Special Features & Slot Mechanics
What is the max win in the slot 3 Gifts of Xmas?
You can win up to 10,000x the bet.
What features are available in the slot 3 Gifts of Xmas?
The features are Wild Symbol, Gift Symbol, Instant Prize Symbols, Collect Symbols, Free Spins, and Feature Buy.
Wild Symbol
The Wild Symbol substitutes for all symbols except Gifts and Collect Symbols.
Gift Symbol
Gift Symbols may land on any reel. They are automatically collected on top of the reels where the blue Sync, the green Multi, and the red Extra gifts stand. They represent different versions of the Free Spins. A gift that lands can randomly trigger 8 Free Spins.
The size of the gifts is just cosmetic and has no impact on the actual odds of triggering the bonus game.
Instant Prize Symbols
Instant Prize Symbols appear on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5. They are worth between 0.5x and 5,000x the bet.
Collect Symbols
Collect Symbols land only on reels 1 and 6. When one appears, it instantly collects all visible Instant Prizes.
Free Spins
Free Spins can trigger randomly as long as one Gift Symbol hits the reels. The feature starts with 8 spins, and all Instant Prize Symbols are stored in a Bonus Pot. After the 8 spins finish, a Bonus Spin begins with a 4x4 Mega Instant Prize in the middle of the grid. If a Collect Symbol lands on reel 1 or 6, the entire Bonus Pot is awarded. The Bonus Pot always starts at 3x the total bet.
The different gifts give you certain perks:
Red Gift: Gives 8 additional Free Spins.
Green Gift: Adds a x3 multiplier to all wins and Instant Prizes.
Blue Gift: Activates Sync Reels, where reels 2–5 may sync and land identical symbols. Syncing can lead to 2x2, 3x3, or 4x4 Mega Instant Prize symbols.
Feature Buy
There are four Feature Buy options:
Single Gift Bonus Buy costs 50x the bet and grants one random enhancement.
Double Gift Bonus Buy costs 100x and grants two enhancements.
Triple Gift Bonus Buy costs 250x and activates all enhancements.
Random Gift Bonus Buy costs 80x and grants a random number of enhancements.
You can also purchase the Hot Bet, which will increase your bet by 10% and increase the odds of triggering Free Spins.
Final Thoughts on 3 Gifts of Xmas
Slots with Christmas themes can be a bit hit or miss, but this one manages to balance the seasonal charm with genuinely engaging gameplay. When we play 3 Gifts of Xmas, we find ourselves getting attached to the Gifts more than expected. However, a downside is that you will never know if the Free Spins will trigger or not when a Gift Symbol appears. Some players still prefer having Scatter Symbols that guarantee to trigger the bonus game if a certain number of symbols land.
The Instant Prize Symbols keep things lively, and the Collect Symbols can turn a modest spin into something far more exciting. There’s also something wonderfully chaotic about watching a Bonus Pot grow while hoping for that final Collect Symbol to land. The game has several features that can snowball into bigger rewards.
The Feature Buy options also add a layer of choice that feels fair, especially for risk-willing players. The atmosphere is cosy, the pacing is strong, and the game manages to feel festive without going overboard. Think of it as Christmas music played at a reasonable volume, not the chaotic mall-in-December variety.
For other Christmas-themed games, have a look at Yggdrasil’s Christmas Plaza DoubleMax or Octoplay’s Christmas Link Express: Hold & Win.
3 Gifts of Xmas from Gaming Corps brings together Gifts, Collect Symbols, and a clever Bonus Pot system to create a holiday slot that stays entertaining well beyond December.
