Theme and Basics
You've probably heard of Elf on the Shelf, or maybe you've seen the classic Will Ferrell Christmas movie Elf. This festive Christmas slot centers around darling Christmas elves, and truly has a personality of its own. As you play the game, soft piano music plays. Of all the slot games I've played, this might have one of the best soundtracks I've heard. The piano notes have a timber to them that almost sounds like bells, and it creates an intimate and emotional atmosphere. There are two elves in this game. There is a bearded elf in a green suit, and a female elf in a red suit. Both of them sit atop shelves on the left and the right side of the game grid. The game is played in a unique 5x5 format. There are five lanterns located below each character, and these lanterns relate to the respins bonus feature. The reel itself is framed with gold etchings and inside of the golden frame lies several icy panels. This game was developed by Yggdrasil Gaming, and the bottom of the reels displays a plethora of well wrapped presents There are also Christmas wreaths and other small details used to deck the halls of this game. You can see snowflakes falling gently behind the reels. Essentially, this game looks like it's almost supposed to take place on a window with a lot of panels.
There are a plethora of symbols on this game board. There are playing card symbols, which are the low paying symbols. There are animal symbols like reindeer, polar bears, white rabbits and foxes. All of these animals are bundled up and ready for winter. The betting range is 0.10 per spin to 150.00 per spin. The RTP for this game is 96.2%. The top paying symbols are the polar bear and the reindeer, followed by the rabbit and the fox.
Special Features
Carol of the Elves slot machine has a fantastic respins feature. Every symbol in the win will shoot a magic start at one of the twelve frosted blocker sections. These blocks will thaw out and reveal new symbol positions. If you land a win during the respins, the same thing will corer and you can remove all twelve blockers fairly quickly. This is what expands your pay lines to 3,125 ways to win, and also activates the Lantern Collection feature. The green elf will award you a 2x multiplier on any respin, and if during the respins you win five symbols, the lanterns will light up below the elves. The green elf will now deliver a 3x multiplier instead, while the red elf awards another spin. Every extra life you earn means you can have a losing respin of this slot without the feature ending, so they can be very helpful. For every five winning symbols you score, the multiplier will increase by 1x and award an extra life. The respins can continue an unlimited number of times, basically unless you lose enough times you run out of lives. Then the reels will revert back to their original format.
