Jingle Up

There is no shortage of Christmas-themed slots out there. But we have to admit that Jingle Up, from Gamevy, is absolutely unique, and worth your precious holiday time – any season of the year.

What makes it unique? Well, for starters, there are no reels. It's simply not in the slot machine style. Instead, there are seven rows, with three windows each. And with the way the frost has built up in each window, it almost looks like the front of a store.

In each window are the game's symbols. They include candy canes, Santa's hat, bells, presents, a Christmas tree, a wreath, a holiday stocking, chocolate cake, and various toys. OH, and of course, Santa himself!

To the right of the gameplay windows is a stack of presents. Each present represents the pay line. You click on the LINES buttons to choose how many lines you want to wager on each spin. You'll see how many lines you've wagered by the snow globes to the left of each row. They're lit up when active.

Each "spin" starts with the PLAY button. Payouts happen when there are three matching symbols. You can win anywhere from 2x to 10,000x your bet, depending on which symbols have landed. Unlike on some games, with strange pay table lines, the lights simply dim on the non-winning lines, while the winning lines light up and are framed in Christmas lights.

While there are not many features to Jingle Up, it's a different enough game to warrant a few spins on the free slot demo before playing it for money. Hopefully you've been good and Santa will bring you some big wins!
