Heart of Vegas dates back to 2007. This title comes from a generation of solid, enjoyable slots – though it does not have the special effects of more recent games. You’ll find this in live casinos around the country, and in casino apps for iPhones or Android devices.
Heart of Vegas REAL Casino Slots. Welcome to the BEST Vegas casino games of 2020, Heart of Vegas, featuring classic Vegas casino slots by Aristocrat!Come and play your favorite real casino games and go for the Jackpot! In the newest release Heart of Vegas brings you Dragon Link from the original LIGHTNING LINK™ slots games with Lightning-fast Jackpots, Free Games, and the Hold & Spin feature to keep you on the edge of your seat.
You’ll want to get to the free spins bonus as soon as possible when you take Heart of Vegas for a spin. Here you get extra stacks of wild symbols – in the form of hearts. These can turn your wins into big hits, especially if you have chosen to play on the maximum 100 win-lines.
A newer play money app-only version of this slot has added the Hold and Spin feature from Lightning Link slots. This is covered below.
Before you spin you get to choose the number of win-lines, denomination and bet multiplier. There is a wide range of win-lines to choose from. The maximum 100 gives you the best chance of a huge win, as this works well with the stacked wild symbols. You can also choose, 1, 20 or 50. This game uses a 5×4 reel setup.
Showgirl symbols appear in stacks (long strips) on every reel. You have the potential to cover all or most of the reels on any spin. Here is the list of unique symbols on the Heart of Vegas slots:
Smaller wins come from the standard playing card symbols used on 100’s of Aristocrat slots at both live and online casinos. Each one comes in a distinctive bold color. Aces down to nines are in play this time.
There are two more symbols in play. The bonus symbol is the iconic ‘Welcome to Las Vegas’ sign. This only appears on the first 3 reels. Red heart symbols are wilds. These substitute for the regular symbols. They only appear on the last 4 reels, and so can’t create wins on their own.
3 of the Las Vegas sign bonus symbols will trigger the free spins. You start with 10 free spins. There are no ‘easy retriggers’ like you’ll find on the Buffalo slots range. Hitting 3 more of the special symbols will add 10 more spins to your current total.
The main difference during your free spins are a lot of extra wild symbols. These become stacked. You will see long strips of them flying past on reels 2 through 4. With any luck, one or more reels will be completely covered, triggering multiple wins.
Aristocrat have entertainment-only apps, where you can enjoy many of their iconic slot titles – though not for real money.
Among these you will find a newer version of Heart of Vegas. This includes the Lightning Link Hold and Spin bonus feature. To trigger this, you need 6 or more chips. These can show coin amounts, or the names of the 3 smaller jackpots.
You start with 3 spins, giving you a shot at adding more prizes. Each time you do add a prize, your spins reset to 3. Filling up all 20 spots on the reels with these chips will unlock the biggest (Grand) jackpot prize.
This is one of a select group of Aristocrat slots which is available online as well as in live casinos. Big brands such as Harrah’s and Caesars should have this game, along with the majority of casinos with Atlantic City slots. Outside of visiting a local casino, you can play this game on social casino apps.
If you are not in a regulated state, you’ll have two options. Either head to your closest Brick and mortar casino and look for Heart of Vegas there, or find the (play-money only) Aristocrat app.
Around the outside of the reels you’ll see purple feathers similar to those worn by showgirls. These fan out across the screen. The reels are backed in blue, with bold, simple symbols spinning over them. There are some entertaining touches. Look out for the showgirl cartoon. She will wink at you whenever she is involved in a win.
There is some basic music, which is joined by the famous Aristocrat ‘Jingles’ when you win (and coin show if you win big).
This slot might not have the latest graphics, though it does have plenty of big win potential. It is exactly the type of game you’d seek out to clear a casino bonus – or simply have an entertaining session on.
Key to the big wins are the heart wild symbols. These do appear in the base game, connecting wins with the regular symbols. In the free spins bonus round you will find a lot more of them. They now come in long strips on the reels, potentially covering reels 2, 3 4 and 5 completely. This would be the perfect time to get a stack of the higher paying showgirl symbols on reel 1.
