Have you ever wondered what it would be like to celebrate Christmas holidays with Santa himself?
With Santa’s Big Bash Megaways you get to see what a real Christmas party is supposed to look like!
This 6-reeled online one-armed bandit comes with up to 117,649 ways to win, impressive graphics and a pleasant musical piece!
Then again, it also comes with some interesting special features – Wild Symbol, Magic Baubles, Rudie the Reindeer and Free Spins!
Theme and Symbols
As soon as you power up this Christmas-themed online slot you will find yourself in Santa's living room that’s decorated with various Christmas decorations and trees, while the fireplace sets up a cozy atmosphere.
Symbols that appear on the reels will also do a good job of keeping you immersed as they appear in the form of elves with beer, gingerbread cookies, guys with candles, Santa’s Elves, and, of course, the Santa Himself, all acting as symbols that award more lucrative payouts.
The lower paying symbols don’t look too bad either, taking the form of card symbols A-10 decorated with Christmas lights!
Betting Options and Other Functions
Unfortunately, the betting options that this online product comes with are not the greatest, which is not something that we’re used to by Iron Dog Studio software provider.
While newer and casual players who enjoy rolling with lower stakes will be excited to hear that the lowest bet amounts to only 0.30 credits, high-rolling punters probably won’t be as happy to hear that the highest bet amounts to 3 credits.
However, despite not having higher betting options, payouts can still get quite hard in this online game with very high volatility as it comes with a theoretical return to player of 96.04% and the highest win that awards a hefty payout of 25,000x your stake!
Special Features
- Wild Symbol – The Wilds only appear on reels 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 as wrapped gift boxes that will substitute all standard symbols.
- Magic Baubles – The Magic Baubles can land on the reels after tumbles and whenever they do, they will activate up to 3 Baubles that can be found on the Christmas tree that’s located on the right side of the reels.
- Rudie the Reindeer – Whenever Rudie appears on the reels, he will award you with either up to 4 additional Wilds on tumbles, up to 3 positions on the Christmas tree or even a Re-spin!
- Free Spins – The Free Spins feature is triggered by activating at least 8 Baubles that can be found on the Christmas tree. During this feature reels that come with 7 symbols will always reveal 7 symbols, while each reel that’s locked on this amount of symbols increases the multiplier by 1!
Verdict
All said and done, Iron Dog Studio managed to do a great job with Santa’s Big Bash Megaways.
Cozy atmosphere, interesting bonus features and great payout potential make this online product a solid all-rounder.
Then again, if Christmas isn’t really your thing, this provider also has some interesting online slots with the Megaways™ mechanic that might be more to your liking!
