Christmas Morning Slot Review

You wake up Christmas morning and what do you see? A five-reel video slot where the 10 paylines can be left-to-right, right-to-left or somewhere in the middle? Mysterious presents that unwrap to reveal a regular paying symbol? A free spins round? You’ll find all of that and more in Red Tiger’s Christmas Morning slot.

The Magic of Christmas Day

One good thing about casinos is you can play Christmas slots all year round - there’s no waiting for December. If you’re someone who loves the magic and anticipation, then Red Tiger has recreated some of that feeling. On the right is the window letting in some frosty light; on the left is the Christmas tree with a glimpse of the fireplace and the wreath hanging above it. 

There are a few Christmas lights, though soft orange rather than brightly coloured, plus a couple of candles and a just visible glow in the fire, so it’s not as cosy as some similarly themed slots. It must be a representation of when you very first come downstairs on Christmas morning before dawn and when the festivities haven’t really begun.

Let the Children Play

Adults can enjoy Christmas, but this is definitely a season that is traditionally more appreciated by the children. This Christmas morning is definitely for them, because the presents you’re unwrapping are toys. Not just any toys either but handcrafted classics, including a snow globe, teddy bear, wooden reindeer and shiny, brightly painted train. This is a traditional Christmas, before modern commercialisation started eroding the spirit.

Christmas Morning RTP and Variance

The RTP of the Christmas Morning slot is 96%. The variance is high.

How to Play Christmas Morning

Remember, don’t wake up until after Santa’s been.

1. Instructions appear as part of the loading process, with even more detail than in our Christmas Morning slot review, so make sure you read them.
2. You should also familiarise yourself with all responsible gaming features both in your casino and your specific slot. This could include adding limits, a timeout or self-exclusion.
3. Only when you’re sure you can play safely should you adjust your bet. Click the current display and scroll through the available wagers.
4. Other settings, like sound and full screen, are in the top corner.
5. Now all that’s left is to try and find winning symbols, but the random nature of slots means it won’t be easy. You can hit spin, but the result is all down to chance.
6. Between spins, review your budget and settings to decide whether to keep playing. It won’t stay fun if you lose control.
7. Know when to walk away.

How to Win at Christmas Morning

The 5x3 layout of Christmas Morning is fairly standard among modern slots, unless they’re something like Reel King Megaways, but there’s something unusual here. Paylines traditionally require you to match identical symbols from left to right. In Christmas Morning, they only have to be adjacent. Any row of three symbols, whether starting on the left, the right or floating in the middle, can award a payout, and more matching symbols mean more payout potential.

Top Wins

• Four traditional card suits - clubs, diamonds, hearts and spades - line the bottom of the paytable. Each of them looks like a Christmas decoration ready to hang on the tree.
• Of these, the club has the smallest win multiplier. A maximum five matches will earn you 1.2x your bet.
• Then there’s the star, another tree decoration, followed by the toys. The top win multiplier belongs to the train, with a total win up to 30x your wager.
• You need to find a mystery symbol or the scatter symbol if you want to trigger the Christmas Morning bonus features.
• Overall the max win available is x10,500.

Christmas Morning Bonuses 

Two bonus features are used to enhance the gameplay of the Christmas Morning slot. You can find mystery symbols in the base game, or you can find the scatter symbol that leads you to the free spins bonus round.

Mystery Symbol

These even look like presents, making them the most thematically appropriate way to conceal the regular symbol behind them. The mystery symbols are random in when they appear or which symbol they unveil, but all mystery symbols on the reels at the same time will turn into the same symbol when they’re opened. You can find mystery symbols in the base game and free spins.

Free Spins

• 3 scatters = 12 free spins.
• 4 scatters = 15 free spins.
• 5 scatters = 18 free spins.

During free spins, scatters are removed from the reels, so it’s not possible to retrigger. Any mystery present symbols in the free spins round will be added to the progress meter, and when that’s full the current lowest-paying symbol (starting with the club) will be removed from the reels and replaced with more presents.

Christmas Morning Review - Summary 

Christmas-themed slots are always going to be divisive, because some people love this time of year and others can’t stand it. Other Red Tiger slots are available. Christmas Morning has the sort of imagery you’d expect in this kind of game, and it has rather a classic feel despite the highly detailed 3D graphics and modern design. Also modern are the features. Free spins normally grab all of the attention, but making the mystery symbols presents to be opened is a clever way to incorporate the theme.
