Before you join Felix in his Las Vegas adventure you should regulate your bets. "Lines +/-" will regulate the number of lines, and by clicking on "Line Bet +/-" you will regulate coins size which ranges from 0.01 to 100. "Bet Max" is used to set the maximum bet available, and "Auto Play" is there to spin the reels automatically without interruption for a chosen number of times. "Spin" will set the reels in motion, and if you turn "Turbo" mode on, the reels will spin much faster.
This slot has a Wild symbol, and 3 different Scatters which are there to activate bonus features. The game has 3 bonus features which include Free Spins, Wheel of Luck, and Vegas Slots Bonus features, and the aforementioned progressive Jackpot.
The Wild symbol has the word Wild written over it, and it can substitute for any other symbol in the game except for these three scatters. Also, if you land 3 or more of them on an enabled pay-line it will form its own winning combos.
Free Spins bonus feature is triggered when you land 3 The King Show scatters anywhere on reels 2, 4 and 5. A show program will take place in this bonus round and it will award you with up to 20 free spins and 5 sticky wilds. Elvis lookalike will dance in this feature to determine the position on the reels of the wilds which will remain locked in place while the Free Spins bonus lasts.
Wheel of Luck is a mini-game which will be triggered if you land a Wheel of Luck scatter symbol on the center reel. A spinning wheel will show on screen and Felix will spin it to award you with a multiplier. He will continue spinning the reels until you land on a previously visited segment. At that point the round will be over.
Vegas Slots bonus mini-game is triggered by landing 3 Slot Machine symbols anywhere on reels 1, 3 and 5. This is also the feature where you stand to win the progressive jackpot. In this round Felix will play on 4 slot machines and earn you multipliers. He will spin the reels on these machines until they become out of order. If all the red lights above the reels of these machines lit up, you will win progressive jackpot.
How high the progressive jackpot is at a certain moment can be seen in the upper right corner above the reels. The amount is set in a red box which says Jackpot.

Many years ago, when this Cat In Vegas game was released by Playtech, it wasnât a Jackpot game at all, but when Playtech did a total upgrading of their games a few years back, everything took a big change, and this Cat game now has a Jackpot prize. Honestly speaking, I have played the old version many times before, had some good wins from it, enjoyed playing it, but now, all I can say is that the good old days have since gone by! Sigh!
Typical of many Playtech games, the paytable of Cat In Vegas is good, with exciting win values for the top symbols. Getting 5 Wilds, for example, would pay 500x the total bet, the regular symbols would pay from 75x downwards, but sadly though, the Scatter and Bonus symbols are all non-paying. However, the excitement is upheld by having 2 separate Bonus games (one with the Jackpot prize), plus the usual Free Spins game, so this game should keep you interested and going for a long time, unless you run into one of its âbadâ mode of course, hehehe.
The Wheel Of Luck Bonus game is activated by landing the Bonus Wheel symbol anywhere on reel 3 in the base game, offering a win of up to 20x the total bet. Yeah, not a lot, right? However, get 3 âBonusâ symbols and you get a chance at winning the Jackpot prize â just light up all the bars above any of the 4 slot machines in play, and voila, youâre a rich punter! Hehehe. The Free Spins game is nothing special though, offering up to 20 free spins, with up to 5 random Wild symbols on the reels, but without any win multiplier â in fact, this game hasnât got any win multiplier at all, and thatâs a big âargh!â from me!
Having said all that, I have to say out that the old version of Cat In Vegas played so much better, dishing out regular decent wins on and off, but this version failed to live up to my expectations â all payouts were generally very low, either from the Bonus or Free Spins games, and I couldnât even get a 50x win in my last play on it â very disappointing indeed!
