Visit Santa’s Village This Year With Habanero
Habanero is back again and just in time for Christmas. Their new online pokie is titled Santa’s Village and is set in what appears to be Saint Nick’s home town. With sumptuous graphics and a fantastic rendition of Jungle Bells as the in game soundtrack, it looks like this pokie is set to be an instant holiday classic.
The main game takes place against a warm and toasty living room backdrop with a Christmas tree and roaring fire, but the main bonus feature of this game sees you walking around Santa’s Village delivering presents.
Head of Corporate Communications at Habanero, Toni Karapetrov, said that as anticipation builds for the holiday season, Santa’s Village should find a bigger and bigger audience. He also highlighted the significant role that Santa himself plays in the bonus games and awarding special features.
Santa’s Village features a standard 5 reel layout popular in many pokies but with 15 paylines. This is an HTML 5 game making it perfectly compatible for both desktop and mobile players, meaning you can take this pokie along with you wherever you go this holiday season.
The Presents Under The Tree
The first bonus feature you will encounter is the present wild symbol. As with all other wilds, this symbol acts as a substitute symbol. Unlike other pokies though it will only pay out a win for 5 matched icons.
The Santa symbols are the icons you want to look out for though. These icons will trigger the main feature where you are taken to a special bonus screen. Here you will get an overhead perspective of Santa’s village as he walks from house to house delivering presents.
The amount of symbols that triggered this feature will equal the distance Santa gets to travel while delivering his gifts. If Santa encounters a fork in the road on his travels he will choose a direction at random. Best of all Santa’s progress is saved while you are playing the game so each time you trigger the bonus game you will move a bit further through the village.
Blue dots on his route will trigger additional features like Free Spins and cash prizes. The Free Spins feature comes in two flavours. The first is the Santa Spins where you get 12 free spins along with a giant Santa Wild appearing on the reels. The second flavour of bonus game is the Sleigh Free Spins. You still get 12 free spins but now you will see 2 to 4 random symbols be filled with the Wild present symbols. Santa’s Village is available now at online casinos that have Habanero pokies.
