Christmas Bonanza Slot

Christmas Bonanza… now this is a title that sounds promising, no? Arriving just in time for the holidays, Big Time Gaming has launched the festive version of the epic Bonanza slot. The epic slot led the way to the creation of some of the most amazing Megaways slots, and it remains the go-to slot for many fans. The Christmas Bonanza slot takes you to the familiar mine entrance, but this time, as expected, you see it covered in snow. The reels are filled with Christmas decorations, not in an exaggerated way, but giving it the right touch of the festive feel.

Other than keeping the underlying gold mining theme, with a Christmas touch, Big Time Gaming has kept the math model, too. You have the 6 reels which can have 2 to 7 rows, and produce up to 117,649 ways to win, and you see the 4-cell horizontal reel, too, above the middle reels. As expected, the Christmas Bonanza real money slot is highly volatile, and offers the mega-popular Megaways features, such as Reactions or otherwise known as Tumbles, Free Spins with Unlimited Multipliers, and where applicable, a Bonus Buy option.

As you can see when you load the Christmas Bonanza slot demo, nothing much has changed, other than the fact that the miners have decorated their little house on the left of the reels, as well as the reels themselves, and have prepared their Christmas gifts, wrapping them with the most festive bows. The reels are still at the center of the screen, and you see the mine entrance covered in snow, so you know Christmas is coming, even on the gold mining hill.

On the right, you have the Bonus Buy button first, where available, and by activating it, you’d need to stake 90x the bet to get access to the bonus round. Below it, you see the Stake configuration field, the display showing how much is staked at each spin, and the < and > arrows, where you can decrease or increase your bet, anywhere from $0.20 to $40 per spin.

Going further down, you see the three-bar button, where you’ll find the paytable. Inside, you’ll meet the low pays, the playing card Royals from 9 through A giving you 0.8x to 1.75x the stake for the top combo. The high-pays are the Christmas gift boxes, the red, blue, purple, and green, giving you anywhere from 2x to 50x the stake for a 6-of-a-kind combo. There’s the familiar TNT Wild, too, which plays its regular role, and the Scattered G, O, L, and D symbols, to be detailed below.

Next to the three-bar button, you see the Autoplay button, and right below them, you see the big green Play button. Below the reels, you see the Win display on the right and the Balance display on the left. We should also mention that above the reels, there’s a display, which shows exactly how many ways to win are in play on each spin.

Just like its predecessor, and other Big Time Gaming slots for that matter, Christmas Bonanza is a real money slot that can be played on both desktop and mobile devices. When it comes to mobile play, you can play it in both landscape and portrait modes, be it on an Android or iOS-powered smartphone or tablet. Just connect your device to the internet, join your favourite BTG casino and start playing it on the go!

In the base game, you'll be seeing the Reactions or Tumbles helping you create consecutive wins. When a winning combo occurs, the winning symbols are removed from the grid and the remaining symbols fall from the right on the horizontal reel or down on the main reels and fill in the gaps. If after the symbols settle, you create another win, the process is repeated; this happens for as long as you're creating new winning combos.

The Wild, of course, will be of great help here, as it will substitute for any missing symbol in the formation of winning combos.

When you manage to land all four Scattered G, O, L, and D Symbols, you trigger 12 Free Spins. Should more of these symbols land on the triggering spin, you get 5 extra Free Spins for each Scattered Symbol. During the Christmas Bonanza Free Spins Round, too, whenever you land 3 or 4 Scattered Symbols, you get 5 more or 10 more Free Spins, respectively.

Now, as you remember from the original, the star feature in the slot is the Unlimited Multiplier, which comes into play during the Free Spins. It starts at 1x when you trigger the Bonus Round and increases by 1+ after each Reaction or win. The best part is, there is no limit as to how big the Multiplier can get, and that’s why the slot can deliver a max payout of up to 26,000x the stake!

The Christmas Bonanza slot offers the average 96.00% RTP by default, which increases should you use the Bonus Buy option, to 96.11%. It is highly volatile, of course, and comes with a payout potential of 26,000x the stake.

Considering the minimum bet is $0.20, while the max is $40, the most you could win placing the minimum bet is $5,200. Placing the max bet, though, you could scoop the mega win of $1,040,000!

Considering it is basically a reskin of the original Bonanza slot, Christmas Bonanza is the slot to play right away. It offers the Megaways magic, the Unlimited Multipliers, and it is not overstuffed with Christmas décor, which is refreshing, considering the Christmas slots we’ve seen being released recently. The core gaming experience is important here, and the fact that slot can deliver a life-changing payout of over $1 million. This gives you more than a million reasons to try it at the best online slot sites, so make sure you do it the first chance you get.
