Volatile Vikings 2 Dream Drop Slot Review

Volatile Vikings 2 Dream Drop Slot RTP, Details & Wager Limits

The Volatile Vikings 2 Dream Drop slot is played out on 6 reels, 5 rows, and uses the Scatter Pays mechanic. Wins are formed by landing 8 or more of the same symbol on the reels. Whenever a winner lands, those symbols are removed to make way for new symbols. This sequence continues until no further winners are formed.

Bet from just 20p up to £100 per spin. All you need to do to adjust your stake is use the + and – buttons on either side of the bet value below the reels. You can also press the bet value to bring up some set values that you can choose from. Autospins and turbo spins are also possible if you’re outside the UK.

The Volatile Vikings 2 Dream Drop RTP is 94.8%, which is on the low side when you consider the online slot average is 96%. But this is purely down to the huge jackpots on offer, so its lower RTP is understandable. 12% of the RTP percentage is reserved for the jackpots. The hit frequency is also low at 20.04%, which means that a 5th of all spins on average will result in a winner.

The maximum win is 10,000 x your stake if you exclude any jackpots. This is lower than the original Volatile Vikings slot, which has max wins of 20,000 x your stake. However, the Mega jackpot can hit up to 3 million Euros, so it’s not too disappointing to see a non-jackpot max win of 10,000x.

Theme – a Nordic adventure

The theme in the Volatile Vikings 2 Dream Drop slot game is all about Nordic warriors with the reels set in what looks like a very traditional Nordic house with beer everywhere. It’s as though the Norse explorers had taken a well-earned rest during the Viking expansion. Although a lot of the game is similar to the original, the setup is completely different as that was set on a frozen port.

The visuals are great, the colours are very bold and grab your attention, and there’s a relaxing soundtrack that will appeal to many. It doesn’t have me reaching for the mute button which is always a good sign.

On the reels, you’ve got different coloured rune symbols that pay the lowest values. These are joined by the higher-paying faces, which come in numerous colours too. The Red Boar face is the most lucrative symbol, paying up to 50 x your stake for 12 or more in view on the reels.

There’s no Wild in the game but you do have a Bonus symbol. 3 of these will trigger the Free Spins feature.

Volatile Vikings 2 Dream Drop Bonus Features

There are 3 main bonus features in the Volatile Vikings 2 Dream Drop slot game. You’ve got a fun Multiplier Reveal feature, a typical Free Spins bonus round and the all-important Dream Drop Bonus, which is something completely new when comparing it to the original. Let’s explain how they all work…

Multiplier Reveal feature

You will see 2 Multiplier Reveal symbols on each spin – 1 on reel 3 and 1 on reel 4. They both have a counter and a multiplier on them. The counter will decrease by 1 for each winning cascade in the same spin.

Once the counter hits zero, the multiplier part is then activated and will destroy up to 8 adjacent symbols, which will make room for new symbols to fall into place. Once a multiplier value has been revealed, 1 of the new symbols dropping into place will be another multiplier.

Free Spins feature

3 or more Bonus symbols in the Volatile Vikings 2 Dream Drop slot base game will trigger the Free Spins feature and give you 6 free spins. If you land 4, you’ll get 7, land 5 and you’ll get 8 and so on.

The Multiplier Reveal feature is very much active here too and will add up any revealed multipliers as well as become a persistent multiplier that applies at the end of each spin.

Dream Drop Bonus feature

The Dream Drop bonus feature can be triggered randomly on any normal spin in the base game. During the bonus round, you can land crate symbols that get destroyed or Dream Drop symbols that stay on the reels. The Spins continue until 1 of the reels is filled by Dream Drop symbols. You will then receive the corresponding jackpot.

There are 5 jackpots that can be won:

Volatile Vikings 2 Dream Drop Review Summary – lucky it’s got the jackpots

The Volatile Vikings 2 Dream Drop slot is a solid game due to the huge jackpots on offer in the Dream Drop Bonus. But if you take that away then it really does seem worse than the original in my honest opinion – lower max win potential, high variance, lower RTP and a lower hit frequency.

I prefer the graphics here though as it’s certainly a lot crisper than the original slot. The soundtrack is pleasant too as the visuals are just a lot better here.

But let’s not get away from the fact that it’s a very volatile slot, which is why it’s got the title it has. You will no doubt be working towards the Dream Drop Bonus and the chance to land a huge jackpot, but most of the time you will be enjoying Free Spins and working towards the non-jackpot max win of 10,000 x your stake. The average win in the Free Spins feature is 89.81 x your stake, which is pretty good.

Overall, the Dream Drop Bonus is what makes this game better than the original. If you don’t care too much for that, play the original. But stick with this one and you might just randomly land one of the 5 jackpots on offer.
