A Simple Basic Slot Game – Funky Monkey

Funky Monkey is a slot with extremely accessible rules and management system. Its payouts table is located directly on the playing field. Looking to the right of the reels, the player can find out the payouts for each icon, taking into account the made bet. This is very convenient, because it allows the user not to be distracted during the game process.

Animalistic adventures

Offering only one payline, Funky Monkey is the most basic style of slot game available, both online and in real life. The limited amount of paylines reduces the player’s chance of winning a prize, which can be off-putting for many casino players. However, this new title is the perfect style of game for those that are new to the slots genre on a whole, as it gives them the chance to gain a better understanding of how such the games work. With minimal distractions through flashing lights and cheesy gimmicks, there is something to be said for the simplicity of Funky Monkey.

Embrace the funk

The graphics provided within this game are entertaining and different from what you might expect. In the top left hand side of the screen, is the Funky Monkey himself, holding a bongo, wearing a purple suit, and grinning away. He is the ultimate happy-go-lucky mascot that is enough to encourage anyone to continue playing. The rest of the screen is green in colour, which allows the Funky Monkey to stand out from the backdrop, adding a little bit of extra mischief to the game.

King of the jungle

The pay table for the game is available at the top of the reels, so that players are able to see exactly what they can win throughout the duration of play, and the payouts available are decent too – with prizes up to 2,500x the base bet amount being made available to win!

Underneath the three slot reels, there are three buttons, one of which reads ‘bet one’. The ‘bet one’ button increases the bet being placed and the amount of money that can be won. At the lowest bet amount, the prizes to be won vary from 10x to 800x the wager amount; the middle of the pay table shows that a player can win between 20x and 1,600x the amount that has been placed, and the highest betting section available gives players to opportunity to win between 30x and 2,500x the amount that has been bet. These prizes are extremely high for such a basic and simplistic game, and can be very inviting for some players.

Trickling down prizes

Upon first glance, the prizes seem promising, although a little on the low side. It is clearly shown that for any three symbols on a line, you will win four times the betted amount. This is an excellent bankroll-boosting feature that shouldn’t be dismissed out of hand. Saying that, if you truly want to win big you’ll need to keep an eye out for the seldom seen symbols in the game. The higher prizes are offered for the more rarely seen symbols, and believe us when we say that they allow you to win a decent amount of money. Blowing the standard 4x multiplier out of the water, should the symbols fall in your favour, you could be granted a multiplier of anything up to 800x!

Swing from branch to branch

The high prizes to be won are further complimented by the low wagering requirements. Starting at just 0.05 per spin, and slowly increasing to 5.00 per spin, this game is applicable for all budgets. Furthering that, offering such low betting amounts means that this slot game can be thoroughly enjoyed, without the fear of losing too much money. For beginners, this game proves to be extremely friendly and there is something to be said for that for sure.
