Norns' Fate Slot Review

We head to Scandinavia, where we dabble in some Norse mythology. Yes, this is a popular theme, but Norns' Fate centres around 3 Norn Women, who, according to Norse mythology, are able to determine one's fate. Odin also makes an appearance, but he has gone a bit wild in this slot. Grab your hammer and let's hammer the reels, just don't get hammered along the way.

Gameplay

Norns' Fate is a 6x4 reel, 30 payline video slot powered by GameArt software. Symbols include 6 different Rune Stones. Special Symbols include the Odin Wild, and 3 different Norn Scatters that trigger 3 different Free Spins Features. There is also the random Odin Wild Feature and the Gamble Feature. More detail will be given in the Features section.

The game controls at the bottom of the reels are from left to right: the Settings Icon, History Icon, then the Information Icon that expands to the Paytable, the adjustable Bet Per Line window, Autoplay button, Spin button, Balance Window, Total Bet window, and Win window.

Features

The features in Norns' Fate include the Odin Wild and 3 different Norn Scatters that trigger 3 different Free Spins Features. There is also the random Odin Wild Feature and the Gamble Feature.

The Odin Wild substitutes for all symbols, except the 3 different Norn Scatters, to form potential winning combinations.

When an Odin Wild lands on the reels, the random Odin Wild Feature is triggered, where Odin will select a random Rune Stone Symbol to turn into Wilds.

After every winning combination, you can select the Gamble button to the left of the Spin button to play the Gamble Feature. You will then select either red or black. If the flashing card stops on your selected colour, you will double your win. If not, you lose everything.

Unique Features

Land 3 Norn Scatters to trigger the 1 of 3 Free Spins Features (depending on which Norn Scatter landed), awarding 15 free spins with Odin Wilds present on the first 3 reels and Norns turning into expanding Wilds on the last 3 reels. The 3 different Free Spins Features are as follows:

Green Norn Scatter: Past Free Spins Feature where one of the symbols in the previous round is selected to turn into Odin Wilds during the next spin.

Red Norn Scatter: Present Free Spins Feature trigger with multipliers of 2x to 9x randomly applied to each win.

Blue Norn: Future Free Spins Feature where each spin has one symbol selected to expand, but only when a Blue Norn is present.

Performance

Norns' Fate is a refreshing addition to the often predictable Norse theme. The gameplay is interesting with unique Free Spins Features that are a welcomed surprise and can lead to some mythical wins. The graphics, design, and animation are well done. The RTP is at 96%, with medium volatility.

Max Win

The max coin win is 3200x your stake.

Conclusion

Thor, Loki, and Freyja may not appear on these reels, which is actually quite a relief. The Norns are a great choice to include in the Norse theme as they provide an extra part of Norse Mythology that we may not have known of before. Fantastic features make this slot even more appealing with not 1 but 3 Free Spins Features. Cheers to the Norns and may your fate be what you expected.
