Invading Vegas Las Christmas - Slot Review
A chaotic Christmas in Las Vegas
When we first saw the design of Invading Vegas Las Christmas, we got déjà vu. This slot is very similar to another Christmas slot from Play’n Go, which they released a year before. That slot was called “Invading Vegas” and is thus the predecessor of Invading Vegas Las Christmas.
Visually, the 2 slots are very similar. They both take place on “The Strip” of Las Vegas. The only difference between the 2 slots is that in Invading Vegas Las Christmas, all the buildings are damaged or collapsed. Apparently, the aliens – because that’s what the creatures invading Las Vegas are – have completely trashed the place. Now you may be thinking: what does all this have to do with Christmas? Well, we don’t really know either.
Furthermore, all characters appear in Christmas outfits and there is a Christmas song as a soundtrack.
You definitely don’t want to visit this apocalyptic Las Vegas during Christmas!
Invading Vegas Las Christmas is played on a playing field with dimensions of 5 x 3 symbols. There are 20 paylines included in the game. On those paylines, you need to spin identical symbols on at least 3 consecutive reels from the 1st reel to form a winning combination.
Invading Vegas Las Christmas is played with medium volatility and there is a maximum RTP of 96.20%. However, pay close attention to which version of Invading Vegas Las Christmas you are dealing with, as there are versions in circulation where the RTP is much lower.
Your bets here may vary from a minimum of $0.10 to a maximum of $50 per spin. Furthermore, you can win up to 2,500 times your stake in this slot.

Some four well-known features
There are four features included in Invading Vegas Las Christmas to be exact. However, we can’t call them innovative, as we have seen them pass by in Invading Vegas or other slots before. They are mystery symbols, a lock on respin, the walking wild and, of course, a free spins feature.
Mystery symbols
Mystery symbols will regularly land on the playfield. These all always reveal the same random pay symbol during a spin. However, in Invading Vegas Las Christmas, there is also a chance that they will reveal multiplier wilds. These are multipliers of x2, x3, x5 or x10.
These multipliers are applied to winning combinations they are part of. If several multiplier wilds are part of the same winning combinations, their values are first added together and only then applied to the winning combination.
Lock on respin
In the special situation where both reel 1 and reel 2 only show the same symbols but no winning combination can be made, a lock on respin is triggered. Reels 1 and 3 are then locked, after which the remaining reels spin again.

Walking wild
During such a lock on respin, a stacked wild can land on the middle reel, meaning that that reel will then consist entirely of wild symbols. If this happens, the stacked wild changes into a walking wild. This walking wild moves one reel to the right every spin, which means you will keep receiving new respins until the walking wild falls off the playing field.
Each time the walking wild moves one reel to the right, it causes 3 to 12 mystery symbols to be placed in marked positions on the playing field.
Free Spins
You can earn 12 free spins in Invading Vegas Las Christmas by spinning 3 scatters. If the free spins feature is triggered at the same time as a walking wild, you will play the free spins feature and therefore the walking wild will be voided.
Fortunately, walking wilds can be unlocked again during the free spins feature of Invading Vegas Las Christmas. In fact, it’s even a lot easier than in the base game, as the chance of stacked premium pay symbols is significantly higher during the free spins feature. An important detail we shouldn’t forget to mention is that walking wilds move to the left instead of to the right during the free spins feature.
