Return of Kong Megaways
Everyone’s favourite primate from the silver screen is back on the slots in this 2019 release from Blueprint Gaming. King Kong has lent his legendary name to a number of games in the past but there are reasons to suggest that Return of Kong Megaways might just be the best of the bunch.
Firstly, there is that Megaways feature that allows for a colossal set of 117,649 paylines in the base game. Regular wins can drop in during those opening stages but, for a chance to aim for the bigger prizes, it’s all about unlocking the bonus features.
Return of Kong Megaways Mechanics
Return of Kong Megaways has been set by the developers on a grid with six reels with columns that can vary in size. Depending on the size of the symbols that spin into view, up to seven images can appear in each of those columns.
The symbols that we need to match up begin with the 9, 10, J, Q, K and A from a regular set of playing cards. These are lower values and they are balanced by higher paying images which are a rhino, a tiger, a parrot and Kong himself.
Wins that land during the base game will be subject to the cascading reels feature where the matching symbols disappear to be replaced by others falling from above. That sequence will continue as long as more matches are found.
Return of Kong Megaways Free Spins
The wild symbol in Return of Kong Megaways is clearly marked and it can only appear on the horizontal reel at the top. Like most wilds, it will replace the majority of other icons as it looks to form winning combinations.
To activate the Free Spins round, players must complete the letters K, O, N and G on the lower reels. These are scatter symbols and, when the word KONG is spelled out in full, an initial set of 12 free spins will be awarded. Further scatters will add five more spins to the round while cascading wins will increase a multiplier in this section. Extra Golden Monkey symbols can also appear in this round and three of these will add two more spins into the mix.
