Greentube launches new seasonal slot A Christmas Full of Wilds with various features and mechanics

Online gaming content provider Greentube, Novomatic's digital entertainment arm, is marking the start of the festive season with the release of its latest slot, titled A Christmas Full of Wilds.

The new title is a 5-reel, 30 payline cascading reels slot - which pays from left to right and right to left - that sees players win sacks of cash by way of several features and mechanics including special wilds, Trail & Wins and Lock & Spin.

The provider explains that each winning cascade will light a trail position atop the reels. At the end of each trail is a toy that awards a modifier. If all positions are lit, a prize will be awarded and the modifier will kick in.

Wild Gun sees Santa shoot at the reels, causing a number of wilds to appear. Wild Drone sees Santa fly a drone that adds wilds to the reels whilst it is still spinning. Wild Phone sees Santa spin symbols through a phone before stopping on one with the symbols matching Santa's replaced with wilds. The final modifier is Wild Camera, which can see "colossal wilds" sized either 2x2, 3x3, or 4x4 land.

Should players complete a trail with the Lock & Spin toy in view, it will trigger the Lock & Spin feature. During this, each position on the grid is an individual reel. The bonus starts with three spins and is reset whenever a blue, green, or red bauble worth between x0.5 and x9 symbol lands in view.

At the end of the Lock & Spin bonus, all bauble wins are added together and paid out to the player. If a full grid is achieved, an additional 1,000x their total bet is awarded to the player.

Bernd Baumert, Director of Games Production and Operations at Greentube, said: "The release of A Christmas Full of Wilds marks the most wonderful time of the year, and what a way to do so. This feature-filled slot is Greentube's gift to slot enthusiasts around the world and we hope they enjoy immersing themselves in the headline features such as Trail & Wins and Lock & Spin."
