Wins of Winter Slot

It’s the time of year when feeling the chill becomes second nature, for most of us and it’s safe for us to say that it’s not likely to get warm for a while, but all hope is not lost! Wins of Winter by Fantasma Games has just made its wintery landing this month, to add a little more magic to your day during the cooler season. Upon entering the game, players will more than likely feel as if they’ve been thrown head-first into a winter wonderland, which may be right up your street if you’ve never paid Santa a visit in Lapland.

The Wins of Winter slot has been designed with the utmost precision, boasting stunningly formed graphics, which resemble a Disney animation in some senses, thanks to its very enchanting backdrop of stretches of land coated with the whitest snow, frozen lakes, shards of ice and coated Christmas tree tops, even if the slot theme is not directly intended to be one of Christmas. In short, it is a perfect addition to the online slot games market for the festive season and can be played for free or with real money from your top choice of casino sites.

The Wins of Winter slot is set against a mesmerizing wintery backdrop along with a very fitting soundtrack to keep things lively. The game's 5-reel slot grid has been formed in the shape of an ice sculpture, which contains a total of 20 fixed paylines for players to create their iciest wins across. The symbols appearing on the grid consist largely of a mix of high and low-paying symbols. All symbols are characterized as glistening gems in varying colors or 10-A card symbols.

Accumulating the same symbol combination payouts depends upon the player’s ability to form wins out of 5-figure symbol combinations. The 10-A card symbols remain at the lower end of the payout spectrum, paying between 0.75 and 1x the stake for the same symbol combination of five. The glistening gem symbols are operating from the higher end of the pay spectrum, awarding between 1-3.5x the stake for the same symbol combinations of five.

Wins can be generated from the Wild Symbols which can substitute for any of the regular symbols, they appear when the Winter Wild bonus feature has been activated. Collecting a total of 5 Wilds as part of the same winning combination can also award a payout of 3.5x the bet.

Players can opt to play the Wins of Winter slot from any device of their choosing. Like all iPhone slots, and Android slots, the Wins of Winter slot is compatible with all mobile smartphones, tablets, desktops, and laptops, thanks to the support of HTML5 technology.

It’s impossible to get lost when playing the Wins of Winter slot, as everything is so easy to navigate, thanks to the crisp and clear snow-filled surroundings. The player’s current balance, accumulated wins, and the current bet will be visible from the very bottom of the screen. The Spin, Autospin, Bet Adjusting Menu, Paytable, Volume Control, and all other additional information are clickable from the right-hand side of the screen.

To start the game, click on the pile of coins symbol which allows you to adjust your stake. This can be increased or decreased by clicking on the (+) or the (-) buttons. The bet can be set from as low as 0.20 and increased to the maximum bet of 160.00 in the player’s respective currency. Once all adjustments have been made, you can hit the spin and will be good to go!

The bonus games in the Wins of Winter slot consist largely of the Winter Wild Feature, Mirror Feature, Treasure Chest Feature as well as the epic Progression Meter.

The Winter Wild Feature works with the appearance of snow symbols, where it will drop a freeze frame onto the position within the reel where it landed. It’s also worth noting the original snow symbol can transform into a Gold Snow Symbol, which will then leave a Golden Freeze Frame on the reel in which it landed. The Golden Freeze Frame itself will award additional Wild Symbols for the next spin. Should more than one freeze frame be formed on the game grid, they will also transition into Wild Symbols at a later stage.

The Progression Meter also works with Snow Symbols, so when these symbols appear on the reels, 1 point will be added to the Progression Meter. It’s worth noting that as the meter increases in points, it will also increase in levels where additional bonus features will be awarded. For example, when the player has progressed with up to 50 points, then the Mirror Feature will trigger as a result of this. When the meter increases to 100 points, it will reactivate the Mirror Feature for the second time. However, when it reaches 150 points, the multiplier will make its way to the screen, where it can award a multiplier of anywhere between 1x all the way up to 100x. Another word of caution, when the multiplier is awarded, the Progression Meter will empty and reset.

The Mirror Feature works with the frozen and Golden Freeze Frames, appearing mainly on the 1st and 2nd reels, however, they can also appear on the 3rd and 4th reels.

The Chest Feature takes place from the right-hand side of the reels. When one of the chests lands, it will either award from 3 to 6 points onto the Progression Meter or will release between 2 to 4 random freeze frames onto the grid.

The additional Bonus Game will trigger based on the collection of 3 Bonus Symbols, formed as part of the same symbol combination, which would need to be collected from reels 2-4. The bonus game features “clicks” as opposed to “spins” which we would normally expect. So when the feature has been triggered, up to 18 clicks will be awarded to the player. Upon hitting each click, an amount of up to 20x the bet will be revealed to the player. The accumulation of wins will be added together to form the total, and this is where a random multiplier will be awarded.

The Wins of Winter slot is a highly volatile creation, with a default RTP of 96% which is above the average and a fair addition, given the volatility of the game. Players can expect maximum wins of up to 5,000x the stake if they know how to ace the game.

Wins of Winter slot is one hell of a winter wonder in terms of aesthetics and gameplay, in terms of its volatility, win potential, and epic bonus features, which do exceed expectations in the way that they reward players consistently throughout the game. This slot is most definitely worth a shot, for players who enjoy feature-heavy festive challenges and real money slots in general, but it’s worth noting how the process will go for any game that is likely to have a high volatility meter.
