Reliving the glory of the 2005 blockbuster King Kong in a slot machine was an entertaining and rewarding experience that I wouldn’t mind repeating. The stars of the film appear as major symbols against a backdrop that shifts between city and jungle, generating unique features to help you snag the medium Volatility game’s top potential payout of $200k. The graphics and soundtrack were great, but I was most impressed with the varied bonus features with fun interactive elements.

Watch for the changing background that will offer the opportunity to trigger different bonus features.
Skull Island
When you land 3 or more scatter symbols on the reels, you will be transported to a map of skull island where 13 bright dots are scattered about. Clicking on these locations will reveal different creatures. Once you get three matches, you will be awarded a corresponding prize, with the only exception being the Kong symbolwhich only needs to be uncovered once to pay you out. The Brontosaurus is worth 10x your stake, the Venatosaurus is worth 15x your stake, the T-Rex is worth 20x your stake and Kong is worth 30x your stake.
After triggering this feature, the game’s appearance will change, and you will be transported to the Big City mode where landing 3 scatters activates the City Tower bonus feature. Here, you will see Kong perched on a tall building with planes flying towards him. Click one of three arrows three separate times to destroy a plane and claim a trio of cash prizes.
Wild Jungle Respins
When 3 Kong wild symbols appear on the same spin, you will get 3 respins where the triggering wild symbols and any more that land will become sticky and stay locked in place. Landing a full screen of Kong wilds will land you a hefty 3000x your stake prize.
Wild Kong Respins
3 or more Kong wilds during the Big City mode will trigger the Wild Kong Respins feature where you are handed 3 respins with wilds that expand to cover the entire reel.
King Kong slot is a testament to Playtech’s adaptation ability. I felt similar excitement playing the game as I experienced when I first watched the movie. The switching scenes and corresponding unique bonus features keep things fresh, and the top possible prize of $200 000 from a single spin is enough motivation to give it a shot. For more giant ape action, give Rhino Rilla Rex a look.
