Aloha! Christmas Slot Review

Building upon the success of the original “Aloha!”, NetEnt has come up with a celebratory version of their hit slot influenced by the Christmas holidays. So what are you waiting for? Let’s spin those reels and see those gifts rolling in!

Based on what appears to be some kind of animation style, the game takes place on an exotic resort. We know that because we can clearly see the tiki stands at the left of the screen while at the right you can make out the smiling wooden totem wearing its Christmas hat. The logo of the game is located near the top right corner of the interface, the majority of which is occupied by the reels.

The game differs from classic slots as it utilizes the cluster win mechanic. This means that every 9 or more horizontally or vertically connected symbols form a winning combination. Other than that, the reels spin altogether and come to stop individually in consecutive order.

There is no denying that this is one of NetEnt’s most popular titles but it would be nowhere if it wasn’t for its predecessor Aloha! Cluster Pays so make sure you check this game out as well. For now, though, let’s get back to the subject in question.

How to Play Aloha! Christmas

The game has 6 rows and 6 reels without any fixed paylines since wins are formed in a different way as mentioned in the previous section. The controls located below the reels let you adjust the bet size, enable the autoplay feature, spin, or access the in-game menu for further customization.

Bets start at $0.10 and are capped at $100 per spin. Aloha! Christmas has an RTP of 96% and is a low/medium variance slot. This means that wins are formed more infrequently than usual but your chances of hitting a big win are slightly higher as well. That said, the most you can win is 1,750x your stake which isn’t too shabby for such a slot.

Symbols-wise, the game features 4 low paying and 3 high paying symbols. The first are represented by a flower, a seashell, half a coconut, and a pineapple while the latter come in the form of a green, red, and blue totem.

The slot’s special symbols are:

  • Scatter – Represented by a “free spins” tagged postcard, this symbol always appears stacked but actually counts as one. 3 of these activate the free spins feature.
  • Mystery Symbol – The mystery symbol appears in both the main game and free spins. After the reels have stopped, all mystery symbols turn into the same regular symbol.
  • Multiplier Wilds – A wild, with a multiplier, that can be formed by a revealed mystery symbol.
  • Starfish – A special symbol that can only appear during the free spins.

Game Rules

Aloha! Christmas Features

The game has its fair share of features to offer so without further ado, let’s jump right into the action!

Stacked Symbols

During the main game and free spins, the scatter and the mask symbols appear stacked. Even though mask symbols appear stacked and count as two symbols, they don’t appear stacked during the Sticky Win Re-Spin or when substituting for mystery symbols.

Stacked Symbols
Multiplier Wilds

One of the mystery symbols can turn into a multiplier wild. In detail, the possible multipliers are:

  • In the main game – 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, or 7x
  • In Tiki Bar Free Spins – 2x, 3x, or 4x
  • In Tiki Bar Max Free Spins – 4x, 5x, or 7x

The multiplier wilds substitute for all symbols except for the scatter and starfish symbols.

Multiplier Wilds
Sticky Win Re-Spins

This feature can be randomly activated after any main game winning spin. The winning cluster and all matching symbols become sticky symbols. All sticky symbols appearing during the re-spin also stick to the reels. At the end of the re-spin, a multiplier is applied to the wins, the value of which depends on the final size of the winning cluster.

Free Spins

Getting 3 scatters will activate the feature. Getting 4, 5, or 6 will also apply a 10x, 25x, or 50x multiplier to that spin’s win.

You can either choose to play the Tiki Bar Free Spins or the Tiki Bar Max Free Spins. The first one consists of 10 spins with 2x, 3x, or 4x multipliers while the latter consists of 6 spins with 4x, 5x, or 7x multipliers.

During the free spins, starfish symbols will be collected. For every 3 you collect, you will be awarded 2 additional free spins and a low paying symbol will be removed from play.
