THE PITCH

Due to launch exclusively with Svenska Spel Sport & Casino, Yggdrasil’s latest slot will involve players battling Sweden’s elements across three alternating zones including misty forests, ice-cold rivers and rugged mountains, while on the lookout for valuable, ferocious creatures, each one with their own unique habitat.

GAME DETAIL

Great variation is offered in a single play session – after playing in one zone for a while, the game will automatically alternate to a new zone.

Players need to keep their wits about them and make no sudden movements, especially when bears come onto the reels, using their razor-sharp claws to swipe at the reels, bringing additional wilds and potential big wins.

Avoid the charging Moose as it tears into trees to reveal multipliers, and beware of the pouncing Wolf, who summons a member of his pack to uncover a duplicate wild, rewarding slot fans with even more chances to win.

No trip to the Nordics would be complete without a glimpse of the Northern Lights, one of nature’s most spectacular phenomena. Hit three or more scatters and dusk descends revealing a magnificent night sky and a greater chance to see more majestic beasts with the potential for higher wins.

WHAT THEY SAY

Jonas Strandman, Senior Product Strategist at Yggdrasil, stated: “As a Swede myself, the theme is very close to my heart. Players enjoy a perfect blend of tranquillity by being close to nature combined with the raw power of the Nordic wilderness.

“This is a high-quality production that we’ve developed for our valued partner and that we believe will be a big hit.”
