Money Sleigh Slot Review
Money Sleigh from Relax Gaming delivers the spirit of Christmas like you’ve never seen before. Santa has roped the whole crew in to assist in delivering thousands of gifts. With 10,000x in gifts to deliver, it’s going to be a busy night!
In one corner, we have Team Santa, the man who can resurrect used Giver, Gatherer, and Helper features. Also in play are Eternal versions which get the season off to a rewarding start. In addition, Super Helper and Giver symbols are also available, sure to make everyone’s Christmas a memorable one.
Money Sleigh is the gift that keeps on giving as it makes its debut in November 2024. With Halloween still on the agenda, it’s hard to wrap your head around Christmas, let alone Christmas slots, but Relax Gaming is kicking off the festivities in good time with Money Sleigh, as are Thunderkick with Hot Turkey.
Join us as we take an early peak at Money Sleigh in our in-depth slot review!
Base Game & Features
Set upon Santa’s sleigh, Money Sleigh is a 5-7 reel Video Slot with 20-28 active positions. This game does not feature pay lines or ways to win, and only Bonus Scatters appear on the reels in the base game.
Money Sleigh is playable from £.€0.10 per spin, up to a maximum bet size of £.€100 per spin. Other statistics include a theoretical RTP of 96%, a High Volatility rating, and a max win cap of 10,000x your bet. Lower RTP modules of 94% and 86% (Germany) are also available.
Respins Bonus
Landing 3 or more Bonus Scatters in the base game triggers the Respins Bonus, awarding 3 initial Respins. Once active, the reel layout can expand to 7×4 in size. During this round, 13 special symbols are in effect, these are as follows:
- Money Symbols: Reveals a value between 1x and 10x your bet
- Gatherer: Collects all values on the reels and adds them to its own
- Gatherer-Giver: Selects 3-5 symbols as targets, adding their values to its own and pays out its updated value to each of the targets
- Helper: Doubles the values of 3-8 symbols. It may also act on the same symbol multiple times
- Santa: Revives up to 7 used non-persistent symbols. It may also act on the same symbol multiple times
- Snow Bank: Pulls all regular symbols and removes them from the reels. Please note, that special symbols cannot be banked
- Super Helper: Targets 1 random symbol, doubling its value from 2-6 times
- Super Giver: Reveals a Money symbol with a value between 5x and 100x and targets 1 random symbol, adding the revealed value from 3-10 times
- Eternal Gatherer: Works in the same manner as a regular Gatherer, but activates after each and every spin. Please note, that this symbol does not collect its own value
- Eternal Helper: Works in the same manner as a regular Helper, but activates after each spin. It may also act on the same symbol multiple times
- Eternal Gatherer-Giver: Works in the same way as a regular Gatherer-Giver, but activates after every spin
- Eternal Santa: Works in the same way as a regular Santa, but activates after every spin. Please note, that the same symbol can be targeted multiple times
- Eternal Mystery: Transforms into a different symbol after each spin (gatherer, helper, gatherer-giver, super helper, or super giver)
Each time a new symbol hits, it remains in view and resets the Respins Meter to 3. Special symbols act in the order they appear, from top to bottom row, and within each row from left to right.
Our Verdict
To say we were not expecting a repeat of Money Cart would be an understatement. It seems that Relax Gaming is having serious withdrawals from their Money Cart series, and we can’t really blame them. The Money Cart and Money Train series are by far the most rewarding and thrilling titles to come from Relax Gaming’s portfolio.
To see the end of such a promising series was extremely difficult for players, but Money Sleigh gives us a taste of what we’re missing thanks to the strong similarities in gameplay.
Money Sleigh leaves little to be desired in the base game, saving the best parts of gameplay for the Respins Bonus. With the lack of symbols, mechanics, and features in the base game, your main focus is landing those glorious Bonus Scatters.
Once 3 or more Bonus Scatters appear, you will enter an engaging Respins round, where 13 special symbols are brought to life. Money symbols appear with a value between 1x and 10x your bet, while the remaining 12 symbols optimise wins for significant rewards.
During this time, you’re hoping to land any of the 13 symbols in order to refill the Respins Meter. Without additional symbols, the Respins round can be over as quickly as it began. Eternal symbols are the most rewarding as they continue to work their magic throughout Respins, and landing a Santa symbol will revive a number of used feature symbols, edging you close to the 10,000x max win cap with each spin.
Whether Money Sleigh will withstand the change of seasons is questionable, however, we’re certain it will be a top performer and a popular choice in the upcoming holiday.
*Money Sleigh is available to play at Top Casino Sites from the 14th November 2024.
