Play Lost Vegas For Real Money With Bonus
Lost Vegas Slots
The scary movie/TV genre is currently experiencing a popularity surge akin to the Hammer Horror films. From the Walking Dead to World War Z, it’s clear that the Zombie theme is highly sought after. Admittedly, we are big fans of zombies in the office, and that’s why we are eagerly anticipating the new Lost Vegas slot from Microgaming. Having already presented us with exciting games like Bar Bar Black Sheep this year, we are curious to see how they will approach a horror-themed slot.
It seems like a potential slot blockbuster is in the making! Set in post-apocalyptic Las Vegas, Lost Vegas offers two distinct base game modes — one where you play as a member of the undead and another as part of the survivors’ group. Depending on your choice, you will access different bonus rounds and enjoy shared random bonus features during regular gameplay.
The game’s 5×3 reels structure has already gained a strong fan following, and it is impressively optimized for mobile play. We hope this means it will be available on both browser-based Microgaming casinos and download sites, rather than being exclusive to downloads. Fortunately, most Microgaming casinos now offer both options, with downloads typically associated with older titles in the catalog.
Theme
Lost Vegas is set amidst the rainy streets and dimly lit halls of Las Vegas casinos. Players must pick a side — either joining the zombie group led by an Elvis impersonator, Showgirl, and Nurse, or aligning with the survivors featuring a casual golf player, a rugged high roller, and a presumably working girl. The game also includes crossover characters between the two groups, like a well-dressed couple and an elderly tourist among the zombies, and a Security guard and waitress among the survivors.
Each character, bonus feature, and win sequence in Lost Vegas slot is accompanied by unique sound effects and animations. It is one of the most intricately developed Microgaming slots in terms of entertainment value, with an art style paying homage to dark comics such as Frank Miller’s Sin City. Players can switch sides between spins, similar to choosing between Krypton/Earth game modes in the Superman slot.
Features
While Lost Vegas is visually captivating, its true strength lies in its gameplay. The survivors’ mode includes a random blackout bonus feature triggered after any losing spin. Night vision goggles scan the reels, randomly revealing high-value cash prizes. In the zombie mode, the ‘zombie fist of cash’ bonus is activated in a similar fashion, featuring a giant zombie hand clutching dollar notes. What’s more, if there is at least one scatter symbol present, it will also trigger the free spins bonus!
To trigger the standard free spins round, players need to land three hazard symbol scatters. Each game mode offers unique free spins, with the survivors enjoying a ‘stash’ feature that incorporates an avalanche or cascading reels mechanic. Low-value playing card icons fall from the reels, replaced by fresh symbols falling from above. Disappearing symbols contribute to the survivors’ stash meter, with total accumulated prizes awarded at the end of the bonus rounds.
Zombie mode introduces an infection feature where zombies transform into stacked wilds, infecting each touched reel for the duration of the spins. While this mode is more volatile, it offers significant payout potential, with a possibility of a full 5-reel set of expanded wilds rewarding up to 2155x the maximum bet of 45.00 credits.
Summary
Although the land-based Walking Dead slot may dominate due to its fan base, Lost Vegas stands out as a top Zombie slot in the online realm. With a reasonable bet range, straightforward format, and medium variance, it appeals to a wide range of players. The outstanding visual and audio work, coupled with engaging gameplay and rewarding potential, position Lost Vegas not only as one of the finest new slots of the year but also as one of the premier online slots, even outshining many branded land casino machines. Alongside the recent Jungle Jim game, Microgaming is proving to be a formidable competitor to NetEnt and Betsoft in terms of delivering a memorable gaming experience.
