GONZO’S QUEST ONLINE SLOT REVIEW

• Progressive Jackpot: No
• Software: NetEnt
• Paylines: 20
• Reels: 5
• RTP: 96%

Gonzo’s Quest is a five-reel, 20-payline game brought to you by NetEnt. Given its producer, the graphics and animation that can be seen in Gonzo’s Quest are on-point, crisp and dynamic. The game follows the quest of Gonzalo Pizarro, or just Gonzo, as he plows through the Amazon jungle to find the lost city of gold, El Dorado.

From the get-go, you will immediately notice that Gonzo’s Quest plays differently from most online slots since you won’t see normal spinning wheels. In its place, you will see stone boxes with different Mayan-themed symbols - which are called Avalanche Reels - falling from above. When you manage to form combinations, these boxes explode and disappear.

The remaining symbols will then fall into the gaps with new symbols filling in the gaps to complete more winning combinations. The multiplier meter that can be seen at the top right-hand corner of the screen will go from 1x to 2x and eventually, to 3x and 5x.

Without a doubt, this game’s centerpiece is Gonzo himself. Dressed in traditional conquistador garb, don’t be fooled if he looks bored by what's going on around him. Make a winning combination and he leaps in joyful excitement, fist-pumping, dancing, and at times, even moonwalking, when you get a really good payout.

The rest of the screen is just as vibrant, with a gorgeous-looking Inca temple in the background, a flowing fountain of water gushing to the right side and lush green foliage complimenting it all. Here’s a tip: Don’t miss watching the opening sequence. Trust us, it’s worth the time.

FEATURE SYMBOLS

As mentioned, the graphics seen in Gonzo’s Quest are crisp, and that includes the symbols. Intricately made, these stone block carvings remind you of ancient South American cultures. The blocks’ values are discerned by color, ranging from lowest to highest value, with light blue, red, orange, purple, brown, green and blue. The two special symbols are a gold “Free Fall” block with a face in the middle and a wild symbol featuring a gold question mark that can be found inside a gold circle.

BONUS ROUNDS

You won’t find any new innovations in Gonzo’s Quest when talking about bonus rounds. Line up the “Free Fall” blocks and you’ll get 10 re-spins. The Free Fall mode raises the multiplier, and the player can receive as much as 15X free spins in this mode. Be on the lookout for this bonus coin symbol that you can land pretty often.

When they do fall, watch in amusement as Gonzo tries to catch as many as he possibly can with his metal helmet. The Avalanche feature is also something to behold, where the symbols fall in place separately onto the reels. They immediately explode once you land a winning bit line with more symbols dropping to fill up the gaps. Every additional win you get is multiplied to bolster your payout.
