Game Review

This game takes place on a 5x5 playing field and that doesn’t even play like a standard online slot!

In any case, the theme is all about Christmas, and you can look forward to a Christmas village that’s full of snow. It all looks fantastic overall, and it’s just a treat that everyone is bound to enjoy!

The volatility is medium, and the game’s hit frequency is 19%. The most you can win in one go is 3,157x your bet, and you can enjoy the action for stakes between £0.20 and £200 per spin. Finally, the theoretical RTP starts at just 90%, but you can improve it to up to 97.20% thanks to the Spin-Crease feature (more about that later).

Slot Features

Alright, let’s now take a look at how it actually plays out. First, there are 4 different shooting symbols that can show up only on the extra horizontal reel that’s placed at the very bottom of the screen. Then, there are various normal symbols that can appear above. The shooting symbols then always fire up, destroying the symbols in the path and awarding you various prizes.

As you’d expect, there are plenty of regular pay symbols that will net you a small coin win when you destroy them, but there are also various special symbols, including Green Gift Boxes, Target symbols and Candy Cane symbols.

At the start of each base game spin, you may get Target symbols placed above the playing field or get Target symbols that are already in view moved by one column to the right. If you manage to shoot down one of the slot’s Target symbols, you’ll trigger the Free Spins feature, which comes with as many as 10 free spins and plenty of opportunities to win even more free spins during that batch.

Green Gift Boxes can then net you various power-ups that can bring you bet multipliers, extra chances to destroy symbols in other ways than shooting them down, etc. It’s not always entirely clear if you’ll get actually get something or not, but that’s just the nature of the slot, really – it’s a wild and even a very messy ride at times, but there’s no denying that it can be extremely rewarding and satisfying when it hits all the right marks!

You can then also collect Candy Cane symbols and use them to fill the Spin-Crease meter, which is all about improving the game’s payouts and your winning chances as you play. You see, once you fill one of the steps of the Spin-Crease meter, you’ll improve one of your shooting symbols by a notch, and there are actually plenty of steps to go through as well. It’s no wonder, then, that you can boost the slot’s theoretical RTP from 90% all the way up to 97.20%!

Review Summary

At the end of the day, this is an incredibly complex slot that can get seriously confusing at times due to its shooting mechanics and other details. It will take you some time to get used to it, but, once you learn how it all works, you’ll surely be pleased how intricate it all actually is. Just make sure that you’ll want to spend more than just a session or two with it all if you decide to play – due to how the Spin-Crease feature works, you either have to go all in or don’t bother at all!
