Million Christmas Slot Review
Million Christmas is a new video slot from Red Rake Gaming that was released on December 15, 2022. It is another festive slot that is available, this one with evocative music and a subject related to the holiday season. The holiday of Christmas serves as the inspiration for this one. This season serves as the source of inspiration for all of the emblems and decorations. The reel is located in the center of a room that has a fireplace, presents, fairy lights, and other decorations associated with the holidays. The slot machine's visuals and animations are of a decent quality, which contributes nicely to the overall experience of playing the game. The arrangement of the symbols gives an overall impression of exquisite sophistication to the look of the reel, but we find that it makes the game a little bit too difficult to follow. Read our review to find out whether this slot will be able to stand out among its competitors.

Million Christmas Bonus Features
Avalanche Feature
At the end of each spin, the winning symbols vanish, which is followed by a respin in which the new slots are filled with other symbols. The preceding steps are continued until none of the new winning combinations are made.
Million Christmas Mini-game
You need to gather a sufficient number of the Santa Claus symbols, which are blank symbols that do not pay, before you can launch this mini-game. You may monitor the counter for these symbols on the left side of the reel. When you trigger this feature, you will be granted 3 respins in the mini-game. Each symbol that drops off the wheel will become a permanent part of the reel. When additional symbols land on the reels and stay there, the amount of respins automatically increases to 3. The mini-game has its own unique special symbols, such as the Heart, which grants an additional respin, the Key, which enables the player to access an additional three rows, the Green Arrow, which boosts the value of the symbols on a specific reel, and the Multiplier, which multiplies the amount that the player has won.
Free Spins
The Free Spins bonus feature is triggered if a normal spin results in the triggering of 5 or more linked re-spins. Each Bonus symbol counts as a re-spin when calculating Free Spins. The total number of linked re-spins that were triggered by the spin that led to this feature is used as a factor in determining the initial amount of free spins that are awarded to the player. The number of free spins starts out at 8, and it may go up to a maximum of 16 free spins. You will get an extra 4 free spins at the conclusion of the Free Spins Bonus round if the total win was less than 10 times the amount of the wager that was required to start the feature. Additional spins will continue to be granted until the total win from the feature surpasses the aforementioned minimum of 10x the size of the initial wager.
Our Experience Playing Milion Christmas
When we first began playing the game, we were presented with a massive reelset that, at first glance, appeared to be incomprehensible to us, and it had beautifully produced and calming Christmas music. The Christmas theme is arguably one of the most popular themes in video slots, and it will be quite tough for a slot machine with this theme to differentiate itself from the other games on the market. The animation and sound effects were okay, but nothing too special. The next thing that struck us about this slot machine was how distinctively it was designed, but we were still curious about how effectively it paid out. To test this we resorted to our tried-and-tested of depositing 200 Euros, setting the bet to 1 Euro, and giving it around 300 spins or so. During the first hundred spins we could figure out how the paylines worked and it made us a little bit confused. It had a relatively low payout percentage, with the largest win being somewhere around 15 euros during our first run. Because of that, we ended up losing somewhere about 40 Euros, which was a pretty unfortunate turn of events taking into consideration the fact that this slot game has a medium-to-high level of volatility. Because 300 spins is not even close to being enough to start the minigame, we had absolutely no hope of doing so. The next one hundred spins were almost exactly identical to the first one and again we lost around 40 Euros. The final one hundred were a little bit better, but still made us lose money, 25 Euros to be exact. The fact that not a single free spins bonus round was activated while playing the slot machine for a total of three hundred spins is illustrative of how "profitable" it could be. Overall, we lost around 105 Euros and left the game pretty disappointed with how things turned out for us.
Million Christmas Verdict
There are many great Christmas-themed slots out there, and this is not one of them. 1,000,000 paylines is nothing but a gimmick that lures you to lose all of your money. All of those blank Santa Clause symbols stand in the way of other symbols to make winning combinations. The slot does not provide substantial payouts during the main game, and to trigger the Mini-Game and Free Spins is very difficult. After all has been said and done, we are of the view that this slot will not be a successful one. It is highly advised that you do not play this particular video slot machine.
