What story does Holiday Spirits tell?

The story of Scrooge is brought into the game as is. The ghosts of Christmas past, present and future visit Ebenezer Scrooge, and you travel through time with him, building up rewards along the way. It’s a Christmas title from Play’n GO slots that turns the warm mood of the classic tale into a simple 5-payline structure, which makes it easy to enjoy casually during the season.

What symbols appear?

The three ghosts and Jacob Marley, Scrooge’s old business partner, appear as symbols, and matching 3 of the same symbol on the 5 paylines is a win. The remaining symbols are Christmas items like candy canes, Christmas stockings, mistletoe and snow globes. Scrooge is the wild and substitutes for all symbols to create wins. The symbol set is simple, so it’s easy to read even on your first spin.

What does Ebenezer’s Clock do?

On any spin, Scrooge’s old clock can strike at random. When the clock turns, it picks one multiplier from x2, x3, x4, x5 and x10 and applies it to that spin’s wins. Since the game has only 5 paylines, spins with this multiplier stand out all the more. Not knowing which spin the clock will strike on adds a little anticipation.

How does Ebenezer’s Gift change the multiplier?

Ebenezer is famous for being stingy, but he is quite generous in this feature. Ebenezer’s Gift doubles the multiplier you’ve received. This includes multipliers earned during a winning spin feature, so when the clock multiplier and the gift overlap, your multiplier can jump sharply in a short time. The twist of a miser giving gifts fits the story well.

What should I check first in the demo?

RTP is 94.22% and the max win is 1,600x your bet. There is no official volatility figure, so get a feel for it in the demo. Watch how often Ebenezer’s clock strikes, which multipliers show up most, and whether you actually see moments where the gift feature stacks and doubles a multiplier. Try several short sessions.
