Spell of Odin Slot Machine
It’s not always that the dark side fascinates us as much as the bright one, if not more. But it has to be admitted that there’s so much of chutzpah crammed into some dark sides that it becomes impossible not to get allured to their hellish charms.
The story of Odin is a perfect example of this. Misguided and disillusioned, the Norse God of destruction as well as creativity took on his almighty fellows in what can only be described as the clash of titans. Thor’s side is all too well known and documented, but we rarely pay enough attention to the Odin angle of the story. 2x2 Gaming, with this fantastic slot named Spell of Odin, aims to bring to light this dark side – an approach rarely adopted by slot developers. A host of bonus features and high potential to turn your luck into solid wads of cash mean that Spell of Odin is certainly worthy of praise, adulation and more importantly, some fandom!
It’s a Brave Cold World!
Nordic mythology is among the greatest and grandest of all. Filled to the brim with characters that can only be called epic, these stories weave ideas with intent at such legendary proportions that you just cannot help but get sucked into the whirlwind they create.
2x2 Gaming, known around the world for their story based slots liek Secrets of the Tomb, has taken a few leaves out of this Nordic book of adventures and turned them into a remarkably attractive slot. It looks good, it feels good, it plays good and it certainly pays well!
All you need to do is show up with some tantalizing luck, spin these ice cold reels monitored by gods and men, and hope for the very best! When you’ve god the almighty god of the gods on your side, we think it’s safe to stay put and chase the glory.
Wagering in Spell of Odin
This should be a cakewalk for veteran slotters. There are 5 standard reels depicting various Nordic goddesses and artefacts, assisted by 25 flexible paylines that you can manipulate to make the most of your bets.
You are allowed to put at stake up to 20 coins per line, bringing the total number of coins that can be wagered per spin as high as 500! These 500 coins can all be valued uniformly between 1 cent and 20 cents. In essence, the total range of bets you can make here per spin is up to $100.
We agree that this is not really a huge number that high rollers and margin manipulators would be swooning over. So, basically, Spell of Odin can be safely classified as a slot that’s tailor made for beginners – especially because there is a free slot mode to warm up your lucky stars!
Symbols of Unprecedented Power
If there is one common denominator among symbols used in Spell of Odin, it has to be the sense of power they evoke. From flashily designed card faces to weapons of imminent doom, these symbols add a huge entertainment factor to the gameplay.
The ones that pay out the highest, however, are symbols depicting three alluring demi goddesses who can turn your tiring day into a mightily lucrative affair with up to 800 coins being dished out for 5-of-its-kind combos. The blonde and the brunette of this lot are stacked, and can be converted into a full-blown expanding symbol feature if you get a special bonus symbol (it’s not too hard to locate it – it reads ‘BONUS’ in big, fat font).
Power and Glory
To chase the glory successfully, however, power doesn’t always suffice. You need a bit of luck to get past the line, and that’s where the special symbols of this slot will come to help you.
The wild of this slot appear only on the third reels and can substitute for any regular symbol – including the symbols depicting goddesses. The scatter symbol doubles up all the bets on active paylines as long as it appears at least 3 times, anywhere in view. But that’s not all – with this gift, you get another freebie in the form of free spins (up to 20).
Who knew these gods could be this kind?
Odin Casts a Spell
The feature that appealed the most to us here was that of stacked goddess symbols. It can really combine together with the rest of the gameplay to award you huge stacks of coins – a real boost for those who fail to utilise special symbols.
So, get spinning and get winning – the might of Odin is watching out for you!
