Naughty Nick's Book Review
Santa is taking a vacation this year and he's left his massive seat open for someone else to fill. Unfortunately for us, the person that is filling that seat is Naughty Nick who is notorious for being on Santa's bad list. This Christmas season, expect to be rewarded for being naughty.
Developed by Play'n GO, Naughty Nick's Book is a unique play on Christmas and the 'Book Of' theme to deliver something that is the furthest thing from being wholesome. In terms of gameplay, there is nothing too exciting, but you'll be blown away by the overall presentation.
Design
If you were looking for a festive and charming Christmas slot, then this is not the one for you. The overall tone of this slot is leaning more towards a dirtier and messy Christmas inspired by adult comics and cartoons created by Viz. You just have to look at the background of the slot to find a Christmas tree filled with genitals as well as alcohol and underwear thrown across the screen.
As for the symbols on the reels, there are your typical Christmas characters with reindeer and elves, but these are ones that have been twisted by Naughty Nick. All the characters look drunk and have definitely been tainted by the allure of being naughty. Nick himself appears on the reels as a deadbeat dad dressed up as Santa. There is nothing special about him aside from being the furthest thing from magical.
Ultimately, the design is going for something scummy and definitely nailed it. Kudos to Play'n GO for deciding to do something different for a Christmas slot as it stands out amongst the rest - whether that's for good or bad reasons is up to you.
Gameplay
This is your typical 'Book Of' slot with free spins and an expanding symbol. If you are looking for something straightforward with no complicated gameplay, then you've come to the right slot.
That's not to say that the gameplay is bland but it's nothing that will blow you away. Despite this, we did notice a new feature from Play'n GO with the chance to gamble certain wins to try to double the wins which will appeal to some high rollers.
Win Potential
Like most 'Book Of' slots, this game contains a high volatility level. This ultimately means that wins will tend to be on the larger side but these will not appear too frequently. Therefore, we suggest you have the bankroll to sustain yourself.
Alongside this, there is a decent RTP of 96.28% which is over the average standard and at quite a decent level. We tend to recommend playing anything with an RTP over 96% unless there is a progressive jackpot attached.
Finally, this slot contains a mighty maximum win of 7,500x the stake which is achieved through the free spins round with the expanding symbols. The best thing about this win is that it's not too high to be unobtainable but it's also big enough to delight players.
Our Verdict
When we opened up Naughty Nick's Book, we honestly didn't know what to expect. Christmas slots tend to be quite predictable but this one certainly was not with the theme. This will definitely appeal to players looking for a little extra humour.
Our only issue was the lack of additional gameplay aside from the free spins round. However, this was not a deal breaker and we still had an incredible time with the slot. If this sounds like your cup of tea, then do not hesitate to join the naughty list.
