Christmas Multihops

Max Win Gaming sets Christmas Multihops in a snow-covered village of cosy buildings, with the game working over a large 7x7 symbol grid rather than a conventional reel set. Wins don't rely on paylines here — land 10 or more of the same paying symbol anywhere on the grid and it counts as a win, with the payout climbing as the count goes higher.

Nine pay symbols fill out the grid: a gift box, a gingerbread man, a rocking horse, a stocking, a drum, a tree ornament, a snowman and three separate candy cane designs. A match of 10 or 11 symbols returns 0.2x to 10x the bet, rising to 3x-50x the stake once 14 or more matching symbols are in view at once.

Two features do most of the heavy lifting. A Multiplier Grid sits beneath the symbols, with values arranged from the outside in — 2x on the outer ring, then 3x, then 5x, then 10x at the very centre. Whenever Christmas Multihops' Random Wild feature fires, a wild lands somewhere on the grid and multiplies any win by whatever Grid value sits under that position. The wild doesn't disappear once it's paid out, either: it jumps to a new spot on the Grid afterwards, adding that new position's value onto the multiplier it's already carrying, so a Random Wild that keeps landing on wins can snowball into a considerably larger multiplier over successive spins.

Free spins arrive after four scatter symbols land in the base game, awarding 10 spins in total. Random Wild fires before every single spin during the bonus, though unlike the base game its multiplier resets back down once each spin resolves rather than carrying forward. Players who'd rather skip to the bonus can buy it outright for 100x the stake, which brings the return down slightly to 96.5%. Run normally, Christmas Multihops pays out at 96.28% RTP, is rated high volatility, takes stakes from 0.20 to 20 per spin, and caps its win potential at 5,000x.
