King Kong Cash Even Bigger Bananas 2 Slot Review
King Kong is a reoccurring figure, but a loveable one. A gorilla so regal deserves a slot or two, and Blueprint Gaming has given him his fair share of the spotlight.
Years after its release, players are still massively fond of The Return of Kong Megaways, though some of the other titles featuring him have been hit-or-miss to some. King Kong Cash Even Bigger Bananas 2 promises to be larger than ever before, but will it be?
We doubt it’ll top the timeless Megaways slot for us, but we hope it does.
Base Game & Features
King Kong Cash Even Bigger Bananas 2 is a 6-reel Video Slot with up to 4,096 ways to win, and betting options between £.€0.10 per spin and £.€25 per spin.
Wins occur from the leftmost reel when 2-6 matching symbols land. Paytable symbols consist of 5 High-paying and 6 Low-paying, with the highest-paying symbol producing wins of 5x your bet for a 6-line winning sequence. Wilds appear on reels 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, substituting for all symbols except Scatter, Cash Collect, and Cash symbols.
King Kong Cash Even Bigger Bananas 2 is a Mid-High volatility slot with a theoretical RTP of 95% and 10,000x your bet max win cap. Autoplay and Turbo Mode are also available to players outside the UK.
Cash Collect Feature
Special Cash symbols appear on reels 1-6 during gameplay. When you initially enter the game, the Collect Kong symbol is active. Landing at least 1 Cash symbol and Collect Kong simultaneously will trigger the Cash Collect Feature. Collect symbols can only appear on reels 1 and 6.
Once active, the Collect Kong symbol will expand to fill the entire reel, collecting all Cash symbols currently in view. In addition, special Cashpot Money symbols can land, awarding the following Jackpot Prizes.
- Mini: 20x your bet
- Minor: 50x your bet
- Major: 200x your bet
- Mega: 2,500x your bet
Once Collect Kong has triggered, the next available Collect symbol unlocks. Collect symbols remain unlocked in the base game and Free Spins round. Triggering the Cash Collect feature with a newly unlocked Collect symbol will unlock the next. This continues until all Collect symbols are unlocked.
- Lock & Spin Collect: Causes all Cash symbols to stick, triggering a Respin
- Win Stepper Collect: Cash symbols will move up or down, filling the entire reel with Cash symbols
- Cash Match Collect: Matches all Cash symbols to the largest value in view
- Super Collect: Causes all Cash symbols in view to be collected multiple times, up to 5
Banana Blitz
Once Super Collect Kong is unlocked in the base game, the Banana Blitz feature is accessible. Once active, any non-collected Cash symbols that land are added to a special Banana Pot. If the pot triggers, pick a Kong to reveal one of the following:
- Banana Collect: Awards all Cash and Golden Monkey symbols on the reels
- Kong Collect: Adds a Collect symbol to reels 1, 6, or both, as well as Cash and Golden Monkey symbols, guaranteeing a win
- Free Spins: Triggers the Free Spins round
- Super Free Spins: Triggers the Super Free Spins round
- Win Spin: Adds a number of High-paying (Kong) symbols to the reels
- Jackpot Wheel: Awards 1 of 4 Jackpot Prizes
- +Spins: Awards +5 Free Spins during a bonus round
Landing a Golden Monkey with any Collect Kong symbol will accumulate the value of all Cash symbols before being collected.
Free Spins
Landing 3 or more Scatters in the base game triggers the Free Spins mode.
- 3 Scatters: 10 Free Spins
- 4 Scatters: 10 Free Spins and 20x your bet
- 5 Scatters: 10 Free Spins and 100x your bet
- 6 Scatters: 10 Free Spins and 500x your bet
During Free Spins, all unlocked Collect Kong symbols remain active. When a Collect symbol hits, the value of all Cash symbols in view is awarded. Each Collect symbol that appears is collected, awarding +5 Free Spins and a Multiplier of x2, x3, x5, and x10.
Super Free Spins
The Super Free Spins round can be triggered via the Banana Blitz feature, awarding 10 Free Spins. Once active, an Upgrade Pick feature is awarded before entry.
- Boost Trail: Enhances the round to Level 2 of Free Spins
- Extra Spins: Awards +5 Free Spins

Our Verdict
King Kong Cash Even Bigger Bananas 2 surprised us with its extensive range of highly engaging features and mechanics. Each spin generates excitement and thrill as you unlock Kong Collect symbols and reel in juicy Cash and Jackpot Prizes.
The gameplay begins with a regular Collect symbol active, but it doesn’t take long to unlock the remaining 4. Each Kong Collect symbol unlocked is better than the one before, offering respins, nudging cash symbols, cash matches, and multiple collections.
Once Super Collect is unlocked, you will face the final hurdle of unlocking the Banana Blitz feature. This feature allows all non-collected Cash symbols to be collected in a special Cashpot, leading to a pick phase where 1 of 7 modifiers is enabled. Banana Blitz may also trigger in both Free Spins and Super Free Spins.
Depending on the number of triggering Scatters, 10 Free Spins and a payout of 20x, 100x, or 500x your bet kick-starts the round. During Free Spins, you’ll find a Retrigger Trail, similar to the Big Bass series. This enables Multipliers that apply to Cash symbols upon collection, up to a maximum of x10.
King Kong Cash Even Bigger Bananas 2 is devoid of Bonus Buy options, so players will have to grind for Free Spins unless they’re fortunate enough to trigger it via the Banana Blitz feature. Super Free Spins is also limited to the Banana Blitz feature, and cannot be triggered manually in the base game.
Kong is always a reliable choice of game, whether it be the original Even Bigger Bananas or the trusty old Return of Kong Megaways. With its similarity to the popular Big Bass Bonanza but without its generic fishing theme, King Kong Cash Even Bigger Bananas 2 promises reliability and entertainment, even if it’s not particularly innovative or different.
