Ape King Slots

Apes and monkeys aren't new additions to the slot game scene, but rarely do you get as many as you can see in this game. Ape King tells you everything you need to know about the theme - perhaps more than you realize at this stage too. He is certainly determined to become the king of the jungle.

We have dipped our toes into the jungle scene to find out everything you should know before you play this game. So, settle back and let's get started.

Developer information

Ape King comes from the magical place that is Realtime Gaming (RTG).

Demo information for the game

It's rare to encounter an RTG slot that doesn't give you the chance to try it first. Ape King does have a demonstration option to try, so check that out before doing anything else.

A theme you've seen before

When you think about the king of animals, you probably think of the lion. In this game, though, the jungle holds a selection of apes, all vying for the top spot. You can guess from the paytable which one gets that spot, but there is plenty more going on inside this game too. The jungle animal theme is one with plenty of drama involved.

Does this game offer a good design?

It's great to look at. The background shows the jungle setting, and while there isn't a lot to see other than the trees, it still has lots of depth. The apes themselves show up across the reels too, and each one is detailed to an impressive degree.

Reels, icons, and more in Ape King slots

Firstly, we should note the presence of five reels in this game. There aren't any jackpots here other than the fixed prizes in the paytable, so you should bear that in mind if you like progressive slots. The apes take up positions as the best-paying icons.

You do get a wild and a scatter here, but instead of being represented by two symbols, the same one takes on both roles. This is the stone pot filled with lots of gold items and riches, so it stands out beautifully whenever it appears. It does so over the middle three reels.

Unusually, only the ape is replaced by this in the main game. Once you start playing the free spin round, you can use the wild to replace everything in sight.

No paylines in this game

No - we get the 243 ways to win format in action instead.

Place one wager on each spin

The way wins format means this is the way to go. The values are calculated with a minimum wager of just 30 cents in play. If you want to bet more, you can look through a selection of other bets going up to $150 at most.

The paytable explains every part of the game

Accessed from underneath the reels to the right of your screen, we suggest you look through its many pages before you begin, even if you want to try the demo.

No bonus here

Ape King slots don't include a bonus round.

What about free spins?

You can secure some of these whenever you find four or more scatters on the reels. The game may also randomly unlock them for you after a spin if you are playing the real version.

There is no pre-determined quantity of spins on offer here. Instead, the apes all appear above the reels with a payout attached to each of them. You then begin the free games.

Whenever at least one of the apes show up in a spin, the Jungle Battle feature gets underway. This is a battle between the biggest ape and the rest of them. As the games progress, the smaller apes could beat the biggest one or vice versa. Your freebies only finish when one of those options happens. Watch and see how your rounds progress.

The paytable shows a chart with lots of possibilities, but the symbols taken off the reels determine the final prize. This could be at least 10x your triggering wager, but the best prize is worth a huge 50,000x your bet.

No return to player value has been given

If you know a thing or two about RTG, you probably weren't expecting a value anyway.

Do we like the Ape King slot?

We do… although the way the free spins play out is a little confusing. We triggered the game and watched its progress and we still found it tough to figure out which apes were going to come out on top. It's strange but we guess it might take a few triggers to understand it better. It's still good though, and worth a 7.5 score out of a maximum of 10 points.

No progressive jackpot winners here

The best prizes are certainly reserved for the free spin feature and the Jungle Battle. Even though it can be difficult to understand what is going on (at least, we think so), there is still a good chance of collecting a reasonable prize.
