Return of Kong Megaways Slot

First unveiled back in April 2019, the Return of Kong Megaways slot is one of the most popular releases to have come from the team over at Blueprint Gaming, with this specific release being a follow-up to the original King Kong Cash slot. This title shares a number of similarities with its predecessor and some differences, such as the transformative Megaways mechanics integrated into the play. The Return of Kong Megaways release provides a slightly overhauled gameplay experience with a couple of nuances that add additional layers overall.

Return of Kong Megaways Game Background

The main difference in the Return of Kong Megaways slot compared to the original is obviously the playgrid, with this having some dynamism injected into it due to it being one of Blueprint Gamings’ Megaways slots. This sees a 6-reel set up with an extra row aligned to the central 4 reels attached at the top, with all of this being framed by some authentic bamboo poles. Each of these 6 reels could potentially display anywhere from 2 to 7 symbol rows per spin, with this ever-changing aspect resulting in a payline count that could go up to 117,649.

Contrasting the stone segments of the playtable, the backdrop showcases a tropical jungle, with this environment being filled with dense green palm leaves and other foliage. In the distance, a monkey stone temple can be seen hidden within the canopy, with this protruding into the clear blue sky overhead. In the foreground, Kong can be seen sitting atop a stone pillar touting a golden crown and chain, with a funky xylophone soundtrack pairing all of these thematic elements together nicely. This visual layout proved such a defining aspect of the series, it has also been mirrored in releases like King Kong Cashpots Jackpot King and King Kong Cash Even Bigger Bananas. 

Return of Kong Megaways Slot Symbols

Due to the playgrid in the Return of Kong Megaways slot having an overhaul compared to the original, so have the symbols that have been included. Whether it is the colourful, wooden textured card symbols taken from live casino table games or the animal characters, all of these manage to fit the tropical jungle orientated theme.

Lower Value Symbols:

• 9

• 10

• Jack (J)

• Queen (Q)

• King (K)

• Ace (A)

Medium Value Symbols:

• Parrot

• Tiger

Higher Value Symbols:

• Rhino 

• Kong

Along with the base game symbols, Blueprint Gaming has also added a couple of bonus ones, each with its own unique modifier. One of these is the palm leaf wild symbol, which can be used to step in for all other symbols in the King Kong Cash slot if landed on its stone-textured playtable. The other main bonus symbols included are the golden ring scatter symbols, which have diamond-encrusted letters across them that spell out the word ‘KONG’.

Return of Kong Megaways Bonus Features

On any random base game spin during Return of Kong Megaways, Kong could randomly throw a golden barrel onto the reels and trigger the ‘Mystery Kong’ feature. During this, mystery symbols are introduced for the following spin, represented by the golden barrel in question, and if landed, these could randomly transform into a random base game symbol after the spin has concluded. Mystery symbols have become more and more popular recently, with them popping up in numerous fan favourite releases, such as Big Bass Hold and Spinner Megaways slot, to name just one.

As the Big Time Gaming’s Megaways mechanic has been included in the Return of Kong Megaways slot, this also brings with it a cascading bonus feature. If a symbol combination is formed on any random spin, this could potentially see all involved symbols removed from the reels, with the empty spaces left behind being filled with new ones that fall down from above. This is especially notable in this specific release, though, as Blueprint Gaming doesn't tend to include this type of bonus in their Megaways selection of games, which is actually absent from Fishin Frenzy Megaways.

The final bonus we will be touching upon in the Return of Kong Megaways slot is the free spins feature; with this being triggered, should the word ‘KONG’ be spelt out using four separate scatter symbols in the same spin. This could add 12 free spins to the players' coin, during which any potential trigger of the cascading mechanic could increase a multiplier by 1x. As well as this, though, the round also introduces some golden monkey statues, and for every 3 of these that land, this could upgrade the minimum number of paylines whilst also retriggering an additional 2 free spins.

Return of Kong Megaways Mobile Play

One thing which the developers over at Blueprint Gaming have not forgotten about in regard to this Return of Kong Megaways slot is its mobile compatibility. Like all of the other games in this series at BoyleSports Games, the level of quality remains the same no matter what device may be preferred, with an internet connection being the only requirement.

When compared to the original entry into this franchise, the Return of Kong Megaways slot certainly presents a transformed experience, not only in relation to the playtable design but also the creative bonus additions and modifiers that have changed slightly from the predecessor.

For fans of the visuals featured in the Return of Kong Megaways slot, there is also a selection of alternative titles that position their play within a tropical jungle, such as the original Gonzos Quest slot and the Aztec Blaze slot.
