The Xmas Magic slot game is a Play N Go offering that is designed to bring the early Christmas spirit to gamers of all kinds. The slot is a 5 reel machine, which has a whopping 50 pay-lines so there is a great deal of volatility about it. The game comes with an RTP rating of 96.5%, which is perfectly respectable at the present time.
Theme
Some slots don’t give the game away in terms of a theme with its title. The Xmas Magic slot is not one of those! Christmas might usually be associated with December but it comes all year round with this game. The slot is set in the city with a huge Christmas tree in the distance and everything else that goes with a city at Christmas time. Midnight is approaching and Santa is coming with gifts!
There are plenty of symbols involved in the making of this game. We have the regular ones, such as A, K, Q, J, 10 and even as far down as 9, while there are lower icons in play, too. They include snow globes, candy canes, stockings and hot chocolate but it is the mistletoe that we really want. That pays the best of all the regular symbols.
Betting and winning
The minimum bet for this game comes at just 0.50, 0.01 per pay-line, while the maximum is 100 2 per pay-line, so although it can be played by all budgets, there is a fairly high amount of volatility to the game, as indeed there are in a lot of the creations by Play N Go. Wins come from matching combinations of three of any symbol.
There are 50 pay-lines in play so there are a lot of ways in which a win can be launched. All symbols pay out a win of some kind but if you can get your pay-line full of mistletoe symbols you can win 20 times your original stake! That is the most that can be won in the regular format of the game.
Wilds
There aren’t too many features in this game so the wild symbols can be quite important. It comes in the form of a nice present with a bow on it and that substitutes every other symbol in the game except for Santa, who is the scatter, which triggers the one bonus feature that is on show. It also forms multipliers to any wins.
Free bets feature
If you get three Santa icons on the board then you will activate the Free Spins feature. You will be presented with 10 free spins initially. On each spin, two wilds will appear between reels two and five to give you an increased chance of winning.
Gamble your winnings
As with a lot of machines now there is a gamble feature. You have the chance to double or quadruple any win you have. If you choose to pick the colour of the next card drawn from a stack and get it right you double your money. If you choose to pick the suit and are correct you quadruple your win. Lose though and the money disappears.
Summary
There are a lot of Christmas themed slots in the market and in many cases if you’ve played one you feel like you’ve played them all. However, Xmas Magic can be played to small or large stakes and so all gamers are welcome to get stuck into it. It is always worth a play this one, if for no other reason than to brighten up your mood and bring some Christmas spirit into your life!
