Sonya Blackjack 2f3528

RNG powered casino games have been losing in popularity as time goes on. Not that surprising, given that most players prefer to play Yggdrasil! They went through with a game that combines the best of both worlds in Sonya Blackjack.

The visuals are top-notch and are infinitely customisable by the casino. Sonya can be a pretty redhead or a strong bearded Viking! It all depends on where you play. All of her movements were created using motion capture of real live casino dealers. This game has two side-bets: Perfect Pairs and 21+3.

Only three players can play at a single table. Thankfully, since this is an RNG powered game, the number of tables is not limited. This is not a single-player release, mind you. You can only occupy one seat, while other, real players will occupy the other two seats.

First, take a seat and place your bet! Once you do so, Sonya will deal two cards to all participants, and two for herself. The dealer peeks for blackjack, before allowing you to resume the round. Look at your hand, and decide if you want to draw another card or not. Depending on that choice, you will either hit or stand.

Make sure your choice does not push you above 21, as that is an automatic loss. The same is true for the dealer! If neither side busts, then the side that is closer to 21 wins. Drawing exactly 21 from your first two cards results in a blackjack win.

You can wager between $1.00 and $1,500 on each round of Yggdrasil’s Sonya Blackjack. You are limited to a maximum of $500 on the main bet and two side bets. Standard wins earn you a 1:1 payout, while a blackjack win is a 3:2 score. A successful Insurance bet earns you a 2:1 win.

Alongside hitting and standing, players can also split and double their hands. As the name implies, Doubling doubles your wager, and draws only one additional card. Splitting can only be done if you have a pair of cards.

You also have two side bets. In 21+3, you need to create the best possible three-card poker hand with your two cards and the dealer’s face-up card. The top payout the 21+3 bet offers stands at 100:1. Meanwhile, Perfect Pairs tasks you with finding the best possible pair of cards. A pair with matching values and suits earns you a 25:1 payout.
