Vikings Go Wild is Yggdrasil's seafaring Norse pokie, a bright cartoon of four battling Vikings sailing rough waters against a sea siren, and it has held a loyal Australian audience since it launched in 2015. Australians who search the Vikings Go Wild pokie or its RTP tend to come for the characterful crew and stay for the sticky wilds that can stack up during the free spins. You can try the free demo above in play money, with no account and no deposit, and see the treasure chest bonus work before deciding whether it fits your budget in AUD.
How Vikings Go Wild plays
Vikings Go Wild is built on a 5 reel, 3 row grid with 25 fixed paylines, paying from left to right along set lines. In the base game the Vikings Go Wild feature can turn one of the crew into a wild to help complete a line. The heart of the game is the free spins, opened by landing enough treasure chests: there, a victorious Viking becomes a sticky wild that stays locked for the rest of the round, so the more the crew wins their battles the more wilds hold in place. A treasure chest during the feature awards a mystery win and can hand you even more spins, so a good run can build wild reels that keep paying spin after spin.
Vikings Go Wild RTP, volatility and max win
Vikings Go Wild has a published RTP of 96.3 percent, close to the industry average and a reasonable return for a game of its vintage. It is a low to medium volatility pokie, so wins land at a reasonably regular pace rather than in rare spikes. Yggdrasil does not publish a single headline max-win multiple for this title, so the top potential comes from long free spins runs where the sticky wilds stack up rather than from one fixed ceiling. The figures in the stats panel above reflect the numbers we could verify.
Playing Vikings Go Wild in Australia
Vikings Go Wild can be played at the online casinos serving Australian players shown on this page, in Australian dollars once you have an account with one of them. It is worth being clear on the rules: under the Interactive Gambling Act 2001, online casino and pokie games cannot be licensed for or advertised to people in Australia, so the operators listed here hold licences offshore rather than any Australian licence. The free demo at the top of the page is play money only and needs no account or deposit, letting you explore the sticky-wild free spins in full before deciding whether to play for real at an offshore-licensed casino from the list.
Is Vikings Go Wild worth playing?
Vikings Go Wild earns its place if you enjoy a characterful theme and free spins built around sticky wilds that reward a good run. The stacking wilds give every battle real weight, the treasure chest keeps the round interesting, and the low to medium variance keeps things steady. Players chasing only a single huge fixed prize may find it less to their taste, since the value here is built on momentum. Decide on a limit before you spin, and if gambling ever stops being fun, step away and read our responsible gambling advice.
