Get ready for some Elf mischief in Microgaming’s new slot for Christmas 2020, A Tale of Elves. You can spin from 30p to £20 and the RTP is 95.07%. This is a high variance slot and has features including free spins, scatters and wilds.

A Tale of Elves Design

Set in a snowy woodland with snow covered trees, is a little log cabin with four cute elves to help bring you luck and fill your stocking with bonus features. Inside the log cabin behind the reels, are shelves full of Christmas toys and toy designs on the walls. It really ticks the boxes in terms of Christmas themed slots; the four different elves have the cutest faces, Santa’s workshop feels just as magical as you’d imagine, and the soundtrack is suitably Christmassy with carols and sleigh bells.

Gameplay and features

This is a 5 reel, 243 payline video slot with symbols including J to A Royals (which have the lowest pay out value), yellow, orange, green and blue elves, Santa and wreaths. If you get 5 elves of the same colour in a row, you’ll win between x5 and x8.33 your stake.

The wreath symbols act as the wild. Wilds can land anywhere on the grid and swap out any symbols to hopefully give you some winning combos. If you land 5 on a line they’ll be worth double the top premium.

Next up, we have the jolly Santa who holds all the free spins. If you get 3 Santas in a row you’ll be awarded with free spins and receive a pay out of x1 your stake. Four Santas gives you x20 your stake and if you land 5 Santas you’ll be awarded with x200 your stake.

Verdict

This is a high volatility game with some big wins to be had. There may not be a huge amount of additional features, but it’s a really well executed design that is perfect for Christmas.
