Naughty Nick’s Book Slot Review – Play’n Go
We have another Christmas slot release to keep us in the festive spirit, the 7-day countdown now on for the big day. Play’n Go has finally released its Christmas game for 2022; I love how every year, we have 1 from each to look forward to. The studio has a lot in store for 2023, and I am excited to review it all. The last game I reviewed from the provider is titled ‘Athena Ascending’, which has a max win capped at 10,000x and a Free Spins feature with sticky Multiplier Wilds. Today we are learning all about ‘Naughty Nick’s Book’, which is available to play now!
Instead of the typical Christmas slot, filled with adorable decorations and a winter wonderland. We have Naughty Nick instead of Santa Klaus. The studio has named Nick a ‘Crooked Santa’ with rambunctious friends. His friends include an elf, a reindeer and a spoilt child. If you have watched the movie Bad Santa, you will love the visuals for this slot. The game background looks to be set in a small wooden cabin. With Christmas decorations, bottles of booze, and so many other details to look at.
When you first load this slot, Nick will climb out of the fireplace and jump onto the sofa with a bottle of booze to throw at the screen. Visuals are filled with many different animations. Symbols are vibrant, with snow on low-paying and Nicks’s fun friends as premiums. Each symbol has a unique animation which is shown when part of a win. The wooden cabin changes when the Free Spins feature is triggered. With the Christmas lights now turned on and the fire lit. I think Play’n Go has done a good job this year, with its own version of Christmas to make this fun slot.
Naughty Nick’s Book has a setup of 6 reels by 3 rows; this includes 10 set pay lines. This slot is high variance with a set RTP of 96.28% and a max win capped at 7,500x. You can bet from £0.01 to £100.
Naughty Nick’s Book Symbols & Pay Table
There are 10 symbols in total; this includes 5 low-paying symbols. These are represented by 10, J, Q, K and A. There are also 5 premium symbols, which are represented by Elf’s, A Child, A Reindeer and Naughty Nick. In addition to these regular symbols is a Naughty Or Nice Scatter, which is also Wild. The highest paying symbol is Naughty Nick & the Book symbol; both pay 750x for 6 across a pay line. The Book Wild can substitute for all symbols to form a winning combo.
Naughty Nick’s Book Features & Mechanics
Landing 3 or more scatters during a base game spin will trigger the Free Spins feature. Awarding 6 Free Spins, during spins, reel 6 is active. Landing 3 or more scatters during a Free Spin will award additional spins. When Free Spins begin, a special expanding symbol is chosen at random. Land 3 or more of this symbol if it’s low paying and 2 or more for a premium symbol for an expansion to occur.
Conclusion
Overall, I think this slot definitely stands out within the list of released Christmas games this year by all the studios within the casino industry. Instead of the usual Christmas theme we have a Bad Santa version with main Character Naughty Nick and his rambunctious friends. The game background is set in a small cabin which is cluttered and has Christmas decorations all over. When you play this game you notice a lot of small animations, plus the fun one which plays when you load the slot initially. Now onto the features & mechanics;
There is nothing special within the base game spins which is a shame, so all faith is on the Free Spins feature. The Free Spins feature has a special expanding symbol, plus reel 6 is now unlocked for the duration of this feature. This bonus feature plays like Book Of Dead but the Christmas edition, so perfect for all book lovers. I do wish there was a small mechanic within the base game. Be sure to try out the game for yourself and check out our exclusive casino offers.
