Winter Wonders Slots

All the classic winter wonderland icons are present in this engaging slot game. If you're ready to wrap up warm and play an entertaining game, this might well offer everything you are looking for.

Winter Wonders sets the tone right from the title. But what else might you find if you dare to go deeper into this game? Get that big coat on and let's explore in the snow…

Which developer created this game?

You can thank the hard-working team (as always) at Rival Gaming for this one.

Should you try the demo first?

We think so - it's always the easiest way to work out whether a game supplies everything you would hope for whenever you play. Rival has given us a practice version here, identical to the normal version except it doesn't cost a dime to play. Of course, you cannot get any real prizes either. One thing you can get is knowledge - and plenty of it.

A Christmas-themed game to enjoy

You can almost smell the mince pies and cinnamon, right? Expect all the trappings of the festive season to crop up in this game.

A suitably wintry design

The winter-based design looks great, with snowmen and piles of snow at the top of the reels. There isn't much else involved in the background except for a chilly-looking sky. That said, you can also expect to see baubles, Christmas trees, gifts, and candy canes among the delights appearing over the reels.

Speaking of reels… how do you play the Winter Wonders slot?

There are five reels in this slot game, each showing three symbols. You won't see any progressive jackpots here, but there are lots of prizes within the paytable.

Santa himself is the wild, as he so often is in these games. He is standing behind a sign that says WILD, so it is a simple one to spot. He carries a gift with him too - a 2x multiplier for all wild prizes.

The game also includes a scatter symbol, and this is Santa's sleigh. It's empty, but it might still bring you some joy whenever it appears. We'll move onto that in a while. This is the only symbol the wild won't substitute for.

How many paylines can you play on?

There are 15 lines in this game, so it is quite a good game to check out if you want to keep your wagers as low as you can. You don't need to play them all, but we recommend you do if you can.

Place your festive bets

Rival always supplies a good range of coin values. You can view this as a penny slot, covering all the lines for 15 cents per spin. We also know that the largest wager covering everything is $75, so most players should be pleased with this game.

Paytable details

This is one of the simpler paytables we have seen, although it explains everything well and shows you everything you need to know before you play. There are no playing card symbols here either, thankfully - you can just look out for the festive symbols as you play.

What about a festive bonus?

It doesn't appear this slot has one of those.

Free spins might appear though

And it is Santa's sleigh that can guide you towards those. You need to find three or more sleigh icons in a single game to receive 10 free spins. You can retrigger these with more sleighs. You'll always get a 3x multiplier on all prizes you receive during those spins.

Do we know the value of the RTP?

Not for certain, although many sites have ranked this Rival slot game at around the 95% mark. We believe this is around the right mark, although Rival hasn't confirmed it.

Our rating for Winter Wonders

You can see there is nothing too complex or different about this festive slot game from Rival Gaming. However, it contains everything we like to see in a slot based around the Christmas holiday. So, we think it deserves 8/10 for sure.

How much could you receive in prizes?

The biggest prize on the paytable is 5,000x your bet for five wilds appearing on a paid line. However, if you manage to get some prizes during the free spins, you can certainly expect some bigger payouts, as there is a 3x multiplier in action there.

Play just for some festive action

All the trappings of Christmas are here, so there is enough entertainment in this game to warrant a few spins without paying for it.

Play for real when you spot the game at a Rival casino

There are lots of casinos online today that have the full Rival Gaming collection of slots. You'll certainly find this one among them.

Mobile access is good too

This gives you another way to play, so you can see if you fancy some festive slot game play on Android or iOS instead if you wish.
