Moon Princess Christmas Kingdom Review

In our review of Sisters of the Sun, we envisioned that the 3 fierce sisters, Sekhmet, Hathor and Bastet, would eat the Sailor Moon cuties for lunch if they ever met. In an unexpected twist however, Play’n Go’s anime-inspired Princesses seem to have come out on top. They’ve basically taken over the Sisters of the Sun template for a Holidays season special. Moon Princess Christmas Kingdom is a reskin job in other words, with one small, yet crucial, difference.

The 5x5 semi-transparent grid is set in a snow-filled landscape with a castle in the distance, and the reels are filled with Xmas decoration symbols and the sweet princesses you know from the original Moon Princess. You get plenty of base game action, with wild generating cascades, 3 random Girl Power modifiers and clearing the grid in the Trinity Feature is your only way into the bonus round. Overall, this is a highly enjoyable release, and it wraps up the trilogy like a neatly done Xmas present.

Moon Princess Christmas Kingdom Features

Landing 5 matching princess symbols in a row (vertically or horizontally) awards 10x your stake, while a mix of any of them pays 5x your stake for the same. The Cascading Wins feature removes all winning symbols, and new and/or existing symbols then drop down to fill the gaps.

This goes on as long as you keep winning, and wilds are generated in the middle positions between 3 removed symbols. Wilds remain in play for the duration of the cascading sequence, and they substitute for regular pay symbols like wilds usually do.

You will notice that 5 random positions are highlighted by a mistletoe frame per spin, and any win that happens in a framed position increases the win multiplier by +1. The multiplier resets between base game spins though, but this is not the case in the bonus round.

A princess is always by your side, and she may trigger her unique ‘Girl Power’ feature at random times. Here is an overview of what you can expect from each of the 3 princesses:

• Love - transform one symbol type into another.
• Star - adds 1 or 2 wild symbols to the grid.
• Storm - removes 2 symbol types from the grid.

The Trinity Feature triggers when you land a single fox scatter anywhere in view. This can happen organically as in the original game, or via the added and randomly triggered ‘What, The Fox’ feature. Either way, it gives you a free spin where the 3 princesses take turns playing out their respective girl powers on non-winning cascades. The aim is to clear the grid completely, as this awards the bonus round.

The Bonus Round can only trigger from clearing the grid in the Trinity Feature, and you get to choose between the 3 princesses before the feature starts:

• Love - awards 4 free spins with +4 extra spins per fox scatter that lands in the bonus round.
• Star - awards 5 free spins with +3 extra spins per fox scatter that lands in the bonus round.
• Storm - awards 8 free spins with +2 extra spins per fox scatter that lands in the bonus round.

The number of mistletoe frames increases from 5 to 10 during the bonus round, and the Girl Power from your selected Princess helps you out on every non-winning spin. The win multiplier is carried over from the base game, and it does not reset between spins. You cannot get more than 150 free spins in total during the feature.

Our 7:18-minute highlights video starts out with a lengthy cascading sequence that completely cleared the grid, and this awarded the 50x bonus boosted by the x4 multiplier we’d managed to rack up. The ‘What, the Fox’ feature triggers at 3:38, and it leads to the bonus round. We went with Storm as our companion for the feature, and you can see it all for yourself by hitting the play button below.

Review Summary

While Sisters of the Sun was a more fierce version of Play’n Go’s endearing classic, Moon Princess, it kind of makes sense to complete the circle by allowing the cutesy anime princesses to express their girlie powers in that format for an Xmas release. The only difference is that triggering the bonus round is slightly more likely in this version, since the ‘What, the Fox’ feature can trigger at any time. It will not make a huge difference though, and the math model is identical to Sisters of the Sun.

So are the other features, for that matter, and there is plenty going on most of the time. You have wilds being generated from cascading wins, as well as the 3 random Girl Powers that keep you going when you least expect it. The Trinity Feature can award decent payouts even if you don’t take it all the way to the bonus round, and the 15,000x potential is still 3 times higher than what’s on offer in the original Moon Princess (albeit with a 1 in 1 billion probability).

If you love Moon Princess Christmas Kingdom you should also try:

Sisters of the Sun - is one to try if you want to deal with 3 females that come across as the opposite of the cute and well-behaved princesses you’re dealing with here. The features and the math model are the same though, except there is no random ‘what, the fox’ feature that can help trigger the bonus round. The volatility is still high, and you can win up to 15,000x your stake.

Moon Princess - is the original Play’n Go release that’s long since established itself as a classic. Inspired by the popular anime series, Sailor Moon, it plays out on a 5x5 cascading reels cluster pays grid. The 3 princesses hand out superpowers at random times, and you get to choose one of them for the bonus round where you can win up to 5,000x your stake.

Koi Princess - was the first anime-based slot that broke into the mainstream back in 2015, and this NetEnt classic is jam packed with both charm, charisma and features. You can look forward to 4 random base game modifiers, as well as 2 different bonus rounds. The volatility is medium, and you can win up to 1,000x your stake.
