Jingle Balls online slot review
It’s that time of year for jingle balls. We love it when Nolimit City brings out a new online slot game. Because as entertaining as Egyptian, Greek and Wild West-themed slots are, this developer always brings something new and original to the table. Where else can you play slots about cannibals, zombies, serial killers and underground cage fighting, for example? Nolimit City, that’s where! And even though their new slot, Jingle Balls, has a traditional Christmas theme. It still keeps the same dark, gritty theme as other slots in the Nolimit City portfolio, and it throws in the Grinch for good measure. Because what’s Christmas cheer without someone to sneer at it, right?
As far as symbols go, you’ll still be getting a definite Christmas feel with Santa, gifts, jungle balls, baubles and similarly-themed icons. But be prepared for the Grinch as well, along with a colour scheme that’s a lot more subdued than the usual festive green and red.
Jingle Balls all the way
It’s not just the symbols that provide visual interest, it’s the game area too, with space for 3-3-4-4-5-5 symbols. And the ability to expand and offer up to 614,656 ways to win. Merry Christmas to you! But that’s not the only gift on offer. Nolimit City also has an impressive 12,500x top jackpot up for grabs. Going hand-in-hand with a 96.10% RTP. Add to that extra features like scatters, wilds, nudges, split symbols, spirit spins and more, and you’ll see it’s shaping up to be a rewarding festive season indeed at Jingle Balls.
To get the Jingle Balls rolling, all it takes is a $0.20 wager – risk-averse enough for every size of bankroll. But if you feel like you want to invest a bit more, you can increase your bet up to the max of $200. Increasing your potential payout at the same time.
While the darker Christmas theme might seem a little unfamiliar to you.
One element you’ll recognize is the wild symbol. In this case, one that acts as a substitute for all regular symbols, completing winning combos whenever it lands. That’s not all – if you happen upon any xSplit Wilds during your round. They’ll split the symbols on either side of them, adding a multiplier into the mix.
There’s more where those wilds came from. Like xNudge Wilds, to be exact. These modifiers have the ability to land on the middle two reels, nudging and boosting their multipliers by 1x until they’ve completely taken over the reel they landed on Jingle Balls.
Last but not least, look out for xWays.
Symbols on the reels that’ll transform into 2-3 symbols, landing on the first 2 reels in the base game, and the last 2 reels in free spins.
Nolimit City has one more surprise in store for you, this time in the form of spirit spins. Here you’ll be given a character to play as, a number of free spins, and a multiplier too. These can also be upgraded depending on your bankroll and how you rate your chances of winning – you’ll have to assess this at the time, and see just how much you can afford to invest in your gaming.
Even if you have to keep a tight budget though, don’t worry. There are plenty of thrills and spills for every type of player and every type of bankroll. So let’s Jingle Balls all the way!
