Asgardian Stones Bonus Features
One of the things that make this slot stand out from others is Colossal symbols feature. The Colossal symbols appear in blocks of 2x2 or 3x3, and they can be any symbol other than the Wild. The symbols may hit the reel whole or in part. When a winning combination contains the Colossal sign, it explodes and vanishes to make place for the Avalanche feature to work its magic. Unfortunately, there can only be one colossal symbol visible on the reels at a time.
Colossal Crush is an additional feature worth mentioning. Both in the main game and the Free Spins round, it can be activated after the first Avalanche. As its name implies, it operates by randomly crushing additional rows of symbols underneath it on the reels. The best part of this function is that it awards you a multiplier on the left side of the screen when it smashes at least one symbol. For each row a symbol gets crushed, the multiplier rises by 1 and can reach up to x4.
The slot's most thrilling feature is the Bonus Wheel Feature. A 3x3 block known as the Bonus Wheel serves as a Colossal symbol that can show up completely or partially on the reels and only appears on the last three reels. Once all Avalanches and payouts have been made, the Bonus Wheel stops awarding Coin Wins, Free Spins, or both. The number of coins and free spins that are given depends on how many rows the 3x3 symbol covers plus one reward for each row. The Bonus Wheel's maximum coin win is x36. A coin won from the Bonus Wheel might be multiplied by 1, 2, or 5. When your win is calculated, the Bonus Wheel remains in place, unlike other symbols.
Free Spins
The Bonus Wheel feature grants you up to 15 Free Spins. In this extra round, Wild Symbols can function as Colossal Wilds, which means they can appear in blocks of 2x2 or 3x3 in size. The Bonus Wheel can be triggered up to three more times, awarding a maximum of 25 more Free Spins.
Asgardian Stones Verdict
Some people compare this game to Gonzo's Quest, another smash success from NetEnt, and they are not entirely off base. Some go so far as to claim that this is a secret sequel to it with a Nordic motif, and this is also possible. However, several elements, such as Colossal symbols and Colossal Crush, set it apart from its alleged inspiration. In my opinion, the lower volatility of this game makes it more fun for players with smaller bankrolls. This game is pretty entertaining, especially when you activate the Free Spins rounds, thanks to the pleasant aesthetics and captivating soundtrack. You should try this slot since I have heard great things about it
