The apish and nightly video slot 9k Kong in Vegas’ developer is 4ThePlayer. Its limited exclusive release is dated October 13, 2022, and mass market release is dated November 15, 2022.

Distributed by Relax Gaming; it uses the Yggdrasil’s platform, alongside the other instalments in the 9k series, including 9k Yeti (November 2019) and 9k Yeti Gigablox (October 2021). Themes: fantasy, nightlife, luxury, card suits, gambling, and personification.

Like Forgotten Island Megaways (All41 Studios; January 2021); 9k Kong in Vegas is adapted from the 1933 movie King Kong whose stylish, adventurous, and title-inspiring ape sojourns in Las Vegas. Eight symbols (club, heart, diamond, and spade suits; bananas, casino tokens, dices, and cocktail) require three to five rightward combinations, while three symbols (King Kong, dinosaur, and flamingo) require two to five combinations whose regular payouts range from $0.08 to $315.00.

9k Kong in Vegas Game Characteristics

The 9k Kong in Vegas’ general features: twelve symbols; eighteen total bets; picker wheel; 1024 nonadjustable winning ways; special features-buying extra bets; over X9200 jackpot; and recurring huge wins and free games.

Clicking “go ape” redirects to the colorful nightlife of Las Vegas—with predominantly golden skyscrapers and towers neighboring casinos—amid star-studded purple skies, backgrounding the 9k Kong in Vegas’ crimson-celled and gold-framed 5X5 grid.

9k Kong in Vegas has these total bets: $0.40 (minimum), $0.50, $0.70, $1.00, $1.50, $2.00, $2.50, $3.00, $4.00, $5.00, $7.00, $10.00, $15.00, $20.00, $30.00, $40.00, $50.00, and $70.00 (maximum).

9k Kong in Vegas’ two special symbols: a substituting colorful retro “Kong Wild” sign; and a free games-activating golden-and-purple “Kong Free Spins” sky scraper.

Ordinary symbols: the bejeweled, red-vested King Kong’s purplish head; white-shirted, open-mouthed and green dragon; bunch of three bananas; beflowered, ornamented and golden-haired songstress flamingo; coconut cocktail; white-piped red dices; white-and-blue casino tokens; and gold-framed red spade, blue heart, green diamond and purple club suits.

Below are the 9k Kong in Vegas’ odds.
Three, four or five combinations: clubs/diamonds pay X0.20, X0.50, and X1; hearts/spades pay X0.20, X0.60, and X1.20; casino tokens/dices pay X0.40, X0.70, and X1.50; and cocktails/bananas pay X0.50, X1.50, and X2.50.

Two, three, four, or five combinations: flamingos pay X0.20, X0.70, X2, and X3; dinosaurs pay X0.20, X1, X2.50, and X3.50; and Kong pays X0.50, X2.50, X3, and X4.50.

By clicking the bottom-right “xtra bet” icon, the players can place X1.50 the usual bet; this boosts the probability of the free games by 150%. Winnings exceeding X10 the bet automatically activate the huge wins-repeating rounds. Three “Kong free spins” skyscrapers in the odd reels prompt ten free games, with recurring spins and wins.

Fortunately, players can—via the top-right “buy feature” icon—pay extra for guaranteed recurrences of the huge wins and free games modes.

The 9k Kong in Vegas’ “big win repeater” feature costs (X50 the usual bet): $20.00, $25.00, $35.00, $50.00, $75.00, $100.00, $125.00, $150.00, $200.00, $250.00, $350.00, $500.00, $750.00, $1000.00, $1500.00, $2000.00, $2500.00, or $3500.00.

The “10 free spins” package costs (X85 the usual bet): $34.00, $42.50, $59.50, $85.00, $127.50, $170.00, $212.50, $255.00, $340.00, $425.00, $595.00, $850.00, $1275.00, $1700.00, $2550.00, $3400.00, $4250.00, or $5950.00.

The huge win’s recurrence mechanics (two rounds): after a big win presentation, the ape climbs and pauses beside a 20-segment picker wheel whose (after spinning) golden pointer then randomly pinpoints one of its blue or red segments—blue half for “repeat win” [X2 win multiplier, once or twice] and red half for “collect” [ends the round; player claims the unsuccessfully (re)staked win].

A back-to-back win repeater prompts yet another picker wheel whose “repeat win” section is comparatively smaller—low probability of another repeated win.

In the buyable free games, players have several chances of spinning the picker wheel whose pointer resets the free games, with recurring huge wins. Non-progressive jackpot: X9216, or $645120.00.

The 9k Kong in Vegas software: HTML5 technology; desktop/mobile versions; 5/10/25/50/100/infinite auto play, with X5/X10/X20/X50/limitless loss limits and/or single win limits.

Sounds: ambient lounge music; and ringing, police siren, whirring helicopter, growl, thudding ape, mouth-opening dinosaur, chinking, and jingling effects.

The animated 3D graphics include: gushing bananas, gems, and coins; nodding, restless, and tower-climbing ape; snarling dragon, roving light beams, glittering, bouncing dices, and helicopter’s fly-by.
