Valhalla is a majestic hall set in Asgard, which Odin rules. Half of those who die in battle will travel to Valhalla to be with Odin. The remaining half will join Freyja. In other words, people who die as worriers live their afterlife with god Odin in Valhalla or with goddess Freyja in Folkvangr.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As explained above, moving to the actual game itself, one can immediately see that it lives up to the game theme. The <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gates of Valhalla<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> backdrop is the icy mountains, set on a cold winters day. The intensity of background music adds to this game&#8217;s mythical theme, whereby the warriors will soon be entering the gates.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The game grid is made up of a squarish layout comprised of five reels and five rows. What might come as a surprise at this stage is the bright coloured game symbols compared to the rest of the game screen. Not that it has any kind of effect on the game itself.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The highest three paying symbols are the red Odin, paying up to x300 when landing five in a row. The purple Freyja is the next highest paying symbol (the goddess who receives the remaining half of the warriors who die in battle). She pays up to x80 when landing five in a row. Finally, we have the green warrior himself paying x40 when landing five in a row.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Four lower-paying symbols follow. These are the blue diamond, the red heart, green clubs and yellow spades. The Wild symbols come in the form of the majestic golden lion, and the remaining symbol is the Free Spins Symbol.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Game Features<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5><strong>Roaming Wild<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We\u2019re moving straight into the best feature of Gates of Valhalla, the Roaming Wild. When you land a winning combination, and the Wild Symbol is involved, the winning symbols will explode, and the Wild Symbol will move.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hence where it got its \u2018Roaming\u2019 name. It can move up, down, left or right &#8211; wherever there is space for it to move. Following its move, the multiplier increases by x1. The multiplier will increase for every winning combination within the same tumble.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1737 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/DS-1101-Blog-Gates-of-Valhalla-Insert-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"580\" height=\"150\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/DS-1101-Blog-Gates-of-Valhalla-Insert-3.jpg 580w, https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/DS-1101-Blog-Gates-of-Valhalla-Insert-3-300x78.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/DS-1101-Blog-Gates-of-Valhalla-Insert-3-480x124.jpg 480w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 580px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 580\/150;\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1737 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/DS-1101-Blog-Gates-of-Valhalla-Insert-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"580\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/DS-1101-Blog-Gates-of-Valhalla-Insert-3.jpg 580w, https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/DS-1101-Blog-Gates-of-Valhalla-Insert-3-300x78.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/DS-1101-Blog-Gates-of-Valhalla-Insert-3-480x124.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<h5><strong>Tumble Feature<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We\u2019re sure that most SkyCity Online Casino players know this feature very well.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To recap the Tumble Feature.
