The Naughty List Slot by RealTime Gaming

Three Naughty List scrolls anywhere on the reels pay 2x, 10x, or 500x total bet depending on count, and then the screen cuts to a pick round. Up to 20 wrapped presents sit in front of you. Each one reveals either a credit prize, a multiplier bump, or a Naughty List symbol. The round keeps going, and keeps paying, until you've uncovered two Naughty List symbols. Those two close the pick and throw you directly into the Santastic Free Spins. Five spins, no retrigger option, but the reel strips are reloaded with extra Santa wilds and extra scrolls for the duration. The pick-into-spins chain is what makes the bonus sequence worth the wait, because every Naughty List reveal you accept during the pick is buying your way into denser free spin reels.

Santa is the stacked wild, and he only turns up on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5. Reel 1 is locked out of wild behaviour entirely, which means the leftmost position has to be a paying symbol on its own for any combo to start. When Santa does land on reels 2-5 he can fill the whole column, which with the wider 5x4 grid gives him real coverage.

Then there's the Lucky Feature, a random respin event with no trigger condition. It fires at the end of a paid base spin, hands over 5 to 10 respins, and every win inside the round can carry a multiplier up to 10x. Two progressive jackpots sit above the reels labelled MINOR and MAJOR, dropping at random on any paid spin with no symbol requirement. Demo meters sat around $580 and $1,330.

The cabinet is full holiday kitsch with a wink. A painted North Pole village sits behind the reels, the card values are wrapped up as presents with colourful ribbons, and the premium symbols include Santa, a reindeer in an oval vignette, and two pin-up Mrs Claus characters leaning into the naughty angle. This is the second entry in the Naughty or Nice line, released four years after the original and a year before The Nice List followed it up.
