An alpha gorilla inspired the Ainsworth-developed October 2020 slot Congo King. Subtitled “Quad Shot”, a four-jackpot mechanism, it is in a gaming line whose other games are: Coral Dreams, Big Thunder (2018), Emerald Dream (May 2018), Mega Choice, Gold Zone (2016),
Diamond Dreams (2016), Run with the Wolves (2018), Royal Swan (2020), Knight’s Honor, Soul Queen (2017), Island Princess (2018), Jade Emperor (2017), Golden Lion (2016), Pearl River (2018), and Mighty Panther (2016).

The Congo King’s themes: dominance hierarchy, gems, wildlife, kingship, rainforest ecosystem, and exploration. General features: wins-multiplying free spins, with two-way wins; non-progressive jackpots; three batches of 25 to 100 lines; rightward regular combinations; eight coins; and fourteen symbols.

Congo King Game Characteristics

The lush and misty Congo Basin—amid lichen-coated trees—backgrounds the Congo King’s transparent and partitioned 5X3 grid, with a fissured and greenish stony frame.

Congo King has a set of three total bets for the three batches of winning ways.
The 25 lines: $1.00 (minimum bet), $2.00, $4.00, $6.00, $8.00, $12.00, $16.00, and $20.00.
The 50 ways: $2.00, $4.00, $8.00, $12.00, $16.00, $24.00, $32.00, and $40.00.

Congo King has four special symbols: a substituting alpha “wild” gorilla; free spins-activating leafy green-and-golden “Congo King” (scatter); misty castle (potentially embedded with X3/X5 win multipliers in free games); and jackpot-facilitating blue-and-orange “Quad Shot” frame.

Ten ordinaries: touring redhead in tank top; snarling leopard; ruby crystal; headlit green jeep; purple A; orange K; golden Q; green 9; red 10; and blue J.
