Christmas Bonanza Megaways Slot Features

Cascading Reels

Just like in the original slot game, you can benefit from reaction wins each time you land a win, with the winning symbols removed from the reels, and new ones falling down to take their place. This can lead to chain reactions if you’re lucky enough, with multiple successive wins occurring.

Wild Symbols

Wild symbols will appear in the base game, substituting in for other symbols to complete wins.

Free Spins Bonus

Aside from the Christmas Presents and Playing Card symbols, you can also encounter Bonus symbols in Christmas Bonanza Megaways.

Landing at least four of the Gold Bar Scatter symbols will trigger the Free Spins Bonus and award an initial 12 free spins. It is possible to gain an extra five free spins for each extra Scatter symbol you land. You can also re-trigger this bonus round by landing three or more Scatter symbols during it.

The main appeal of this bonus round is the unlimited multiplier that increases with each successive reaction win. As you would expect, this can quickly stack up and lead to some very big cash wins.

There are no limits on how high the multiplier can grow, so you can potentially hit the game’s maximum win if you land some good chain reactions early on.

Our Verdict The free spins in Christmas Bonanza Megaways were fun to play through. It's always nice to get more than 10 free spins as a baseline, so 12 was a welcome addition. Add in the fact you can re-trigger free spins, as well as the multipliers, and you're in for a satisfying time.

Christmas Bonanza Megaways Slot RTP & Volatility

RTP	Variable RTP	Volatility
96%	No	High

Christmas Bonanza Megaways offers a return to player of 96%, which is bang on the industry average.

Much like the original, it is considered a high volatility slot game - which means it is high risk, high reward.

Our Verdict It's hard to argue with an industry average RTP, so we won't. The high volatility also means that a dramatic big win feels like it's just around the corner, making for a more thrilling experience.
