Flowers Christmas Edition Bitcoin Slot Review

Some of the most memorable slots are the seasonal holiday ones and the frosty game Flowers Christmas Edition from Netent is a good example. That’s because aside from the obvious chance to win up to 75,000 coins, the frosty flowers theme of this 5-reel, 3-row and 30 fixed paylines slot will have you shaking in your boots.

In keeping with a Christmas theme, Flowers Christmas Edition has a colourful design that includes Christmas decorations and a candy cane. The symbols include five different anthropomorphised cartoon-style flowers that can appear as solitary or double so that they count as one or two symbols. The lowest paying symbols are the K, Q, J and A poker icons made of gingerbread or some other festive treat. The reels are translucent, painted with a chilly blue and partially covered in frost. You can hear the sound of birds chirping in the back ground while the reels are idle or moving, and there are other playful sound effects during spins, wins and triggered features.

The slot has a theoretical return to player (RTP) of 96.3% with bets ranging from 0.30 to 30.

Triggered features included in this slot start with the Jack Frost wild symbol that appear on any reel replacing all symbols except the Free Spin scatter and Double symbols. These symbols can appear as stacked which increases your odds of winning great prizes. The wild can form its own payline where 3, 4 or 5 will credit you with 250, 1,000 or 5,000 coins. Frosty cloud scatter symbols can blow your way as single or double scatters with four or more unlocking anywhere from 10 to 30 free spins with multipliers ranging from two to ten. The number of free spins and multiplier values are determined by the number of scatters you manage to pick up since they can range from four to eight.

Besides the great features and design, another positive point of Flowers Christmas Edition bitcoin slot is that it is optimized for desktop and mobile so you also look to play it on the move on your Android or iOS device.
