The Kong franchise has grown into one of the studio’s strongest performing series
Blueprint Gaming has released Kong Even More Money, a new Kong title built around the character himself growing in size, from a 2×2 Collect symbol to a 5×5 Collect over the course of the bonus round.
Since King Kong Cash introduced Blueprint’s cash-collecting ape, the Kong franchise has grown into one of the studio’s strongest performing series, with each release giving Kong more ways to gather wins.
Scale is the theme of the new game. The Even More Monkey Bonus Round starts with three spins and a 2×2 Kong Collect. Level Up symbols expand Kong through four stages, adding extra spins and collection power on the way to 5×5, while the Green Pot upgrade can move the action onto a larger 8×5 grid.
Three Feature Upgrade Pots, filled by Red, Blue and Green Bonus Scatter symbols, shape each session. They can trigger on any spin, alone or together, to apply a multiplier, load the reels with extra Cash Prizes and Level Up symbols, or, through the Green Pot, add rows up to an 8×5 grid.
In the base game, Kong Collect symbols on reel five gather Cash Prizes, and a Banana Pot fills with every Banana and Cash Prize symbol before bursting into the Banana Blitz pick feature. Kong Even More Money is available now to Blueprint’s operator partners.
James Raraty, Product Roadmap Manager at Blueprint Gaming, said: “King Kong Cash gave us a character players connect with, and each Kong game since has given him more to do. In Kong Even More Money, Kong grows as the session goes on, and his expansion from 2×2 to 5×5 is the centrepiece of the bonus. The Feature Upgrade Pots change how each bonus starts. Depending on which colours have filled, players can enter with extra rows, a multiplier or reels loaded with Cash Prizes.
“Kong has a strong following across our markets, and this release gives players the biggest version of the character we have built so far.”
