Fruit Shop Christmas Edition slot review

Fruit Shop Christmas Edition is NetEnt’s snowy reworking of its Fruit Shop slot, released in December 2015. It keeps the original’s five reels, three rows and 15 paylines. There is no scatter: free spins come straight from ordinary fruit wins, and every win in those spins is doubled.

How Fruit Shop Christmas Edition plays

This is a simple, quick game by modern standards. The reels sit in a market stall dusted with snow, and the paying symbols split into two groups: five fruits (cherries, plums, lemons, oranges and watermelons) at the top, and A, K, Q, J and 10 below them. Cherries are the only symbol that pays for two in a row as well as three, four or five.

The Fruit Shop logo is the wild. It stands in for the other symbols, and any win it helps to complete is doubled, both in the base game and in free spins.

How the free spins work

Most slots wait for scatters; this one pays out free spins with fruit line wins instead. A win made of fruit symbols adds free spins on top of its cash prize, from one spin for a two-cherry win up to five spins for five of a kind.

Once the spins start, all wins are doubled, and a wild in a free spins win lifts it further. Fresh winning combinations during the round can add more free spins, so the feature can run on past its first award.

Frequently asked questions

Does Fruit Shop Christmas Edition have a scatter?

No. Free spins are won through line wins made with the fruit symbols, so any spin with a fruit win can start them.

What does the wild do?

The Fruit Shop logo replaces other symbols and doubles any win it helps to form.

How is it different from the original Fruit Shop?

The rules follow the original. This version moves the stall into a snowy winter scene with snowmen and Christmas trees around the reels, and the original sits next to it in the tiles above.
