Myths and legends make the world a more interesting place. They also stir the imagination and inspire creativity. Slots creators are like artists and are always on the lookout for the next big thing to base slot games on. Superheroes are a major draw but so is culture and history and the mythology that both create. With this in mind, here is a snapshot of some great slots at Thor Slots that have been inspired by mythology.
Hall Of The Gods Slot
Hall Of The Gods is a slot from the popular NetEnt studios. It is played on 5 reels and has 20 paylines. It can be played on all devices and stakes start at 20p. It’s a slot based on Norse mythology and it offers punters a chance to win 3 progressive jackpots. It’s a low to medium variance slot and this roughly means that with a hit frequency of 37.19%, you can expect a win every 3 or so spins. The RTP stands at 95.7%, which is a little disappointing but if you factor in the fact that this is a progressive jackpot slot, then this works out as an industry standard score. 1% of your staking money feeds the 2 smaller jackpots and 5% goes towards the Mega Jackpot that can sometimes exceed £1 million. The base game is entertaining enough but it also comes armed with 3 bonus features.
There is a Free Spins feature, an expanding Midgard Serpent wild symbol on the middle reels and a Pick Win bonus round. Odin’s Raven acts as the scatter symbol and 3 or more triggers a 3x multiplier free spins round. 3 scatters offer 10 free spins, 4, 15 free spins and 5, 20 free spins. The bonus can be retriggered with more scatters and the expanding wilds remain in play during the free spins round. 3 of Thor’s Hammers landing anywhere on the reels triggers the Pick and Win feature. Here you get to pick shields and you continue to pick until you match 3 cash prizes or 3 of the same jackpots including the Mega one.
Age Of The Gods: King Of Olympus Slot
Playtech have a real soft spot for Greek Mythology and it has been the creative driving force behind their Age Of The Gods series of slots. Age Of The Gods: King Of Olympus is a 5-reel slot with 3 rows and although it lacks the number of features other slots in the series have, it is still by far the most enjoyable to play. There are 4 jackpots up for grabs and these are the Ultimate Power, Super Power, Extra Power and Power.
If you land 3 or more Zeus symbols, this triggers 10 free spins with increasing multipliers that stop at x6. The bonus is fun and contains some 3D graphics that enhances the round further.
Vikings Go Berzerk
Vikings Go Berzerk is a multilayered slot from Yggdrasil Gaming and it contains mythological creatures as well as the Vikings from the tile. It’s packed full of features and is another worthy mythology base slot entrant.
