Play’n GO launches Wrappin’ Christmas Gold slot

New Christmas-themed title adds Bonus Spins, Collect & Win and Instant Bonus features led by the Khufu character.

Play’n GO has launched Wrappin’ Christmas Gold, a Christmas-themed slot featuring the Khufu character, the supplier said.

The game runs on a 5-reel, 3-row layout and includes three feature pots labelled Bonus Spins, Collect & Win and Instant Bonus. According to the release, the pots collect red, green and purple Scatter Gems, with three or more Bonus Spins Scatter Gems triggering six Bonus Spins that can be retriggered.

Collect & Win activates when a Mummy Symbol lands on reel 1 with at least one Collect & Win Scatter Gem, with Scatter Gems also able to activate the feature on their own, Play’n GO said. The feature starts with five spins on a 5×5 reel set where only Coins and Scatter Gems can land, and a 2×2 Mummy collects Coins in its area. As Scatter Gems land, the Mummy moves to claim them and progresses along an upgrade trail that can expand the Mummy up to filling the entire reel set, with additional spins available along the way.

In the base game and during Bonus Spins, any Wild can trigger an Instant Bonus pick feature, the supplier said. Players pick from 15 Mystery Symbols hiding four fixed bonuses, ranging from Mini at 5x to Grand at 500x the total bet, with the first bonus revealed three times awarded.

Magnus Wallentin, Games Ambassador at Play’n GO, said: “Most Christmas characters are busy giving things away. Khufu has other ideas. He’s greedy, he’s grumpy and he’s wearing a Santa hat over his bandages, and all he wants is what’s his. That’s what makes him so much fun in Collect & Win, where the more gems he grabs, the bigger he gets, until there’s no room left for anyone else. He may not have much Christmas spirit, but he makes a brilliant Christmas star.”
