We’re excited to share our latest feature with CasinoGuide.se, where they sat down with Booming Games for an exclusive Q&A about our newest release, Shields of Gold: Valkyrie Hold and Win. In the interview, we discuss what defines Booming Games as a studio, the creative vision behind our titles, and how innovation continues to drive our approach to game development.

You can read the full original interview on CasinoGuide’s website.

For readers in Sweden who may not know you yet, how would you describe Booming Games in just three words?

Innovative, entertaining, reliable!

Which of your games would you say best represents the “soul” of Booming Games?

I would say that the top 3 games that best represent Booming Games soul are Buffalo Hold & Win Extreme, Cash Pig 2 and Fish Tales Monster Bass, each are brings premium design, engaging mechanics and broad player appeal.

What do you think makes Booming Games stand out in a crowded market of slot providers?

We build on proven player-favourite mechanics with fresh innovations, creating games that feel familiar yet exciting—and that’s what makes us stand out.

Norse mythology has a strong cultural connection in Sweden. How do you think Shields of Gold: Valkyrie Hold and Win will resonate with Swedish players?

Norse mythology is deeply rooted in Swedish culture, which makes Shields of Gold: Valkyrie Hold and Win a natural fit for the market. The game doesn’t just celebrate that heritage - it enhances it with our brand-new ‘Wild Transform’ mechanic, where players can unlock instant cash prizes or even trigger the Hold and Win bonus. During Free Spins, players get to choose their path: more Shields on reels 1 and 2 for frequent Wild Transforms, or more Wilds on reel 5 for the chance at truly epic wins. This mix of cultural resonance, player choice, and innovative mechanics ensures the game will strongly connect with Swedish players.

What kind of player do you think will enjoy Shields of Gold the most, and why?

Shields of Gold is perfect for players who love Norse mythology, but also for those chasing exciting features—the Wild Transform and Free Spins choices deliver both strategy and big win potential.

Can you give us a little teaser… Any hidden surprises or bonus features players should watch out for?

Whilst Shields of Gold is pretty upfront with what if offers, there is a nice surprise for players in the base game where at any point the Valkyrie and let out a war cry and deliver an instant bonus trigger!


What’s your favorite feature in Shields of Gold, and why?
It has to be the Wild Transform feature, not only is this the main catalyst for winning instant cash prizes and the Hold and Win Bonus, but the excitement in seeing those Wild symbols land in stacks really drums up anticipation! Also when triggering a Hold and Win Bonus from this you are guaranteed one of the Prize pots which can award up to 100x just for one symbol!

Was there anything that didn’t make it into the final cut of the game that you secretly wish had?

I think when creating slot games there is always something you can look back upon in order to improve, but this is how we iterate and innovate with each of our titles…..who knows maybe this sparks a new “Shields of Gold” series?!

Do you see Shields of Gold as a one-off, or could this turn into a series of Norse/Valkyrie-inspired slots?

As I eluded to before, we have the potential to build upon the Shield of Gold series here, whilst we could again re-visist the Norse theme we have multiple options in the direction we go from here…we could next be visiting the colosseum of Ancient Rome or the battlefields of the Spartans, only time will tell.

What’s the biggest win potential in this slot, and how did you balance risk vs reward?

The biggest win potential is in the Free Spins, this is due to the fact that you can also trigger the Hold and Win Bonus through this also. During Free Spins you have the increased opportunity to land Shields, Wilds and of course trigger the Hold and Win. During this filling all the 15 positions will award the 1000x Grand Prize on top of the rest of your winnings and finally with possible re-triggers who knows when the action and wins will stop!

Finally, if you could sum up Shields of Gold: Valkyrie Hold and Win in a few sentences to get Swedish players hyped, what would you say?

Shields of Gold: Valkyrie Hold and Win is a thrilling mix of Norse mythology, stunning visuals, and innovative gameplay. With the brand-new Wild Transform mechanic and player choice in Free Spins, every spin offers excitement, strategy, and the chance for epic wins. It’s an adventure that Swedish players won’t want to miss.
