The probability of issuing a hit in the game is 47.50%, with the maximum payout of 100,000 coins in the usual spins.

Theme & Design

The game takes place in the legendary Prancing Pony Inn, written about in JRR Tolkien’s book.

So, prepare for a trip to the well-known Lord of the Rings tavern, where you can feel the real medieval Christmas spirit.

This time and the atmosphere are different, though, as there is no evil presence lurking, but rather festive Christmas spirit surrounds the place.

Visually, this game has colours in abundance both on the reels and behind them.

In addition to the unique colourful symbols, you will find a detailed view of a tavern in the background.

The Norse-themed Inn is candlelit, with a prominent Christmas tree standing next to the high rise of reels...

...which are suitably adorned for the season.

Irish tunes play in the background, while the reels prepare to roll some winners.

The New Year adventures of Elves and Gnomes of this new version of a familiar title from Pariplay, take place on a non-standard playing field.
