Xmas Spark

Xmas Spark is a festive online slot from Pragmatic Play that transports players to Santa's bustling workshop at the North Pole. The game takes place on a 6×5 grid with a scatter pays mechanic, meaning wins are formed by landing 8 or more matching symbols anywhere in view.

The colorful visuals depict a classic Christmas scene, with symbols including elves hard at work, Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer, and jolly old Saint Nick himself. The high-paying symbols are complemented by lower-value card suit icons.

One of the key features in Xmas Spark is the Tumble mechanic. After any winning combination, the successful symbols are removed from the reels, allowing new ones to cascade down and potentially form additional wins. This process continues until no further wins are achieved.

To the right of the main game grid is the Multiplier Reel, which comes into play after each tumble. This reel contains multiplier values ranging from 1x to an impressive 500x. The multiplier displayed in the bottom position is applied to any wins on that spin. As the tumbles continue, the multipliers also shift down, providing a new multiplier for each subsequent win.

Landing 4, 5, or 6 scatter symbols (represented by Christmas trees) awards 10, 12, or 14 free spins, respectively. During the bonus round, the minimum multiplier on the Multiplier Reel increases to 2x, enhancing the potential for big wins. Moreover, landing additional scatters during the feature grants extra free spins.

For those eager to trigger the free spins, Xmas Spark includes a handy Feature Buy option. For a cost of 100x the current bet, players can bypass the base game and instantly access the bonus round.

With an RTP of 96.08%, high volatility, and a maximum win potential of 10,000x the bet, Xmas Spark offers an exciting and potentially rewarding gaming experience. The game's hit frequency of 34% ensures relatively frequent wins, while the free spins, which occur on average once every 413 spins, provide an added layer of anticipation.
