What this pokie is
Boomerang Pokies sends you out and back: read Gates of Santa here, play it at Here2Win Casino, return to the same URL if you want the figures again. The pokie itself does not boomerang a loss into a win.
If 96.07% is the figure you came for, it is printed above and in the fact list. Do not average one short session against a published RTP.
Before the first spin, use the fact list and the pros and cons. Neither one adds a star rating. Gates of Santa is the TrueLab pokie, and the reels run at Here2Win Casino.

More from TrueLab
Who it suits
A very-high volatility pokie suits a short session with a small A$ stake. The balance tends to move in lumps, so Gates of Santa is a poor place to try to win a loss back.
Printed pace, not a hunch, is why the card is on the high volatility list.
How a session behaves
Coming back to Gates of Santa later does not make it due. Keep the A$ stake where you left the rule.
A normal session on Gates of Santa is a run of spins you can afford to lose, not a plan to clear a welcome offer. Any match lives inside the Here2Win Casino account.
Questions
Can I play Gates of Santa at Here2Win Casino from Australia?
Yes. Boomerang Pokies links Gates of Santa to Here2Win Casino for Australian players. The button on this page stays on boomerangpokies.com and then opens the pokie at Here2Win Casino.
Is the RTP of Gates of Santa on this page?
96.07% is the RTP printed for Gates of Santa. Boomerang Pokies does not adjust that number and does not promise it over one visit to Here2Win Casino.
Is Gates of Santa a high variance pokie?
Gates of Santa is marked very-high volatility. On a very-high volatility pokie the balance usually moves in lumps, so the stake in A$ matters more than the theme.
Which studio built Gates of Santa?
The provider is TrueLab. Other TrueLab pokies on Boomerang Pokies sit on the same provider page if you want a neighbour title.
Where does the A$ stake actually go?
Boomerang Pokies is a catalogue. The stake in A$ is placed at Here2Win Casino after you follow the play button. This page does not hold a balance.
Can I open Gates of Santa on a phone?
Punters in Perth mostly open Gates of Santa from a phone. Boomerang Pokies does not ship a separate app. The button hands the pokie to Here2Win Casino.
What currency is the stake on Gates of Santa?
At Here2Win Casino the stake for Australian players is in A$. Boomerang Pokies does not convert it and does not print a minimum, because the minimum is set inside the game.
Can I try Gates of Santa here without an account?
This page is the written card. It does not run the reels, free or paid. Play happens at Here2Win Casino.
Does Boomerang Pokies score Gates of Santa?
No score is printed on purpose. A star would be a house opinion. The page sticks to the studio, the published RTP when the card has one, and the volatility label.
Can Gates of Santa be due for a win?
Nothing on this page is a timer for a feature. If the last session went badly, the next one does not owe you the difference.
How old do I have to be to play Gates of Santa?
18+. Boomerang Pokies is a catalogue, and Here2Win Casino is where the session runs. Do not open the pokie if you are under 18.
Where does the click on Gates of Santa go?
The click stays on boomerangpokies.com first, then opens Gates of Santa at Here2Win Casino. The partner address is not printed in the article.
How many TrueLab pokies are in this catalogue?
Use the provider link under the title. That list is the same studio, not a random mix, and each title opens at Here2Win Casino.
Is Gates of Santa different in another Australian city?
No. Perth is named because readers are there. It is not a setting inside Gates of Santa, and it does not change the RTP.
Will I see a bonus figure for Gates of Santa here?
No figure is invented here. If Here2Win Casino shows a welcome offer, it shows it inside the account, with its own terms. Read them there before you opt in.
Is this the same machine I would find in a club?
No. Gates of Santa on Boomerang Pokies is an online pokie opened at Here2Win Casino. It is not a machine on a club floor and it does not carry a local sticker.
When should I close Gates of Santa?
Set an A$ limit and a clock before the first spin, then close the game when either one is reached. Gates of Santa will not close itself.
Is the hit ratio the same as the RTP?
The hit ratio on the card is how often a spin returns something, not how much it returns. It is not the RTP, and it is not a promise for the next hour.
Why does Gates of Santa have a pros and cons list?
The block is a reading aid for Gates of Santa, not a rating. Pros are facts on the card or about the catalogue. Cons are the gaps and the limits, including that this page is not the cashier.
Which part of the Gates of Santa page is the preview?
Start with the short answer under the title, then the fact list. Both should agree: studio TrueLab, and RTP only when the card has one. The pros and cons repeat that split in plain lines.
Will a shorter name still open Gates of Santa?
This page is only Gates of Santa. The play button follows that name, not a shorter guess.
How many reels and paylines does Gates of Santa have?
The card does not publish a maximum win, a reel count, or a payline count. Boomerang Pokies does not guess them.
What features does the Gates of Santa card list?
Bonus Buy, Bonus Rounds, Cluster Pays and Pay Anywhere is the whole feature list for Gates of Santa. A label is not a price and not a description of the round.
Stake and the cashier
Leaving for Here2Win Casino is the payment step. Boomerang Pokies does not hold a POLi or PayID balance in between.
The rails are handled after you reach Here2Win Casino. boomerangpokies.com does not take the deposit. This page never opens a cashier.
How you open it
- Open Gates of Santa from the play button. The click stays on boomerangpokies.com, then Here2Win Casino loads the pokie.
- Set the stake in A$ before the reels move. A smaller stake just makes a very-high volatility pokie last longer.
- Stop on a clock you set in Perth, not when the pokie 'looks due'.
