Krampus by Spinmatic
Provider: Spinmatic | Reels: 5 × 3 | Paylines: 20 fixed | RTP: 96.00% | Volatility: Medium–High
Krampus takes the dark folklore tradition of Christmas — where Krampus, the horned demon companion of Saint Nicholas, punishes the naughty — and builds a genuinely atmospheric slot around it. Snow-covered mountains, gnarled trees, lantern light, and the foreboding figure of Krampus himself fill the visual environment. The game delivers medium-to-high volatility with a Krampus Wild feature that dramatically expands wild coverage during key moments, and free spins with enhanced mechanics that capture the intensity of the legend.

Krampus Wild Feature
The Krampus Wild is the game's signature mechanic. When it lands on specific reels (2, 3, or 4 depending on configuration), it expands to cover the entire reel — all 3 positions become Krampus Wilds for that spin evaluation.
Wild Scenario | Effect |
|---|---|
Krampus Wild on reel 3 | Full reel 3 wild — all paylines through reel 3 benefit |
Krampus Wild on reels 2 + 3 | Two full wild reels — maximised payline coverage |
Stacked Krampus (2+ on same reel) | Expands to cover full reel regardless of position |
Expanding + multiplier win | During Free Spins, expansions apply alongside multipliers |
Free Spins Feature
Scatter Count | Free Spins Awarded |
|---|---|
3 Scatters | 10 Free Spins |
4 Scatters | 15 Free Spins |
5 Scatters | 20 Free Spins |
During Free Spins:
Krampus Wild expansion applies on all eligible reels (potentially reels 2, 3, and 4)
A win multiplier builds with each successive winning spin — earlier spins build the multiplier that later spins inherit
Landing 3+ scatters during Free Spins retriggers additional spins
The dark visual effects intensify — Krampus animations become more elaborate during the bonus
Gamble Feature
After any winning spin, the optional Gamble feature appears:
Option | Correct Answer | Result |
|---|---|---|
Colour | Red / Black | Win × 2 |
Suit | Hearts / Diamonds / Clubs / Spades | Win × 4 |
Incorrect guess forfeits the win. Multiple consecutive stages available up to a game-set maximum.
