Theme – head to the dwarf mountain kingdom

Like the other slots in the Age of the Gods Norse series, there’s a high spec look to the visuals in the Age of the Gods Norse: Book of Dwarves slot. With Norse mythology theme and set within a mighty mountain range with the Dwarf castle in the background, Playtech has spared no expensive with the design.

The symbols are very nicely drawn and packed full of detail. There’s a sweeping orchestral score playing while you spin which could come straight out of an adventure movie. The characters remind me of the Dwarf race that inhabit Middle-Earth in the Lord of the Rings films.

The reels are made up of lower value rune stone symbols and more 5 more rewarding Dwarves. You have the Ranger Dwarf, Wizard Dwarf, Forge Dwarf, Coin Dwarf and Dwarf King. The best of the quintet is the Dwarf King which pays 0.4, 0.6 or 2 x your total stake if you land 3, 4 or 5 on a payline.

There’s also a W wild symbol that pays 1, 3 or 10 x your total bet when landing 3, 4 or 5 in combination. It also substitutes for all symbols except the Book of Dwarves scatter.

Age of the Gods Norse: Book of Dwarves Mobile

Produced with HTML5 technology, Age of the Gods Norse: Book of Dwarves is available to play on all devices including mobiles, tablets, PCs and laptops. Individually, the symbols are all superbly drawn but they are rather similar, and it can look a little cluttered if you’re using a small screen device. I recommend you play this fantasy inspired title on a desktop device.

Age of the Gods Norse: Book of Dwarves Bonus Features

The gameplay in the Age of the Gods Norse: Book of Dwarves slot is simple. With 2 bonus features, the main feature is the free spins round. It has the potential to be a good one though thanks to the expanding symbols element which can create some big clusters of matching symbols with rewards to match. You also have the small matter of the progressive jackpots.

Book of Dwarves Free Games feature

The Book of Dwarves Free Games feature is triggered by landing 3 or more scatter symbols on the same spin. Before the feature starts, a symbol is chosen from the book. This will be the special expanding symbol. This symbol will expand into a 3×3 symbol when it appears. You’ll then begin your initial haul of 10 free spins.

Each time you land a scatter symbol during the feature, it’s collected in a meter. When the meter is full, you’ll advance to the next level. A new level awards extra free spins and activates another expanding symbol. There are 4 levels in total:

If you land more than 1 expanding symbol on the same free spin, the lower value symbols transform into the higher value one and the expansion then takes place. Landing 3 scatters on the same free spin results in a retrigger. You’ll get another 10, 5, 4 or 3 free spins depending on which level you’re currently playing in. The number of free spins you can play with is unlimited.

Age of the Gods Norse Jackpot feature

Book of Dwarves is part of the Age of the Gods Norse Jackpot Network. The prizes here can trigger at random, via the Age of the Gods Norse Jackpot feature, on any spin. You can see how much they are currently worth in the meters above the reels.

The Ultimate Jackpot is by far the most rewarding. Guaranteed to pay at least €100,000, the actual jackpot is £542,154.24.

Age of the Gods Norse: Book of Dwarves Review Summary – an epic addition to the fantasy series

The Age of the Gods Norse: Book of Dwarves slot is another high spec addition to this hugely popular fantasy-themed franchise. Visually superb, it reminds me of Dwarven Gems Megaways from Iron Dog Studio. In terms of gameplay, it has elements of Play ‘n GO’s Book of Dead with the special expanding symbols in the free spins.

The range of features isn’t wide but the Book of Dwarves Free Games feature can be well worth hitting, especially if you manage to level up and bring extra higher value and even wild expanding symbols into play. All in all, 10,000 x stake wins from each free spin is double that of the likes of Book of Dead and Book of Ra Deluxe.

If you’ve enjoyed the other slots in this series, Age of the Gods Norse: Book of Dwarves offers something different and will surely appeal to many players. It also has the added extra of the jackpots. Thumbs up to Playtech for an excellent slot game.
