Base Game & Features
Loki’s Descendants is a highly volatile (5/5) slot with a 3-4-4-4-3 layout and 432 ways to win. Paytable symbols trigger winning payouts when 3, 4, or 5 land from reels 1-5, starting from the leftmost.
The Viking Helmet is the highest-paying symbol, followed by the Axe, Sword, Shield, Beer, and A, K, Q, J, & 10 card suits. Once the reels settle, each winning combination awards a fixed payout between 0.2x and 3x your bet. Wild symbols appear on reels 2, 3, & 4, substituting for all symbols as part of a win.
Special Features
Above the main reel set sit Fenfir, Hel, and the Serpent, who are responsible for triggering their respective Features at random:
- Serpent: Randomly adds 3 Wilds from reels 2 to 4, with the possibility of revealing a random Multiplier up to x100.
- Fenfir: Removes the 5 lowest-paying symbols from play, with the possibility of removing the next 2 or 3 high-paying symbols. New symbols of non-removed symbols will replace removed symbols for a chance to win bigger payouts.
- Hel: Randomly slices winning symbols into double, triple, or quadruplet instances, multiplying the number of ways to win up to x1,024.
Loki’s Descendants: Free Spins
Landing 3 Bonus Scatters on reels 1, 3, & 5 in the base game triggers the Free Spins mode, awarding 7 Free Spins. During this mode, at least 1 Serpent, Hel, or Fenfir feature will trigger on each spin.
Alternatively, having 2 Bonus Scatters and 1 Super Scatter on reels 1, 3, & 5 instantly triggers the Super Free Spins mode, awarding 7 Free Spins. In this mode, at least 1 Serpent, Fenfir, or Hel feature triggers twice in each spin.
Finally, landing 1 Bonus Scatter and 2 Super Scatters on reels 1, 3, & 5 guarantees the Monster Free Spins mode, where at least 1 Serpent, Fenfir, or Hel feature triggers three times for each spin.
Top Win
When all 3 Bonus Scatters happen to be Super versions on reels 1, 3, & 5, the game instantly awards the maximum win potential of 20,000x your bet.
Our Honest Verdict
Much like the shifting seasons, Red Tiger moves between light & dark themes, with Loki’s Descendants firmly in the latter camp. While darker themes tend to be more exciting, for us anyway, it’s ultimately the substance of the game that carries the most weight, but did the game’s features & mechanics do just that?
The 3-4-4-4-3 layout delivers 432 ways to win, moving away from traditional pay lines and putting players on the front foot straight away. With Hel, Fenfir, and the Serpent looming over the reels, each spin feels charged, especially as their linked features can trigger at any moment. It’s difficult to single out a clear frontrunner for potential, but the Hel Feature’s ability to slice through winning symbols certainly offers some compelling moments.
Free Spins is where the game steps up, with 3 versions available, including Super & Monster modes. Landing a stronger set of Bonus Scatters means an increase in potential payouts, as multiple Hel, Fenfir, & Serpent features trigger in each spin.
All in all, Loki’s Descendants creates a mix of engaging features and a solid 20,000x max win potential, wrapped in a dark theme that feels engaging and well executed.
