Our take
Riddec Games' Viking-inspired 5×3 grid echoes NetEnt's Starburst with contemporary twists, delivering 98% RTP and up to 2,187× wins.
Andvari's Ring from Riddec Games draws inspiration from NetEnt's iconic Starburst but carves its own path through Scandinavian mythology. The theme—dragons, warriors, gold, and Norse legend—replaces generic space visuals with martial gravitas. Riddec Games, emerging as a fresh developer, channels Starburst's elegant simplicity (5×3 grid, symmetrical payouts) but adds fantasy-flavoured character.
The 98% RTP ranks among the market's best, rewarding long-session players substantially. The 2,187× maximum feels modest compared to modern cluster-pay behemoths, yet it sits comfortably for traditional grids. High volatility ensures wins cluster rather than scatter; you'll experience stretches of nothing punctuated by sudden payouts. The game favours players who can weather variance without flinching.
Gameplay follows the Starburst template: wilds expand, paylines trigger bi-directionally, and respins sustain momentum. Riddec's contemporary execution—crisp animations, modern colour palette (grey dominates, punctuated by gold and dragon imagery)—feels fresh despite the familiar structure. It's neither revolutionary nor stale; a solid, well-crafted entry proving you needn't reinvent slots to be worth playing.
