Viking and Striking Slots
Pragmatic Play has been delivering top notch games to players for years. You’re probably familiar with their newer games, ones that come with realistic graphics, booming soundtracks, and unreal animations. But that wasn’t always the case! There was a time when Pragmatic Play games were much simpler. That’s exactly what we’re diving into today with their old school Viking and Striking slot. Right away, you can tell this is an older Pragmatic Play game just by the animations. They have those bright and colorful cartoon like vibes, with the characters having a similar feel. That’s not to say they’re bad! The gameboard is a Viking ship, which we love because it gives players something different. The upbeat music might seem like an odd choice but when it’s paired with the look and feel of this game, you’ll understand why they chose it. So jump aboard and let’s find out what awaits us with this crew of Vikings!
