The London-based gaming giant NextGen has outdone itself with King Kong Fury. This mighty gorilla, known to and beloved by audiences worldwide since his debut in 1933, provides the thematic content for a slot game overflowing with exciting design, great features, and some of the best odds available for players anywhere today.
Theme
Perhaps inspired by the 2017 film iteration of the King Kong saga, this slot is set on Skull Island, where Kong may be king, but is not without competition for fiercest creature around. High-value symbols include a number of fearsome beasts, including a tyrannosaurus rex, a triceratops, and three other terrifying dinosaurs, while the playing card values ace through nine act as lower-value symbols. The great ape himself, King Kong, appears on the middle reels and acts as wild symbol, while his lady love, a bound blonde, appears on the outer two reels and acts as the bonus/scatter symbol. The reels are set amidst a stunning island, replete with misty jungle and massive, gorgeous cliffs. Sound design stays true to the epic quality found in the King Kong movies, with pounding drums, orchestral colors, and flute sounds meant to evoke a primitive quality.
Betting Options and Functions
Though giant, rage-ful apes may not be associated with top-tier attention to detail, the superb design team at NextGen ensures that there are no loose ends in this title. There are 50 fixed pay lines in this coin-based slot, and per-spin bet is set simply from 0.25–500.00 times the betting currency. Autoplay is available for up to 100 spins at a time, while a simple menu allows players to easily access all adjustable controls, as well as view paylines, paytable information, and game rules in detail. The overall theoretical return to player ratio is among the best available anywhere at 96.703%.
Features
Overall design is strong in King Kong Fury, but it’s in the bonus feature that this slot really shines. The Lightning Reel feature can occur on any spin, instantly adding up 15 high-value beast symbols to the reels. Similarly, the Kong’s Call feature can take place following the “native’s chant” at random after any spin: Kong himself is summoned, adding up to 12 wild symbols to the reels. Both of these features can provide major wins.
King of Skull Island Bonus feature is triggered when the bonus symbol appears on both reels one and five. Play begins with the spinning of the statue reels, which reveals how many free spins are awarded, up to a maximum of 100. During free spins, the Raging Re-Spins feature is activated: here, every full wild stack awards an automatic free respin, with full wild stacks. In addition to its immense profitability, this feature also comes with delightful animation and an even more intense soundtrack than base play. Bonus symbols even remain on the reels, so that the feature can be retriggered.
Our Take
With a Godzilla vs. King Kong film upcoming in 2020, sovereignty over the kingdom of the massive beasts may be in question – there’s no debate, however, as to who should rule the online slot kingdom. From a gaming substance perspective, NextGen’s King Kong Fury is among the best slots available anywhere.
