King Kong tells the story of the giant ape of Skull Island, captured and brought back to New York for the entertainment of the locals before running riot and finally falling to it’s doom from the top of a skyscraper; Mighty Kong is an online slot dedicated to this tale, it’s developed by Pragmatic Play and you can read all about it here.

Mighty Kong is a five reel slot with four rows and fifty fixed paylines; a jungle drum soundtrack accompanies your gameplay and those reels spin on reels of film behind which we can just about make out a steamy forest with cascading waterfalls.

The high value symbols are characters from the film such as Ann Darrow, Carl Denham and Jack Driscoll; 10, J, Q, K and A represent the lower values.

The wild is a big gold ‘Wild’ which will replace all others to form winning combinations except for the King Kong scatter symbol; if the wild appears on reel three it will expand to fill all positions on that reel if a win is possible.

Bonus Features

Free Spins

This is triggered by landing three or more of the King Kong scatter symbols anywhere in view and you will now get to choose one of four free spins options as follows:

• Five free spins + 8x multiplier
• Eight free spins + 5x multiplier
• Thirteen free spins + 3x multiplier
• Forty free spins + 1x multiplier

We prefer the slight statistical advantage of the first two options but the choice is yours! Landing more King King scatters will retrigger this round.

Verdict

Mighty Kong is a nicely atmospheric slot with a tense soundtrack and a plenty of nods towards the original story; the option to pick your free spins round is always welcome so give it a go!
