Big Vegas

Every now and then we simply need to take a break from all the bombastic, movie blockbuster-based slot games and go back to the basics. If you think it’s easy to make a traditional video slot that’s going to appeal to a wide audience, think twice. 

Luckily enough, the fine chaps at Bally Technologies know how it’s done. The Big Vegas online slot game is a fine example of a traditional game taken to new extremes with plenty of flair and charisma. 

The masters of this trade have taken the original, land-based slot inspired game concept and basically reinvented the thing with massively addictive gameplay, awesome graphics, and bonuses that are beyond cool.

Let’s check what’s really under the hood!

Theme

The glitzy glamour of Las Vegas is what’s it all about here. The very moment you load the game, you will be greeted by neon lights, martinis, and rolling dice. The reels are semi-transparent and placed against a colorful backdrop which basically shows the neon sign “Welcome to Las Vegas”.

Part of the screen that has all the buttons lined up appears as if it’s been made out of solid gold, and adds a touch of glamour.

When you take a look at the symbols, you will be notice that the usual batch of lower value ones comes in the form of letters A, J, K, and Q, along with the number 10, all dressed up in different colors and lightbulbs.

Besides these, you will also find cocktails, burning slot machines, a deck of cards, a pair of dice, and other similar antics.

All in all, it’s a well-executed theme, that really shows you what’s it like to be in Vegas.

Betting Options and Other Functions

Before setting off on your next Strip adventure, let us first get you well acquainted with all the options and functions featured in the game.

There are 40 fixed pay-lines spread across the usual five reels. You can’t adjust the amount of coins you place on each pay-line, but the coin size can range anywhere from 0.01 to 3.75, so the maximum bet amounts to 150.00.

We didn’t like the fact that there is no max bet function, and the inclusion of an auto play would’ve been rather nice, but on the other hand, we need to compliment a relatively high RTP of 94.05%!

Features

The wild can be landed on the second and the fourth reel, where it substitutes for all other symbols except for the scatter.

If you land three or more scatters on the second, third, and fourth reel, you will be awarded with free spins, a multiplier starting with the factor 3 and a possibility of landing an additional directional wild on the middle reel!

Our Take on Big Vegas

It takes a lot of nerve to bring out a traditional game that’s based on Las Vegas and make it addictive! Big Vegas is an amazing slot that looks good, offers quite generous bonus features and gives plenty of opportunities to score big wins!
