Jingle Bells Bonanza bonus features

There are plenty of bonus features for players to enjoy in Jingle Bells Bonanza:

Jingle Bell frames

The bell wild symbol can land on the three middle reels in the game; when it lands, it makes a frame. If a scatter present symbol lands, all the frame symbols become wild symbols with a win multiplier amount attached, increasing by 1x every time. Each time one of these bells lands, it also increases the cash drop progress by one point.

Cash drop bonus

The cash drop bonus begins when two present scatter symbols land on the first and last reels. This will trigger three free spins during which only cash drop symbols or blanks land on the reels. These cash drop symbols also have win multipliers attached worth from 1x to 100x the bet amount.

Cash drop progress bonus

Landing the bell wild symbol moves the cash drop progress bar along each time. When it reaches certain points, up to four prizes can be won:

• Expand - two extra rows are added to the reels


• Multiplier - the bonus amount is doubled


• Spin - four spins are awarded


• Mystery - this releases the golden cash drop bonus

The golden cash drop bonus adds a win multiplier of between 3x and 20x. It also adds arrow symbols to the game, which increase the prizes that land on the reels.

Jingle Bells Bonanza review - summary

Jingle Bells Bonanza is a fun-filled festive NetEnt slots game with a unique viewpoint, colourful graphics, and a Christmassy atmosphere.

The game has some good bonus features, but the cash drop feature has some quite confusing rules and does not amount to much. There is also a lack of free spins in the game to excite players. Also, as with all Christmas-themed slots, Jingle Bells Bonanza will always feel a bit out of place outside the festive season.

With a top prize of 4,186x the bet, the Jingle Bells Bonanza slots game will be one for you to try if you like to feel festive all year round.
