Christmas Plaza DoubleMax Review

The Holidays theme releases will only accelerate from this point forward, as we enter the last month of a very eventful 2022. Yggdrasil has decided to jump on the Xmas clone bandwagon, as most developers with a commercial bone in their body do, and the reskin honor goes to Raptor Doublemax. Christmas Plaza DoubleMax is the exact same game in other words, but with Holidays friendly visuals.

The original has, somewhat surprisingly, not really become as popular as we anticipated, but perhaps this Christmas version can remind people what a great game it really is. It’s not too often you get doubling multiplier action, and it’s even more tense when the multiplier never resets in the bonus round. The 20,000x potential is solid, and Christmas Plaza DoubleMax is one to check out this season.

Christmas Plaza DoubleMax Slot Features

The premium symbols pay between 2 and 5 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins, and the Santa hat female with a glass of champagne is the Wild symbol. She steps in for pay symbols to help complete wins, and all winning symbols are removed via the Dropdown mechanic.

A wild symbol will always spawn in an empty position after each dropdown win, while new and/or existing symbols drop down to fill the remaining empty positions. Each dropdown win also doubles the win multiplier, and the process repeats as long as you keep landing new wins. The multiplier has no upper limit, and it resets between base game spins.

The Bonus Round triggers from 3, 4, or 5 xmas present scatters in view, and this gives you 7, 10, or 13 free spins, respectively. You can choose to gamble for up to 13 free spins if you get less organically, but you risk losing the whole feature doing so. The big difference from the base game is that the doubling win multiplier never resets, and there are no extra spins or retriggers possible since scatters do not appear during the feature.

If you want to double your bonus round chances, you can turn on the Golden Bet feature. This will cost you 25 % more per spin, which seems like a reasonable price to pay. The Bonus Buy option is available in some jurisdictions, but not in the UK for sure. If available, you can purchase 7 free spins for 100x the stake, and you can gamble for more spins if you dare.

You get to see a smaller base game win or two, before we purchase the bonus round at 0:32 into the 3:11-minute highlights video. We lost our first gamble attempt, but tried again and won. The bonus round thus starts at 1:32, as we were satisfied with 10 free spins. You can see for yourself how we fared by hitting the play button below.

Review Summary

It’s clear that Yggdrasil hasn’t poured tons of effort into the rather standard Xmas presentation you get in Christmas Plaza DoubleMax, but it gets the job done. However, the gameplay underneath it all is still baring its razor sharp teeth in a volatile romp that’s hard to put down. It’s almost like you’re waiting for the Xmas skin to be torn away by claws, as the raptor from the original roars at you with its predator smile.

Having the multiplier double per consecutive dropdown win is as exciting as ever in other words, and even more so in the bonus round. It’s a tad annoying that you have to gamble to get more than 7 free spins a lot of the time, but the Golden Bet makes the feature less rare to trigger. The 20,000x potential is solid enough for a concept like this, and Christmas Plaza DoubleMax is definitely one of the most interesting Xmas releases this year.

If you love Christmas Plaza DoubleMax Slot you should also try:

Raptor Doublemax - is the original Yggdrasil installment, and it comes with a dinosaur theme that’s pleasing to the eye. Every dropdown win doubles the win multiplier, and wilds are generated as well. The wild multiplier never resets between bonus round spins, and you can win up to 20,000x your stake.

Dublin Up Doublemax - is a Celtic-themed installment from Reflex Gaming, and wilds are generated per cascading win. The win multiplier doubles per cascade as well, and the multiplier only keeps building in the bonus round. The max win is 20,024x your stake.

Tiki Runner 2 - Doublemax - comes with medium to high volatility, and this Polynesian-themed Bulletproof Games release is also all about the doubling win multiplier action. The multiplier never resets in the bonus round, and this is how you’re most likely to close in on the 20,000x win cap.
