Return of Kong Megaways

The Return of Kong is a Donkey Kong-inspired 6-reeler, giving you the mind-blowing 117, 649 ways to win. It is playable across all devices and accepts bets in the range 0.10 – £100 per spin.

As far as symbols are concerned, you will come across the low-paying A to 9 royals as well as better paying parrots, rhinos, monkeys, barrels, tigers, and Kong with the latter being the best paying among them. The wild performs its standard symbol replacement duties.

Cascading Symbols

Similar to its counterparts, the Return of Kong utilises the cascading symbols mechanics. When you land a winning combination, the winning symbols disappear to be replaced by new ones. The new ones may form yet another winning combination and so on. The feature ends when the symbols that appear on the reels no longer form a winning combo.

Mystery Kong Feature

The Mystery Kong is a randomly triggered feature. During the base game, you may see Kong throwing golden barrels at the reels. All barrels reveal identical symbols that increase your chances of securing a decent win.

Free Spins

The four scatter symbols spelling KONG trigger the free spins feature. You are awarded 12 free spins. Every extra scatter you land adds 5 extra spins. Every time you win, the multiplier increases x1.

Monkey Trophy Collection Feature

Left off the reel set, you will see a collection meter indicating the number of golden monkey trophies you have collected so far. Collect 3 trophies and you will be granted 2 extra free spins and a Megaways increase. If you collect the max number of trophies, you get 117, 649 ways to win.

Bottom Line

A quick look at the paytable is enough to make you consider exploring the strengths and weaknesses of the Return of Kong Megaways. It is true that the Megaways titles are getting a bit repetitive, but we cannot turn a blind eye to the fact that Blueprint is trying to add intriguing features to spice things up. The Megaways craze is at its peak and no matter how similar slots are to each other, we will keep paying them. Be warned, though. The Return of Kong is a highly volatile slot.
