Xmas Coins 2 is a festive fruit-and-coins game from Fugaso, released on 27 November 2025. It plays on a 3-reel grid with 15 fixed lines, returns 96.1% at medium-high volatility and tops out at 3,000x the bet. Four jackpots run down the left edge, and – unusually – you can watch them rescale. A City At ChristmasThe reels stand against a violet night sky over a city street, snow falling, a hot-air balloon drifting past on the right and a lit Christmas tree at the foot of the frame. A heap of gold coins spills out of the bottom-left corner with a BUY button sitting on it. The symbols are Fugaso’s standard fruit set: plums, oranges, a watermelon, grapes, cherries, a BAR BAR plate, golden bells and a red 777. A blue ice orb turns up among them as the special. Three Reels, Three Of A KindThe paytable has a single column, which tells you the grid is three reels wide. At the 45.00 bet our session ran at: 777 (wild) – 1,350.00, or 30x The wild is the top-paying symbol in the game as well as the substitute – three times the bells and thirty times the stake. Everything below the BAR collapses fast: the cheap fruit returns your money and the cherries return half of it. The rule under the 777 is stated plainly: “Substitutes all symbols with exception of Bonus symbols and Super Bonus symbols.” Two special types are excluded, and those are what the coin round is built from. The Jackpots Rescale, And You Can See ItThis is worth documenting because most games leave you to take it on trust. We played at two different stakes and the plaques moved with them: At a 50.00 bet – GRAND 50,000.00, MAJOR 5,000.00, MINOR 1,500.00, MINI 750.00 Every figure fell by exactly a tenth when the stake did. So these are multiples rather than pooled cash: 1,000x, 100x, 30x and 15x at any stake you choose. Nothing is gained by betting small and nothing is lost by betting large – which is the opposite of how a network progressive behaves. Coins Between One And Eight Times The BetThe coins that land carry values stamped across them. At the 45.00 bet ours read 45.00, 90.00 and 360.00 – 1x, 2x and 8x. At 50.00 we saw 50.00, 100.00, 200.00 and 350.00, which is the same 1x, 2x, 4x and 7x spread. A single 8x coin is worth less than three sevens on a line, so no coin here is a result on its own. It is the board filling that matters. The Boost FeatureBelow the paytable sits a section headed BOOST FEATURE, illustrated with the blue ice orb and a star carrying the number 25. Boost is Fugaso’s house mechanic across its coin games, and it works by summing values rather than multiplying them – coin amounts and jackpot plaques landing in the same round are added together. On a fifteen-position board with a Grand worth 1,000x, that addition is the route from a good round to the game’s 3,000x ceiling. What The Spins PaidThree results. A board of plums across the middle rows returned 250.00 at a 50.00 bet – 5x the stake. A screen with coins on the left reel and fruit around them paid 350.00, or 7x. The best was 1,395.00 at the 45.00 bet – 31x – which is almost exactly the value of three wild sevens. Our balance ran from 2,950 down to zero at one point and back to 1,395, which on a 45-to-50 stake is a short, steep session. 96.1% At Medium-High VolatilityThe return is around average. The medium-high rating fits a game where fifteen lines across three reels produce frequent small wins – the cheap fruit at 1x, the cherries at half – while the four plaques and the coin round hold everything of consequence. With a Grand at 1,000x against a 3,000x ceiling, the top jackpot is a third of the maximum. The remaining two-thirds is what the Boost feature adds on top, which is a reasonable structure: the plaque is reachable, and the ceiling is what happens when the plaque arrives on an already-good board. Fifteen Lines On Fifteen SquaresThe layout is worth a moment. Three reels of five rows is fifteen positions, and the game runs fifteen fixed lines across them. What that means in practice is that almost every symbol on the board is part of at least one live path. On a five-reel game a symbol on the middle reel can easily do nothing; here it is much harder for a position to be wasted. That is why the cheap fruit can afford to pay only 1x – it lands as part of something far more often than a five-reel paytable would allow. What The Bet ChangesEverything scales, and we verified it directly. Our screenshots were taken at 45.00 and 50.00, and every figure on screen – paytable, coins and jackpot plaques – moved proportionally between the two. The multiples never move. More From FugasoFugaso builds a great many coin games on the same engine and the differences are usually one mechanic wide. Electric Coins runs the same four plaques on a lightning-tile board, Olympus Mania Hot Bonus adds a third buy tier with written guarantees, and Trump It Coin Link Xmas shrinks the board to nine squares. Who It Is ForXmas Coins 2 is for players who want a Christmas coin game with no surprises in the maths. The jackpots are plain multiples and we watched them rescale between two stakes, so there is no small-stake advantage to work out and no pooled pot to chase. The wild at 30x gives the three-reel base game a genuine top end, the coins run a sensible 1x to 8x, and the Boost feature adds rather than multiplies. What you do not get is a big base game: the cheap fruit hands your stake back and the cherries hand back half. All six casinos we checked carry it. You can try this game on SunClub Online Casino.
