Naughty or Nice? Slots

There are a lot of Christmas-themed casino games for a reason. After all, there are few things that make people smile more than the thought of Christmas. Do you remember the eligibility requirements for Santa Clause's list? The answer, Santa asks who has been naughty and who has been nice. Referencing this phrase, Naughty or Nice is the first in a wonderful little series by Real Time Gaming. The slot simulator offers 50 pay lines and 5 reels as well as scatter cards, wildcards, and bonus spins.

The Visuals

The playfield looks like it was cast in the middle of a Christmas scene with a decorated tree with Christmas lights on the right and on the left a fireplace topped with Christmas stockings, ivy, and glowing candles. The regular card symbols are cast upon ornaments ready to hang on a Christmas tree along with an angry Mrs. Clause, a surprised-looking Mrs. Clause, a bow of ivy, and a reindeer that suspiciously has a brassiere hanging from his head. Once you get playing, the "balance", "bet" and "win" windows show at the top of the screen as if they'd been coated in frost and snow.

Gameplay

Regardless of whether you have a PC, a Mac, or a compatible handheld device, you can play and get lost in Naughty or Nice. You can also choose whether to play for entertainment or to win money (or both, of course). Boasting Christmas-time graphics and excellent payouts, Naughty or Nice is a fun game with beautiful women as symbols. Not to mention, the game awards players a 10,000-coin jackpot. In addition to the girls, the symbols also include a wreath with the naughty or nice icon, Christmas presents, a moose, Santa, and Mrs. Clause. The highest-paying symbol is Santa Clause, which makes sense because he also happens to be the one surrounded by beautiful women.

Winning Strategies

Players can bet anywhere between $.50 to $50. After clicking "Spin", the game will then start. Players can choose an auto-play feature if they do not want to manually play. With this element, predetermined playing options like spinning up to 1,000 halts when the balance is lower than a certain threshold as well as stops on a win are predetermined.

Players can be awarded as many as ten free games when at least three scatters of naughty or nice icons show up on the screen. Players would do well to pick either a naughty or nice girl to act as a bonus substitute. Prizes double when at least one symbol shows up in the winning combination. A bonus substitute leads to a win if the icon shows up while the player is in the middle of a free game. The resulting win can be either a subsequent free game or a multiplier of 20 times the stake. Unfortunately, players cannot retrigger this feature.

To obtain a jackpot when playing Naughty or Nice, players must receive five nice girl symbols on one pay line while playing the base game. A jackpot can also be obtained if a player receives 5 bonus symbols on a pay line during a free game. Any wins that a player receives from a jackpot are then added to later wins.

An outstanding jackpot of 10,000 coins can be obtained if five Santa symbols show up on the same pay line.

Overall

With its Christmas theme and great payouts, Naughty or Nice is a great game. Whether you play the thrilling game for the great graphics, entertainment, or to obtain a small fortune, you'll enjoy this one.
