About Vegas Night Life Slot
Theme, Symbols and PaytableÂ
In Autumn 2020 NetEnt follow up the success of summer slots like Disco Danny and Cash Noire with this Vegas-themed blockbuster featuring big win potential via the jackpot features.
The backdrop to the reels in Vegas Night Life is a captivating image of the Las Vegas strip, featuring a series of iconic venues. The reel set consists of 5 reels, 3 rows, and 20 fixed paylines with the mega jackpot balance taking center stage and Midi and Mini jackpots positioned on either side of the reels. Overall the vibe is a night out in the city of sin, artistically created through the minimalistic elements, proving that sometimes less can be more.
Symbols on the reels carry through the images of wealth and glamour. The low paying icons are the card suits: hearts, clubs, diamonds, and spades. The premium symbols are depicted by the purple Rolex, the green emerald ring, expensive champagne, and the sports car which is the most lucrative high-value symbol in the game. Landing this 3, 4, or 5 times results in 4, 8, or 15x your bet.
The scatters and wilds are encased in casino chips and perform the usual functions – scatters are needed to trigger features like free spins whilst the wilds sub in for all other symbols to create winning lines.
RTP, Variance, Payouts, and Stake Limits
The official RTP for this game is 96.0%. It is worth noting that the game takes 3.7% of every wager to fund the progressive jackpot which makes the true RTP of the game 93.5%. This is normal for progressives. Las Vegas Night Life is described as a medium variance slot by the developer and the minimum stake value is just 20p.Technically, the top payout for a spin is 900x the stake if the free spins feature is activated. However, since this slot features a progressive jackpot, it is possible to score a much higher payout through the Mini, Midi and Progressive prizes.
Gameplay and FeaturesÂ
As far as gameplay and features go, it might initially seem complex but once you’ve turned the reels a few times and have learned the ropes, playing Vegas Night Life becomes a piece of cake.
What you should know is that the bonus features of this game are activated with scatter symbols. Three scatter symbols turn into Pick Me symbols that trigger other special features such as the Instant Win Feature, Free Spins, and Cash Stackers. Furthermore, more than three scatter symbols will increase the payouts received from the special feature that is selected.
Cash Stacker
Once this feature is activated, cash stacker symbols will be the only ones to appear on the reels.
Each symbol is assigned a random value from 0.25x to 15x the bet. These symbols move to the lowest unoccupied space on the reels and essentially remain there until the feature has ended. Cash Stacker starts with three spins and can be reset if another Cash Stacker symbol ends up on the reels. If any of the rows between 2 and 5 are completely populated by this symbol, the values of the symbols are multiplied by the number of the row e.g. 2x, 3x, 4x, or 5x.
Instant Win
When you activate this feature, you will be awarded a random win from 7.5x to 250x your bet.
The win can either be multiplied by 2x once or twice depending on whether the feature was activated with 4 or 5 scatter symbols.
Mega, Midi, and Mini Jackpots
To win the progressive Mega jackpot, you need to fill row three with Cash Stacker symbols.
If reel two is completely populated by these symbols, a mini jackpot of 10x the bet will be paid out. If the Cash Stacker symbols are on reel three, the midi jackpot will award you with 30x your bet. Further to this, the values for each jackpot will be displayed in the main game, in free spins, and the Cash Stacker feature at all times.
Free spins and Bonuses
There is also the possibility of landing free spins the old-fashioned way, and that is with the use of scatter symbols.
To determine the number of free spins depends on how many scatter symbols appear on the reels. With this feature, there’s a 3x multiplier applied to all payline wins.

Vegas Night Life certainly has all the elements to make it a crowd-pleaser once it is officially released.
The features and payout potential make it perfect for jackpot-chasing players as well as casual slots fans. The idea of three jackpots is definitely the cherry on top and with a progressive jackpot in play, there’s a chance to take home some big wins, though remember that the odds for this are not stacked in your favour and its always a very lucky punter who triggers that windfall.
