Megaways Jack Frost Slot Bonuses and Features
Wild Symbols. These substitute for all other symbols in a winning combination.
Tumbles. Like many other slots, this game has tumbles. This means that whenever you get a win, those winning symbols are removed from the screen and this allows new ones to fall in from above to replace them. If this makes more wins, the same will happen again and again until there are no more wins, all within the same spin.
Jack Frost. This is a special symbol that can appear on reel 2. Whenever it lands, it guarantees a win, turning a random number of symbols into other symbols to form a win. If it lands on a wild symbol, it will gain a 2x wild multiplier.
Free Spins Bonus. This is triggered by landing 4 scatter symbols on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5 at the same time. Before the bonus starts, you’ll be taken to a separate screen to determine how many spins you’ll get, between 5 and 10, as well as your starting multiplier up to 8x, up to 7 locked reels and how many reels Jack Frost can land on, up to 5. Jack Frost has a more significant role during free spins. When he lands, he can also offer more free spins, a multiplier boost, locked reels to always show 7 symbols, more reels for him to land on, high-value symbols and converting low-value symbols.
Bonus Buy. In some regions, you can buy the main bonus. For 100x your stake you’ll get random starting values, for 160x you’ll get at least 8 free spins and for 200x you’ll get at least 8 free spins with at least a 4x multiplier.
Conclusion
Megaways Jack Frost slot from Iron Dog Studios is a stunning new Christmas-themed game with some classic Megaways features like tumbles, as well as the all important Jack Frost symbol. This can work well even in the base game, but during the free spins bonus it takes on a new role and can offer more free spins, multipliers, locked reels and more. I like how the start of each bonus is different and can be very rewarding, or sometimes not so much. It’s a shame there’s no bonus buy in the U.K. as it would be nice to guarantee a minimum number of spins and multipliers. Overall, a great Christmas-themed slot with a big potential.
