Slot Features
Wild symbol in the game can only appear during the Winter Wild feature and it can substitute for all the other symbols in the game.
Winter Wild
Snowflake is the Scatter and it can land on all reels during the base game. When it lands on the grid the position it landed on will get marked with a Frozen Frame. It is possible that the Snowflake will randomly turn Golden and mark its position with a Golden Frame.
The position with the Golden Frame will turn into the Wild symbol on the next spin. All adjacent positions with the Frozen Frames will also turn into Wilds as well as the positions next to them. Frozen Frames and Golden Frames do not disappear from the reels until they turn into Wilds.
Progression Meter
Every time the Snowflake lands 1 point will be added to the meter set above the grid. The meter has three thresholds that will move you forward at 50 collected points, 100 collected points and 150 collected points. At the first threshold, the Mirror feature will get activated the same as with the second. On the third one, the Bonus Game Multiplier will get upgraded progressively from x1 up to x100. After each upgrade of the Bonus Game Multiplier, the meter will get reset back to 0
If the number of collected points exceeds 150, the Bonus Game Multiplier is upgraded, and the difference is added to the meter after it resets to 0. If the Multiplier reaches the max of x100, no points will get added to the meter until the Bonus is activated. After the feature ends, the Multiplier will reset back to x1.
Mirror Feature
Mirror feature is activated on thresholds 1 and 2, and it will activate right after the Chest feature but before the Winter Wild FEATURE. Frozen and Golden Frames on the left side on reels 1 and 2 will get mirrored to the right, placing Frozen Frames on the corresponding positions on the right, and vice versa for the Frames on reels 3 and 4. If the frame already exists on the targeted position the mirroring process will get skipped.
Chest Feature
The Chest symbol lands on reel 5 in the Base game and when it does it will award either Progression or Frozen Frames. If you get awarded with Progression, it will add between 3 and 6 points to the Meter, and if you get awarded with Frozen Frames, between 2 and 4 will get placed in random positions.
Bonus Game
Snowman is the Bonus symbol and if you land 3 of them on reels 2 through 4, you will trigger the Bonus Game. Once triggered, a Gift will appear on the screen and you will get between 9 and 18 clicks. Each click will award a cash prize between x0.25 and x20 the bet. All cash prizes are summed up and multiplied by the Bonus Game Multiplier collected from the base game.
Persistent State
Bonus Multiplier, the meter and the Frozen and Golden Frames positions are linked to the bet and saved with it. Each bet is saved separately which means that whenever you change your bet to a bet you already played at, the Bonus Game Multiplier, the meter and the Frames will get restored.
Summary
Wins of Winter is a solid game with a lot of features but they just don’t seem to coalesce. The design is acceptable, but as with most Fantasma-powered games, it just lacks that little something. When we’re talking about numbers, we come down to the slot with 96% RTP, high volatility and x5000 the bet as maximum exposure.
