9 Gifts of Christmas

Have you ever wondered what Santa is hiding in his sack? Aurum Signature Studios has the answer with 9 Gifts of Christmas. This slot transports you to a winter wonderland leading to Santa's workshop.

With 5-reels and 20 paylines, this Christmas slot keeps it classic with the gameplay. In this slot, you'll find free spins paired with the Epic Strike fixed jackpot. You'll be unlocking the 9 Gifts of Christmas in no time.

Design

If Christmas is not a time of year that you want to remember, then this is not the slot for you. Visually, this slot is overflowing with Christmas spirit in the form of snow, bells, chocolate, letters, holly and Santa.

All of these symbols appear on the reel in quite a tasteful fashion. Nothing is too tacky and it all comes together quite well. However, that changes during big wins when Santa starts dancing next to the reel and it looks like a terrible gif thrown onto the screen.

Santa is easy to bypass if you just shut your eyes. The audio is another matter. There are bells and jingles echoing the Christmas spirit. It is upbeat and festive but can get a little too overwhelming at times. Thankfully, the mute button is not too far!

Gameplay

9 Gifts of Christmas is not the next revolution in the slot world. However, there are some entertaining moments with the Epic Strike and the free spins round. With Epic Strike, you can trigger a fixed jackpot on any spin provided there are gift symbols.

As for the free spins round, you can trigger the bonus by landing 3 scatter symbols. There is a wheel that spins to determine the free spins and the multipliers with a maximum of 30 with x3 in multipliers.

Ultimately, the gameplay is quite thrilling with these two elements keeping it simple as well. This means that 9 Gifts of Christmas can appeal to both newcomers and seasoned players (depending on your tastes in Christmas).

Win Potential

With the volatility, this slot also stands out as the perfect go-between for casual and seasoned players. 9 Gifts of Christmas has a medium volatility level leading to both low and high wins. There is no set frequency meaning you can have small wins appearing often or big ones rarely occurring.

Thankfully, this slot contains an RTP of 96.24% which is over the average standard. Anything above 96% is given the thumbs up by the Slot Gods. Finally, onto the win. In this slot, you can gain up to 2,000x the stake through the fixed jackpot. This is nothing massive but we certainly wouldn't say no to the win!

Our Verdict

This is exactly what you'd expect with a Christmas slot. The design is cheesy and overly whimsical, whilst the gameplay is simple but with engaging features.

9 Gifts of Christmas is not going to change the world, but it'll delight players looking for a little festive spirit in their lives. For those looking for a little bit of holiday cheer, give 9 Gifts of Christmas a spin for a marvellous time.
