Riches of Midgard: Land and Expand Slots
As the home of the humans that reside in Nordic mythology, Midgard is nearly as well-known as the earth of the Greek mythos and the Olympian pantheon that presides over it. As for Midgard, Thor, Odin, Freya, Loki, Balder and the other mighty denizens of Asgard often visited the world that they created, and intermingled with the humans aboard. This new video slot by Net Entertainment is a virtual ode to the lush Scandinavian country which, although often visited by ice, has some of the loveliest springtime blooms seen anywhere on the planet.
With 3 reels and just 9 paylines, Riches of Midgard: Land and Expand Slots slots isn't the biggest pokey we've ever seen but, what it lacks in size, it more than makes up for in the robustness of its other features. There are hotspot combinations, expanding wild symbols that replace and secure winning combos, triggerable respins, bonus rounds through which you can rack up free spins and many more.
Bonus Acquisition in Riches of Midgard: Land and Expand Slots Slots
The scatter symbols is, appropriately, Thor's thunderous hammer Mjolnir. This godly lump of craftsmanship was forged in the heart of a dwarf star, and then enchanted by the holy magic of none other than the allfather Odin, himself. The dwarves put it all together, and the god of thunder is better because of it.
In Riches of Midgard: Land and Expand Slots pokies, Mjolnir has to land at least three times on the reels in order for the special bonus round to activate and deliver free spins. For three of a kind of Mjolnir you receive 8 such spins; the more new scattered hammers land, the more spins are added to your current tally. The reels actually expand with each hit, up to a maximum of 7 rows and 29 paylines. The one caveat is that the scattered hammers must land on the third reel in order to trigger the gameboard expansion.
As for the other bonus symbol ability; this manifests as respins. For each matching icon, there is something called a "Hot Spot", which accepts these matching icons to trigger a respin for each pair. The reel will then be locked for this round as more and more retriggers occur to boost your winnings in the bonus round (as well as the base round, in fact).
Heavenly Norse Paytable
The other symbols are all characters that are indicative of Midgard, Asgard and the feasts of Valhalla. Starting things off with the most costly of the symbols (costly in the favor of the real money player, that is), we have allfather Odin. with his grizzled gray beard and rams horn mustache, three Odin symbols showing up at the same time are worth 15.00 euros - dollars if you're playing in the US. For two of a kind of the Odin symbol, this is the last payout for this particular icon combination, and it is worth 5.00 euros.
Golden-bearded Thor is the next valuable icon with a 7.00 euro payout for three of a kind. As the rightful heir of Asgard - though as we know from Ragnarok, he will never acquire the throne - two of a kind of the hammerer gets you 2.00 euros. Princess Freya, the goddess-wife of the Mighty Thor, also makes an appearance as a payout symbol on the reels. For three of her, you get 3.00 euros. For two of a kind of the goddess Freya icon you instead win $1.50 euros. The two final symbols are accouterments, starting with the Horn of Plenty. For three of a kind, this gets the player a 2.00 euro payout. For two Horn of Plenty icons you win 1.00 euros. The Rack of Lamb icon rounds out the paytable and, for three of a kind, pays out $1.00 euros; for two of the Rack of Lamb icons you win $0.50 euros.
