How to play Christmas Carol Megaways

Setting up

Christmas Carol Megaways is a video slot by Pragmatic Play, released in 2020. The game is played on a 6×8 grid. To start, choose a stake within the limits your casino offers and press spin. Each spin is independent, and its outcome is decided by a random number generator.

How wins work

Wins are formed with the Megaways mechanic. The number of symbols on each reel changes every spin, so the number of ways to win is different on every spin. Features listed for this game: Free Spins, Multipliers, Scatter Pays and Cascading Reels. Free Spins: a bonus round of spins that cost nothing, usually triggered by scatters. Multipliers: special symbols or features multiply the win. Scatter Pays: wins count when enough matching symbols land anywhere on the grid, not on lines. Cascading Reels: winning symbols disappear and new ones fall into their place, so a single spin can produce several wins in a row. The paytable inside the game shows what each symbol pays at your current stake.

Bonus round

It awards 23 free spins. Multipliers can reach ×10. Bonus feature: Free Spins.

What to expect

Volatility is rated low. The maximum win is 20,000× the stake. The RTP is 96.50%. RTP is a long-term average over a very large number of spins, not a promise for a single session.
