In the middle of the 19th century, popular writer Charles Dickens’ novel A Christmas Carol was published. It told the story of the grouchy and stingy Ebenezer Scrooge. One Christmas Eve he was paid a visit by the ghost of Jacob Marley and the Ghosts of Christmases Past, Present and Yet to Come. They changed his attitude and left him full of the Christmas spirit. The leading software developer Playtech has created an online slot machine based on this novel. The introductory video clip presents the essence of the novel through an animated scene.

The reels are set in the Scrooge home where he is shown sitting on an armchair in a contemplative mood. Scrooge is the wild symbol and also offers a jackpot line payout of 10,000 coins. To top the benefits, Scrooge starts paying out when two symbols appear aligned from left to right. The other thematic symbols include the Ghosts of Christmas and Tiny Tim, another important character from the novel. The chained ghost of Marley is the scatter symbol. It awards scatter payouts when two or more appear anywhere on the reels. The animations are very appropriate. Scrooge is seen kissing a gold coin. The Ghost of Christmas Present can be seen in a cheerful mood, imbibing wine from a horn. The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come is shown as Death implying that if everyone becomes like Scrooge then the spirit of Christmas will die.

Three or more Marley symbols scattered on the reels activates the free spins. The player chooses one of the symbols to reveal the number of free spins awarded. All line and scatter payouts in the free spins are tripled. The free spins can be triggered indefinitely. Three or more clock symbols appearing consecutively on an active payline from the left reel activate the Ghost of Christmas bonus. One bonus game belonging to one of the Ghosts of Christmas is randomly triggered. Only one bonus game can be triggered in a spin. All games are second screen pick objects type of games. The number of picks is equal to the number of triggering symbols. The picks reveal bonus credits that are totaled and credited to the player. The Ghost of Christmas Past takes players to a childhood school scene of Scrooge. The Ghost of Christmas Present is a present Christmas scene. The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come goes into the future to a graveyard scene.

Ghosts of Christmas is a 20 payline slot game. The line bet varies from 0.20 credits to 500 credits. The maximum total bet can go up to a whopping 10,000 credits. This slot machine is now live at select Playtech online casinos like Casino Tropez.
