Legend of the Golden Monkey Slot Review

Legend of the Golden Monkey is a video slot from Yggdrasil Gaming with 5 reels and the All Ways Pay function. This slot was originally released in 2016 and can be played at online casinos such as CasinoCruiseTwin Casino or Guts.

Theme and basic information

With Legend of the Golden Monkey we’re taken to the far and ancient East, where the Monkey King ruled. He’s the main character in the game and appears randomly throughout, busting his kung fu moves and surprising us every time we see him. He’s a mythological figure from Chinese legend, also known as Sun Wukong.

The slot is beautifully drawn and looks as stunning as any of the Yggdrasil Gaming slots. On the reels you’ll find a cauldron, a goblet, a shield, a scroll, a crown and a potion. Goblet, cauldron and scroll are the highest value symbols, paying out between 150 and 250 coins for a 5-of-a-kind win. There are also the card suit symbols on the reels, diamonds, clubs, spades and hearts.

Whilst the Monkey King doesn’t get his own symbol, you’ll see him pop up and jump around often enough.

This game pays all ways, which means, as long as at least three matching symbols (or wilds) are adjacent to each other on the reels from left to right, you’ll get a winning combination. That includes winning combinations beginning on reel 2 or 3.

You can play this game from €0.25 to €125.

Random features in the base game

There are two different kinds of wilds, one staying between 3 and 5 spins on the middle reels. And another that can land on reels 2 and 4, staying there for as long as you keep winning. When both appear on at the same time, which happens often enough, wins can accumulate quickly.

The main attraction in the base game, is the Monkey King himself. When jumps onto the reels randomly, he will usually change a symbol to give you as much of an advantage as possible. That includes adding either of the two wilds, changing a symbol into another one to create the best possible winning combination, leaving a free spin symbol on the reels, if you already have two, or adding a bonus chest on reel 5.

The bonus chest can randomly spin on reel 5 anyway, where it lands and pops open to reveal a coin prize from 40 to 1,000 coins or even give you free spins.

Three free spin modes

Whichever way you activate the free spins, when you do get them, you’ll be offered the choice between three free spin modes:

  • 6 spins with incremental wilds: after each spin a wild is added to the reels where it stays sticky
  • 8 spins with a stacked wild: a wild stacked three high is added to reel 3
  • 10 spins with a starting wild: a sticky wild is added to the middle of reel 3, where it stays sticky throughout

You’ll get the most wilds when you choose the incremental wilds, which will also almost guarantee at least three winning spins once you have at least three wilds on the reels. But the other options aren’t too bad either. We recommend you try them all.

Conclusion: Quirky slot with good wins

The theoretical RTP (Return to Player) of Legend of the Golden Monkey is 96.1%, which is just average and therefore not a big deal. Whether or not you feel like a winner, depends on how soon you might be able to activate the free spins and how often you see the Monkey King on the reels. It does help, that this slot pays all ways, so wins tend to be relatively frequent. But the slot is pretty volatile, which means wins aren’t always big.

Indeed, smaller wins are more likely and even the free spins might not make up for that. That said, Legend of the Golden Monkey tends to be a very fun slot and you won’t get boring anytime soon. The Monkey King shows up often enough to not only keep you entertained, but to also help you keep your funds up. We quite enjoyed playing the game and would certainly come back to it.
