No, but it happens. Today i played all of their games and have had mostley insanly bad runs on all games. Free spins seams mission impossible on all games. I have won big on Cazino zeppelin two times. But the thing is 99% of the times i play their games i can start with 200x bet balance and its just gone in an instant.

Especially that joker millins game. Ive had several times 50+ dead spins. Think my record is +-100 as i said.
 
Bad runs happen on all providers, but yggdrasil games seams way more volatile than they appear. It seams as the hit frequency on all their slots are very low compared to MG and Netent.

Some providers just dont seam fair to me. Another one is Thunderkick. They claim fruit warp is super high variance but i have never, ever seen a 1000x pluss screenshot from that game. Same with Cazino Zeppelin from yggdrasil. Max win is 40 000x or something in that range. But never seen anything beyond 2-3000x

I am in the process of putting all Ygdrassil games on my personal "blacklist".
I had a good try on them over the last couple of days as I had some really good hits which allowed me to play some different slots.
I have not had a single decent win except 1 time where I have hit a 200x bet on Seasons,but this was after "investing" more than 1500 spins on the slot with 0 FS triggers.

Yesterday I played Jokerizer and it ate €150.00 on €1.00 spins in less than 15 minutes.
No jokers to be seen for those so called big mystery wins.

Graphical stunning slots,I have to give them that credit.

But the pay outs are atrocious,must be all mega super duper high variance slots.
Also FS are nearly impossible to trigger on their slots.

So I feel ya OP.
 
That 4 Seasons game from Riggdrasil is absolute garbage. I like the idea behind the slot but it literally has no wins whatsoever. I sunk over 500x bet balance into it before I got the Free Spins. They MUST be good if they're this hard to get I thought ... HA yeah right. I won 0,5x bet.

They are high variance slots yeah, but this is ridiculous. The RTP on their games feels like 70% - or less.
 
Have to agree. Something about these games do not seem fair. I had a couple of good runs on Vikings go Wild and Cazino Zeppelin a couple of months ago and its been downhill ever since. Cazino Zeppelin sucks your balance in no time. Im with Lotusch -- on my blacklist as well.
 
I really like Vikings Go Wild and Nirvana but I've also had way too many frustrating sessions on their slots. Way, way too many free spin teases. Doubles is especially guilty. They have some nice games but they're extremely volatile. I understand why Playtech's Great Blue and Spielo/GTech's Dragon's Temple are the way they are. Yggdrasil's have no incentive to do the same on their games.

This happened to me when I first tried vikings go wild. Played and paid really well. Even got lots of 4 scatters. Ever since Ive never won on it again. Free spins impossible to trigger and when you do it pays really bad.

I dont play that provider for the most part because I find their slots to be the worst paying provider around. I only give vikings go wild 25 spins here and there.
 
I just played one of their games chibeasties.

I hit free spins. During free spins a face symbol turns wild and acts as a wild then expands to fill entire column making it entire column wild.
So it gives you the win on just the wild and then it expands and gives you the win for entire column being wild.

I had wild/symbol/wild on a the reel in a straight line. Middle row of five. It gave me the win but when it expanded it gave me nothing. It's supposed to give me the win across and and and...it's a 25 line game I checked the game rules....is it random...or when they feel like awarding the win?

These are the rules:
FREE SPINS

When entering FREE SPINS, one symbol is randomly chosen to be the expanding symbol. All instances of that symbol that appear during free spins will expand to cover the entire reel. Even the wild symbol can be chosen.
The expansion happens after the first win evaluation. If a symbol expanded, a second win evaluation occurs afterwards.

This is the second time this happens to me.
 
Hey Brian. Not sure what you mean about Great Blue & Dragon Temple. Are you saying they are good slots to play. Have never tried them.

They are very volatile but can pay out big if you get the bonus and are lucky. You can go on my YouTube page (Brian Ghattas) and see some free spins bonuses on both of them. Great Blue can pay out $42,500 on a 25c bet. Dragon's Temple has a free spins option that guarantees you 5 winning spins if you choose to have reels 1, 3 and 5 wild.
 
OK thats it!. Tried Holmes and Stolen Stones. What a rip-off. I thought I would win the prize money on top of the stones but it is only for free spins. Ughhhh ... wasted over $50 to find this out. It keeps teasing you thinking you are getting free spins, but nope! I am off Yggdrasil forever.

