Jingle Balls

Jingle Balls offers a very grown-up version of Christmas, far removed from the mawkish, traditional settings. Nolimit City takes us behind the scenes of a Christmas Eve that has clearly gone off the rails for Santa and his gang. Find out more about the specifics of this quirky, humorous slot.

The grid on which you’ll play Jingle Balls comprises 6 reels, with the fifth and sixth reels locked into the base game. The default reel configuration is 3-3-4-5-5 rows capable of triggering up to 614656 ways to win when all reels are unlocked. This grid configuration will then reverse during the bonus. To unlock the last two reels, you’ll need to find one or two Scatters on the screen.

As for the game’s statistics, expect a high-volatility experience, an RTP of 96.10% and a winning potential of up to 12250x the stake. You’ll need to wager between $0.20 and $200 per spin to hope to reap these rewards in Jingle Balls, but also be aware that an xBet wager increases the stake by 50% in exchange for guaranteeing the presence of a Scatter on the second reel, which not only unlocks the fifth reel, but also facilitates access to bonuses.

Despite his shortcomings, Jingle Balls’ Santa Claus can deliver up to 12250x the stake to players during the game.

To start collecting prizes on the reels, you’ll need to line up between 3 and 6 identical symbols, from left to right, starting from the leftmost reel. Santa Claus, the Old Lady, the Elf, the Grinch and Rudolph symbols can pay between 1.35x and 6x the stake, and the picture will be completed with less rewarding gift-like symbols, paying between 0.15x and 3x the stake.

In addition to the regular payouts you can get, Jingle Balls concentrates several features already seen in other Nolimit City games: xWays, xNudge Wild, xSplit Wilds and three levels of Free Spins with their bonus purchase options.

xWays

The xWays symbol can appear on reels 1 and 2 in the base game and on reels 5 and 6 in Spirit Spins Bonus. It will reveal 2 or 3 random symbols of the same type and when split by an xSplit Wild, the value of the xWays multiplier will double.

xNudge Wild

xNudge Wilds can appear on reels 3 and 4 during the base game and in Spirit Spins Bonus. These are a group of stacked Wilds that always move so as to be fully visible, with each move increasing the multiplier by 1x. Multiple Wild multipliers will add up to a total Wild multiplier. When the xSplit Wild splits an xNudge Wild, it will add another Wild to the reel.

xSplit Wilds & Wilds

Regular Wilds may appear on the reels. xSplit Wilds can appear on reels 5 and 6 during base game play, and on reels 1 and 2 during Bonus Spirit Spins. The xSplit Wilds symbols will split and double all symbols from left to right. If the symbol is split more than once, it will be displayed with a multiplier. In addition, the xSplit Wild that splits a Scatter will transform that Scatter into an Expanding Wild that will fill the entire reel with Wilds.

Spirit Spins

Find 3, 4 or 5 Christmas Star Scatter symbols to trigger the following bonuses respectively: Spirit Spins, Spirit Spins: All Aboard or Spirit Spins: Double Joy.

Before the bonus starts, a setup round takes place to determine the number of free spins awarded and the win multiplier applied to the strong symbols. One of these symbols will be randomly selected and active during the bonus.

When 4 or more Scatter symbols appear, all the strong symbols will be activated, and with 5 Scatters, you’ll double the multiplier value during setup and during the bonus.

During the bonus, the top reel can grant an increase in the multiplier of active strong symbols. In Spirit Spins mode, the current win multiplier can be increased by +1x, +2x or doubled. In Spirit Spins Double Joy mode, the current win multiplier can be increased by +2x, +4x or doubled. The win multiplier is updated at the current spin and remains so for the duration of the bonus.

Collecting additional Scatters will earn you one extra free spin per Scatter. Collecting 3 during Spirit Spins will allow you to access Spirit Spins: All Aboard mode, which activates win multipliers on all strong symbols.

Nolimit Bonus

Access the various Spirit Spins modes at any time for between 60x and 486x the stake, depending on options.
