Yggdrasil and Peter & Sons have come together to create an unforgettable Norse themed slot that re-tells the dramatic story of Wagner’s most famous opera, The Valkyrie.

Valkyries follows the epic tale of the legendary Valkyries welcoming fallen heroes into Valhalla and boasts a bumper selection of bonus features and mechanics including Dropping and Locking Wilds with random multipliers up to 10x, Wild Overlaps and a powerful free spins bonus game awarding 10 free spins with two additional spins awarded every time a Locking Wild appears.

The pièce de résistance of this musical masterpiece is the Power Reel, a horizontal reel that sits below the main reels. This spins and stops once during the feature and causes different reel modifiers to jump onto the main vertical reels.

“Their enthusiasm for developing beautifully-designed games with truly engaging features really shines through, and there’s no better example of this than Valkyries.”

EGT’s jackpot Gods & Kings Link made its debut in Bulgaria. The first local gaming establishment to install the product is the largest casino in the country GoldenEye, located in Svilengrad.

“We are very happy to once again have the opportunity to support our partners from GoldenEye by providing them with one of the latest developments from our slot portfolio,” commented Biserka Draganova, Sales Manager for the Balkans and Egypt at EGT. “The fact that out of a total of 500 machines in the casino, 320 are EGT’s is a testament to the great confidence they have in us, and I believe that Gods & Kings Link will show the excellent results expected from it.”

The product is currently available on several cabinets of the G 50 J2 St model, and will be installed on more by the end of June. Gods & Kings Link has 4 levels of jackpot: Minor and Mini, that are fixed for each machine and Grand and Major, which are progressive and can be won with every bet made on any of the 4 games Rise of Ra, Olympus Glory, Ape of luck and Glorious Alexander. The Grand and Major levels are common with EGT’s bestseller jackpot Bell Link, thus creating even greater chances for wealth.
