The art of catching trolls is a dying tradition these days but it was once a common pastime in Scandinavia to grab your sword, head out of the door and not return until you had the head of a giant creature. Troll Hunters — an online slot from Play ‘n Go — celebrates these unsung heroes with some visually-stimulating graphics and exciting gameplay.

Troll Hunters is played out on a 5×5 grid symbols under the watchful eye of one of the female troll hunters on the right-hand side. It’s a chilly part of the world and behind those reels are snow-covered mountains underneath a cold blue sky.

Before you join the Viking warriors in battle, you must first regulate your bet. Choose one of the five coin sizes offered ranging from 0.20 to 40. Having done that, press “Start” for the game to kick into action. You can also pick “Auto Play” which will have the symbols fall into place without interruptions. “Stop” button will conclude the autoplay mode.

In this game, you will find yourself on a bleak mountain range, with some hardy looking characters that are hunting the trolls. These characters stand on the right of the “reels.” During the bonus feature, they are replaced by the troll, and the symbols become frosted over.

The symbols feel like they are falling into place, rather than spinning and include the hunters themselves, metal jewelry and – oddly – a large piece of meat. While this definitely is not the best-sounding game, the audible effects in this slot remain perfectly functional. Expect a mix of wind, whooshes and the occasional roar – in among computer-generated jingles.

This is an entertaining slot that carries on the tradition of putting ideas to good use. The 5x5 setup might sound peculiar, although it is very easy to come to grips with and takes nothing away from the slot experience at all. Players will definitely enjoy this game’s dynamics, with peaks of interest coming when you get several wins in a row and the multiplier begins to shoot upwards.

The bonus game is a refreshing change from the standard play, with the scatter format another feature that is easier to understand when you see it on the screen than it is in writing. Truly, this is a game that gamers will come back for over and over again.

FEATURE SYMBOLS

The symbol with the top prize is the blonde haired fighter, worth 5x your total spin for five of a kind. Next, are the red-headed Viking lady and dark haired guy. The earrings, skulls, and meat make up the smaller paying symbols. Wilds do not come in at first; they need to be created by hitting wins. What happens is that the middle of the three symbols often becomes the wild. If you line up five of these, you can win 100x your total spin.

As the symbols fall, you will see the word “Bonus” appear behind some of the “reels” at random. You need to clear all of the symbols from one of these reels - revealing the full word – to start the feature.

BONUS ROUNDS

The gameplay is the novel feature here and the idea is to make horizontal or vertical matches of at least three symbols. Each time you make a match, those symbols involved will disappear and a wild will be made in its place. New combos can then be produced with more wilds created in the process. Wins are small but plentiful in this manner.

Free Spins

Behind the reels, you will at times see the words “Bonus” spelled out vertically. If you can uncover a whole word during the symbol matching/disappearing process, then the spins will be triggered.

You will next receive eight free spins on a different set of reels – here every symbol is a scatter and you need at least five for a win. The gameplay is more traditional here and there are no disappearing symbols or wilds. Five or more troll symbols will trigger five more spins up to a maximum of twenty.
