Santa’s Slay Demo (Pragmatic Play) Slot Demo & Review

Game Overview

Reel Kingdom, along with Pragmatic Play, is unwrapping a new kind of holiday chaos this year with Santa’s Slay, a highly volatile slot with sticky wilds, stacked multipliers, and a maximum win potential of up to 2,000x!

Theme & Design

At first glance, Santa’s Slay feels like the perfect postcard from the North Pole. You’ll see snow-tipped trees, glowing lights, and a cute reindeer wearing a Santa hat – and it’s definitely one of the better-looking slots we’ve seen from the Reel Kingdom studio!

If you’re used to playing games like Big Bass Bonanza and Spirit of Adventure, you’ll also know how their games look; just don’t be surprised to see Pragmatic Play’s branding, as they use their game engine.

Now, the symbols in Santa’s Slay include playing card values, including jack, queen, king, and ace, while the high value symbols include theme-specific icons like bells, stockings, and candy canes!

Santa’s Slay Gameplay & Features

Santa’s Slay plays on a 5-reel, 4-row grid with 10 fixed paylines, so it’s a pretty familiar setup.  classic line-based gameplay wrapped in a holiday theme. Bets range from €0.05 to €480 per spin. The slot runs on a very high volatility math model, with a default RTP of 96.53%.

Now, it’s a great-looking slot, but it doesn’t have the most going for it, and the sole bonus round is the free spins feature. This is triggered by landing 3, 4, or 5 of the scatter symbols anywhere in view, awarding you with 10, 15, or 30 free spins, respectively.

During the free spins bonus, up to 8 wild symbols can be randomly added to the screen, and these remain sticky for the duration of the feature. Plus, if more than one wild symbol lands in the same reel position, that wild becomes a multiplier wild, 2x, 3x, and so on.

It’s also possible to re-trigger additional spins by landing another 3, 4, or 5 of the scatter symbols anywhere in view. Doing so awards you with 10, 15, or 30 extra free spins.

Ante Bet & Buy Feature

For players who prefer to skip the base game and head right into the action, Santa’s Slay offers two direct paths to the feature: the Ante Bet and Bonus Buy.

If you enable the Ante Bet, your base game stake increases by 100%, but your chances of landing the bonus round double. You can also use the bonus buy option to purchase instant entry into the free spins round for a cost of 100x your stake.
