A Christmas Carol Introduction

The Charles Dickens classic A Christmas Carol has been recreated several times as feature films, opera performances, games and TV series; therefore, it was only logical for Betsoft to create an exciting 3D pokie to add to the list of homages.

Based on the renowned tale of Ebenezer Scrooge, watch as the old miser himself sits alongside the reels with his candle, glancing grumpily around as he awaits the visits from the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future. These ghosts offer some exciting bonuses to the player to redeem the old man of his selfish ways.

Obviously this game is available to play for Free - just like the hundreds of other free pokies we have at Online Pokies 4U.

Theme

While the story is centred around Ebenezer, the pokie itself is no Scrooge and appears to be a huge fan of dishing out credits to players. With clear influences from the Dickens classic, the symbols featured can easily be linked to the tale on which the pokie is based. There is the Scrooge's Bank symbol, from which the infamous old miser gains his wealth, along with stacks of gold coins.

The ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future can be found on the reels, with the appearance of three triggering an exciting bonus. Other symbols include Christmas-themed symbols such as presents and bells adorned with a ribbon. The background shows a snowy London outside Scrooge's window, while the traditional Christmas background music hits a crescendo upon each spin.

Format

This pokie boasts five reels and a generous 25 paylines. The coins played can be adjusted from $0.02 to $1 and the bet per line is adjustable from one to five, resulting in a maximum stake of $125. The graphics are typically Betsoft in that the 3D animations and the overall design of the pokie are stunning. This quality is not compromised for mobile or tablet users, who can enjoy the same excellent level of gaming wherever they go.

Ghost of Christmas Past

Triggering three orange ghosts of Christmas Past will cause the youngest ghost to fly about the bedroom, giving Scrooge a spook before triggering the Past Spins feature. Each spin guarantees a payline win or additional feature. A nice added feature is that as we join the Ghost of Christmas Past in travelling back in time, the reels move backwards when spinning. This is a subtle yet invaluable touch from Betsoft.

Ghost of Christmas Present

Trigger three or more of this green symbol to earn Present Wilds. All the ghosts on the reels will be transformed into wild symbols for an added payout, with Ebenezer cowering beneath his blanket.

Ghost of Christmas Future

If you manage to get three or more of the blue glowing symbol that is the Ghost of Christmas Future, you can earn Future Winning Spins whereby more free spins are awarded with additional triggering symbols.

Double Up option

Are you feeling daring? A Christmas Carol's Double Up option offers you the chance to double your win! For this 'double or nothing' feature, simply flip one of Scrooge's many coins and place a bet as to whether it will land on heads or tails. Guess wrong and you will lose the entire win; however, guess right and watch the coins come flying in!
