Invading Vegas: Las Christmas

First Impressions

Drop yourself into the middle of the Vegas strip on Christmas Eve, then imagine it taken over by aliens from a 1950s B-movie. That's what Invading Vegas: Las Christmas feels like from the very first spin. Flashing casino lights, neon-wrapped palm trees, and ruined Vegas landmarks sit under a chilly desert sky. The reels are full of kitschy characters—a tipsy old lady, a fake Elvis, and a Vegas Santa, all looking like they’ve stepped out of some retro sci-fi comic. Behind it all, the music is pure spacey Christmas jingle with a dash of cheesy lounge act. Play’n GO, who knows a thing or two about stylish slots, clearly went for both fun and nostalgia with this one.

How the Slot Plays

Invading Vegas: Las Christmas slot sticks to a familiar 5x3 setup. There are 20 paylines, fixed, so no fiddling around there. It’s your standard ‘match three or more on a line left-to-right’ situation. Bets range from a tiny 0.10 up to whatever your casino allows—good news for cautious players and those looking to up the stakes. The RTP sits anywhere from 84.2% to 96.2%, depending on where you play. If you want the best returns, make sure you find the 96.2% version—that’s just above the industry average. Volatility stays in the medium lane, which usually means the base game throws some regular, smaller wins your way but still leaves room for bonus features to shine. A max win of 2,500x your stake won’t shake up your bankroll, but it’s enough to keep things exciting if the features land right.

Digging Into the Bonuses

This isn’t just a static base-game grinder. The Invading Vegas: Las Christmas slot delivers a handful of clever features that keep things lively, especially if you like a bit of unpredictability. Wild symbols fill in for everything except scatters, and they can bring attached multipliers ranging from 5x up to a whopping 30x if luck is on your side. Trigger a respin—called the 'Lock on Respin'—by landing two full stacks of the same symbol on reels one and two but missing out on reel three. Those reels lock, the rest respin, and stacked wilds can march their way into view. If a walking wild lands on reel three, watch it moonwalk its way across the reels, dragging mystery symbols behind it, stacking up possible new wins until it slides out of view. Free spins are the other highlight. Land three scatters and you’re in for 12 spins where that walking wild walks left instead of right, giving you more chances for a surprise chain reaction of wins and stacking wilds.

Symbols and Payouts

The paytable here leans all-in on theme. The highest-payer is an Elvis lookalike—land five and it’s an 8x payout. After the King, Santa-hat guy and the blue-dressed lady pay up to 3.2x for five. There are lesser-respectable Vegas characters, then classic poker chip ‘royals’ standing in for the lower values (with maximum 0.8x for a full line). The wild symbol—a flashy, green alien—has real teeth when it comes to payouts, landing you anywhere from 5x to 30x multipliers when the reels align. The scatter is your classic Christmas gift box, the key to unlocking the free spins round, and the mystery symbol (also a wrapped present) drops and reveals random symbols, sometimes with a sweet little multiplier up to 10x.

Getting Started

Invading Vegas: Las Christmas is a breeze to pick up. Choose your stake from the menu, hit the bright green spin button, and watch for three or more of a symbol with the leftmost reel leading the way. If you like things on autopilot, there’s an autoplay feature for longer sessions. Access the paytable via the menu (three bars usually in a corner). Those first few spins are all about getting a feel for the walking wilds and what those mystery gift boxes can do. Even if you’re new, Invading Vegas: Las Christmas demo and free play options let you test drive every feature before chancing your balance.

How It Feels Compared to Others

Fans of Play’n GO’s Invading Vegas slot will spot the same off-kilter style here, but with more holiday spirit and a bit more chaos from the bonus features. It’s got a dash of Book of Dead’s volatility but with a much lighter, fun-loving vibe. The stacked and walking wilds give echoes of games like Dead or Alive 2, though with a cheerier twist and holiday soundtrack. If your thing is high maximum wins or relentless high-volatility drama, this probably sits a notch below premium thrill rides like Money Train 2—with Invading Vegas: Las Christmas, you get smoother gameplay and more reason to laugh than to bite your nails.

Other Games to Try

Enjoying the weird Christmas/alien blend? Play’n GO has plenty more offbeat slots to test out. The original Invading Vegas is worth a spin if you want the same B-movie humor minus the Santa hats. For different takes on Christmas chaos, check out something like Santa vs. Rudolf or Play’n GO’s holiday versions of fan favorites. Those keen on walking wilds and mystery features might like Sticky Bandits or Fat Santa. There’s more out there if you crave a lighthearted, cinematic slot night.

This Invading Vegas: Las Christmas review covers what you actually get—nostalgic visuals, a handful of bonus twists, and enough quirks to feel fresh without being overwhelming. It’s not a slot for life-changing wins, but as a festive pick-me-up, it has all the ingredients for a few memorable sessions. Whether trying the full game or checking out Invading Vegas: Las Christmas free play, the main draw is watching those little green men steal Christmas—in true Vegas fashion.
