Santa's Reel Wheel Slots

There's something about Christmas slots. Whether you're playing them in December or July, they can warm your heart in a way holiday media just seems to do. It's inevitable! If you're a slot fan, the fact of the matter is you're going to eventually indulge in some kind of holiday slot - whether it's to celebrate Valentine's Day, Halloween, or Christmas like this RealTime Gaming classic we are about to examine. RealTime Gaming has published some of my favorite holiday themed slots over the years, such as Bubble Bubble, which might be the best Halloween slot to ever exist. So I was not surprised when I tried out Santa's Reel Wheel Slot and loved it immediately.

Basics

This game is played on three single lines, and is arranged in levels. This platform has Santa's Bonus Wheel, Santas Mega Bonus Wheel, and Free games and a Firework Bonus! The mechanics and way this slot is designed aren't your typical game, so I highly suggest playing it in demo mode before betting any real money, just so you can understand the mechanics of the game before placing any large bets. There is a three reel game, and a bonus wheel located next to it. If you trigger a win on the primary game, or land one or more firework symbols during that game, you'll activate the three reel, level 2 game. If you land a win on level 2, or land one or more firework symbols, you'll activate the level three game. If you win on level three, or land one or more firework symbols during that game, then you'll activate Santas Bonus Wheel! All symbols pay any on a single line and the maximum win obtainable from this game is 5,000x your bet.

If you find that a little confusing, don't worry - just give it a try and the way it works will become obviously. You need to break the ice that is confining each level. Aesthetically, this game is just cute and wholesome. As I said, it'll have chestnuts roasting on your fire in no time. The game takes place in the North Pole. Behind the reels, Santa's log cabin house can be seen, decorated with lights and snow. Behind the reels themselves are several pine Christmas trees lightly frosted with snow and covered with Christmas lights. There is even an adorable snowman located on the right side of the reel. The wild symbol is the diamond, and the scatter symbol is the firework symbol. The blue diamond counts for all symbols except for the scatter symbol. Your prize is 2x or 4x your bet if one or two diamonds appear on a win while playing on level three. The regular symbols are all themed after Christmas, so items like wrapped presents, candy canes, jingle bells, and mistletoe will be found throughout gameplay. These are the premium symbols that payout more, the low paying symbols are the spade, diamond, heart and club.

Special Features

When the bonus wheel is activated during normal play, it'll award an Instant Bonus, a Fireworks Bonus, or it'll advance play to Santa's Mega Bonus Wheel. When you activate Santa's Mega Bonus Wheel, it'll award either the Fireworks Bonus or you'll land up to 20 free games. Play starts at Level 2 when you start free games, and if free games are activated during Santa's Bonus Wheel, you'll be awarded extra free games or the Fireworks Bonus.
