, which means wins come less often but can be much bigger when they land. It features expanding symbols, free spins, a scatter and wild symbols that shape how each round plays out.

Who should play this slot? This slot suits players who enjoy chasing larger wins and have a bankroll for the swings. The range of bets from A$0.10 to A$250 lets you set your own pace, but the high volatility means your session can move quickly in either direction. If you prefer steady, frequent wins over dramatic swings, you'll want to weigh that against your play style.

How free spins reshape your odds. The free spins mode is what tilts the entire game. Land three or more Book symbols and you get ten free spins. Before they start, one symbol expands vertically to fill a reel and pays anywhere it forms a winning combination. Land three Books again during the round and you get ten more spins, with no limit to how many times this can happen. Free spins are what most players chase.

From bet to result

Set the bet amount

You set your bet before each spin, choosing from A$0.10 up to A$250. The game shows your stake on screen so you can adjust it anytime between rounds.

When does a win land?

The reels spin across 5 reels and 3 rows on 10 fixed paylines. When two or more matching symbols land on a line reading left to right from the first reel, you collect the win for that line.

What happens after each spin

Most spins bring no win and the reels reset for your next bet. Winning symbols on active paylines add to your balance before the next spin begins.

Book symbol triggers bonus

Land 3 or more Book symbols anywhere on the grid and you trigger Free Spins mode. One symbol type then expands to fill entire reels during your bonus round.

Set spending boundaries

Before you play, you can set deposit limits or session time limits through the game menu to control your spending and time at the slot.

When the bonus triggers
1

What triggers the free spins round?

Three or more Book symbols anywhere on the grid trigger 10 free spins. Before the round starts, one symbol is randomly chosen to expand vertically and fill its entire reel. This expanding symbol pays anywhere on the reels, not just adjacent positions. Three or more Book symbols during the bonus round award 10 more spins, with no limit to retriggers.

Book of Vikings base game layout

The base game runs across 5 reels and 3 rows with 10 fixed paylines that pay from left to right starting at the leftmost reel. You need at least 2 matching symbols to form a win on a payline. Only the highest win per payline is paid, but wins across multiple paylines add together for your total.

The honest limits

No session plays the same as the last, no matter the RTP

Understand what skill cannot control, so you set realistic expectations from the start

Bonus timing stays hidden

The Book symbol that triggers free spins appears when it chooses. You cannot count on reaching 3+ Books in any session, whether it takes 10 spins or 100. Bonus rounds arrive as the game decides.

Your session is random

Two players with identical bets see different results because each spin is random. The 96.50% RTP describes what happens across thousands of spins at this casino, not what you will see in one session.

Book of Vikings tops out at a$1.375m

Book of Vikings can pay up to A$1,375,000 at the maximum bet, but this ceiling is reached almost never. The top prize exists in the game rules, not in reasonable expectations for your play.
