How To Play Santa’s Riches Mobile Slot
Time to grab your candy canes and head to the North Pole as this Santa’s Riches slot slowly reveals all of the presents within.
Set on a snowy landscape overlooking to Aurora Borealis, you are heading straight North to find the jolly fat man who hides all the presents in the world in the Santa’s Riches mobile slot.
Can you help him unload his riches and get that warm and fussy feeling inside? We think so, especially as you start off playing with a 5 reel, 3 rows slot machine with 20 paylines that pay left to right, and then unlock a 6 reels 5 rows game with 50 win lines that pay in both directions.
Every win explodes and expands the reels
You’ll notice when you open up this Santa’s Riches slot game that half the slot is frozen in ice, and it’s your job to warm it up with wins.
This is a cascading reels slot, meaning every single win explodes and more symbols tumble from above.
But what makes this stand out is that the frozen symbols will start to unlock as you get more and more win lines (from 20, to 40 to 50 paylines) . More interestingly, the game now pays from left to right and from right to left.
In other words what would happen if you crossed the Reel Rush slot with the Starburst slot game. Only in this particular machine you can win more and trigger more free spins.
Santa’s Riches slot is all about mystery symbols and free spins
Once you get 4 wins in a row, you’ll trigger 5 free spins in this Santa’s Riches online slot with the whole game unlocked. The more wins in a row you can get, the better the feature:
- 4 wins: added mystery symbols
- 5 wins: added stacked mystery symbols
- 6 wins: added 2×2 mega mystery symbols
- 7 wins: added 3×2 mega mystery symbols
These mystery symbols really work to give you those bigger wins, and adds some real animations to the reels. Getting more than just mystery reels is a little difficult, but then again, the wins come quick and easy and we didn’t mind too much.
This is a Novomatic slot game at its best: familiar, a little unusual, but a whole load of seasonal cheer.
