Volatile Vikings 2 Dream Drop Review

Relax Gaming wastes no time rolling out one Dream Drop jackpot slot after another, but unlike the debut release, Temple Tumble 2 Dream Drop, Volatile Vikings 2 Dream Drop is a very similar game to the original Volatile Vikings is all ways except the math model.

The viking pub setting is more jolly along with the soundtrack though, and both the 94.8 % RTP and the regular 10,000x potential has taken a significant hit compared to the first game. This is to be expected when massive progressive jackpots up to €10 million can be landed, but fans of the original will not necessarily like this follow-up. The core features are all the same anyway, so this one is mostly for jackpot chasers.

Volatile Vikings 2 Dream Drop Features

You win when 8 to 12+ matching symbols appear anywhere on the screen, and the premium carved wood viking symbols pay between 10 and 50 x your stake for 12+ matching symbols in view. Winning symbols explode, and are replaced by a Cascade of new symbols, and this gives you indefinite extra wins per round.

You get 2 Multiplier Reveal symbols on reels 3 and 4 per spin, and each of the symbols come with random counter and multiplier values. The counter decreases in value per consecutive cascade, and the multiplier is activated when the counter reaches zero. It destroys adjacent symbols, and one of the new symbols cascading in will be another multiplier symbol. The sum of all activated multipliers will boost the total win in the end.

You win 6 free spins when you land 3 scatters in view, and you get +1 FS on top of that per extra triggering scatter above the minimum of 3.

You get +1 extra spin per scatter you land during the feature, and the Bonus Round plays out similarly to the base game. The important difference is that the multiplier you build is persistent, which means that it never resets as long as the feature lasts.

The Dream Drop Jackpot Game triggers at random times before a base game spin, and it plays out on 5 new reels. DD symbols accumulate as they appear, while empty barrels are destroyed. The first reel to get filled by DD symbols awards the corresponding jackpot. The jackpot seeds at €1, €5, €100, €25,000 and €500,000, respectively.

The Mega Jackpot will drop before reaching €10 million, and it’s around €6M at the time of writing.

Review Summary

The only reason to play Volatile Vikings 2, as compared to the original, is to chase the Dream Drop jackpots. The chanting carved wood viking symbols are still charming, but not as haunting and mysterious as in the original game. This is also due to the more lighthearted soundtrack, which admittedly is suitable in the pub setting. The features are pretty much the same also, so there is nothing new to see really.

Of course, the math model is the biggest “problem” for players who don’t care too much about the jackpots. You get an 82.8 % RTP outside of the DD feature, as a full 12 % goes to feed the jackpots. The regular max win is sliced in half, to a still decent 10,000x, and the bonus round seems to trigger less frequently (with no buy option).

If chasing the dream jackpot is your number one priority, go for it, but the original is a superior game in all other ways.

Pros

• Cascading Wins & Scatter Pay system
• Multiplier Reveal countdown system
• Persistent multiplier in the bonus round
• Dream Drop Jackpot up to €10 million

Cons

• RTP of 82.8 % outside of the DD jackpot game
• 10,000x potential is half of the original game
