The theme of the slot carries a jungle presence and the royal card symbols from 9 through to Ace make up the lower value symbols, with wins from as low as 0.1x up 1.5x achievable through them. The premium value symbols of the game are made up of the Snake, Crocodile, Tiger, and Gorilla, and a single 6 of a kind win will pay 2x, 2.5x, 5, & 50x respectively.

Staking options see the minimum bet to play all 4 sets of reels start at just €0.50 a spin, with the maximum stake reaching €50. There are a total of 4 bet sizes ranging from €2 down to the minimum stake, which we feel is a good enough spread for players to be able to find a bet size that is comparable to their bankroll.

Throughout the Blueprint Gaming Megaways™ catalogue there are countless games that incorporate the highly entertaining cascading reels feature, these include classic titles such as Rick and Morty Megaways™. Gorilla Gold Megaways™ runs on a 117,649 Megaways™ format, and history tells us that those style of slots come packaged with the cascading mechanic, and that also happens to be the case with Gorilla Gold.   

Those of you unaware of how this exciting feature works will see symbols that are part of a winning combination removed from the reels. New symbols will then drop down to fill the spaces that have been left, this will continue until no further winning connections can be formed.

The cascading reels mechanic, or sometimes referred to as Tumbling Reels, can be very useful in maintaining your balance at a steady amount throughout play in the base game. Large amounts of Megaways™ can lead to several cascades and multiple winning combos, which can result in 100s of times your stake being paid as a win. 

There are in fact two parts to the free spin bonus on Gorilla Gold Megaways™ and we will explain both of these to you. Firstly there is the standard feature, and landing 4 or more diamond scatters anywhere in view on a set of reels will trigger the Gorilla Gold Bonus.

This will see a wheel appear and then spin on the game reels where you will be awarded your free spin total for the bonus, or where you could head straight to the super spins bonus which we will explain shortly. If you can hit more than 4 scatters then you will have the chance to be awarded with more spins which you can see below.

• 4 Scatters - Win up to 20 Free Spins.
• 5 Scatters - Win up to 25 Free Spins.
• 6 Scatters - Win up to 30 Free Spins.
• 7 Scatters - Win up to 35 Free Spins.

As seen with other Blueprint Megaways™ titles that include Diamond Mine Extra Gold Megaways™, once your free spin amount has been awarded you are given the option to gamble your free spins to try and win more if you wish to.

As the standard free spin bonus begins you will be awarded a multiplier that will start at the value of x1. This will be a very familiar sight for any seasoned Megaways™ player, but for those who are new to the concept of the unlimited multiplier, each time you hit a successful winning combination of symbols your multiplier will increase by x1 in value.

Additional free spins may be won through a re-trigger, and this is achieved with the diamond scatter symbols appearing on the upper reel. Three scatters will award 5 extra spins, whilst 4 scatters will add 10 extra spins to your current tally. 

Without a doubt the most exciting part of Gorilla Gold Megaways™ is the super spin free spin bonus. This can be triggered through 9 or more of the scatter symbols landing across all 4 sets of reels, as well as it being randomly awarded through the Gorilla Gold Bonus on the standard feature wheel.

When this bonus round begins you will start with just the first set of reels in play, and as with the standard bonus feature an unlimited multiplier will be in place. The magic happens through the collecting of Gorilla Tokens, and successfully collecting the required amounts will unlock the additional reel sets, below we have listed how many tokens are required. 

• Collect 5 tokens to unlock reel set 2.
• Collect 15 tokens to unlock reel set 3.
• Collect 30 tokens to unlock reel set 4.

Each additional reel set that you unlock will award you with 5 extra spins, and the really amazing part to this bonus is that each win you achieve on any reel set will add an extra x1 to you multiplier.

Players should note that if during the super spins free spin feature you win less than 100x your stake, you will be awarded 5 additional free spins. This will continue to happen until you have won over 100x your placed bet on the bonus round.

Some of Blueprint's best slots within the Megaways™ series feature the mystery symbol. This game symbol can appear anywhere on the reels multiple times, and then once the reels have stopped spinning they will all transform to reveal the same randomly selected symbol from the paytable.

Throughout the Blueprint Megaways™ library this symbol has historically produced some massive wins on slots such as Irish Riches Megways™, especially when it makes an appearance during a bonus round when a high value multiplier is in play.

Blueprint Gaming have once again been the first to add a new twist to the Megaways™ mechanic, and although quad reels are not a new thing by any stretch of the imagination, they are certainly a new concept to the Megaways™ niche. It will be very interesting to see if other providers follow suit and try this idea if Gorilla Gold Megaways™ turns out to be as successful as we think it will be.

Players will probably associate the collecting of the tokens to enhance your bonus to Blueprint's earlier Megaways™ release, Return of Kong Megaways™, where you can collect trophies to increase the minimum amount of paylines you will receive each spin. That proved be an idea that players loved, and Blueprint have taken it one step further this time and with it raised the big win paying potential to the limit.

This could well prove to be one of the best Megaways™ releases of 2020, but don't just take our word for it, give the free play a try and see what you think.
