Gorilla Kingdom review
Gorilla Kingdom keeps its rules short and puts one idea in the free spins. NetEnt's April 2020 jungle slot offers 1,024 ways on a 5x4 grid, and the bonus round has a Totem Stone that fills up with Gorilla masks until the whole board turns into Gorilla symbols. The catalogue lists a 96.03% RTP, a Very high volatility label and a top prize of 1,700x the bet. The hit frequency, 36%, is high for that rating.
Base game in brief
The studio describes a fast-paced video slot with five reels and up to 1,024 bet ways. Bets run from €0.10 to €350.00. The studio text lists no wilds, multipliers or cascades for the main game; the focus is on the scatters and the free spins that they open.
Three or more Scatter symbols anywhere on the reels award between 10 and 20 free spins. The studio gives that range but not the split for each scatter count.
Inside the free spins
During the round, three to five scatters anywhere on the reels grant 10 to 20 Extra Free Spins, so the round can be extended using the same scale as the original trigger. Its distinctive feature is the Symbol Transform, which works on a Totem Stone made up of four animal panels.
Symbol Transform
The Gorilla symbol can randomly turn into a Gorilla mask. The mask fills one slot on the Totem Stone, while a Gorilla symbol is left on the reels. It is a gradual build: each mask is progress toward converting the board.
Totem Stone panels
The animals on the stone are the Leopard, Hornbill, Okapi and Pangolin, with 6 slots each. When all 6 slots of one animal panel are filled with masks, that animal's symbol turns into the Gorilla symbol on the reels.
Full Totem Stone
Once all 24 slots are filled, only the Gorilla symbol appears on the reels. The studio does not state the Gorilla's pay value, so the size of that outcome is not something we can quote.
What the numbers say
Gorilla Kingdom has one RTP on record, 96.03%, a house edge of 3.97%. That is about $39.70 lost per $1,000 wagered over a long run. A 100-spin session costs about $0.79 at a $0.20 bet, $3.97 at $1 and $19.85 at $5.
The hit frequency is 36%, a little more than one spin in three. The maximum win is 1,700x the bet, which equals $340 at $0.20, $1,700 at $1 and $8,500 at $5. The combination of a frequent hit rate and a Very high label suggests that many results are small, with the larger outcomes tied to the free spins and the transform.
Similar Very high games
Rage of the Seas lists 96.04% and 2,000x, Mermaids 96.09% and 2,007x, and Cashomatic 96.33% and 2,200x. Funk Master lists 96.04% with 3,300x. Street Fighter II: The World Warrior Slot lists 96.08% and 1,200x, and Gladiator Clash 96.1% and 1,006x. Gorilla Kingdom's ceiling is below four of those six.
Pros
- Totem Stone transform gives the free spins a clear progression
- Extra Free Spins of 10 to 20 can be won inside the round
- Hit frequency of 36% with 1,024 ways on a 5x4 grid
- Free official demo available
Cons
- Very high volatility with a 3.97% house edge
- Max win of 1,700x is moderate for that rating
- The studio text lists no special features outside the free spins
Verdict
Gorilla Kingdom puts almost everything into the free spins: a Totem Stone that turns animals, and eventually the whole board, into Gorilla symbols. The 96.03% RTP and Very high volatility mean a 3.97% house edge and uneven results, with 1,700x as the ceiling. The main game is plain, so the free demo is the best way to judge whether the wait for the bonus suits you.
