Ready to travel to the past with the magic golden pocket watch?

Theme and Symbols

The game takes you straight to the snow-filled streets of 19th century London at night, where a 6-reel Megaways grid takes up most of the space.

There you can see a flickering street lamp and a couple of candles burning away that are set atop of the reels.

Inspired by the Dickens' story, you can expect to see its characters on the reels, perfectly accompanying the Christmas atmosphere.

The game boasts excellent graphics, and nicely-designed symbols such as Scrooge, the three ghosts of Christmas - Past, Present and Future -, Tim and Bob Cratchit, as well as some playing card royals.

The action is perfectly complemented by a Christmassy piece of music that becomes happier and more upbeat during the bonus rounds.

Betting Options and Other Functions

Before you become one of the protagonists in this popular story from 1843, you need to set your bets that range from 0.20 and go up to 100 coins, which makes this arcade game perfect for all types of punters!

The action takes place across 6 reels, with rows varying between 2-8 rows, while since it's a Megaways game, its paylines will vary during the game, with a maximum of 200704 paylines.

Since this is a real Christmas-style machine, you can expect an enormous gift of up to 20000x the stake!

The high-volatile game comes with a slightly above average RTP of 96.48%.

To get a win, you will need to land from two to six same symbols from left to right only, and should that happen, those symbols will disappear making room for new ones.

Speaking of symbols...

...the ghosts of the Past, Present, and Future are the premium symbols, with the ghost from the past paying the most – up to 50x the stake. 

The Wild symbol substitutes for all symbols apart from the Scatters that are represented by Gold Coins.

Special Features

If you have come across Great Rhino Megaways slot from the same developers, then you will know what to expect when it comes to this game's special features, since it's completely a clone.

You should pay attention to golden pocket watch symbols, as landing four of them on the reels will trigger the Free Spins feature that will then give you four options to pick from!

High Volatility, Medium Volatility and Lowest Volatility with 5 free spins with an x10 starting multiplier, 10 free spins with an x5 starting multiplier and 15 free spins with an x1 starting multiplier respectively, as well as...

...a Mystery Choice that will randomly choose 5, 10 or 15 free spins and an x1, x5 or x10 multiplier. 

Plus, with every new scatter that lands on the spin, you will get +4 extra spins, but that's not the best part.

It is the unlimited win multiplier!

But wait, there's more!

The developers at Pragmatic Play also gave you the option to increase your bet to the Ante Bet, which doubles the chance to land the free spins feature, but also...

...you can purchase the feature thanks to the game's Bonus Buy option!

Verdict

There aren’t a lot of traditional Christmas themed slots to offer Megaways yet, but this one is also innovative due to its high volatility.

Though the basis for it is not new, Pragmatic Play slots developers made a great choice to use the pack of features from the Great Whino Megaways title.

Overall, this slot machine delivers solid gameplay with a pretty nice maximum prize of up to 20,000 times the stake!
