Christmas Krampus Slot by Light and Wonder 🎰 Free Demo and Review

Christmas Krampus Review

Light and Wonder are working hard to make a name for themselves, and we are more than happy to review all their new releases. In this article, we’ll take a look at Christmas Krampus, a slot they launched for the Christmas season of 2022. It’s quite classic at first glance with its 5 reels, 3 rows and 10 paylines, but there are some pleasant surprises lurking inside!

For one, Christmas Krampus has a darker theme than the vast majority of Christmas-themed online slots, and the inclusion of the titular monster does make for a fresh experience. The game’s overall production values are just slightly above average, but its atmosphere is top-notch!

Christmas Krampus Slot – Reels Screen

There’s no official volatility given, but we estimate it to be high, since you can win up to 40,000x your stake in Christmas Krampus. The slot’s min bet is then £0.10 per spin, while the highest you can go is £20. To that end, things are geared more towards low rollers and recreational players, which is entirely fine with us. In any case, the theoretical RTP of Christmas Krampus can be 94% or 96.16%, with the latter value being the default one.

Christmas Krampus Slot Features

There are as many as 11 pay symbols in Christmas Krampus, so getting a win is by no means easy. To compensate for that, symbol payouts are on the higher side of the spectrum, and even the slot’s low-paying symbols, which show card ranks and gifts, pay up to 20x your bet for a full combo. As for the high-paying symbols, they feature candies, snowmen, Christmas trees, elves, and even logos. Logo symbols are the most valuable symbols, and a set of 5 will net you a juicy 200x win!

Aside from pay symbols, there are also Wilds and Scatters, so the traditional combination of specials.

Christmas Krampus Slot – Free Spins Feature

Land 3, 4, or 5 Scatter symbols to launch the Free Spins feature with 6, 8, or 10 free spins, respectively. During free spins, you can get special Krampus symbols that work as Walking Wilds, giving you free respins as they make their way to the left side of the playing field.

It’s not only that, though. Krampus symbols also collect the values of all adjacent gift symbols, giving you another chance of winning that way. Each gift symbol is worth between 2x and 50x your bet, so the payouts can be rather decent indeed. Retriggers aren’t available, however, so you’ll want to get as many Krampus symbols as possible for all those juicy respins!

To round things off, you can also use the Buy Pass option and simply purchase a free spins trigger for a fee of 54.1x your bet.

Review Summary

To sum things up, it’s fair to say that Christmas Krampus is an engaging Christmas-themed slot that banks on its darker atmosphere and enjoyable free spins with collectable symbols to bring you wins as high as 40,000x your bet. If that sounds at least slightly interesting, make sure to give it a proper shot!
