If you think Santa will come on his reindeer driven sleigh this year to distribute his toys, then think again. Santa has gone cool with new hot wheels. Santa's Wild Ride, which is Microgaming's latest online slot game, presents a new look Santa.

Santa Claus is riding a Motor Cycle. Also on the reels are a Female Pillion Rider and an elfish Mechanic. Santa's favorite food is a jumbo Sandwich, which he washes down with Beer. But some things have not changed. Roly Poly Pudding, Cookies and Tarts still are available at Santa's North Pole Home. The scatter symbol is the motor cycle Keys and the wild symbol is Santa's Wild Ride Logo which gives a random multiplier of 2x, 3x or 4x.

The free spins bonus round is really exciting. It is triggered when three or more scatter symbols appear anywhere on the reels and offers a payout of up to 1.9 million coins. Getting even close to that will be a big Christmas gift. Players have to choose from one of three features, all of which offer 25 free spins with doubled payouts. In the Stacked Wild feature the wild symbol appears stacked across all reels. In the Expanding Wild feature the wild symbol can expand to make the entire reel wild. In the Trailing Wild feature Microgaming introduces a new type of wild symbol. It creates a trail of wilds as it slides down the reels. Unfortunately the free spins bonus round cannot be retriggered. Santa's Wild Ride also offers a Free Gift Bonus, but this is not played on a second screen. Randomly Santa introduces a gift box on reels 2 and 4. When this happens the gift box opens to reveal the bonus credits won by the player. The Free Gift Bonus cannot be won in the free spins round.

Santa's Wild Ride is a 243 Ways slot game. Microgaming is releasing more and more of its slot games in this format, signifying its popularity at online casinos. What this means is that there are no defined paylines, but like symbols appearing from left to right anywhere on successive reels result in a payout. Players can choose up to five coins of denomination of 0.01, 0.02 or 0.05. The total bet per spin is automatically fixed at 30 times the line bet. Santa's Wild Ride can be played in the Expert Mode, which offers a convenient auto play feature.

Microgaming is one online gaming software provider that does not fail to release a new slot game for Christmas. Last year it released Scrooge and the year before that it released Deck the Halls. Santa's Wild Ride has gone live at all Microgaming online casinos. CasinoAdvisor recommends Jackpot City, Lucky Nugget and Spin Palace.
