Epic Holiday Party Slots

Whenever someone invites you to a party, it leads to one question - what are you going to wear?!

Fortunately, you won't need to worry about dressing up to impress when you attend the Epic Holiday Party. Since this is a slot game, you can check it out without even leaving home. The holiday theme is obvious enough thanks to the title, but the epic nature of this game may not be quite as clear. We'll reveal why you should check out this game during our review.

Who does the party invite come from?

RTG - also known by their full name, Realtime Gaming - is behind this invitation. They welcome you to visit this slot to see what you think.

No charge to attend the demo version

There is no entry fee for this version of the party, so rock up today and see what you think of it.

A tale of two themes

Did you think this was simply a party-based slot? Not so… when you load the game, you'll see plenty of people in festive Santa hats on the reels. The backdrop also suggests we are close to celebrating the New Year, and we can reveal that you get both those themes in one in this game.

A gloriously colorful design

Color is an important feature in lots of slots, especially those we're reviewed from RTG. It plays an even bigger role here, thanks to the vibrant appearance of the game. We think that is suited to the Christmas and New Year theme in action.

Getting underway with the Epic Holiday Party slot game

Five reels load ready to spin, each offering three symbols. The game also comes with four progressive jackpots, stacked atop one another next to the final reel. On the other side of the reel set, next to the first reel, you'll see four game characters. We'll explain more about those shortly.

Just as two themes mix into one here, we also get two wild symbols. The first one is the bag of gold. This can show up on any of the middle three reels. It won't substitute for the scattered Christmas tree, nor does it replace the snow globe, which is the other wild in play.

The snow globe wild is restricted to the middle reel, but it does involve multipliers to make it worthwhile having around.

No paylines at this party

No, you've got 243 ways to pick up wins instead.

Choose your wagers carefully

We say this because there are several ways to play the game. The minimum spin bet is just eight cents, but this assumes you are not playing for any of the jackpots. This is where those characters come in. By selecting one of the four characters, you'll open the path to one or more jackpots.

Look at your bet amount when you select each character. The relevant prizes activate too, so you can see which bet you're playing with and which prizes are up for grabs. We know the odds of picking up any size of progressive jackpot are long, but if you like playing those games, it's worth experimenting with bet size and other info before you move across to the real version of the game.

Make sure you read the paytable

Whatever you want to know about this game, you're sure to find the details in there. As there are different jackpots and betting amounts here, it makes it even more important that you try the demo first and view the table there.

Are there any bonuses at this party?

Sadly, no.

You may find some free spins though

And the Christmas tree is the way to reach them. Look for three trees and you'll receive 12 spins in return. All the spins can have wilds showing up, so they'll help you increase your chances of finding some prizes.

RTG hasn't revealed the return to player info here

That is quite common for their games though, so it may not be a surprise.

Our rating for this party invite

Epic Holiday Party has plenty to live up to with its epic title. Does it deliver? We think it does, especially as there are lots of jackpots and special symbols to watch. There is plenty to like here, but we personally wouldn't pay more to try and net a jackpot. As a basic eight-cent slot at its lowest level, it's still worth playing. It also deserves a 7.5 out of 10 score.

How long before those jackpot winners begin to appear?

There is no way of figuring this out, of course, but we do know that with four progressives to try for, lots of players will want to bet more to try and get them. We'll let you know when someone manages to scoop one.

Play the demo to find out more

The demo is even more important in this case, as you can work out how those jackpots and extra bets fit with your budget. You can also see how the special icons can help you find the path through to some wins and the free spins.

The ideal real slot to play in December

And maybe on New Year too, thanks to the mix of themes! You'll find this one landing at RTG casinos, so check it out at your favorite site.

Play at this party on mobile platforms as well

Android and iOS handsets are good to use for this purpose, as the game was designed to work on both.
