Norns’ Fateby GameArt

Screenshots

In Norse mythology, Norns are the powerful creatures who decide the fate of gods and men alike. Similar to the fates in Greek mythology, they are among the most powerful supernatural entities.

The three most famous Norns actually keep the world in balance by pouring water over the roots of the Yggdrasil so its branches do not rot.

Norse mythology is, of course, very popular in all kinds of fiction but also in slot games with many different titles dedicated to this fascinating pantheon.

And now…

…Gameart has put its hat in the right with their own effort. But where many choose the most famous characters, such as Thor and Odin, they have chosen to devote a title to a lesser-known part of the myths.

Theme

Once the game loads, the punters will find themselves right at the root of Yggdrasil. This is the tree that contains all the nine realms of Norse myth.

The Norns work tirelessly to maintain it, but they also decide the fate of every newborn – no matter if it’s human or a god.

Will the Norns favor you with big wins? There’s only one way to find out and it’s to play the game.

The symbols…

…are all different runs. The fates appear as symbols too – but as scatters who trigger one of three different extra spin modes.

Graphically, the game is a real treat with high-definition visuals and lots of special effects.

Betting Options and Functions

This adventure of fate and mystery takes place on a 6x4 grid with 30 fixed paylines. Options like autoplay are here if you want to leave the spins fully in the hands of destiny. Though you can adjust the win and loss limits, so you are still in control.

For those who like to live dangerously…

…there is a double or nothing gamble feature on each win. It’s all about fate in this offering.

Special Features

A game about such a grand subject needs grand features. And Gameart has delivered by having three different types of extra spins and a base game feature.

This base game feature…

…is Odin himself coming down the reels and marking a rune symbol. After this, all instances of the marked symbol on the reels with turn wild, creating significant win potential.

Now onto the extra spins…

…which are triggered by the appearance of three Norn scatter symbols. Fifteen spins are awarded to the punter, but the extra special feature depends on the color of the Norns.

The green ones represent the past and choose one symbol on the reels and then on the next spin replaces all instances of it with wilds.

The present time is represented by the color red and awards a multiplier in the 2x to 9x range on each spin. Finally, the blue Norn is the future and will select one symbol to become expanding and stacked.

All through the extra spins, the Odin wilds are present on reels 1,2 and 3 while the Norn symbols become expanding wilds on the last three reels.

Our Take

The developer should be commended for choosing an original theme and packing the game with several engaging features.

With wilds, a gamble feature, and three different bonus games – there’s a lot to love here. So why not test your fate and take a spin?
