Join Bjorn and his crew of fearless Shieldmaidens on their quest for vast riches in Bjorn to Be Wild, a five-reel video slot that benefits from 10 paylines. Visually impressive, the 2020 release offers the special BONUS reel, placed above the reel grid, which helps you trigger the Free Spins feature. The Lock & Roll feature allows you to lock the BONUS tiles, and also to turn regular icons into locked Wilds. Remember that the Lock & Roll feature comes with a price. During the Free Spins feature, all Wilds will be locked. Bjorn to be Wild has an RTP of 96.53%.
When talking about the base game, the rules are quite simple and you do not be an experienced Viking to understand how everything functions in Bjorn’s village. The 2020 release comes with 5 reels, 3 rows, and 10 fixed paylines. To win payouts, land at least three matching icons on a payline. The slot pays left to right, beginning from the leftmost reel. Betting starts at $0.10 per spin. Players cannot wager more than $25 per single spin. The game offers the Max Bet option on the left side of the Spin button, and Autoplay on the right side. Autoplay has no limits when it comes to how many automatic spins players can set.
Visit Bjorn’s village and see how Vikings and Shieldmaidens prepare for raids. Behind the reels, you will see houses of our heroes, as well as totems of Norse deities. Bjorn is the ruler of this village, and also the Wild that substitutes for all symbols. Furthermore, Bjorn is the top-paying icon of the game, offering 2,000 coins for five of a kind. Two Shieldmaidens are among high-value symbols, alongside a Ship, Horn, Axe, and Sword. Four Shields represent low-paying icons. BONUS letters represent Scatters that trigger free spins.
With every spin, there is a possibility to land BONUS letters on the special reel placed above the grid. Your goal is to land all 5 BONUS letters to trigger the feature. The Lock & Roll feature will allow you to lock the letters in their position for the next spin. You may also fill the blank positions with letters to trigger the feature, so we can say that this is a kind of a Bonus Buy feature. The Lock & Roll feature comes with another option. Punters can turn regular symbols into locked Bjorn Wilds. These Wilds will be locked for the following spin, and then will be removed from the grid. Remember that each of these extras comes with a price in the Lock & Roll feature.
When all 5 BONUS letters appear on the reels, the Free Spins feature starts. Spinners get 8 free spins with locked Wilds. Each Bjorn Wild that lands will lock in its position for the remainder of the feature. Each BONUS letter that lands on the special reel will also be locked. If you fill the entire special reel once again, the feature will be retriggered.
Bjorn to be Wild is an excellent video slot in every way. First, the visuals are crisp and clean, and the soundtrack will get you in the proper mood when you start spinning the reels. The Lock & Roll feature does come with a price, but it can be helpful when you try to land big winning combos and trigger free spins. Free spins with locked Wilds are a cherry on top, bringing hefty payouts, especially when plenty of Wilds are locked. The game provides you with more than enough reasons to put your Viking outfit on and join Bjorn on his quest.
