Christmas Carol Megaways slot from Pragmatic Play uses Megaways mechanics and a familiar free spins bonus with an unlimited multiplier. It’s a nice theme, a little darker than some but it still looks good. There are 6 reels and the top row only has 4 with wilds too. You need a winning combination from left to right using the base symbols which are as follows, ranked in ascending order based on their value:
- 10, Jack or Queen
- King, Ace or Green Boy
- Blue Man
- Purple Woman
- Green Man
- Death
You have a wild symbol as well, substituting for all other symbols in a winning combination apart from the scatter. It only appears only on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5 on the top row.
Christmas Carol Megaways Slot Bonuses and Features
Tumble. This slot has a tumble feature meaning that whenever you get a win, those winning symbols will be removed and new ones will fall in their place. This happens in the same spin, and keeps happening until there are no more wins.
Free Spins Bonus. This slot is all about the free spins bonus, triggered by landing 4 or more scatter symbols anywhere on the reels. You have an unlimited win multiplier in this bonus, meaning every time a tumble occurs, your multiplier will increase by one. How many free spins and what your starting multiplier will be is determined by how many scatters you land and which bonus you choose:
- 4 scatters gives you the option of 15 free spins and a 1x multiplier, 10 spins and a 5x multiplier or 5 free spins and a 10x multiplier.
- 5 scatters gives you the option of 19 free spins and a 1x multiplier, 14 free spins and a 5x multiplier or 9 spins and a 10x multiplier.
- 6 scatters gives you 23 free spins and a 1x multiplier, 18 free spins and a 5x multiplier or 13 free spins and a 10x multiplier.
You can also choose a random number of free spins and multiplier. Landing 3 scatters during your free spins will give you 5 more free spins without limits.
Ante Bet. You can decide to increase your bet by 25% to increase your chance of triggering the free spins bonus by 2x.
Conclusion
Christmas Carol Megaways slot from Pragmatic Play is a fairly standard Megaways slot but with 1 crucial difference. I don’t mean the Christmas theme which is nice and of course appropriate for this time of the year, but the ante bet which lets you increase your stake by a fairly small amount in return for doubling your chances at triggering the bonus, the only reason you’ll want to play the game. It’s a nice touch and makes this game very appealing, not to mention the 20,000x stake maximum payout which is pretty high too. All in all, a good slot and worth considering if you like Megaways and unlimited win multipliers. You can check out some other Megaways slots if you like that here.
