Santa's Reel Wheel Slots
It's hard to go wrong with a festive theme. As long as the game has cute enough graphics and enough winning potential, it's bound to be a success. That being said, the holiday slot market is highly competitive because players have so many options. When the Holiday season rolls around, as a player I'm going to be drawn to the slot that looks the best, feels the best, and offers the best payouts. Oftentimes, Realtime Gaming slots are at the top of my list.
Appearance
The slot itself is laid out against a snowy, animated landscape. There is a fresh blanket of white snow, accompanied by pine trees, a log cabin with Christmas lights and a holly jolly snowman. The reel contains three different levels, and the levels will be frozen by ice when locked. The graphics themselves are up to date and modern, yet simplistic and computer animated. RealTime Gaming has been around for so long, now and then you might stumble upon one of their old games and wonder why the graphics are so out of date because you don't realize this software development company has been putting out games since the 90s, but that's not the case with this slot. This is a modern Christmas game! The atmosphere itself is pretty magical, and is bound to evoke those fuzzy feelings the holiday season can bring us all. This is a medium volatile game, and the betting range is fair. You can bet anywhere from 0.10 to 10.00 credits per spin.
Symbols and Free Spins
The two special symbols on this board are Diamond Wilds and Firework Scatters. Regular symbols include holly, candy canes, jingle bells, presents, and lower paying symbols like spades, clubs, hearts and diamond cookies. This game has three single line reels, which are arranged as three different levels. You will have to progress through each level and unlock specific features. If. you trigger a win, or a firework symbol on level 1, you'll unlock level two. If you achieve another win or another firework symbol on level 2, you'll unlock level 3. On level three, you can unlock Santa's Bonus Wheel, which will award a Mini, Minor, Major or Grand Jackpot. It can also unlock the Fireworks Feature. You can also unlock free spins. The free spins can be unlocked at level two if you manage to trigger Santa's Bonus Wheel during that round. You can win either extra free spins or fireworks.
The Fireworks Features
This feature works on fifteen reel positions, on levels one, two and three. The fireworks can appear and remain sticky on the reels, and refresh to reward three more respins. It's a fairly typical Hold & Win type of feature. If you fill the entire reel with fireworks, you'll win the Grand Jackpot, worth 1,000x your stake. If the Diamond Wild Symbol substitutes for any regular symbol, you'll receive a 2x multiplier, or an x4 multiplier if two wilds are used on level three.
