Review
Join the five fierce Viking lady warriors in an intense reel clash on the slot from 1×2 Gaming. The Battle Maidens are on a quest to reclaim the mighty hammer of the Norse gods, each having been given one powerful virtue that will modify the reels, spawn random wilds, create expanding wilds or multiply wins. They will combine their powers in a high-volatility free spins round that can lead to wins of up 20,000 times your stake.
Slot Details
Battle Maidens is a video slot with five reels, three rows and 1,024 ways to win. Pays are awarded for three to five matching symbols on adjacent reels from left to right only. Naturally, this can be in combination with wilds. You can be part of the Viking crew on desktop or mobile from 0.20 to 20 credits per spin. The game has high volatility (4/5) with an RTP of 96%.
Viking longships moored just offshore can be seen in the background of an iron-framed game window, indicating the hoard of warrior women has made landfall to go into battle. A rugged scene from the Northern lands complements the intense gameplay that is dominated by the five fierce maidens as they unleash their powers when they land on their designated reel. An epic soundtrack complements the action-filled reel clash.
Iron-style card royals from J through to A are at the low end of the paytable, awarding 0.4x to 0.6x your bet for a single five of a kind. They are followed by Viking helmets, hunting horns, battle axes, Yggdrasil coins, dragon medallions and a sword and shield set. Hit five across the reels to win 1.25x to 12.5x your stake.
A fire icon marked with the word itself is the wild symbol, appearing on reels two to six only and performing the usual substitutions duties. The five battle maidens – Hellevi, Eldfrid, Alfhild, Snefrid and Solvej – are the scatters, each appearing on its own designated reel from left to right.
Battle Maidens Slot Features
Get ready for an intense reel session when you start playing with the fierce Norse warriors. They are at the centre of the action as they will trigger the only feature when three or more land in one spin. You will get 10 Free Spins with the modifiers and extras associated with the triggering battle maidens. The number of scatters that triggered the bonus round determines how many modifiers will be active throughout the feature. While the maidens appear on their designated reel only during the base game, they can land on any reel in the free spins.
- Hellevi – Reel 1 in the base game: Every time she appears on any reel in a free spin and will turn herself and a random number of other symbols in view into wilds.
- Eldfrid – Reel 2 in the base game:Â During the free spins, appearing on any reel will see her turning into a wild which will stay sticky for the following free spin.
- Alfhild – Reel 3 in the base game: Landing her on any reel on a free spin will award +2 extra free spins, no limits.
- Snefrid – Reel 4 in the base game:Â Every time she lands on any reel in a free spin, she will increase the win multiplier by x1.
- Solvej – Reel 5 in the base game: Every time she lands on any reel in a free spin and is part of a winning combo she will turn into an expanded hammer wild to cover the entire reel.
Eager to go to battle and not wait for an organic feature trigger? Then the ‘Buy A Feature‘ button is just right for you, that is, if you reside in a country that has not restricted feature buys. Clicking on the button will take you to a second screen from where you can pick three of the maidens to be active for your round. Based on the win potential it will cost you a one-time stake of 35x to 75x your base bet. Once confirmed, the game will start a bonus round with 10 free spins and the chosen modifiers.
Final Verdict
Viking-themed slots are usually delivering an intense gameplay that is filled with suspense, dramatic sound effects, stunning animations and cliffhanger-style features. 1×2 Gaming chose an all-female cast for their Battle Maidens slot and created a high-volatility reel clash with a win potential to match the fierce warriors. While the base game can be at times a drag, the slot comes to life the soon you enter the bonus round, but beware, just like the fiery maidens, it can be extremely volatile.
