Imagine a calm Christmas eve in 19th century England. Yup, that's where we're going now, to a London mansion to witness a Christmas miracle with the help of Christmas spirit.
Theme and Symbols
Christmas Carol Megaways is an online video slot made by Pragmatic Play software provider. The theme of this slot is Christmas and it's made in the style of Charles Dickens.
It is a cloned version of Pragmatic Play’s Great Rhino Megaways which can be both disappointing and exciting at the same time. For example, we get to keep all the features that made Great Rhino Megaways such a hit.
The set up is in London or rather an old mansion. There is a set of stairs behind the reels. The reels are placed atop of a desk and they're frozen on the borders. The game has solid graphics and a warm feeling to it.
The pay table consists of Dickens’ characters mostly, with Spook being the most valuable on the reels. The low pays are represented by A, K, Q, J and 10 royals designed in Christmas-style.
The old Scrooge is the Wild Symbol that appears on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5 as well as the top horizontal reel to substitute for all other icons except the Pocket Watch Scatter.
Betting Options and Features
Christmas Carol Megaways is a 6 reel video slot with 1 extra horizontal reel. The number of symbols on each reel differ with each spin since it is a megaways slot with 200,704 ways to win.
Simply match symbols from left to right to score a win. The betting range is not the best we’ve seen, but it still provides plenty of choice for both high and low rollers as it starts from €0,20 and caps out at €100,00.
There’s not much change from the Great Rhino Megaways, the title runs on a highly volatile math model, rated at 5/5, and has a default RTP of 96,48% which can be increased to 96,58% via Ante Bet feature. The maximum exposure reaches an impressive 20,000x the stake.
Tumble Reels is a feature usually found in almost every Megaways slot, which is exactly the case here. The winning symbols are removed from the grid allowing new icons to fill empty positions and potentially cause another win.
Free Spins - land 4, 5 or 6 Scatters anywhere on the reels to trigger the feature. Now, you’ll have to choose between 4 types of Free Spins.
Depending on how many Scatters triggered the feature the number of Free Spins and starting multiplier differs. We’ll talk about the 4 Scatter Free Spins that looks like this:
- 15 Free Spins and starting multiplier of x1
- 10 Free Spins and starting multiplier of x5
- 5 Spins free of charge and starting multiplier of x10
The 4th option rewards a random number of Free Spins ( 5 - 15 ) and a random starting multiplier ( x1 - x10 ). What is more, each tumble win during the feature increases the multiplier limitlessly and you can also win 5 Extra Spins by landing 3 Scatters.
There’s also the Ante Bet option that increases the bet by 25x but almost doubles the chances of Free Spins proccing as well as increasing the RTP to 96,58%.
The Buy Bonus is also available and it will take you directly into the 4 Scatter Free Spins round at the cost of 100x the bet.
Wrapping Up
Christmas Carol Megaways slot is a blast. The developer kept all the benefits that Great Rhino Megaways delivered while changing the theme. The statistics are looking good, the default RTP of 96,48% can also be increased to 96,58% with Ante Bet feature.
