Game Overview

If you’ve been visiting our PG Soft demo page regularly, you’ll know that the provider has really upped their game and released some magnificent looking slot games that have become incredibly popular with their fans. Last time out, we took Cash Mania through its paces, which we really enjoyed, so we’re excited again today to see what’s on offer in the developer’s latest title, the Wild Ape #3258 slot. A quick run through the basic stats reveals this to be a 6-reel game with up to 32,400 paylines, an RTP of 96.75%, and a maximum win of 10,000x the bet.

PG has made sure this is a release set to entertain, with several features included to keep you glued to your screens. Firstly, this is a cascading reels game, so you’ll see all symbols involved in a win removed from the playfield, with new ones dropping from above for more chances to win. There’s the PG favourite Wilds on the Way modifier, too, which sees golden framed symbols appear and transform into wilds if they are part of a win. The main part of the game, though, is the ape, located in the centre of the reels. If unlocked in the base game, he will turn into a multiplier wild, increasing in value by x2 each time he is part of a win. Trigger the free spins bonus, and he will be unlocked from the start, helping you to create potentially huge wins.

We’ve taken you on plenty of ape adventures here at Demoslot in the past and this looks as though it could be another fun one. So, why not try all of the features out for yourself and fire up our Wild Ape demo slot, it’s free to play below.

Wild Ape Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols

Wild Ape Slot Paytable

You’ll find several online free play slots here at Demoslot themed around monkeys and gorillas, with some game providers opting to use to create slots in this genre more than others. One of the best examples of this would be Blueprint Gaming slots, which have developed a number of casino games and slots based on Kong, with King Kong Cash Even Bigger Bananas being one of the better known releases. Browsing through our free Pragmatic slots page will also provide you with plenty of other games in this niche, with their Gorilla Mayhem slot a go-to game for many players. There’s quite a bit of monkey business there to keep you occupied for a while when you’re done with PG Soft’s Wild Ape, but for now, let’s discover more about its features starting over at the pays section.

It’s time to work through the paytable, and the most valuable symbol in the game is the Crown, with returns of 7.5x for a winning combination of six. This is followed by the Watch at 2.5x, a Bottle of Spirits at 1.5x, the Drink at 1x, with the final two premium payers being the Slice of Pizza and Banana, sharing payouts of 0.75x for a full line of six. Moving on to the low pays, we find these represented by the royals where the Ace, King, Queen, Jack, and Ten all have equal returns of 0.2x if six match across a payline. The game also features a self-titled Wild symbol, which substitutes for regular symbols.

Players are presented with a good selection of bets on Wild Ape, with the minimum price to play starting at €0.60 and topping out at €180 a spin. The lowest value stake here on the demo game may seem high compared to other slots, and when playing at an online casino for real money, you’ll find the entry point is much lower.

Wild Ape Slot Base Game & Modifiers

If you’re familiar with Megaways slots, you’ll have a good idea of how the reel mechanics work on Wild Ape. The game is played over a 6×6 reel matrix, where each separate reel can display between 2 and 6 symbols on every spin. This allows the slot to deliver between 256 and 32,400 ways to win on every spin. Players will be awarded a win if three or more matching symbols land on consecutive reels beginning from the leftmost reel first.

All winning combinations will activate the tumbling reels mechanic, which removes the symbols in the win from the reel, allowing space for new ones to fall from above. This can lead to several winning connections from just one paid spin.

Wild Transformation

On any spin, symbols on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5 may have a golden frame around them. If these help to form part of a winning combination, they will transform into a wild symbol.

Wild Bored Ape

At the start of a spin, the Wild Bored Ape on reels 3 and 4 is deactivated and locked by two chained padlocks. Two wins are required in one paid spin for both chains to be removed, and once activated; the Ape will have a Wild Multiplier of 2x. Each subsequent win he is a part of will see his value increase by a further 2x, with his value resetting to zero and the chains reapplied once you fail to make a new winning connection.

Wild Ape Slot Bonus Features

Wild Ape Slot Free Spins Feature

Four scatter symbols appearing in the base game will trigger the bonus round and award 10 free spins, with each additional scatter after the 4th adding two extra spins to the starting total.

Free Spins Feature

During the free spins, the Wild Ape begins unlocked with a multiplier of 2x already in place. Each win he is a part of will increase his value by 2x, and his value will not reset between losing spins. Players can also re-trigger the feature by landing four or more scatters in view.

Pros

  • A very slick design and excellent graphics.
  • High RTP and a good max win of 10,000x bet.
  • The wild multiplier in the base game can award some great wins.

Cons

  • It can be frustrating at times to get two winning connections in the base game to unlock the ape.

Wild Ape Slot Review Final Thoughts

PG Soft has been on a real roll lately with some fantastic releases. I mentioned Cash Mania earlier, and prior to that, we had the outstanding Gemstones Gold and Fortune Dragon, both of which have racked up the spins here at Demoslot.I imagine that Wild Ape will go on to be another hugely successful release for PG, and it's good to see them move away from the portrait style slot games, even if it may just turn out to be a one off.
