9 Gifts Of Christmas Review

‘It’s the time of the season for reeeeskins’, is us “reskinning” the old Zombies classic to keep the mood light as we take on yet another Xmas reskin release. 9 Gifts Of Christmas is, as you might recognize from the title, a 9 Masks Of Fire clone. The only difference is a slightly higher top-tier RTP of 96.34 %, but hey, it’s Christmas after all, isn’t it.

Fans of the original Gameburger smash hit might enjoy this Aurum Signature Studios Xmas version, but then again, there is plenty of competition in the scatter jackpots genre. Not too many Xmas installments though, so those who enjoy the Christmas spirit might be pleased with this one. It comes with scatter prizes up to 2,000x, and up to an x3 multiplier in the bonus round.

9 Gifts Of Christmas Slot Features

The symbols pay from 1 to 37.5 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins, and the yellow Xmas star Wild pays 125x your stake for the same. The wild also steps in for pay symbols to help complete wins, but it cannot substitute for bonus symbols or gift scatters.

The wrapped Xmas box is the Gift Scatter, and you need at least 3 in view to win an instant scatter prize. More precisely, you win 1x, 5x, 15x, 40x, 100x, 500x, or 2,000x your stake when you land 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 gift scatters in view, respectively.

The Santa bonus symbol appears on the 3 middle reels only, and you need 3 in view to get a spin on the Free Spins Wheel. The 3 scatters also pay 1x your stake up front, and the Wheel awards between 10 and 30 free spins with either an x2 or x3 win multiplier (only the 25 and 30 FS segments come with an x3 multiplier attached, to be precise).

The win multiplier does not apply to the instant scatter prizes, but only to regular line wins. Also, the bonus round can be retriggered by landing 3 bonus symbols, and this gives you the same amount of extra spins as you initially got from the wheel.

You get to see a few base game wins here and there, before we trigger the bonus round close to the 1-minute mark. The feature plays out for the remainder of the 2:36-minute highlights video, and you can check it all out yourself by hitting the play button below.

Review Summary

Most developers tend to make a reskin of one of their own slots as their Xmas release, but Aurum Signature Studios has instead decided to clone Gameburger’s smash hit, 9 Masks of Fire. Both studios are under the Microgaming umbrella, and they tend to borrow a lot from each other, but come on.

What you get here is just the same old copycat scatter win game that is a dime a dozen these days. Granted, the top-tier RTP of 96.34 % is a tad higher than what you get in 9 MoF, but this release comes with adjustable RTP ranges. Anyway, it’s a highly seasonal release, so it’s understandable, and some new players might discover it without knowing anything about the original.

Pros

• Instant scatter jackpots up to 2,000x
• FS w/ x2 or x3 win multiplier
• Max win is also 2,000x your stake

Cons

• Reskin of 9 Masks of Fire
• Customizable RTP ranges

If you appreciate 9 Gifts Of Christmas Slot you should also try:

9 Masks Of Fire - is Gameburger’s original smash hit, and it has remained a high ranking slot for more than 3 years now. This is a feat in and of itself, given all the copycat releases, many of which come with superior math models, max wins, and more features.

9 Bass - is an Epic Strike release from Oros Gaming, and it comes with instant scatter prizes up to 2,000x your stake. You get an x2 or x3 win multiplier in the bonus round, and the overall potential is also 2,000x your stake. Sounds familiar. You guessed it, this is another 9 Masks of Fire reskin, with a fishing theme.

9 Blazing Diamonds Wowpot - is another instant scatter jackpot installment, and this SpinPlay release comes with scatter prizes up to 2,500x your stake. The scatter jackpots can increase up to 10,000x your stake in the bonus round, however, and the largest progressive WowPot seeds at £2 million.
