Amazing Link Odin Slot Review
A golden hall rises out of the cloudbanks at the end of a rainbow bridge, a bearded face carved into its gateway, jackpot plaques stacked down one side in gilded frames. For all that gilding, SpinPlay Games has built the least predictable game the Amazing Link series has produced: most of what it pays arrives through side doors rather than the paytable, and the bonus round is the only one in the family you assemble yourself.
The maths underneath runs at 96.40% RTP with medium-high volatility on a 5×3 grid with 20 fixed paylines, stakes from 0.20 to 50.00. The series engine carries over from Amazing Link Athena and Amazing Link Apollo, with one twist: the free spins round here is one you build yourself. How much that freedom is worth is what follows.
Base Game & Features
This is a five reel, three row slot with twenty fixed paylines. A payline is a pattern of adjacent positions running across the reels, and wins are paid when matching symbols land next to each other on one of them, left to right from the first reel.
If several winning combinations land on a single payline, only the highest is awarded, and the same applies per symbol combination. Your total payout for a spin is every payline win added together.
Three features hang off the base game, and each has its own way in:
- Amazing Link – six or more Amazing symbols anywhere on the reels
- Pick Feature – random, from Amazing symbols after a base game spin or an Amazing Link feature
- Free Spins – three Bonus symbols
The premium symbols are drawn from the mythology. Wolf leads the paytable, followed by Horse, with Helmet and Spear in the middle tier and the card royals below them. The values, as multiples of the line bet:
- Wolf – 5 pays 5x, 4 pays 2x, 3 pays 1x
- Horse – 5 pays 4x, 4 pays 1x, 3 pays 0.5x
- Helmet / Spear – 5 pays 3x, 4 pays 0.5x, 3 pays 0.3x
- A / K / Q – 5 pays 2x, 4 pays 0.4x, 3 pays 0.2x
- J / 10 / 9 – 5 pays 1x, 4 pays 0.3x, 3 pays 0.1x
The gap between tiers tells the story. A five-of-a-kind Wolf win is worth fifty times a five-of-a-kind royal, so the premiums carry nearly all the base game’s upside and everything below them is there to keep the balance ticking over.
Odin himself is the wild, substituting for everything except the Bonus and Amazing symbols, and he can form his own winning combinations too. He doesn’t pay more than the Wolf does, so he’s a connector rather than a target.
Amazing Link Feature
Land six or more Amazing symbols and the Amazing Link feature begins. The triggering symbols lock in place, each carrying a cash value, and you’re given three respins to land more.
Every additional Amazing symbol that lands locks too, resets the remaining respins back to three, and adds its cash prize to the board. Nothing pays until the feature is over.
Two things end the round: the respins running out, or all fifteen positions on the grid filling with Amazing symbols. At either point, every cash prize on the board is awarded together. Fill the grid completely and the MEGA prize is paid on top of everything collected.
It’s the classic hold-and-collect shape, and the reset rule means a single good run can keep the round alive for a long time.
Pick Feature
The Pick Feature is a random overlay on top of everything else. It fires from the Amazing symbols left on the reels once a spin or an Amazing Link feature has finished, with no warning and no pattern to read.
When it fires, you pick icons one at a time until you match three of the same jackpot icon. The match awards the corresponding prize from a four-step ladder:
- MEGA – the top prize, also paid for a full grid in the Amazing Link feature
- Major – second step
- Minor – third step
- Mini – the floor of the ladder
There’s no skill in the picks; the outcome is settled the moment the feature triggers. An autoplay option exists that selects the icons for you, and it changes nothing. The Pick Feature can’t trigger from inside Free Spins, which is the one place it’s locked out.
Amazing Link Odin Free Spins & Bonus Features
Three Bonus symbols trigger Free Spins, and this is where Odin parts company with the rest of the series. Instead of a fixed award, you choose your own round: the number of free spins and the number of Amazing Reels, trading one against the other.
Some selections are locked when you first arrive and unlock only through playing the feature, so the options widen the more rounds you trigger. It’s a progression system on a pick screen, and it gives the bonus a reason to be chased more than once.
Amazing Reels are the hook. They contain only Wild and Amazing symbols, so every spin of the round is a shot at the collect feature with wilds padding the paylines in between.
Bonus symbols keep working during the round. Each one that lands awards one extra free spin and upgrades the reel for the remainder of the feature, so a round that starts modestly can end up considerably stronger than the version you picked.
The upgrade path works step by step. A Bonus symbol lands, the spin count ticks up by one, and the reels shift for everything that follows. The choice you make at the start isn’t the round you necessarily play out, and bets and lines stay the same as the triggering spin throughout.
Our Honest Verdict
Overall Rating: 7.7/10
Playing Odin is a long walk up that rainbow bridge: mostly quiet, with the real payoff waiting behind the golden doors. You come for the free spins chooser, the one thing here you won’t find anywhere else in the series, and because the round you pick keeps improving while you play it, it stays worth chasing.
The strength is that everything feeds something. The Amazing Link respins can run for ages on a lucky reset, and the Pick Feature means even a losing spin can still end with a jackpot. The weakness is that the payline game itself barely matters; the symbols pay too little to carry a session, so you’re always playing for the features.
It’s a good homecoming for anyone who already enjoys the Amazing Link engine, and a gentle first step for newcomers who want the format with a bonus they can shape. Anyone who needs a stated win ceiling to aim at won’t find one here. For everyone else, Asgard is well worth the climb.
