Ape King Slots
Animals are a common theme we have seen in plenty of online slots. You can work out that we have an ape in this one, and while that is true, there is much more for us to discover. We've checked out the many perks and features in Ape King, so you can learn about it with us before you load the reels to try it for yourself.
Who created the Ape King slot?
This is another game to add to the growing collection offered by Realtime Gaming. You'll know their initials too, right? It's RTG all the way.
We can try it first thanks to having a demo
We always recommend experimenting with some slots to see if they are as appealing as they initially seem. We are glad to say you can load the practice version of Ape King too, just to see what's what.
Is the theme just about apes?
Apes or monkeys, perhaps? There are plenty of other monkeys apart from the Ape King, but as you'll see, the titular one has the biggest role to play.
Expect an impressive and detailed design
The depths of a forest or jungle appear behind the reels, adding plenty of depth to what's happening on the reels themselves. We do get the usual letters and numbers here, but they're made from stone and feature colors shot through them in places. An unusual detail but a cool one anyway.
And yes, we do have various apes and monkeys as the higher-paying symbols. You'll know when you see the Ape King because he's bigger than the rest. He looks serious too!
Prepare to play the Ape King online slot game
We don't have any progressive jackpots to hope for here, but there are five reels and three rows of icons landing as we begin.
If you thought the Ape King might go wild here, he doesn't. Instead, look for a pot filled with treasure. This might show up on the second, third, or fourth reels. Even
more surprisingly, the treasure wild only substitutes for the Ape King. It won't replace anything else. So far… so unusual.
Paylines in this slot game
There are none in action because the game creators have chosen the 243-ways format instead.
Play 30 coins per spin
Thirty credits will cover all the ways you could win prizes here. The cheapest coin value is only a cent, so a 30-cent bet is the starting point. There are various other coins to choose from, so you could go up to $150 at most on a single spin.
Paytable details in Ape King
Look for the burger logo as that's where you can get access to the paytable. We read it before playing, and we suggest you do too.
Bonus features don't crop up here
Ape King doesn't have anything like this.
Free spin chances in the slot game
There is a free spin feature, with two possible triggers. It can randomly happen, or you can get there by finding four or more scatter symbols to unlock the round. This begins with a Jungle Battle, where the Ape King goes into battle against all the other apes appearing on the reels (five in total).
The idea is that the free games carry on until one side beats the other. We must admit that we played the demo until we reached this feature, and we had no clue what was happening! However, you can sit back and see if any prizes land before the battle ends and the spins end with it.
One thing we are sure of is that the victor grants you a prize to mark the end of the battle. You're guaranteed to receive 10x the value of the bet that unlocked the spins. However, if you managed to get the best prize, you'd walk away with 50,000x that amount.
One other point to make… if you find the treasure pot wild here, it substitutes for everything rather than just the Ape King. This makes it easier to land prizes during the free games.
We have a usual lack of RTP detail here
Realtime Gaming doesn't reveal this information, so we cannot confirm a figure for
you here either.
Did we enjoy playing the Ape King slots?
This is a reasonably good slot, although we would like it more if we could work out what was going on in the free spin battle feature. This is clearly the highlight, so it would be cool if it made more sense. Or is that just us? We're giving it 8 out of 10 anyway, with top marks in the design area.
The biggest potential is within the free spins
And if you get there, you can sit back and watch the battle to find out what your eventual prize might be. You'll hopefully score other prizes along the way as you play the spins, too.
The demo is the best way to begin play
You could do what we did and play to open the free game round. You'll then see what happens and you might have a better idea than we did how it all works! We just kept an eye on our prizes during the round anyway.
Will you switch to the real game?
Only you can work out the answer, but there are some neat betting options to suit most players here anyway. Most RTG casinos should have the game to play as well.
