Blueprint Gaming's King Kong Cash series has been printing money since 2016. The original spawned over a dozen variants, and Even Bigger Bananas 2 keeps the formula alive: 6 reels, 4 rows, 4,096 ways to win, and a Cash Collect system that progressively unlocks across your session. RTP sits at 95.00%, volatility is medium-high, and the max win drops to 10,000x - a meaningful cut from the predecessor's ceiling.
The bet range runs £0.10 to £25.00. With a 1-in-370 chance of hitting max win, the math profile leans toward frequent mid-range triggers rather than a single explosive moment. That fits the collect-and-progress design.
The core hook is five Kong Collect variants that unlock sequentially during play. You start with basic Collect - a Kong symbol lands on reel 1 or 6, expands to cover the reel, and scoops up every Banana Cash symbol's value. Simple enough.
But each time Collect triggers in the base game, a new Kong unlocks. Lock & Spin holds initiating cash values in place while active reels respin until no new cash lands. Win Stepper fills an entire reel with cash values by stepping symbols up or down. Cash Match upgrades every cash symbol to match the highest one in view. Super Collect runs the entire collection sequence up to five times.
Once all five are active, they stay active for the rest of your session. That's the carrot - early spins feel lean, but the game gets progressively richer as you unlock more collection tools.
After Super Collect, uncollected banana symbols start feeding into a Banana Pot. When the pot triggers, you pick a Kong to reveal one of seven outcomes: Banana Collect, Kong Collect, Bonus (Free Spins), Super Bonus (Super Free Spins), Win Spin, Jackpot Wheel, or additional spins during Free Spins. Banana Blitz is the gateway to Super Free Spins - there's no other entry point.
The Jackpot Wheel offers four tiers: Mini at 20x, Minor at 50x, Major at 200x, and Mega at 2,500x your total bet. Those values are fixed. At max bet (£25), the Mega pays £62,500 - significant but well short of the 10,000x theoretical cap.
Three or more scatters trigger 10 Kong Free Spins. The scatter payout scales: 3 scatters award the spins alone, 4 add 20x your bet, 5 add 100x, and 6 add a hefty 500x bonus on top of the 10 spins. All unlocked Kong Collect symbols carry over into the round.
The multiplier trail pushes the action. Collecting 3 Kong symbols adds 5 extra spins and a 2x multiplier on cash values. At 6 collects you get 3x, 9 collects hits 5x, and 12 reaches 10x. That final tier is where the 10,000x cap becomes reachable - fill the grid with cash symbols at 10x collection and the numbers stack fast.
Super Kong Free Spins, accessible only through Banana Blitz, start with a Pick an Upgrade: Boost Trail (jump straight to the 2x level), Extra Spins, additional Golden Monkeys, Golden Barrels, or more Kong Collect symbols on the reels. The upgrade selection shapes the round's potential before a single spin plays.
Two premium cash symbols add layers to the collect system. Golden Monkey accumulates the value of every cash symbol in view before being collected itself - it's essentially a value multiplier disguised as a symbol. Golden Barrel connects to the jackpot pot tiers (Mini through Mega), triggered when a Cashpot money symbol lands alongside a collect.
Both symbols gain importance in Super Free Spins where the upgrade picks increase their reel presence.
The predecessor in this series had a max win ceiling reported anywhere from 20,000x to 50,000x depending on the source. Even Bigger Bananas 2 halves that at minimum, settling at 10,000x. For a medium-high volatility game with this many layered features, 10,000x feels conservative. Blueprint's own Goonies Megaways hits 10,000x too but runs a different engine entirely.
The buy bonus costs 99x your bet. That's about average for a 10,000x potential game - you need a 101x return just to break even. The progression unlock system doesn't reset between spins (it's session-persistent), which means the bought feature runs with all five Kong variants already active. That's a meaningful advantage over grinding from scratch.
King Kong Cash Even Bigger Bananas 2 is designed for players who enjoy watching a system build rather than waiting for a single trigger. The five-stage unlock creates a gameplay loop that most 4,096-ways slots don't attempt. Whether the reduced max win matters depends on what you're after - the original's higher ceiling attracted volatility chasers, while this sequel trades raw potential for a more layered collection game.