Brian, will try your games. Cant be worse!

Great Blue is on Video Slots Online and Slots Millions. You will have to go to a land-based casino to play Dragon's Temple 3D. It's at my local (Casino du Lac Leamy) as well as in Montreal (Casino de Montreal) and Casino Charlevoix. Don't know where in Canada you live but some of the bigger casinos may have it.

Me too. I thought I hit the jackpot when I collected that last stone. Epic fail.
 
Try Seasons - Epic piece of shite. :thumbsup:

80% of the time the owl feature is up,ooohoooooo ooooohooooooo I am gonna fly off the reels oooohoooooooo..
Had 2 FS triggered in like 1500 spins,both on the oooohooooo oooohhooooo what a surprise,the owl! ooohoooooo..

Whopping 5x and 12x bet wins....


ooooohoooooo

Meh tried a few Ygdrassripmeoff games,not my cup of tea.


OUT.

:cool:
 
OK thanks Brian. I live in Mississauga so I go to either Mohawk or Fallsview. Hate Mohawk but it is pretty close. Have gone to Woodbine and Casinorama as well but not as frequently.

If the casino has other Spielo/GTech games such as Sphinx 3D and Bejeweled 3D, they should have Dragon's Temple 3D or the original. This is the first slot the Quebec casinos have brought in that isn't from the Big 5 of IGT, WMS, Bally, Konami and Aristocrat.
 
I don't know but I've hit some pretty best scores with them so can't complain. From chibeasties Vikings zepellin even the fish.

The thing is when they are dead they go cold but I do find the golden fish slot when it's about to go cold it always gives wins of like 4 coins to8 coins
 
I quite like Golden Fish Tank and Nirvana but those are about the only ones I play.
The Jokerizer slots have the same feeling you get from the "classic slots" from the other providers which are very high variance.
 
These guys are pushing quite seriously it seems. There are all those 10k, 15k tournaments on games like Vikings go wild or monkey king for the highest multiplier in the free spins. They also have this unique feature for promotions where you can spin until a certain event happens (like hitting a feature, a certain multiplier, etc.).

I always thought Play n Go to be the number 3 after Netent and Microgaming but these guys are not to be underestimated.
 
I must agree with your Hedgehok. I played in that Bicicleta tournament but lost my shirt competing. I was in the raffle and of course picked an empty chest. The prizes being offered were awesome. I find their games extremely high variance.

yeah i tried that one too, because of promo in question. First time i hear about it too. Didnt get a chest though but considering its just a copy of their only good game (for me anyways :P), vikings go wild its not too bad of a promo really.

i did try some of their other games too but amount of dead spins you get is unreal and payouts just dont feel good enough for such a high variance slots. I mean i can live with dead spins on DoA, BDBA, Reel steal, etc because i know those slots can, and do pay anything ranging from x100 to 5000x. And then you have yggdrasil games where sometimes full line of wilds pays like 10x - 20x if that much so yeah i suppose i just cant get used to playing a slot that behaves like super high variance game, but pays out like low variance ones, most of the time anyways.

other than that i do like their slots presentation and i believe how their designers are doing great job with newest releases. Long story short, if i were playing slots purely for entertainment purposes id be playing their slots mostly, but since i actually dont mind winning a few $ here and there i rarely (read almost never) play yggdrasil games anymore and even if i do its only one or two of their slots and thats it.
 

The variance of their games is a little weird. Comparable to a game like Reel Rush maybe. You hit the feature more often but the basegame pays mostly rubbish and the features are piss-poor too most of the times. You won't hit 1000+ hits too but on a good day you will hit multiple 100-500x which the high variance games you've mentioned usually don't pay. They either pay nothing or colossally (is that a word? :p) .

well yeah to some extent i do agree with you but that doesnt make them good games in my eyes though :) For all that super high variance DoA has, ive had countless sessions without my balance going either up or down, and more often than not it will give you enough small wins to prolong your session, even without any big, or even semi big wins at all.

But when it comes to yggdrasil slots, its mostly dead spins with occasional 10x hit and, rarely some 100x wins if you happen to catch free spins before going busto all that without DoA's ability of super huge wins either. Or if we compare it to the other 2 slots i mentioned, which are more like yggdrasil games in a sense, because of more dead spins, those 2 games (BDBA and Real steal) can actually pay like 800x in base game, not to mention their FS potential.

