Monkey King is the Playboy Casino (also written Play8oy) slot for Journey to the West fans. The reels are set against green cliffs and a sea view, and the cast is all there: Sun Wukong in his golden circlet, a horned demon lord in blue armour, and two heroines, one in a jewelled headdress and one with white hair and a pink flower. It plays on nine lines, and every one of them pays in both directions.

Symbols and what they pay

The Game Rules page shows the nine line shapes and states that wins are paid separately from left to right and right to left. Per line credit, for five / four / three:

  • Sun Wukong: 1000 / 200 / 50
  • Horned demon lord: 400 / 80 / 20
  • Heroine in the headdress: 200 / 40 / 15
  • White-haired heroine: 160 / 30 / 10
  • Green palm-leaf fan: 100 / 20 / 7
  • Red gourd: 60 / 15 / 5
  • Golden headband: 40 / 10 / 3
  • Bamboo scroll: 20 / 5 / 2

Below that is an All Same row, a prize for a screen full of one symbol: 5000 for Wukong, 2500 for the demon, then 1000, 500, 400, 150, 100 and 50. The small print says it is paid only once in that case.

A small win, step by step

02 Three golden headbands paying 30 on line 8, with a Bonus tile on reel five

In our capture three golden headbands landed on line 8 from the left. At Play 10 and 3 credits for three headbands, that is 30, which matches the win bar. On the same spin a red Bonus tile sat on reel five.

Wild and Bonus

The General Wild is a monkey holding a Wild sign. It "replaces all symbols except" the Bonus tile. The rules page also has a diagram of two wilds on the middle row turning into a longer wild bar, which points to wilds spreading when more than one lands. The picture is cut off in our screenshot, so check the i page for the exact rule and for what the Bonus tile triggers.

Betting and pacing

Nine lines are fixed; Play is the credit per line, so Play 10 costs 90 a spin. Two-way pays roughly double your chances on the cheap symbols, which keeps a session ticking, while the real money sits with Wukong and the demon lord. A mid-range Play and a set number of spins is a sensible way to use it.

If you like the theme, Dragon Palace Wukong puts the same hero in a fish-shooting game, and Monkey Story is another Journey to the West title in this app. The rest of the lobby is in the Playboy Casino overview; get a Play8oy game ID to try it.

Questions players ask

What is the 'All Same' row in the paytable?

A prize for filling the whole screen with one symbol, from 50 for the bamboo scroll up to 5000 for Sun Wukong. The table notes that the win is only paid once in that case, not once per line.

Is this the Yggdrasil Monkey King slot?

Nothing in the screenshots names a provider, so we would not assume so. The two-way pays and All Same row follow the same format as God of Wealth in this app.
