Graphics and Theme

Christmas Carol Megaways is a bright and colourful online slot which has embraced its theme with both arms. The background for the base game is a snow-lined street from London in the Gregorian era. The board is a frozen gilded mirror of sorts, which looks like something you may find in the cold recesses of Scrooge’s home.     The regular symbols are a variety of letters, whereas the special symbols are portrayed as a handful of the iconic characters from the book. These include Tiny Tim and the Ghosts of Christmas present, future and past (the ghost of Christmas past looking particularly menacing as the grim reaper). When you trigger the bonus round, you are taken to a range of new settings, including Scrooge’s accounting office. The music for this game is an uplifting festive piece, designed to bring good cheer to all who play the game.

Bonuses for this game revolve mostly around triggering the various free spins rounds on offer, yet there are other bonuses to be won apart from these. The first decision players need to make though, is if they would like to play with the Ante Bet option switched on. This will mean that players pay an extra 25% per spin but will get double the chance of triggering the bonus round as more scatters will be randomly added to the reels.

The first feature for this game is the Cascading Wins feature, one that is common in Megaways slots. The bonus feature is triggered when you get a win on the reels. It refills the winning symbols with new symbols for another chance to win. The feature repeats itself until the player loses a repeat spin.

The main bonuses, however, are triggered when you manage to land 4 of Scrooge’s pocket watch on the reels on the same spin, this will trigger the Free Spins round. Each extra scatter you land over these 4 adds four extra spins to your tally. The bonus rounds you may pick from when this feature is triggered are explained below.

-15 spins with the progressive win multiplier starting at 1x.

-10 spins with the progressive win multiplier starting at 5x.

-5 spins with the progressive win multiplier starting at 10x.

-Mystery Choice – between 5 and 15 free spins and a multiplier between 1x and 10x.

Scatters such as the pocket watch can only land on the top reels when players are within the bonus round. If you land three on the top reels, you get an extra five spins. There is no limit to the number of free spins you can win in this way. The progressive win multiplier will also increase with +1 for each cascading win. Luckily for the player. The multiplier does not reset on losing spins, plus there is no maximum limit you can hit for the multiplier.

Additionally, there is a bonus buy option. It costs you 100x your stake but will give you at minimum four scatters on the next spin. Sadly, this is not available for UK players.
