The Berzerker

About the Bork The Berzerker slot machine

Bork the Berzerker is a slot machine about a basically kind-hearted guy. He is forced to resort to his axe when an evil sorcerer kidnaps his woman. The premise may not seem the most original. The fact is, though, that this is a really imaginative and humorous slot game that we like quite a bit. The theme sets you up for a kind of Norse mythology with which to play as the recesses of your divided-brain imagination see fit. You don the gaiters of Bork and a gentleman's bunch of monsters that stand in his way. So put on your best fur gaiter, grab your battle axe, and get ready to gash way!

Bork The Berzerker is a fairly standard video slot comprising 5 rows, 3 reels, and 25 fixed paylines. You can adjust your bet between €0.10 and €100, which gives a nice range. The theoretical return is 97.3%.

Symbols and functions

Wild symbol

Bork The Berzerker has an expanding wild represented by Bork himself. This symbol can appear on the three middle reels. As usual, the wild symbol can substitute for other symbols and give you more and bigger winning combinations. If a wild is included in a winning combination, it expands to cover the entire reel. This of course saves on the winnings even more – especially if you manage to line up several expanding wilds next to each other!

Bonus / scatter symbol

In Bork The Berzerker, the evil wizard symbolizes the bonus. The presence of this scatter symbol anywhere on the reels activates the bonus, which means it doesn't matter whether or not the evil wizard appears on a Payline. Indeed, for a wizard with such transformative powers, you'd think he would come off as a 10 Free Spins kind of guy (three of him anywhere on the reels gets you that), or maybe a 20 Free Spins kind of guy (four of him does that). But no, he's just a strange creature in the Berzerker universe, and with five of him appearing, you might want to check your smoke detector because 50 Free Spins is a hell of a way for a game to be smoking.

Summary

Bork The Berzerker is ultimately an uncomplicated slot machine. It does not bombard the player with numerous features and symbols to keep track of. But the game has a simple charm about it, and that charm gets amplified mightily into the upper atmosphere by the truly excellent graphics and entertaining sound effects that one gets to experience while playing the game.
