Play King Bam Bam for Free

If there's one thing that stands out about Stakelogic software, it is that the company has a knack for taking familiar themes and giving them a bit of an upgrade. That is no more evident that in King Bam Bam, a 5-reel video slot that offers the tried and tested genre of the jungle in stunning high definition clarity and with amazing 3D animations.

That action is refreshingly unique, as a matter of fact, giving punters the chance to enjoy something that is a little bit out of the ordinary. The reason being is that the symbols don't simply appear upon a revolving reel, but they drop down from above to create a formidable block of 5x4. Should a combination of three or more matching blocks form a pattern in accordance to the game's payline, then a winning prize will be given from the paytable of line bet multipliers below:

After every successful spin, players will be in for a chance to win again thanks to the game's cascading reels feature. This essentially means that the winning blocks will disappear, allowing new symbols to fall into place with every possibility that a new formation will be created.

We have some bad news and some good news. The bad news is that this video slot doesn't offer any “free spins”. The good news, however, is that the game does give players some “free drops” (which are essentially the same thing!).

In fact, spinners will be treated to 10, 15, or 25 free games if they manage to find three, four or five pure golden blocks on the reels in any position. What's more, these free drops will be played on new reels with a different paytable for bigger winning opportunities. Plus, a wild symbol will be added to the reels after every spin to help players fill in the gaps between all line bet multiplier paying symbols.

One of the most interesting things about this slot machine is the fact that it gives players extra control in the wagering department with a unique “Bet XXL” feature. This essentially allows players to increase their overall stakes by 50% or 100% in return for some special bonus boosts.

The feature can be toggled by selecting one of the three skulls that appear at the bottom right hand corner of the screen, with the following consequences:

- Bet XXL level 1: players play with the standard total stakes as offered by the game (40, 80, 120, 160 and 200 credits) with no special symbols added to the reels.

- Bet XXL level 2: spinners will increase the standard betting options by 50% (60, 120, 180, 240 and 300 credits) with the added bonus of wilds added to the reels.

- Bet XXL level 3: punters will raise the stakes by 100% (effectively doubling the normal stakes to 80, 160, 240, 320 and 400 credits) with wilds and multiplier wilds worth up to x6 added to the reels.

King Bam Bam is a fine example of what modern game development can achieve with its spectacular 3D spinning action and interactive gameplay, allowing punters to bring in new bonus symbols for higher stakes.

Admittedly, the game's theme is far from being new and unique, and there are elements of the NetEnt slot machine Gonzo's Quest in the design and cascading reels feature. However, the game is sure to provide many entertaining spins if you are in the market for a slot with an exciting exotic vibe.
