Asgard seems to be a popular theme in online slots. Asgard from Realtime Gaming and Asgardian Stones from NetEnt were released not that long ago. Fortunes of Asgard has been announced by Microgaming and is awaiting release. Meanwhile Pragmatic Play has launched its video slot titled Asgard at online casinos like InterCasino.

As far as the artwork and theme are concerned there is nothing really new in the Pragmatic Play Asgard slot. For the few InterCasino players who may still be unaware, Asgard is the abode of the Norse gods. The reels are set in a beautiful valley, probably the location of Asgard. The high paying symbols are the Norse gods that have been seen in so many slot games before. The pantheon is headed by Odin the king of the gods. Then there are the beautiful Freya, Thor the god of thunder and the mischievous Loki. The low paying symbols are the playing card icons also known as royals. Asgard is the wild symbol and awards the highest line payouts. The bonus symbol seems to be out of the ordinary. It appears to be helmet Tarnhelm that made the wearer invisible. Three of these symbols award a payout of 2x the total bet and trigger the free spins feature.

It is in the gaming features that this Asgard video slot stands out. There are four features that may be randomly triggered in a spin in the base game. In Royals Transform to Wilds all royals on the screen at the end of a spin will change to Asgard. Payouts will be awarded after the replacement. In Stacked Wild Reels randomly chosen reels will turn fully wild. In the Mystery Stacked Symbol, Yggdrasil the world tree in Norse mythology appears stacked on the reels. At the end of the spin this symbol will transform into any one of the regular symbols. In the Raining Wilds feature, 3 4 or 5 wild symbols are randomly added to the reels. If there is no win after a random feature is activated them a compensatory payout equal to the total bet is awarded.

At the start of the free spins one type of feature is randomly selected. The pool contains four features that are essentially the same as the randomly triggered base game ones. Each of the features awards 5 free spins that are played on a different set of reels. The free spins cannot be retriggered.
