Slot Summary

Christmas presentation and a substantial collection bonus meet in Santa Sphere: Hold the Spin, Gamzix's holiday take on holding prizes through respins. Its baubles participate in the feature rather than serving only as decoration. Heap of Spheres can turn a bonus-symbol appearance into a full bonus trigger, giving the seasonal premise a specific role in play.

Features & Win Potential

Heap of Spheres adds enough bonus symbols to activate the Bonus Game when the feature occurs. It can therefore complete the trigger from a bonus-symbol appearance during either main play or free spins.

Within the bonus, special symbols can enlarge the grid, increase symbol values, or gather other values into a single prize. These effects change both the available space and the value being collected.

Free Spins Scatter Symbol Wild Symbol Medium/High Respins Bonus Game Symbols collection (Energy)Additional Free Spins Expanding Symbols Bonus symbols Hold and Win

Bonus & Free Spins

Hold the Spin retains landed prize symbols while the bonus continues. Expanding rows add space to the collection board, so the round's capacity can change after it has started.

How this works

Each simulated spin either misses or returns a win drawn from a log-normal distribution, with the hit rate and spread set by the slot's volatility tier (Medium-High). The model is calibrated so the average return equals this slot's published RTP (96.05%), with wins capped at its top multiplier (5,000×).

This is a simplified, parametric model of the game's math — not its real paytable. It exists to make the house edge visible over many sessions, so the numbers above are averages across thousands of runs, never a forecast of one.

This is math, not a prediction. Real sessions vary wildly, and no strategy changes a game's built-in house edge. Play for fun, set limits, and never bet more than you can afford to lose.
