Game Features Explained

Wild Symbol

  • The Santa Symbol represents the Wild Symbol, and it substitutes for all symbols.

  • The Wild Symbol appears only as part of the Wild Santa and Lucky Santa features.

  • The Wild Symbol can connect to form multiple winning combinations with different symbols.

Tumble Feature

  • The Tumble Feature means that after every spin, winning combinations are paid, and all winning symbols disappear.

  • The remaining symbols fall to the bottom of the screen, and the empty positions are replaced with new symbols coming from above.

  • Tumbling will continue until no more winning combinations or spin features appear as a result of a tumble.

  • All wins are added to the player's balance after all of the tumbles and spin features resulting from a base spin have been played.

Spin Feature

In the base game, at every spin, 5 special colored markings, one of each type, appear behind symbols in random positions. Whenever a win happens on top of a marked spot, it triggers a special feature, depending on the color of the mark.

The Five Special Colors

  • Blue – Refresh: Clears the board (except Wilds) and brings new symbols.

  • Purple – Wild Santa: Turns all copies of one random symbol into Wilds.

  • Yellow – Blocks: Adds several 2×2 blocks of the same symbol.

  • Red – Supersize: Adds a big block (3×3, 4×4, or 5×5) of one symbol.

  • Green – Lucky Santa: Adds 5–15 random Wilds to the grid.

Midnight Riches Progressive Feature

Every winning symbol collected fills the Midnight Riches meter. Collect 140 symbols in one spin to trigger the Midnight Riches Feature, which has 5 levels. Each level guarantees all spin features will play once and has the following multipliers:

  • Level 1: 3× Multiplier

  • Level 2: 6× Multiplier (Collect 116 symbols)

  • Level 3: 9× Multiplier (Collect 120 symbols)

  • Level 4: 12× Multiplier (Collect 124 symbols)

  • Level 5: 15× Multiplier (Collect 132 symbols)

The feature ends if you don't collect enough symbols to advance or after reaching Level 5.

Buy Midnight Riches

The Midnight Riches Feature can be instantly triggered from the base game by buying it for 100x the current total bet. The bought Feature will start after all tumbles and spin features of the base game spin that triggered it end. To advance through the levels in a bought Midnight Riches round, collect winning symbols as follows:

  • Level 2: 6× Multiplier (Collect 116 symbols)

  • Level 3: 9× Multiplier (Collect 120 symbols)
