Vegas XL Slots
It's no secret many online gamblers transitioned from real-life slots to online casinos because of the compatibility and convenience of mobile play and desktop play, and because of that, Las Vegas is still a beloved theme in the online gambling world. I've played quite a few slots in my day that seem to focus on creating a slot that can deliver a Las Vegas theme virtually, but The Vegas XL online succeeds in many ways that other slots often fail.
Theme and Format
Visually, the board is transparent and takes place around sunset. The sky is purple, and buildings and landmarks are artfully laid in the background. There are ultra-tall towers and golden skyscrapers. It looks like it's trying to mimic Las Vegas. The board itself has a sparkly-cartoon stylization that I love. The lower-paying letter symbols are blinged out in colors like green, pink, red, and gold. The picture symbols on the board include a golden vault, a private jet, a sports car, a beautiful brunette woman holding cards, and more.
The golden coin is the wild symbol, and the golden vault is the scatter symbol. The low-paying symbols are the A, J, K, Q, 9, and 10 symbols. The sound effects feature those classic satisfying slot noises, like high-pitched bells and coin sounds. The game is played on a 5x3 format and the stakes begin at 0.25 and can be increased up to 25.00 credits per spin. This game is a medium volatility slot.
Special Features
The Oversized Symbol feature is without a doubt one of the most rewarding features on the board. When the Oversized Symbol makes an appearance on reels 2, 3, and 4, players will trigger either a Jackpot Pick Game or a Respins game. The Respins will start a player off with three respins, with the opportunity to retrigger more respins. Each time they retrigger a respin, they'll be awarded with three more respins. During the respins round, more wilds are added to the board. Another exciting feature this board presents is the Jackpot Pick Bonus where players will have nine different options to choose from. When a player matches three jackpot symbols, that jackpot will be paid out to the player. This game has a mini jackpot, a minor jackpot, and a major jackpot.
The free spins will be triggered through the golden vault symbols I mentioned earlier. If you trigger three of these symbols, you'll receive eight free spins. If you trigger four of these symbols, you'll receive twelve free spins, and if you trigger five of these symbols, you'll receive sixteen free spins. These golden vaults will be awarded when they've been triggered anywhere on the screen, making it a lot easier to win free spins. You can also trigger additional free spins during the original free spins round - there are no limitations!
Summary
The elegance of this game is undeniable, but I'd say what really takes the cake involving this slot was the jackpots. If you thought the high win of 2,000x was lacking a bit, it makes up for it with the jackpot potential. Many games with higher maximum wins don't offer jackpots, so overall this is a strong slot.
