Money Sleigh Slot (Relax Gaming)

The Money Sleigh slot has 5 reels and 4 rows initially and uses a Hold & Win mechanic. With no traditional paylines or ways to win, this game is all about the bonus feature. To trigger it, you need to see 3 or more Bonus Snowglobe symbols anywhere in view.

Bets-wise, you can play Money Sleigh from as little as 10p a spin to as much as £100 per spin. As is the case with all Relax Gaming slots, use the plus and/or minus buttons to adjust your bet. Non-UK players can opt for Autoplay with unlimited auto spins along with optional loss, win and single-win limits. There is also a Turbo Mode to speed up play (again, not available in the UK).

The Money Sleight RTP rate is 96% which is exactly the average for online slot games. Relax Gaming has also created a 94% RTP version which may be used at your chosen casino or slot site (check by opening the Paytable).

Very high volatility (5/5), the hit frequency rate is 9.95%. This means you’ll trigger the Re-Spin feature every 10.05 spins on average. Finally, the Money Sleigh slot game comes with 10,000 times bet max wins. That said, the average win in the feature is 9.65 times your total bet. Below are various win probabilities:

• Big Win (15 x bet or higher win): 1 in 85 spins
• Mega Win (30 x bet or higher win): 1 in 205 spins
• Epic Win (60 x bet or higher win): 1 in 543 spins
• Explosive Win (200 x bet or higher win): 1 in 5,711 spins

With a Christmas/festive theme, the Money Sleigh slot is a festive makeover of the Money Cart 3 slot game released in April 2023. Christmas may only come once a year but it can feel like Christmas every day if the money sleigh delivers.

Cheerful and jolly, the setting is the North Pole where you’ll see Santa’s snow-covered house as well as a snowman, a full moon and the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) in the background. The train you see in the Money Train series has been replaced by Santa’s sleigh which houses the action. In terms of the soundtrack, it’s expectedly festive and upbeat.

With no regular symbols, you will see empty snow globes. The only symbol that can land is the Bonus Snow Globe with 3 or more anywhere in view activating the all-important Re-Spin feature. I go into detail below about the feature.

Money Sleigh Mobile

With Relax Gaming focusing on mobile action primarily, Money Sleigh is available to play on smartphone and tablet devices (including iOS and Android operating systems). Compatible with laptop and PC devices, a unique Portrait Mode is used when playing on a handheld device.

The Money Sleigh slot game has just the 1 bonus feature. In the Re-Spin feature, it’s all about landing various special symbols to boost your winning potential.

Re-Spin feature

The Re-Spin feature is triggered by landing 3 Bonus Snow Globe symbols anywhere on the reels. With 3 re-spins awarded, the triggering Bonus Snow Globe symbol transform into normal symbols containing bet multipliers: they also lock in position.

If new Normal Snow Globe symbol lands, the number of re-spins resets to 3. With the feature continuing until you run out of re-spins, there are several special symbols that can land to help you win more. Below is a list of all symbols you may encounter:

• Normal Snow Globe: Contains a bet multiplier between 0.1 and 1 x your total bet (1 to 10 coins).
• Gatherer: Collects all visible values on the reels and adds them to its own value.
• Gatherer-Giver: Selects 3 to 5 symbols as targets, adds their values to its own and then pays out its updated value to each of the targets.
• Helper: Doubles the values of 3 to 8 other symbols. It can act on the same symbol several times.
• Santa: Brings between 2 to 7 already used non-persistent special symbols (Gatherer, Gatherer-Giver, Helper, Super Helper or Super Giver) to life again. It can act on the same symbol several times.
• Snow Bank: Absorbs all Normal Snow Globes and removes them from the reels to make way for new symbols.
• Super Helper: Targets 1 randomly picked symbol and doubles its value from 2 to 6 times.
• Super Giver: Reveals a coin value from 5 to 100 and targets 1 randomly picked symbol, added the revealed value from 3 to 10 times.
• Eternal Gatherer: Collects all visible values on the reels and adds them to its own value at the end of that re-spin and every re-spin that follows. It doesn’t collect it’s own value though.
• Eternal Helper: Doubles the values of 3 to 8 other symbols at the end of that re-spin and every subsequent re-spin. It can act on the same symbol several times.
• Eternal Gatherer-Giver: Selects 3 to 5 symbols as targets at the end of each re-spin, adds their values to its own and pays out its updated value to each of those targets.
• Eternal Santa: Brings between 1 to 7 already used non-persistent special symbols (Gatherer, Gatherer-Giver, Helper, Super Helper or Super Giver) to life again. Same symbol can be targeted several times.
• Eternal Mystery: Transforms into a different special symbol (Gatherer, Gatherer-Giver, Helper, Super Helper or Super Giver) after every re-spin.

Furthermore, filling a reel entirely with symbols will see an extra reel opened up. This can occur twice meaning you can play with 7 rows for even more special symbols and wins. Finally, the Re-Spin feature ends when you run out of re-spins or the sum of all values reaches 100,000 coins (10,000 times your total bet).

The Money Sleigh slot is a festive makeover of the Money Cart 3 game. Aimed at UK players, the infamous Money Cart Bonus feature in Money Train 3 can be purchased outside the UK.

With Money Sleigh and Money Cart 3, you bypass the need of the bonus buy element and get straight into he action (every 10.05 spins on average). To play, land 3 or more Bonus Snow Global symbols anywhere on the reels.

As with all games in the Money Train slot series, the key is to land Eternal (or Persistent) symbols. These act on that re-spin and all re-spins that follow. I quite like the Eternal Helper symbol which doubles the values on up to 8 symbols on every re-spin.

The Eternal Gatherer symbol is quite lucrative if you have plenty of symbols on the reels. My favourite is the Santa symbol as this resurrects up to 7 already-used symbols for even more wins. If you expand the grid size for 7 rows, even more symbols can land.

With 10,000 times bet max wins, the Money Sleigh slot can see Santa comes more than just once a year. It may not be original but replacing the Money Train with Santa’s sleigh definitely works.

With regards to Christmas slot games, Money Sleigh is up in terms of win potential and playability. If you want the thrill of the bonus feature, Relax Gaming has gone much bigger in Money Train 4 which is the last in the series and comes with new special symbols and 150,000 times max win potential.
