If Asgard seems like a familiar name, it could be because of two reasons. Firstly, it is big in Norse mythology. Secondly, it was the name of a slot game released a few years ago. Asgard Deluxe is a bigger and bolder version of that… but is it any better? We are going to find out by loading and playing it and reviewing it here.
No change in the developer name
We didn’t think there would be, and we have the team at RTG at the helm again for this one.
We also have a chance to practice first
RTG is well known for offering demo games, and they’ve added this version to Asgard Deluxe as well.
Back to Norse mythology for this theme
You don’t need to know too much about the mythology of the Norse gods, as you’ll pick it up during the game. You’ll meet four gods along the way, too.
Details, design, and drama
While the original Asgard slot looked fine, there is a clear leap ahead for this one. We can point to the details that bring each character alive, along with plenty of color and depth to the whole thing.
Let’s play: What to expect in Asgard Deluxe
Let’s have the basics first. The usual 5 x 3 game format is used here, along with a single progressive prize appearing just above the reels.
We also have several vital symbols to hunt down on the reels. Two are wilds, each shown as a W inside a disc. However, they do vary. The standard wild shows a yellow-gold W on a blue disc. They only appear in one set of free games though. The multiplying wild has a green W on a gold disc (or it could be bronze… it’s hard to tell). This carries a 2x multiplier. It can’t sub for the scatter though, shown as a purple tree.
Paylines available in Asgard Deluxe
We don’t have any in this game – instead there are all 243 ways you might find prizes from the first reel over to the fifth.
The game has a 30x bet multiplier
This means that whichever coin you want to play with, you need to multiply it by 30 to reach your spin bet. It also confirms the cheapest bet to go with is 30 cents. There are other values too though.
Don’t forget to check the paytable
This explains all the rules and shows you what all the symbols look like. It will help you understand the differences between the wilds, and how each one comes into play.
Expect a random bonus to appear
You never know when this might happen, as it is indeed random. However, it is a wild reel, so any spin might lead to you finding one or more reels going completely wild. And yes, this does mean you might see all the reels doing this.
Free spins for players in Asgard Deluxe
Find three scattered trees and you will go to a screen that allows you to choose how to play your spins. Each option comes with between 15 and 30 games, along with an added feature. One has bursting wilds, another has a 3x prize multiplier, a third has multiplying wilds, and another has cascading wins, so you can choose how you want to play the round.
No idea of the RTP
And that is usually the case with Realtime Gaming slots, as you may already know.
Our rating: How high are we going to go with Asgard Deluxe?
There is enough here to give this one an 8/10 rating. With two wilds, various features in four picks for the free spin round, and beautiful details throughout, it’s a superb slot to try.
How much could you receive in prizes?
The largest single prize is 2,000x your bet. However, with a progressive in play too, this could end up going higher.
Demo action is the perfect introduction to the game
If you played the original Asgard game, you’re going to love this one more, we reckon. We’d still suggest starting with the practice game though.
Play for real whenever you are ready
You can change over to the real game if you have an account at an RTG casino – and there are plenty of those around if you’re looking for one to join.
Mobile access in Asgard Deluxe
You really can play this one however you wish, via mobile or your regular computer. Tablets and smartphones are just fine to use with this game, whether they are on the Android or iOS platform.
