Viking’s Treasure

Viking's Treasure is one of NetEnt's older pokies, a five reel Norse adventure of longships, shields and horned helmets that first appeared back in 2006. Australian players who look up the Viking's Treasure slot or its RTP will find a no fuss game that leans on atmosphere rather than a busy feature list, with a moody sea soundtrack and chunky Viking artwork. You can try it here in a free demo, and the casinos listed on this page work in Australian dollars, though as we explain below the legal position for online pokies in Australia is a strict one.

How Viking's Treasure plays

The game uses five reels and three rows with 15 fixed paylines, so you simply set your stake and spin. The Viking symbol is the wild. It substitutes for all of the regular symbols except the scatter, and any winning line the wild completes is doubled, which lifts a lot of the ordinary wins. Landing enough scatter symbols across the reels triggers the free spins round, and every win during that round is tripled. The real highlight is when the doubling wild lands inside a tripled free spin, since the two multipliers work together on the same line.

Viking's Treasure RTP, volatility and max win

Viking's Treasure has an RTP of 95.9%, a touch under the current average but typical for a NetEnt release of this vintage. The volatility is medium, so the game pays at a fairly steady rhythm instead of holding everything back for rare big wins, which suits players who like a longer session. The maximum win is worth up to 4,808 times your stake, produced by the doubling wild and the tripled free spins combining. Medium variance keeps the bankroll fairly stable while you wait for the scatters to line up.

Playing Viking's Treasure in Australia

It is important to be clear about the law here. Under the Interactive Gambling Act 2001, online pokies and casino games cannot be licensed for, or advertised to, Australians, so any casino offering Viking's Treasure for real money does so under an offshore licence rather than an Australian one. Nothing on this page is locally regulated. The free demo above needs no account and no money, and it is the safe way to see the game. If you do play at an offshore casino, understand that it sits outside Australian consumer protection.

Is Viking's Treasure worth playing?

As a game, Viking's Treasure holds up well for fans of classic pokies. The doubling wild and tripling free spins are simple but effective, the Norse theme is nicely done, and the medium volatility makes it easy to pick up. It clearly shows its age next to modern titles, yet that stripped back design is exactly why some players still return to it. Play within your means, treat it as entertainment rather than income, and read our responsible gambling guide for Australian players before you start.
