Santa’s Free Spins Goes Live
It may seem a bit ironic that a pokie from a company called Inspired Games can have such a generic title but Santa’s Free Spins is actually a very solid game with good features that can provide fun and rewards. At first glance this pokie won’t convince you to play it.
While the graphics are sharp and well done, the bland snowy background just does nothing to excite. Even though the graphics are perfectly fitting for the theme, it is just a shame that we couldn’t see more original elements.
The reel symbols are pretty generic Christmas icons, like a variety of presents, a star, Santa on his sleigh and the game logo. Fortunately Inspired Gaming did add a wild icon which substitutes for all symbols except the special Santa Free Spins symbol. Other than acting as a substitute symbol, the wild won’t serve any other function or offer any additional prizes.
The Bonuses And Additional Features
Santas’s Free Spins includes a Fortune Bet feature. This activates when a player double their staked wager. This will mean that the bonus symbols and other modifiers appear more frequently on the reels, increasing your odds of winning.
The free spins game is triggered by the Santa symbol and the amount of triggering symbols determines the amount of free spins. This means you can expect to get between 8 and 16 free spins. While the Free Spins round is active, the high value game logo symbols will appear on the reels stacked and will also appear more often.
The Random Rewards
Inspired Gaming has also included 4 randomly awarded features in Santa’s Free Spins. First up is the Super Bonus feature, which will put more Free Spins bonus symbols on the reels improving your odds of activating the bonus game.
Then there is the 5-of-a-kind bonus that will guarantee you a 5-of-a-kind win. The third randomly awarded feature is the Big Win feature which will give you an automatic game logo symbol win, which is the highest valued icon in the game.
Then finally you can get the Giftus Maximus bonus that will put giant icons on the reels awarding big wins. These random features are lot of fun and being able to control how regularly they can trigger with the Bonus Bet option is a great addition that adds to the rewards of this game. It certainly feels like Christmas is coming early this year.
