The Mystical Santa Megaways is a 6 reeler offering up to 117, 649 ways to win. It accepts bets as low as 0.20 and as high as £20 per spin. Unlike most Megaways slots, it comes with medium volatility, which is a godsend for those who loathe seeing dead spin sequences.
The symbols you will land on the reels include low-value Royals in the shape of Christmas ginger cookies. The better-paying symbols are also Christmas-related – reindeer, elves, snowmen, and of course, Santa himself with the latter being the top payer among them.
There are two wild symbols – a standard one that replaces all regular symbols to help you land a win, and a second wild that awards you a random multiplier when it is a part of a winning combination.
Elf Bonuses
This is a randomly triggered feature. An elf might appear on the reels and award you with free spins or place extra wilds, matching symbols, or a wild multiplier on the reels.
Free Spins
Land 4 Christmas tree scatters in one spin and get 12 free spins. Every additional scatter you land gives you 5 extra free spins. During the free spins round, you may benefit from a multiplier. The Elf Bonus might also come into play.
Gamble Feature
After the controversy the Buy Free Spins feature spiked in the UK, Stakelogic decided to play it safe and integrate a Gamble feature instead. Whenever you score a win, you can either keep it or use the Gamble feature and try to double the amount.
Bottom Line
Although there is nothing extraordinary about the Mystical Santa Megaways, it does have eye-catchy visual content. The medium volatility will also be appreciated by players who shy away from taking huge risks but do not like the low variance slots either. The Mystical Santa Megaways is expected to go live at the beginning of December, just on time for the Christmas festivities. We will update this review once the slot is released.
