Gameplay features and bonuses

Ragnarok is a video slot based on a Cluster Pays system featuring a 5×5 symbol grid. To form a winning cluster, there must be five or more vertically or horizontally adjacent identical symbols, including Wilds. The game boasts a theoretical payout (RTP) of 96.12%, and it is characterised by high volatility.

Avalanche Feature: Symbols part of a winning combination explode, creating space for new symbols to drop into. This Avalanche feature persists as long as new winning combinations are formed, with each win contributing to the round's total.

Wild Symbol: Following each win, all symbols involved in the win are removed, and a Wild symbol appears in one of the vacated spaces, ready for new symbols to fall. This Wild can substitute for all symbols except the Scatter.

Progressive Win Multiplier: With each Avalanche win, the win multiplier is doubled. This multiplier resets at the start of each new round.

Loki’s Trick: At the beginning of each round, there's a chance the Loki's Trick feature will activate, increasing the Win Multiplier by a random amount.

Giant Symbols: Either at the start or end of a round, giant symbols of 2×2 or 3×3 may appear randomly. These count as four and nine symbols, respectively.

Free Spins: Achieving 3, 4, or 5 Scatters during the base game rewards you with 8, 10, or 12 free spins. During Free Spins, the Win Multiplier remains until the round's end, starting at x1. Note that bonus symbols are absent during Free Spins.

Xtra-Bet: By activating Xtra-Bet, your base bet increases by 50%, tripling the likelihood of activating Free Spins, though this feature cannot be used alongside Fast Track. With Xtra-Bet, the RTP is slightly adjusted to 96.10%.

Fast Track: This feature allows immediate access to specific game aspects:

• Gamble: A 50% chance to land 5 Scatters or a non-winning spin, with an RTP of 96.45%.
• Super Bonus: Ensures a round with 5 Scatters, RTP of 96.44%.
• Bonus: Ensures a round with 3 Scatters, RTP of 96.32%.
• Loki's Trick: Ensures activation of Loki's Trick, with an RTP of 96.23%.
• Giant Symbol: Guarantees a round featuring a Giant Symbol, with an RTP of 96.15%.

Burst Mode: Exclusive to Slotmill, this mode offers a faster, more streamlined Autoplay. While maintaining the same game mechanics, Burst Mode increases the game's pace, displaying only the total win after each round. You can exit Burst Mode at any point, with the session's result presented after the final round concludes.

Design and Soundtrack

Ragnarok captivates players with its exceptional visuals, set against the backdrop of a mountainous terrain. The game allows players to immerse themselves in its otherworldly landscapes. It features pay symbols represented by three stone blocks with mystical creatures, followed by three stone-like character symbols, with the highest-value symbol featuring an enigmatic figure with flaming eyes. The artwork is exceptional, complemented by an invigorating soundtrack that enhances the gaming experience.

For enthusiasts of the game's thematic elements, similar enjoyment can be found in 21 Thor Lightning Ways by 4ThePlayer and Thor Turbo Power by Platipus, which also explore rich, mythological themes.
