The Nice List Slots

With the level of excellence that you've come to expect, Real Time Gaming has delivered a champion of a slot for the holiday season with this 5 reel, 1024 payline The Nice List Pokey. This is a decidedly Christmas template, as can be seen by the delectable symbols of cookies and gifts on the reels, as well as the varied muted colors indicative of the final holiday of the year. The graphics are very involved without being overwhelming, so that you can focus on the game itself and spin to win in the real money version. The screen exudes a feeling of warmth, too, which is an unmistakably pleasant atmosphere during this cold season.

If you're wondering why The Nice List Slots has so many paylines, it's because it's an All Ways Pay slot with 243 ways to win, which then translates to 1024 payline with the 5 x 3 grid set-up. The winning combinations proceed in the left to right direction, except when scatter icons are involved; then, it becomes the All Ways Pay game we mentioned earlier. There are multiple coin denominations and wagering options as a result of being such an expansive game, and the amount you bet determines how much you win when the reels fill up with the right symbols and symbol combinations - we'll explore all of this later. Now, on to the symbols. The Wild icon is represented by Santa Claus, himself, and he has the elusive grouped attribute that strongly helps determine multi-line wins for the lucky online casino gamer. If you understand all the percentages associated with virtual casino slots, then you'll know that The Nice List has a higher than average hit rate for line wins, which is of course a great attribute according to the real money player. The other symbols include a batch of chocolate chip cookies, lit candles, elves, Mrs. Santa Claus, the Nice List for good kids deserving of presents this year, and more. The lower-paying symbols are, as usual, the poker card suits from the famous table game.

The Substitute Santa Claus symbol can show up on the second, third, fourth and fifth reels in grouped configuration. As is par for the course in most video slots, it can replace almost every other symbol to help the player complete a winning combination. The sole symbol that the substitute Santa cannot replace is the Scattered The Nice List book, which harbors the names of all the kids in the world who've been civil to their fellow man this year. For five scatter symbols on the reels, you win 500 coins - which is considerably higher than in most slots, since scatters don't usually pay out a lot because of their other fantastic attributes (delivery of free games, etc). For four of a kind of the scattered Nice List symbol, you win 10 coins (now that's more like it!), for three of a kind you win 2 coins, and for two of a kind, you get a single coin payout.

Let us delve into the high paying symbols in The Nice List Slots from RTG. With this in mind, consider Mrs. Santa Claus herself; for five of a kind on the reels, you win 300 coins - which is not bad for a second-in-command. For four Mrs. Santa Claus symbols on the reels you win 100 coins, for three Mrs. Santa Claus icons on the gameboard you win 50 coins, and for two of a kind you win just five coins. Next we have an attractive female elf-human hybrid (at least that's what appears to be in the graphic). For five of a kind you win 250 coins, for four of a kind of her you win 50 coins, for three of a kind you get 25 coins, and for two Elven human symbols putting up Christmas ornaments on the Christmas tree symbol, you win five coins.

The next symbol is actually a batch of symbols - two to be exact. These consist of the chocolate chip cookies and milk that kids all around the world leave out for Santa Claus, as well as the stockings above a well lit fireplace symbols. For five of a kind you win 125 coins for either symbol on the reels. For four of a kind you win 30 coins, and for three of a kind you get 10 coins.

Finally, we have the poker card symbols from the eponymous table game. Starting things off with the first batch of two, there's the Ace in the King card jackets. For five of a kind of either you win 100 coins, for four of a kind you win 15 coins, and for three of a kind you get five coins. Next up we have the Queen and the Joker poker card symbols and the second batch of two. For five of a kind either one is worth 80 coins, for four of a kind you get 12 coins for the symbol combinations, and for three of a kind you can win five coins. The final batch of low paying symbols includes the 10 and the 9 card jackets. For five of a kind you win 75 coins, for four of a kind you get 10 coins, and for three of a kind you win three coins.

Although The Nice List Slots does not have a progressive random jackpot embedded inside the game, there are some bonus features that you don't want to miss. Some of these include the possibility of receiving free spins after every single spin; the allotments maxes out at 10 free games per turn and as well as a 10 X multiplier per round.
