Game Overview
Play’N’Go’s seemingly endless run of fun games has continued unabated through 2022. Not every Play’N’Go slot is particularly unique or different from other games, but these guys usually get enough right that it’s always worth seeing what they have been up to recently. Naughty Nick’s Book has a cool comic book style look to it, and with just ten selectable paylines, you can be relatively sure that this is a game where you’ll be waiting longer for more significant wins rather than winning smaller amounts frequently. As for the RTP, that comes in at 96.28%, and finally, we have the maximum win, which is capped at 7,500x bet.
Features are a little bit thin on the ground this time, sadly, with just a solitary free spin bonus round to discuss here. You’ll always receive eight free spins, regardless of the number of triggering scatters, but you do at least get an extra reel and an expanding symbol to spice things up for the duration of the bonus round – more on those features later.
It’s kind of funny to consider that this is naughty Nick’s book – I wonder if Santa himself was naughty as a child? I guess that’s probably a thought for another day! In the meantime, why not try our free demo slot of Naughty Nick’s Book? It’s available to play below:
Naughty Nick’s Book Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
This game is obviously intended as a different take on the Christmas slot formula, and I have to say, for me, it really works. The way that even the paytable has been drawn like pages in a comic book really gives the presentation a leg up here. It probably isn’t the most generous Christmas game I have reviewed this year so far, but it’s definitely the most interesting one visually! There are so many Christmas games being released each year that we have added an entire section of them here at Demoslot – here’s a direct link if you are interested in checking a few of them out.
We mentioned that this is a ten payline game earlier, which is a category that often has the best wins available on the paytable. Naughty Nick’s Book makes a good start by offering 200x your bet for five scatter symbols or 500x for the maximum of six when the additional reel has been unlocked during free spins. The “Naughty or Nice” book acts as the wild and pays the same amount as the highest-paying regular symbol – that’s 750x the current bet for a six-of-a-kind pay line in free spins or 500x your bet for five-of-a-kind during the base game. Rudolph makes an appearance next, paying 300x for six or 150x for five, followed by two child-looking characters who are both worth 100x or 50x for six or five-of-a-kind, respectively. There are five lower-paying royal symbols that are worth either 20x or 15x for the maximum combinations of six-of-a-kind.
As one of the few games available nowadays that still allow you to select how many pay lines you would like to play, you can bet as little as €0.01 per spin on a single pay line if you wish. With all ten paylines activated, the betting range runs between €0.10 and €20.00 per spin.
Base Game & Modifiers
Regular gameplay takes place on a standard 5×3 playfield with ten selectable paylines. This allows you to play less than ten paylines if you wish; however, this will result in the already extremely high variance of this slot being bumped even higher.
Naughty Or Nice Book
The one special feature of note in the base game of Naughty Nick’s Book is that the scatter symbol also acts as the game’s wild. This is particularly unusual in this game, as not only can you hit the book anywhere to hit a scatter win but hitting a full payline of books will pay you the higher wild prize listed on the paytable instead. It’s always nice when the scatter acts as the wild, but this unique configuration is even better, in my opinion!
Naughty Nick’s Book Slot Bonus Features
Hitting three or more scattered book symbols will trigger eight free spins. If the triggering combination includes more than three scattered books, the game will pay you an increased cash prize in addition to awarding the free spin bonus round.
Free Spins
The free spins feature awards eight free spins initially, and additional sets of eight free spins can be won by hitting three or more scattered book symbols whilst the feature is in play.
The free games feature is played on an extended 6×3 playfield, but there are still only ten possible active paylines. This requires the shape of each payline to change in comparison to the base game, so you may want to check out the diagrams on the paytable before beginning to play.
Additionally, your bonus round is also enhanced by an expanding symbol feature that works similarly to that offered in Play’N’Go’s popular Book of Dead online slot. At the start of your feature, the game will select one symbol from the paytable to act as the expanding symbol for the duration of the bonus round. If three or more of these symbols appear on any free spin, they will expand to cover the entire reel and pay as scatter symbols on all active paylines.
Naughty Nick’s Book Slot Review Final Thoughts
Naughty Nick’s Book borrows elements from several earlier Play’N’Go slots, such as Pimped and Book of Dead and moulds them into a somewhat unique package that makes a nice change from the typical Christmas slot. I think I’ll put this on my Christmas spin list – hopefully, I will fill my stocking with lots of lovely cash.
