Santa's Workshop Mines Slot by IGT

Tap a green wrapped gift box. If you uncover a teddy bear, your prize bumps up and you can cash out or keep going. Uncover the Jester instead and the round is done, the running prize gone. The 25-tile workshop grid only asks one decision before the first tap: how many Jesters you want hidden in there.

You set that count yourself, picking 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10 or 15 mines. One mine means 24 safe tiles and small, incremental teddy values. Fifteen mines means a 10-out-of-25 survival rate per pick, and every teddy you do find is worth dramatically more. The volatility is a slider you control with that single dropdown. Each successful pick reveals the next teddy's value before you commit, so the cash-out call is always informed. You know what you stand to add, you know how many safe tiles are left, you decide whether to push.

The published ceiling is 28,200x your coin value. That's the maximum liability IGT actually prints in the marketing sheet, which is unusual for a Mines title and especially unusual given how vague most picker games leave their cap. The round ends in four ways: you hit a Jester, you cash out, you uncover every teddy on the board, or the running prize bumps into that 28,200x cap and the game auto-stops the round.

This is a holiday reskin of IGT's Cash Eruption Mines, same engine and same paytable template, with candy-cane striped columns where the original had lava fissures and gift boxes where it had stone tiles. A miniature brass conveyor belt and steam machine sit to the right of the grid, the gold scroll logo wears a Christmas wreath as a crown, and the unrevealed tiles are bright green parcels tied with red bows. The teddies, when you find them, have the multiplier value stamped right on their bellies. For another IGT picker with a wildly different vibe and a proper ladder mechanic instead of open cash-out, the fruit-themed Fruit Hunt Super Mines is the sibling.
