santa spins SLOT THEME, STAKES, PAYS & SYMBOLS

Yes, you heard that correctly – fishing-themed games are joining forces with Santa Claus, and we now have Christmas Big Bass Bonanza! I’m sure that fans of the franchise will be happy to see another fishing-themed game from Pragmatic Play, but for me personally, I’m much happier checking out an original take on the genre. There haven’t been too many other recent Christmas-themed releases just yet, but last year’s batch did have a few diamonds lurking in the rough, for example, Christmas Megaways and Royal Xmas. Will Red Tiger’s latest addition to the festive slot genre add anything new to the typical formula? Let’s dig a little deeper and find out!

Fans of Red Tiger slots can probably guess what I’m about to say next! The paytable is a frustrating affair as it does not update as you change the size of your wager. Let’s say you are betting one euro per spin; you’ll need to divide that by the 20 pay lines (= €0.05) and multiply that by the numbers shown on the paytable to get your expected winnings. We have a female character dressed in a Santa hat at the top of the table; she’s listed as being worth 800 coins, which I have calculated to mean you should receive 40x your current bet for a full pay line of five-of-a-kind. Rudolph is next, but the drop down to the value of his symbol is enormous as he will only pay you 15x for all five of his symbols. The bells are worth 10x, the reef is worth 5x for five-of-a-kind, and then there’s just a bog-standard selection of four royal symbols padding out the remainder of the paytable.

Some Red Tiger games have very limited betting ranges, but that is not the case here. I’ve come to realise that the developer sets their minimum and maximum permitted wagers based on how volatile and high variance each specific game is – ultra-high variance slots don’t require you to bet a week's salary on one spin, whilst on the other hand, games such as this one with a relatively low jackpot prize are much more likely to tempt players to be a little bit more. Anyway, back to Santa Spins, the minimum stake is just €0.10, while the game maxes out at €100 a play.

BASE GAME & MODIFIERS

Immediately after firing up Red Tiger’s latest game, you will be presented with a few pages of introductory information, filling you in on the various features, modifiers, and a healthy dose of suggestions regarding what you can expect once you get into the game properly. There are 20 fixed paylines and a stacked wild symbol that can be very profitable on the rare occasions when it decides to grace you with its presence!
