The leading online casino software provider Rival Gaming has launched a winter theme video slot titled Ice Picks that has nothing to do with Christmas. In the introductory clip a man jumps out of a helicopter on snowy peaks and makes his way to an ice cave. Pulsating background music can be heard throughout.

The Ice Pick online slot starts differently from the other Rival Gaming video slots. On activating the spin button the symbols completely disappear for a while revealing the ice cave in the background, and then drop one by one from the top. The usual simulation of the reel spinning is done away with. The high paying symbols are items frozen in ice blocks. The highest fixed jackpot of 9,000 coins is the treasure chest. The other items encased in ice are idol, bracelet, skull and hammer. These symbols participate in the Ice Drop feature. Whenever three or more like frozen symbols appear, they will shatter and the symbols above will drop down to take their place. The low paying symbols are the gear used by the man such as goggles, helmet, boots and ice pick. Whenever these symbols appear in winning combinations the animations show the man making his way through the ice terrain.

The crate is the wild symbol. It appears only on reels 1, 3 and 5. The meter is the scatter symbol. It does not offer scatter payouts as in some other Rival Gaming online slots games. However, it does award free spins. When three scatter symbols appear anywhere on the reels then the player is awarded 5 free spins. When four scatter symbols appear anywhere on the reels then the player is awarded 10 free spins. When five scatter symbols appear anywhere on the reels then the player is awarded 25 free spins. All payouts during the free spins are tripled.

The defining feature of this Rival Gaming video slot is the Ice Picks bonus game on the second screen. It is triggered when three map symbols appear anywhere on the reels. The players are taken to the ice cave where precious stones of different types are frozen in ice blocks. The players are given five ice picks and can break one block with each pick. Bonus points are awarded according to the treasures found in the blocks.

Ice Picks has 20 paylines and players can wager up to 10 coins on each payline. The coin size varies from 0.01 to 0.25. The largest line bet works out to 2.50 credits and the largest line payout is 22,500.00 credits. Ice Picks can be played at all Rival Gaming online casinos. CasinoAdvisor recommends Ruby Royal Casino.
