The glamor of Las Vegas takes center stage in Vegas Nights, the latest title to be released by Pragmatic Play. This five-reel, 25-payline slot has a higher volatility than most, perhaps as a form of homage to the extremely volatile North American gambling capital after which it’s named. Look out for the glamour girl, the highest-value gaming symbol, and the casino chips, which act as both scatter and super wild.
Theme
Legendary for its gambling and nicknamed Sin City, Las Vegas has long captured imaginations across the world. This shimmering, lawless image provides the theme for Vegas Nights: gaming symbols include a glamorous showgirl, a gleaming red car, a roulette wheel, glowing dice and a winning poker hand, and playing card symbols valued ace through jack. The black and white casino chips act as wild, while their golden brethren, appearing only on the fifth reel, act as super wild, triggering five immediate respins. Finally, the welcome to Las Vegas symbol acts as scatter – it appears only on the middle reels, but awards free spins when appearing on all three at the same time. Shining with neon, the reels stand before a night cityscape in which the Strip is lit up.
Betting Options and Functions
The 25 pay lines are fixed in Vegas Nights, but players can vary the coins to bet per line (from one to ten) as well as coin value (from 0.01 to 0.50) for an overall per spin betting range of 0.25–125.00 times the betting currency. Autoplay is available from ten to 1000 spins, which the option of skipping animated sequences to keep game momentum going. Holding down the space bar activates turbo spin to further advance the pace of the game. The overall theoretical return to player is a slightly above-average 96.03%.
Features
As befits a slot inspired by Las Vegas, there are several ways to trigger bonus features. The appearance of a super wild on the middle slot of the fifth reel triggers a delightful one: three respins where the four playing card symbols, as well as scatter, are replaced by wilds. Those three spins can be as profitable as 30 or more in base play, with none of the risk.
This game’s largest and most lucrative bonus feature remains free spins, which are awarded when the ‘Welcome to Vegas’ scatter symbol appears on all three middle reels. During the five free spins, all wild symbols receive a double or triple win multiplier. These multipliers can compound to reach win bonuses as high as 81x. Furthermore, those scatter symbols remain on the reels during free spins, and can add additional free spins to the total, without limit.
Our Take
Pragmatic Play set out to make a slot that reflects the neon glory of Las Vegas, and has succeeded. Design, detail, and play in Vegas Nights all serve to transport players to Sin City without leaving the house (or, thanks to HTML5, anywhere at all). Fortunately, profits made in this game don’t have to stay in Vegas.
