XmasPop Delight Slot Review

The XmasPop Delight Slot Game

I have a soft spot for festive slots, so I was curious about XmasPop Delight from AvatarUX the moment I saw the pastel background and engraved snowflakes. The studio runs it through the GATI network, so the performance feels smooth across desktop and mobile. Instead of a standard Christmas setup with Santa front and centre, you get a glossy, candy-coloured grid backed by subtle carols and a frosty purple sky.

XmasPop Delight uses 5 reels with 3 rows at the start, which can grow up to 6 rows in the base game and 9 in free spins thanks to the PopWins engine. Ways to win range from 486 up to 59,049, and stakes stretch from 0.10 to 100 per spin. On paper you are looking at about a 20,000x max win with volatile swings and a bonus-heavy profile.

Symbols and Payouts in XmasPop Delight

In XmasPop Delight you deal with 14 regular symbols split into low, high, and a single super high icon. Wins land when three or more matching symbols appear on adjacent reels, either starting from the leftmost reel or mirroring from the right. The slot pays both ways except for five-of-a-kind lines, which only pay from the left. Every combination and value is clearly spelled out in the in-game paytable.

The low-paying symbols in XmasPop Delight are the familiar 9, 10, J, Q, K, and A. On a five symbol hit, 9 pays 0.3x your bet, 10 pays 0.6x, and J pays 1.2x. Q steps this up to 0.4x, K pays 0.8x, and A caps the card set at 1.6x. These icons may look tame, but with PopWins they can chain nicely across expanded reels.

The premium symbols in XmasPop Delight cover juicy Grapes and Watermelon paying up to 2.5x, Orange and Horseshoe paying up to 4x, then Four-leaf Clover at up to 5x, Bell at up to 6x, and Diamond topping out at 8x for five. During free spins a Christmas Ball joins the paytable as a super high symbol, paying 4x, 7.5x, or a punchy 15x your stake for a five-of-a-kind. There are no wilds or scatters in this setup.

XmasPop Delight Slot Bonus Features

The PopWins feature in XmasPop Delight drives most of the excitement. After each paid win, the winning symbols pop and two new symbols fall into every popped position, increasing reel height. This repeats as long as new wins form. In the base game the reels can stretch to six rows, while during free spins they can hit nine rows. Filling all reels to six rows in the base game triggers free spins.

Before free spins start in XmasPop Delight you can spin a Gamble Wheel. Taking the safe option gives 5 spins, while successful gambles move you to 8 or 12, with a golden slice that throws in 4 extra spins. Free spins open on a 2x multiplier that rises by one after each PopWins sequence and never resets, and you may also buy the feature for 75x stake.

How to Win at XmasPop Delight Slot

In practise, winning on XmasPop Delight is about giving the PopWins mechanic space to breathe. I set a stake between 0.10 and 100, hit spin or autoplay, and look for chains of three or more matching symbols on adjacent reels from either side. As reels grow, ways to win increase up to 59,049, so extended runs of pops are where I have seen the balance climb fastest.

XmasPop Delight Slot RTP & Volatility

RTP on XmasPop Delight depends on where you play. The figures I have seen are 90.5%, 94%, and around 96.1%, all within the range quoted by the developer and partner sites. That variable setup means I always check the information screen at my chosen casino before spinning, as the higher RTP versions offer far better long-term value when you are grinding through a volatile PopWins slot like this.

Officially, XmasPop Delight is often classed as low volatility, yet on longer sessions it has felt more like the high side to me, with stretches of small pops broken by heavy bonus hits. The maximum win hovers around 20,000x stake, which is serious potential for a Christmas release. That payout ceiling pairs well with the non-resetting multiplier in free spins, which can climb sharply when the reels stay tall.

The Final Verdict on XmasPop Delight

My verdict on XmasPop Delight after plenty of spins is that it nails the core PopWins thrill while wrapping it in a cosy festive skin. The pastel visuals, frost edging, and gentle carols set the mood, while the pay-both-ways layout and growing multiplier keep things tense. It is not the flashiest Christmas slot around, but the gameplay loop is satisfying and the win potential justifies the occasional rough patch.
