About Santa’s Big Bash Megaways

Santa’s Big Bash Megaways is played on 6 reels with between 64 up to 117,649 winning ways thanks to the Megaways mechanic. It’s available on desktop and mobile devices from 20p up to £100 per spin. Volatility is high with RTP an average 96.04% during the base game and as high as 96.23% during the features.It’s obvious from the title it’s a Christmas-themed slot so expect to see all references to the festive occasion. The graphics are superb with the backdrop set inside a house with a roaring log fire and garlands strung and a huge, decorated Christmas tree sitting to the left of the reels.Talking of the reels, these are bright blue and occupied by equally impressive symbols including low-value royals covered in fairy lights, an elf, a gingerbread man with a chunk missing, Scrooge, Jack Frost, and the big man himself Santa. Santa is worth 500x for 6 in a winning combo.

Gameplay

In terms of features, after the cascading reels there are a few to mention, let’s take a look.After landing a winning combination the symbols involved fall away and are replaced by new symbols helping to create more winning combos.During the cascades, Magic Baubles appear, if three appear together, you take another step on the free spins trail.If Rudolph appears in the base game or the free spins, he comes with multiple awards. During the base game, you can get 3 wilds, 3 extra positions on the free spins trail, or a 5x multiplier.If Rudolph appears in the free spins feature, up to 4 wilds could be awarded, along with up to 4 extra spins or a 3x multiplier.Landing a set number of the Magic Bauble symbols triggers the free spins feature. Depending on the number of triggering symbols determines the number of free spins you’ll receive. The maximum of 13 baubles rewards you with 12 free spins, a 3x multiplier, and a higher chance of landing Rudolph.A global multiplier is active during the free spins feature, it applies to all wins and increases by 1x after each cascade. If a reel reaches 7 symbols high, it looks in place until the feature ends and an additional spin is awarded. The more cascades the more free spins you’ll receive.

Verdict

Santa’s Big Bash Megaways is one of many 2021 festive slots about to hit our screens. It’s an incredibly immersive slot with superb graphics and features which can be extremely lucrative and a top prize of 25,000x the total bet.
