Skald’s Ember review

Skald’s Ember runs on a 6×5 grid with Cluster pays. The theme is vikings, and the bonus round is built around cascading reels and bonus buy.

How it plays

At very high volatility, expect longer quiet spells between wins and bigger swings when features land. The published RTP is 96.5%, which is the long-run average across millions of spins, not what any single session returns.

Features

cascading reels and bonus buy. The maximum win is capped at 12,500x the stake.

Demo review: the game and studio are fictional.

Pros

  • Clear, published RTP
  • Cascading reels feature
  • Smooth on mobile

Cons
