Wild Re-Spins

  • Wild Symbols appear on reels 1 and 5 in the main game and all reels during Free Spins.
  • Wild symbol substitutes for all symbols.
  • After a Wild symbol appears on the reels and all bet wins are awarded for that spin, each Wild shifts one place horizontally on the reels and a Re-Spin is awarded. Wilds that shift horizontally during Re-Spins are called Walking Wilds.
  • There are 2 different types of Walking Wild symbols: Santa Wilds and Rudolf Wilds.
  • Rudolf Wilds appear on reel 1 and move horizontally one reel to the right at the start of each re-spin while Santa Wilds appear on reel 5 and move one place to the left at the start of each re-spin.
  • If a Santa Wild and a Rudolf Wild are in the same position on the reels, the Wilds will lock into that position and merge together. At the end of the current spin and after any potential bet line wins are awarded, Free Spins are activated.
  • After Free Spins, any Wilds not part of the Wild interaction that activated the Free Spins remain on the reels and continue to activate re-spins until they disappear from the reels. The Wilds that activated Free Spins disappear on the next spin and no more re-spins are activated.

Free Spins

  • A Santa Wild and a Rudolf Wild merging together on the reels in the main game activates 10 Free Spins. The maximum amount of Free Spins that can be activated at the same time in the main game are 30.
  • During Free Spins both Santa and Rudolf Wilds can appear anywhere on the reels.
  • If Santa and Rudolf Wilds merge during Free Spins, an additional 4 Free Spins will be added. As with the main game, after this merging occurs, the Wilds that activated the Free Spins will disappear from the reels.
  • During Free Spins, 2 meters appear above the reels. The meters correspond to the Wilds that appear on the reels during Free Spins.
  • When a Santa or Rudolf Wild moves off the reels it fills 1 space on the corresponding meter. Each meter has 8 spaces.
  • If 1 of the meters is filled before Free Spins ends, a corresponding bonus feature is awarded that starts at the end of the Free Spin session.
  • If 1 of the Santa's Gifts or Rudolf Spins meters become full, it is not possible for the other meter to fill up.

Bonus Features

  • When either the Santa's Gifts or Rudolf Spins meters are filled during Free Spins, the corresponding bonus feature is activated and starts when Free Spins end.
  • There are 2 bonus features: Rudolf Spins or Santa's Gifts.
  • The Rudolf Spins is activated when the Rudolf Spins meter is filled while the Santa's Gifts is activated when the Santa's Gifts Meter is filled.
  • In Santa's Gifts there are 3 item sets where a player clicks on 1 of 5 items to reveal their prize. The 5 items that a player chooses from in each set are: 3 coin wins of various amounts, 1 multiplier increase and 1 end of stage item.
  • When a player picks a coin win it is added to their running coin total for the Santa's Gifts. The player can have another pick from the remaining items in the current set.
  • The multiplier starts at 1 at the beginning of the Santa's Gifts. When a player picks the multiplier increase symbol the multiplier increases by 1. Player may then make another pick from the remaining items in their set. At the end of the Santa's Gifts, all collected coin wins from the Santa's Gifts are multiplied by the final multiplier amount. The maximum possible multiplier is 4.
  • When a player clicks on an end of stage item they end the current stage and move onto the next one. If the player clicks on the end of stage item while in stage 3 the Santa's Gifts ends.
