How Battle Maidens plays

The five maidens are on a quest to reclaim Mjölnir, and each has her own colour, her own reel and her own reward. In the base game they land only on their own reels: Hellevi on reel 1, Eldfrid on reel 2, Alfhild on reel 3, Snefrid on reel 4 and Solvej on reel 5. Everything else pays across 1,024 ways. This is what each maiden brings to the free spins:

  • Alfhild (emerald): extra free spins.
  • Eldfrid (blue): sticky wilds.
  • Hellevi (gold): the Mushrooming Wild.
  • Snefrid (flame): win multipliers.
  • Solvej (amethyst): expanding wilds.

Free spins and the 16 maiden combinations

Three or more maidens in one spin award 10 free spins, and only the maidens that triggered the round bring their features into it. With three, four or five maidens possible, 1X2gaming counts 16 different free spins combinations, so one round might pair sticky wilds with extra spins while the next stacks multipliers on expanding wilds.

Inside the round, Alfhild adds two extra spins when she lands and Snefrid raises the win multiplier by one each time she appears, so those two shape how long a bonus runs and how much its later wins are multiplied. Land all five maidens and every feature plays at once.
