Inspired Gaming had decided to add a festive touch to its portfolio with Santa's Winning Wishlist, a slot centred around bringing the joy of Christmas to the reels. The game is set in a snowy wonderland filled with presents, bells, and baubles, all framed by the anticipation of holiday cheer.
Built on a 5x3 grid with 20 paylines, Santa’s Winning Wishlist delivers straightforward mechanics that even occasional players can understand and enjoy. Santa himself appears as the Wild symbol, and the game’s progressive trail removes lower-paying symbols during the free spins, creating more potential opportunities for wins. In translation, regardless of whether you're drawn to the expanding wilds or intrigued by the Spin Chance feature, there’s plenty to explore here.
Inspired Gaming is known for creating accessible slots like Super Hot Fruits and Centurion Megaways. Santa’s Winning Wishlist continues this trend, blending its festive visuals with some impressive features for a holiday-themed experience that captures the magic of the season.
Here’s how you can get started and play Santa's Winning Wishlist for yourself:
If you aren't already registered, click on the green 'Sign Up' icon in the top right corner and fill in the required fields. You can then verify your account and make a deposit if you want to play Santa's Winning Wishlist with real funds.
The symbols in Santa’s Winning Wishlist feature a mix of holiday-themed items and traditional card royals. High-paying symbols include Christmas bells and baubles, while stockings and presents make up the mid-tier. A complete paytable is given below:
Symbol | Payout for 3, 4, 5 of a kind |
J | 0.2x, 1x, 5x |
Q | 0.2x, 1x, 5x |
K | 0.2x, 1x, 5x |
A | 0.2x, 1x, 5x |
Green and Blue Present | 0.4x, 1.5x, 10x |

Baubles | 2.5x, 10x, 40x |
Golden Bells | 5x, 20x, 50x |
Apart from the symbols above, Santa’s Winning Wishlist also comes equipped with a wild and scatter. Santa appears as the Wild symbol, substituting for all regular symbols to potentially help form winning combinations. During the Free Spins feature, Santa expands to cover entire reels, adding an extra festive flair to the gameplay. Scatter symbols, on the other hand, unlock the game’s Free Spins feature. Landing 3, 4, or 5 Scatter symbols awards 10, 15, or 20 free spins, respectively, providing the gateway to the progressive trail.
The Free Spins feature brings the game's progressive trail into play, displayed prominently above the reels. This trail has 13 positions divided into four stages, each designed to systematically remove lower-paying symbols from the grid. As you progress, the first stage eliminates all card royals (A, K, Q, J) from the reels, leaving room for mid-tier and high-paying symbols to dominate. Moving further, stage two removes green and blue presents, stage three eliminates purple presents, and stage four removes stockings.
Each time you complete a stage, you receive an additional five free spins, extending the feature and giving you more chances to potentially hit lucrative combinations. The gradual removal of lower-value symbols means that by the later stages, your spins are populated with only high-paying icons, dramatically increasing the potential for significant rewards.
If your balance falls below the current bet value, the Spin Chance feature provides an opportunity to risk your remaining balance for a chance at an additional spin. A green segment awards the spin, while a red segment forfeits the balance.
Tis’ the season for festive slots and BetVictor is well aware of this. Apart from Inspired Gaming’s Santa’s Winning Wishlist, BetVictor is packed with holiday-themed titles like Book Of Christmas, Jingle Bells Bonanza, and Santa Bonanza - each one adding their own festive dash to the season.
