How to play Exciting Vikings (members only)

Instead of fixed lines, matching symbols on adjacent reels pay in any position, starting from the leftmost reel. The more matching symbols there are on each reel, the more ways the combination pays.

Exciting Vikings is played on a 5×4 grid with 1,024 ways.

  1. Set your stake. Choose your total bet per spin between $0.20 and $300. Wins are paid as multiples of this stake.
  2. Check the paytable. Open the game's info screen to see what each symbol pays and the exact rules for this version.
  3. Spin. Each spin's result is decided by a certified random number generator, independent of previous spins.

How winnings work (members only)

What 96.01% RTP costs per $100 wagered, the 237x max win at a $1 stake

The top prize is capped at 237x your stake. On a $1 spin that is $237; on $0.20 it is $47.40. When the cap is reached the round usually ends immediately.

What 96.01% RTP means

Expected return = stake × 96.01%
Over $100 of total bets, the long-run average loss is $3.99

RTP is a long-run average across millions of spins. Any single session can finish far above or below it, especially on a low–medium volatility game.

The published hit frequency is 49.26%, meaning roughly one spin in 2.0 returns something — though many of those wins are smaller than the stake.

Features explained (members only)

What the info screen lists

No special features are listed for this game in the sources we checked. Check the in-game info screen for details.

Strategy tips (members only)

  • Size your stake to the volatility. Low-to-medium volatility gives fairly regular hits with occasional bigger features. It is a balanced choice for steady play and bonus wagering. A simple rule: bring at least 150 spins' worth of budget, so a $50 budget suggests a stake of about $0.33.

3 more tips and a session planner

  • Check which RTP version you're playing. Skywind offers this game at 96.01%, 94.01%, 92.02%. Open the game rules at your casino and prefer sites running the 96.01% version.
  • Bonus wagering: at 96.01% RTP, clearing $1,000 of wagering costs about $39.90 on average. Check the bonus terms, as some casinos exclude specific games. Run your numbers in the wagering calculator.
  • Set limits before you spin. Decide your loss limit and session time in advance and stop when you reach either. No pattern or betting system changes the outcome of a spin.
