Christmas Tree

Appropriately released in December 2020, the Christmas Tree online slot game from Yggdrasil is a festive delight all year round. This game uses the exciting Cluster Pays mechanic across 7 reels and is packed with additional bonus features.

The Christmas Tree slot’s RTP stands just above average at 96.4%, while the volatility is medium. Much of the excitement comes from the Cluster Pays here, with an astonishing £1,000,000 jackpot up for grabs when you bet the max stake of £40 per spin. Players can spin from as little as £0.40, ideal for new players.

Theme and Graphics

Yggdrasil has been producing top slot games since its inception in 2013, and Christmas Tree is undoubtedly one of the best designs yet. The Christmas Tree graphics are impressive right from the off, before the game even loads. But then, when the Christmas Tree-shaped reels appear, it’s clear we are playing a unique game.

The festive soundtrack and snowy background put us straight in the mood for this game. Our smiley snowman friend sits to the left of the reels and plays a role in the bonuses. The symbols consist of different Christmas Tree decorations such as baubles and bells. The snow globe is the Wild symbol, while the angel is the highest-paying regular symbol.

Wizard Slots has various Christmas-themed slots you can play and choose from, including:

• Santa Stacked Free Spins
• Christmas Carol Megaways
• Aloha Christmas Slots
• Christmas Eve Online Slot
• I Love Christmas Slot Game

How to Play the Christmas Tree Slot Game

If you haven’t played a Cluster Pays game before, it is worth taking a minute to check out how it all works. It’s pretty easy to get to grips with, as essentially, we are looking to form ‘clusters’ of matching symbols rather than lines. Nevertheless, as this game is in the shape of a Christmas tree,

Before you start landing those wins, click ‘Play Now’ and follow these steps to get started:

• Once you're signed in, and the game has loaded, the 7 reels will appear, formatted in the shape of a Christmas tree.
• Choose the size of your bet or use the max bet option if you’re feeling adventurous.
• Click the spin button or use the autospin feature.
• A cluster is formed by matching 5 identical symbols by connected edges.
• The snow globe Wild symbol can help form winning cluster combinations by substituting for other symbols.

There are plenty of additional bonus features to add an extra touch of sparkle to the gameplay, but first be sure to check out the Christmas Tree stats below to see if the slot is a good fit for you.

Slot Game Data

Here we will turn our attention away from the festive cheer and towards the stats for a moment, although there is still plenty to cheer about. Namely, the stunning £1,000,000 jackpot is enough to get any slots fan listening. You can win the jackpot by combining the bonus features, which we will come onto next.

For players betting smaller, the medium volatility and 96.4% RTP makes for a steady game. Most important, however, is the 31.6% hit frequency, which means you will land a win almost one in every three spins on average.

Christmas Tree Free Spins and Bonus Features

As it’s Christmas, this game was always going to fill our stockings up with enticing bonus features. Indeed, there are plenty to consider when considering how to potentially land the more significant wins.

The cascading feature is the main attraction; each time you land a win, winning clusters disappear, and new symbols replace them. These new symbols could immediately land a new win without you having to pay for a new spin. So, what else can this lead to?

• Miracle – Landing 3 cascades in a row will unlock one of the following:
  • 5 Free Spins with a progressive multiplier
  • Additional win up to 1000x
  • Multiplier to the current win
• Free Spins – Taking a closer look at that Free Spins feature, the exciting part is an additional Snowman Feature active on each spin. Our snowman friend throws snowballs at regular symbols and turns them Wild. What’s more, a multiplier increases by 1 every time you land a cascading win.
• When the clusters wins end, the Blizzard feature allows 3 to 9 mystery symbols to join the fray and potentially land another win.

With so many interlinking bonuses in play at once, it’s no surprise we have a giant Christmas Tree jackpot up for grabs.
