HOWE TO PLAY ROYAL X-MASS 2
This game revolves around two essential gameplay elements – Scatter Pay and Cascading Reels. Let’s begin with the former.
Scatter Pay means that this slot machine does not use traditional paylines. Instead, your winnings are determined by landing symbols of the same kind, regardless of their position on the table. Fresh Crush employs a spacious 6×5 board, allowing you to hit numerous symbols simultaneously. You’ll need at least 8 to get a payout, but achieving 10 or more symbols will result in a higher reward, up to a maximum of 12 symbols. While it is possible to hit more than 12 instances of the same symbol, it does not yield a larger prize.
Cascading Reels, on the other hand, are a feature that remains active throughout the entire game, including the base game. Essentially, each winning symbol is removed from the game, making room for new symbols to descend from the top of the board and take their place. These newly arrived symbols have the potential to form additional winning combinations. This, in turn, can lead to a series of consecutive winning combinations after a single spin. For a more comprehensive understanding of this feature, we recommend consulting our detailed guide on cascade features in slots.
Multipliers
Santa may sometimes drop new symbols shaped like gifts. These will contain multipliers that can massively increase your profits in any given round. It’s a good thing, too – most base payouts are quite small and require other features such as cascades and multipliers to be profitable. That’s just the way the game was designed as highly volatile.
Gift multipliers can be 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 6x, 8x, 12x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 50x, 100x, 250x, 500x, or even 1,000x.
Multipliers activate at the end of a cascade and multiply any winnings by their total amount. They can’t make cascades because they remain in place until the very end of all cascades. However, all winnings accumulated from all winning combinations in that round are multiplied. If two or more multiplier symbols are present, their values are added together before multiplying winnings. They also provide additional bonuses during free spins, which we’ll explain below.
Royal X-mass 2 Free Spins
The base game features a special Bonus symbol that is quite valuable as a slot symbol. However, if you hit 4 or more of these symbols, you’ll be rewarded with 15 free spins. While hitting more than 4 doesn’t grant additional spins, it does increase the payout for hitting them. During free spins, hitting 3 or more Bonus symbols will grant an extra 5 spins.
The multipliers in Royal X-mass 2 free spins are particularly noteworthy, as they add to a running counter that can be seen at the top left. Each multiplier that boosts a winning combination adds its value to the counter, which accumulates until the bonus round ends. Every multiplier in free spins adds this accumulated bonus to its value, resulting in potentially massive returns. However, multipliers that appear during free spins without a winning combination are not added to the counter, and winning cascades that end with no multipliers on the reels are calculated as usual.
