Spina Zonke – Santa’s Village
Everything that you need to know about Hollywoodbets' Spina Zonke Game, Santa's Village. Leave out the treats and put the kids to bed, Santa's visiting tonight!
Deck the halls!
Santa’s Village is a highly unconventional game that employs some interesting features but does not make use of a traditional payline system. Instead, players are rewarded horizontally. This meant that you need to get combinations of between three and five symbols on adjacent reels in order to win.
You needn’t worry about left to right or right to left, all that matters are horizontal lines of symbols across the reels.
First Glance
There are no prizes for guessing that this is a Christmas-themed game. However, don’t fall into the trap of thinking that this game should only be played during the festive season!
The game makes use of a vibrant colour palette for the playing area, which includes beautifully designed symbols and more of a muted look for the background. The soundtrack is as you’d expect it to be for a Christmas game.
The symbols that you’re going to want to look out for in this game are the wrapped gift (wild) and the Santa (which triggers the feature – more on this later).

Unwrap a great feature
Players will love this feature! It is triggered by any win derived from two matched symbols featuring a Santa. Once triggered, Santa will make his way around the on-screen map, delivering presents to you every time he reaches a new building, indicated by the large markers on the map.
This event can be triggered repeatedly. When Santa makes his way around the map, there are a few important things to remember:
- He can’t walk back to the last occupied spot
- In the event more than one direction is available, Santa will pick a single direction at random.
Take a look at the below images to learn about what features unlock whenever Santa visits a certain building:
Santa Free Games
12 free games are awarded every time Santa delivers a present to one of the buildings shown above. During these free games, the Santa symbol is a substitute for all other symbols and is guaranteed to appear at least once on every spin but not on adjacent reels.
Whenever the Santa Symbol appears in a winning combination, it will expand to cover all positions on the reel before the spin pays out.
Sleigh Free Games
During this particular feature, 12 free games are awarded to the player. Here, Santa’s sleigh will fly around the reels delivering between 2 and 4 extra wild symbols.
Sticky Re-Spins
Once again, 12 free games will be awarded. During this feature, any winning combination will award two sticky re-spins and an extra free game. Your winning combos will stick on the reels while sticky re-spin are active and will be cleared once the re-spins have completed.
