Benji Killed in VegasSlot Review

Benji Killed in Vegas is a 5 reel, 3 row video slot with up to a whopping 7776 ways to win. Set on the gritty streets of Las Vegas, the game features dead presidents Washington, Lincoln and Franklin as thugged out gangster versions of themselves. The min/max bet ranges from 0.20 to 100.00 per spin, with a high volatility slot RTP of 96.04% and maximum possible payout capped at 10,000x your stake.

Given the atypical theme and creative interpretations of American historical figures, I wasn't quite sure what to expect when first loading up Benji Killed in Vegas. But within seconds of the opening sequence I knew I was in for something wildly original! Nolimit City has a knack for taking edgy or controversial themes and infusing the gameplay with their trademark xMechanics, innovative features and polished visuals. And they pull out all the stops for this release!

Having played hundreds of slots in my day, at a certain point gameplay features and bonus rounds start to feel recycled across various titles. "Been there done that!" is a common sentiment among seasoned slot enthusiasts. So when something truly unique like Benji Killed in Vegas comes along, it restores my faith that creative innovation still exists despite market saturation.

Of course, the novelty of thug life presidents provided plenty of laughs and entertainment on its own. But from a pure gameplay perspective, I was most impressed by the multiplier overlay mechanic. Watching various multipliers float across the reels, combine with wild nudges, interact with bonus features, and eventually contribute to massive wins was incredibly satisfying. This relatively new concept felt fresh and added an element of anticipation, knowing that any given spin had winning potential if enough overlays piled up in the right spots.

The two free spin bonus rounds, while not entirely new concepts on their own, also worked seamlessly with the overlay mechanic. Having the multiplier values remain sticky throughout the entire round in B.I.G. Vegas Spins mode led to some absolutely epic wins during my sessions. And the visual presentation kept things lively, with Abraham Lincoln popping bottles under the disco lights as coins filled the screen!

Add in fun touches like golden pistol and knuckle symbols on the reels, dead presidents making it "rain" after a big win, and plenty of bling to go around, and the entertainment value here is off the charts. Benji Killed in Vegas will satisfy your craving for something different!

Of course, no slot with Nolimit City's name attached would be complete without a bevy of creative bonus features and special mechanics. And Benji Killed in Vegas delivers on this front with an exciting array of options detailed below:

Dead Presidents Nudge

High value symbols Washington (green), Lincoln (orange) and Franklin (red) are the dead presidents. When one lands fully visible covering an entire reel, it triggers a nudge for partially visible presidents to slide into full view. A multiplier increasing by +1 accompanies each nudge, all of which apply to the final symbol payout.

xNudge Wild

The 3-row wildcard substitutes for regular symbols and always nudges down to take up its entire reel. For each nudge, the wildcard multiplier increases by +1 and contributes to the winning combo multipliers.

2-Dice Respin

Landing 2 scatters triggers a respin with multiplier overlays transforming the dice to x2 and x3 multipliers respectively. Enhancers also activate on the respin.

Vegas$ Spins

Triggered by 3 scatters, this bonus round awards 9 free spins with enhancers active and scatters turning into x2, x3 and x4 multiplier overlays. Extra scatters land during the feature for a chance to upgrade...

B.I.G. Vegas$ Spins

The ultimate 11-13 free spin mode unlocked by hitting 4+ scatters. Dead presidents serve up x2 all the way to x6 multiplier overlays that remain sticky for all spins. Stacked wilds and multiple overlays can lead to insane payouts!

Enhancers

A dynamic upper reel that activates during features to dollop extra multipliers and split symbols onto the game grid, contributing to wins down below.

Like I mentioned earlier, these myriad features synergize beautifully to create no limit winning potential (pun intended). Just when you think the slot might be cooling down, suddenly 5 new overlays drop into place or Abraham Lincoln starts nudging across the whole reel or the enhancement hammer drops. Volatility is the name of the game here, which also means extended dry spells Hot and cold streaks, peaks and valleys, monster wins and heartbreaking near-misses - that's the Benji Killed in Vegas way!

So we've covered the engaging theme, jammin' beats, and fun features that provide such a lively experience playing Benji Killed in Vegas. But what about hard cold cash potential? After all, slots are meant to be played for real money - we can't survive on entertainment alone!

As hinted at earlier, while this game offers no shortage of adrenaline pumping action, the actual RTP and hit frequency leave a little something to be desired. With high variance (8/10 volatility scale), you'll endure your share of dead spins even at higher bet levels. And the theoretical return to player rate of 96.04% trails most other top tier slots on the market these days.

During my testing across 1000+ spins on desktop and mobile, I achieved a respectful 93.48% RTP but failed to bag the mega 10,000x top prize. Max win potential may not seem extraordinary compared to some previous Nolimit City releases, but a 5-figure score is nothing to scoff at! Just don't expect it to hit too frequently at 1 in 3.8 million spin average.

Most of my feature triggers resulted in 100-500x wins, even when multiplying sticky wilds and overlays combined forces. Though I did have a particularly extraordinary B.I.G. Vegas Spins round pay over 7000x thanks to a fortunate alignment of split symbols, a double stacked Abraham Lincoln nudge, and multiple floating multiplier overlays amplifying the win. So lady luck does appear on occasion!

But with penny bets starting at just 0.20 per spin, this slot provides entertainment that outpunches its weight class. Compared to the £/€1+ minimum bets on many similarly volatile games, Benji Killed in Vegas offers more bang for your buck even if the bucks don't always bang back!

In final analysis, while Benji Killed in Vegas may not deliver the most monetary returns compared to slots with similar volatility and features, it compensates by wrapping everything up in ridiculously entertaining theme and presentation that had me smiling ear to ear.

Nolimit City deserves kudos for continuing to push boundaries and innovate both on technical game mechanics and incorporation of atypical themes. Turning historic political figures into hustlers and gangbangers shows they are clearly not afraid to head into controversial territory!

So if you're seeking something fresh that you won't find anywhere else in the casino lobby, I wholeheartedly recommend a trip to Vegas with Benji et al. Just be prepared for a highly volatile experience where rewards can fluctuate dramatically. And should you defy the 3.8 million spin odds and nail that max 10,000x jackpot, be sure to let me know! I'll happily buy the first round of margaritas to celebrate!