But yggdrasil games have neither big base games or small...big (smallbig?) base wins to prolong your session. Your only hope is to catch a few successive FS rounds and hope for a couple of 100x+ wins but i might as well play DoA and hope to catch a couple of successive wild lines too, and on top of that my session is pretty much going to last longer with DoA than yggdrasil games too :eek2:

and i do realize how, in theory their games have potential for big wins, but so does Starburst, but you wont find me chasing successive full screen of bars there :)

its just that their games feel, and play much tighter than they should, compared to their payouts. They are also soemtimes very frustrating slots, and i dont think people like playing slots that frustrate them. Its not even tilt problem because im, mostly very good at tilt management but if i ever were to find a game thats most likely to put me on tilt, it would surely be a toss up between one of their games or rabcat slots.

I havent really played their newer games though, other than that monkey thing and i only lasted around 100 spins before i couldnt take it anymore. In that time ive had middle monkey go wild for 3 spins at a time good 8 or 9 times, and i havent had a single hit while it was at reels. Thats the stuff im talking about, and thats not even tied up to their payouts either. Its just that they create evil, mean slots that i have no desire to play whatsoever :P
 
I recently played about £150 through golden fish tank at minimum stake and the biggest win I had was £10. The last feature I had payed £8 and I received a technical error message after the bonus round. When I restarted the game the win had not been credited and there was no resume game or incomplete game like wms or netent.

I contacted the casino and they said yggdrasil could find no record of a feature or win so it could not be credited. This alone is reason for me to never play their games again. It's too risky, what if that had been a substantial win. I had also experienced two other technical errors on smaller wins that weren't credited either.

It seems they don't have a proper system for checking records and wouldn't pay even with screenshots.

this is something worrying me quite a bit.
if things are as you said, I'm leaving Yggdrasil games as well as you.

It would be appreciated if any Casino Rep could confirm/deny the above.

Dan @ VS maybe ?

Thanks in advance

It worries me a lot too. I played the free spins round and was told there was no record so I'm assuming there systems aren't working or I imagined the whole thing!
 
Stay away from winterberries, sherlock holmes and seasons imo. Just balance destroyers.

The vikings series is ok and has potential so I dont mind playing them. Vikings go rigged can be disgusting though

Golden fish tank is a fun one

And Cazino Zeppelin is one of their best. Can be cold and ruthless but its like DOA so just proceed with caution

Nirvana seems decent. Spits out midsized wins
 
If my future in regards to online slots here in Canada is Rigdrassil, Play 'n Go and Red Tiger then there's no point in playing them unless I bring a $500 balance to the dance. After a 33 day run with a $50 starting balance ended with a bust today I think it's time to take a long break from online gambling. I'll just go to the locals.

These slots play nowhere close to their listed RTG percentages. I know slots require a ton of luck but it doesn't help when they are purposely ungiving.

Geez Brian. $50 going 33 days is very good. I busted through $70 in less then 2 days and my RTP was at about 20%. Did not even meet wagering requirements (Videoslots). I'd be happy with a 33 day run unless you meant to type $500 then I could see your point.

I totally agree with the crap selection of games. Gotta get my Netent fix !!!!!

It was $50 at Leo Vegas. No wagering. I have had long sessions with $50 or $100 (with some wagering) but no cashouts since the end of October. Not upset as much as I would be because I did win $60 profit at OLG RCR Friday. I'm frustrated that I can't play the good providers from my home such as WMS, Novomatic and the once great Net Entertainment. It's simply too difficult to win with these current machines Canadians can play. Not that you can't but you will need lots of money to start to even have a chance here.
 
Just stay clear, people are calling them high variance but shouldnt that imply you can win alot aswell? apart from Zeppelin there really isnt that much win potential. Even a full screen of wild on vikings, you need about 6 spins to close to 1000x, Chibeasties is the only yggdrasil slot I enjoy as the bonus usually pays 70-150x+ but it can be a mother to trigger. I had a 3 or 400x when the wild symbol was the expanding one but thats really fucking rare to get and it didnt really do much for me in terms of what it could have, you could get a several thousand x hit on that game if you got lucky.
