Nordic Song Slots
Pack your warmest clothes and get ready for a trip beyond the Arctic Circle! Because this is where Nordic Song will be taking you.
This Casino Technology video slot game that explores the Sami culture, a fascinating people living in the northernmost parts of Sweden, Finland and Norway. Expect to see a lot of snow and colourful traditional costumes during your stay! And if you are lucky, even some sizeable cash rewards.
So without further ado, let’s dive into this lesser-known Nordic culture and find out how make the best of your stay.
Icy but Friendly Surroundings
Nordic Song takes place in an undetermined location close to the Artic Circle in Northern Scandinavia. As such, you might be expecting a dark a frozen desert to great you as you begin your game.
Even if the background is indeed rather dark and devoid of details, many snowflakes and heaps of white snow give off a sort of Christmas-like, friendly atmosphere. What could have been a gloomy and depressing setting is transformed into simple but quiet and rather beautiful surroundings.
The background music is also rather joyful and Christmassy, and all these elements combine to give Nordic Song a lighter and more pleasant atmosphere than you could have expected at first.
Prepping the Sledge
The settings in Nordic Song are straightforward, with five reels and 25 possible paylines to bet on.
Once you have decided on a coin value, use either the side tabs that flank the reels or the switch below them to activate as many paylines as you would like. Use the switch next to it in order to set the amount of coins to bet per spin, and you are all set. The game will let you bet at many as 20 coins on 25 paylines, for a maximum bet of 500 coins per spin. Once you are ready, simply hit the blue Start button to get the reel spinning. Once they have come to a stop, winning combinations consisting of sequences of identical symbols on an activated payline will pay from left to right. The corresponding cash reward is added to your credit total. To spice up the game and take a chance at bigger wins, try the optional Gamble function to play a mini game against the computer: guess correctly the colour of a hidden card to double your earnings, and guess its suit to quadruple them! Repeat the operation as long as you dare, but keep in mind that a mistake will take all your new coins away and abruptly end the mini game.
Another way to play is to use the Autoplay feature to let the game roll for as many spins in a row as you would like (you can decide how many autospins you want to trigger). By doing so, you will not be able to play the Gamble mini game and instead enjoy an uninterrupted gaming session. Pick the style that fits your mood best!
Adorable Fauna and Cheerful Locals
Let’s now take a closer look at the paytable of Nordic Song. Here too, the atmosphere is far from gloomy.
We begin at the very bottom of the menu with some classic symbols which most players will be familiar with: a number 10, Jack, Queen, King and Ace. Their rewards are lower than for other symbol combinations, but you will see them appear often on the reels.
We continue upwards with a Husky and an Arctic Owl, both looking quite realistic and frankly adorable. They are worth at least twice as much as the more basic symbols. And after them come a local Woman and Man, wearing traditional red Sami garments and a bright smile on their faces.
Two More Special Icons
In order to spice up your game a little, and maximise your chances at scoring the jackpot, let’s make sure you know everything there is to know about the special reel symbols of Nordic Song.
The first one of them is a friendly-looking Reindeer, acting as the Wild card of the game. It can appear on every reel except the first one, and can replace any basic symbol to form new winning combinations.
The wooden House icon is the Scatter in Nordic Song, which means that it can trigger a reward regardless of its position on the reels. It can only appear on the 1st, 3rd and 5th reels and three Houses award a 12 Free Spin Bonus round!
On Song!
Nordic Song boasts a friendly atmosphere, probably warmer than you would expect given its Nordic location! The Free Spins and Gamble option will make it interesting for most players.
Unfortunately, the low rewards in comparison to other slot games also make Nordic Song stand out, but not for the good reasons, as this game won't offer you the big wins of competing titles like Nordic heroes.
