Fat Santa Slot Review

Fat Santa Slot Overview

It’s festive season for Push Gaming in their fun and cartoonish release, Fat Santa. Harking back to their earlier hit, Fat Rabbit, this game switches out the Rabbits for very hungry Santas and swaps the carrots for good old Christmas Pies. Should you opt to take this yuletide slot for a spin, you will find a game featuring Random Wilds, a Free Spins Bonus enhanced by an ever-expanding Santa, and max win potential of 6,405x.

It is certainly nothing new to see a developer re-theme a previous online slots release, but Push Gaming has done a nice job with Fat Santa. Rather than being a simple re-skin job, there’s enough here to distinguish the game from Fat Rabbit – not least the lower volatility model, which makes for a far smoother ride. The base game ticks along nicely, with the random Santa’s Sleigh feature doing just enough to keep things interesting. However, as with many slot games of this type, most of the fun is to be found in the Free Spins Bonus, where Santa just can’t get enough of those pies! Fun, well-balanced, and with solid win potential for this level of game, Fat Santa has all the attributes to be a festive hit.

Baubles inlaid with the four card suits, Clubs, Diamonds, Hearts, and Spades serve as the low-paying symbols. The high-paying icons then consist of Presents, Reindeer, Snowmen, and Santa’s Helpers and award 6-20x for five-of-a-kind.

Fat Santa Slot Features

Wild Symbols

Fat Santa and Christmas Pie symbols act as this game’s Wild symbols, substituting for all standard pay symbols to help create winning combinations.

Santa’s Sleigh Feature

During the base game, keep an eye out for the Santa’s Sleigh feature, which may randomly appear at any time. Whenever this kicks into gear, Fat Santa will zoom across the reels in his sleigh, depositing a collection of Christmas Pie Wilds onto the reels – increasing your chances of landing a winning combination.

Fat Santa Free Games Feature 3spin_Pie-on-the-reel — Free Spins Bonus

Fat Santa Free Spins Bonus

Landing a Fat Santa Wild and a Christmas Wild on the same spin will trigger this bonus round and award an initial five free spins. The Fat Santa symbol remains locked onto the game grid.

The key feature of this bonus round is Fat Santa’s mission to eat all the Christmas Pies that appear. Any time a Christmas Pie Wild lands, Fat Santa will move to the pie and devour it, with all eaten pies being added to a collection meter to the right of the reels. Filling this meter then triggers the upgrades, which come in four steps as follows:

Step 1 - 3x additional free spins and Santa expands to a 2x2 Wild
Step 2 - 2x additional free spins and Santa expands to a 3x3 Wild
Step 3 - 2x additional free spins and Santa expands to a 4x4 Wild
Step 4 - 1x additional free spin and Santa expands to a 5x5 Wild, covering the entire reels

Our Verdict: The slot's Free Spins Bonus was a lot of fun to play through. The collection feature with the Pie Wilds was a nice addition which added an extra layer of drama to the spins.

The game's return to player percentage of 96.45%, is a nice nudge above the industry average RTP of 96%. The game is also classed as medium volatility.

Fat Santa Slot Graphics & Audio

Graphics

The Christmas theme is front and centre of this slot. The reels are set in front of a snowy backdrop with log cabins in sight. The colourful symbols really stand out on the white background, producing small animations when they form a winning combination.

Fat Santa (Push Gaming) 1 — Free spins in action

Fat Santa (Push Gaming) 2 — Expanded Santa Wild

Fat Santa (Push Gaming) 3 — Hungry Santa

Audio

A jaunty Christmas carol style tune plays in the background, accompanied by sleigh bells. The sounds can be turned off in the game's settings if you prefer silent spinning.

Our Verdict: The slot's presentation fits the theme really well. You know exactly hat you're getting with a Christmas themed slot - a more child-like theme and a design more on the cute end of the scale.
