Viking's Conquest by MGA Games is a five-reel, ten-payline slot with a Norse theme and a 3-row layout. The game uses fixed paylines and a medium-volatility structure, with wins available from left to right and, in some rulesets, from right to left. The design features Viking imagery, while the paytable includes themed symbols such as a warrior, shield, axe, sword, helmet and coins.
The Viking symbol works as the Wild, substituting for most symbols to complete winning combinations. Shield symbols act as Scatter symbols and can trigger the free spins round when three or more land on the reels. In the free spins feature, more shields can increase the number of spins awarded and may also apply multipliers to wins, making it a key part of the game's mechanics.
Players can use the demo version to play for free and practice before playing for real money. The game also includes a bonus round, activated by five shield symbols on a payline, where a choice-based mini-game can award 5x, 10x or 15x the current bet.
