Before you start spinning the reels, you need to familiarise yourself with the game’s control panel. With 243 ways to win spread across fixed paylines, you don’t need to worry about deciding how many lines to play with, as they are all activated.
How to Play King of Monkeys
At the bottom left side of your console, you’ll find a button that allows you to choose whether to turn the in-game soundtrack on or off. Unlike some pokie games, there’s no constant background theme music playing, but you can hear the reels spinning. A win is heralded by a short tune accompanied by the satisfying sound of money raining down.
A sound also alerts you to the appearance of a Scatter symbol on the reels. You can also choose whether or not to activate the game’s Gamble feature, depending on your personal preference. When switched on, the feature allows you to gamble on whether a card will turn out to be red or black, for those who like a little something extra with their pokie fun.
The next button gives you access to the game’s paytable, where you can find out how much winning symbols will add to your prize pot. There are three explanatory screens, which you can uncover by pressing the arrow buttons. Next is your Bet Multiplier button, which allows you to choose how much to wager on each spin. You can choose to play from 1 coin up to 50 coins per spin, using the arrow to either side of the button.
Autoplay
The large green central button on the console starts the reels spinning, although you can also opt to select the Autoplay feature, which allows you to select from a preset selection of spins from 10 to 500 without having to press Spin each time. You can cancel this feature at any time by pressing the central button, which turns into a Stop button when the feature is activated.
To the right of the Spin button, you’ll find a display showing the total amount of your bet, along with details of any wins that you accumulate along the way. A red Chinese symbol is the game’s Wild, which can substitute for any other symbol apart from the Scatter to boost your winnings. A Wild on each of the five reels will trigger a very generous 100x payout on your total bet! The palace symbol is the game’s Scatter.
When you achieve three or more Scatters, you’ll automatically receive 10 free spins in the game’s Bonus Round. Keep your eyes peeled for Tang Sanzang’s students when this occurs. If all three appear on at least three consecutive reels starting from the left side, they will summon a dragon, which swoops across the reels and transforms symbols to give you a bigger prize pot if luck is on your side.
