Asgard Warriors Review
1×2 Gaming has a varied catalog of games by now, and this time they’ve taken a stab at the vikings genre. Asgard Warriors comes with a static backdrop of a beautiful nordic fjord, and the symbols are equally static. This gives the game a somewhat dated appearance, which may or may not be intentional. Either way, you’re not gonna get tons of lively action and features here.
The biggest drawback however, is the 94.56 % RTP, a stat that’s almost unforgivably low unless you’re sporting some serious progressive jackpots. No such thing can be found in this game however, as it’s mostly about the bonus round where both the multiplier and extra spins increase per scatter you land. The base game offers a high value spin once in a while, but that’s mostly to keep you afloat in the highly volatile grind.

Asgard Warriors slot Features
The Viking Longship wild steps in for all regular symbols to help you form winning combos. The wild does not hold any value of its own. You trigger the Warrior Spin feature when you land a full stack of matching character symbols on reel 1 in the base game. Only the 3 premium character symbols, as well as wilds, can land on the following spin.
You trigger the Bonus Round with 8, 12 or 16 free spins, respectively, when you land 3, 4 or 5 skull scatters anywhere in sight. You will now benefit from a progressive multiplier that starts at x1, and it increases for every scatter you land. You basically increase the multiplier value with the same amount as the number of extra spins you get. To clarify, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 scatters awards +1, +2, +3, +4 or +5 multiplier increments and free spins, respectively.
The 200 Spins Asgard Warriors slot Experience
We have a pretty brief highlights video for you this time. You’ll get half a minute with base game grind, before the bonus round hits at 0:34 into video. You’ll then see the free spins feature play out for the remaining minute or so, but you need to press the play button to see how much, or how little, we got away with.
Review Summary
1×2 Gaming has made a fairly simple game this time, and there is nothing in the static visual presentation that will immediately suck you in. The semi-realistic, cartoon-style graphics are neatly done, but some animated symbols would have injected a certain aliveness that’s missing in Asgard Warriors. It boils down to the features and the stats in other words, and they are a mixed bag.
The Warrior Spins can dish out a decent base game win here and there, but you’re still a sinking ship with the measly 94.56 % RTP. We don’t see anything in this game that justifies such low theoretical returns, and it’s pretty much a deal-breaker in our book. The bonus round multiplier grows in leaps and bounds, which can be exciting, and the 4,000x potential is also decent. Overall, there is nothing too memorable here though, especially not in a sea of better viking-themed alternatives.
Pros
- Warrior spin w/ only premiums and wilds
- Bonus round w/ increasing multiplier
- Win up to 4,000x your stake
Cons
- RTP of 94.56 % is well below average
