3 Dancing Monkeys Slot Introduction

The 3 Dancing Monkeys slot is one of the slots from the Pragmatic Play stable.

It is played on a 5x3 layout that generates 243 bet ways paying left to right. There is a wild symbol on reels 2, 3 and 4, which substitutes for all symbols other than the gems. Three gem symbols appear on every reel in the base game and can randomly trigger three bonuses in the free spins round.

A mystery symbol can land during the free spins, offering to either trigger more free games or add an instant cash reward. The max win is limited to x12077 the wager in the base game and free spins. The latter can be bought for x100 the total wager, and a random combination of two gems is guaranteed.

Theme

This is one of the designer’s slots with an Asian theme, where the monkey plays a big role in creating lots of bonuses. As a symbol from the Chinese zodiac, this is no surprise. Given that it has metal as its fixed element, you can hope gold is coming.

Symbols

The main winning symbols, including lanterns, fruit, and the Feng Shui coins, reflect the theme. They are all beautifully designed and combine with the cartoon cheery monkeys on the reels.

Soundtrack

This is a little strange and does not fit the theme of the game.

3 Dancing Monkeys Review - Our Verdict 

Plenty of bonuses exist, but the number of free games is another disappointment. Also, some features are simply applied at random. The bet spread is good, and the variance is high, but the game may only appeal to players with a high-risk tolerance who are looking for slots with these values.
