Pillage & Plunder Demo (Slotmill) Slot Demo & Review

Game Overview

It must have been quite the feeling of dread in the past when villagers spotted longships on the horizon and knew that the Vikings were on their way to pillage and plunder everything in sight, and there wasn’t a single thing they could do about it. Thankfully, for us modern-day folk, that is a thing of the past, and other than visiting a museum, the closest we are going to get to that kind of experience is by perhaps playing an online slot with the same theme. So fellow slot fans, let me introduce you to the Slotmill release, Pillage & Plunder, a 5-reel game with free spins, sticky wilds, and a maximum win of 15,000x the bet.

Theme & Design

I’ve already painted the picture of the game’s theme, but once you get into the action, there are two very different sides to the design and backdrop. Initially, in the base game, things look calm in the background, with the village seemingly under no threat at all, but once the bonus round is triggered, all hell is about to be set loose, with flames engulfing the straw huts and people screaming out for help as the Vikings begin their savage attack. Crikey, I’m glad I’m watching from behind my screen; that’s all I can say.

Okay, onto my recommendations, and if Pillage & Plunder hasn’t put you off the Vikings entirely, then why not go on more adventures with them in the likes of Vikings Go to Olympus from Yggdrasil Gaming or Viking’s Rush by Dream Play.

Pillage & Plunder Gameplay & Features

Slotmill’s Pillage & Plunder is a 5-reel, 4-row online slot with 40 fixed paylines and a return to player percentage of 96.14%. The game comes with a good selection of betting options where players can choose from standard stakes starting at €0.20 a spin, reaching up to a maximum of €60.

Pillage and Plunder is a slot game that revolves heavily around wilds, and you’ll first see these appear in the base game, where they can land on reels 2, 3, and 4 with multiplier values of up to 3x attached. Additionally, a Wild Ship can also land on reels 1 and 5, with it having a chance of adding up to 9 wilds to reels 2, 3, and 4.

The wilds play a huge part in the bonus round too, triggered when 3 bonus symbols hit within the playfield, awarding 7 spins. During this feature, all wilds become sticky and remain in place for the remainder of the bonus. Additionally, it’s possible to either trigger the bonus or land the gold ship in the standard feature, which can add wilds to random positions on the reels on every spin. Finally, if you fill reels 2, 3, and 4 entirely with wilds, you’ll be awarded the longship, which remains in place and can grow in multiplier value.
