Vegas Hot - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

Wazdan is a well-respected global game developer. Vegas Hot joins the many Wazdan free play slots available here at Slots Temple and while it doesn’t have the novelty value of a similarly fruit-based game such as Wazdan's Infinity Hero slot, it does attempt to replicate the casino experience we expect from a luxury themed slot.

Vegas Hot uses a standard 5x3 grid with just five paylines - three horizontal and two diagonal from corner to corner. The minimum coin size is 0.02 and the maximum is 20. There are eight symbols: the lucky seven, bar, watermelon, lemon, plum, orange, bell and cherries.

Theme, graphics and soundtrack

What you see is what you get with Vegas Hot. It is the simplest format imaginable, with the big, bright symbols the most basic of representations and the animation extremely limited. The background is an abstract field of gently revolving circles and the neon look of the grid is cheesily traditional. The sound effects used when the reels are in motion are very authentic and the whole thing is accompanied by an unashamedly easy-listening electronic four-beat confection that is pure muzak, without any attempt to contribute to the drama. Whether you like the look and sound will depend very much on personal taste, but be prepared for an experience that is worlds away from most contemporary online slots.

Vegas Hot RTP and variance

Vegas Hot has an RTP of 96.05 per cent, which is perfectly acceptable for an online slot. The variance is medium.

How to play Vegas Hot

1. Click the spin button to start playing using the current total bet value. 
2. Go to the settings menu, which is denoted by three horizontal lines, to change settings including full-screen mode, space bar to start, energy-saving mode, advanced or standard gaming, and big win presentation.
3. Press the stop button to stop the reels at any time during the spin to see the outcome. 
4. Press ‘autoplay’ to access the autoplay settings menu, which will enable you to set various parameters to apply during autoplay. You can select the number of spins and set autoplay to stop at a specified win level, when a single win exceeds your chosen amount, or when your balance increases or decreases by set amounts.
5. Switch between normal and fast play using the tortoise/hare/horse button. If you use fast mode repeatedly, you will be prompted to press the space bar for ultra-high-speed.
6. Click on a bet value button to change the bet value; alternatively, use the + and - buttons.
7. The active counters display the current win and the current bet in cash.
8. All wins are paid out on landing combinations of the same symbol on the active line. Each new game costs one stake.
9. A wall (3x3) of the same symbol - lemon, plum, orange and bell - will double the current win.

Vegas Hot bonus features

Gamble 

This feature makes it possible to double every win. Once the gamble feature has been activated, the player has the following choices:

1. The player may collect the winnings and exit the gamble feature.
2. The player may collect the winnings and continue to use the gamble feature with the remaining half of the winnings.
3. The player may continue using the gamble feature using all the winnings by selecting one of the two available symbols.

Once the player has selected a symbol, the game will perform an automatic draw to choose the winning symbol. The player may exit the gamble feature at the end of each round. If the player should lose, the win value specified in the current win display is forfeited and the player is returned to the base game. There is a total of seven rounds in the gamble feature.

Vegas Hot review: our verdict

Wazdan should be given credit for being audacious enough to develop a slot as simple as Vegas Hot. It is certainly true to say that it is a significant departure from games that use complex themes and narratives to bolster the player experience. Even the majority of other retro games based on the classic symbols of the one-armed bandit tend to throw in a few twists that mostly take advantage of the flexibility of the online platform. Vegas Hot is one of the closest online slots to a simple fruit machine that you are likely to find. How well this suits you is going to depend on what you have come to expect and whether you want a break from Classical Greece, Ancient China or hobbit clones. Its limitations are part of its appeal; however, don’t expect lots of extra features, as they simply don’t exist.
