Aloha King Elvis

Aloha King Elvis Review

The Elvis Frog slot became a popular creation, well-received for its original theme and entertaining gameplay. Now, a follow-up called Aloha King Elvis transports the frog to the tropics and brings adjustments to features.

As the title hints, Aloha King Elvis makes a switch in the theme, moving to the sunny islands of Hawaii. The developers decided to retain the visual style, so expect cartoonish visuals. The game also utilizes the same 5x3 reel layout, producing 25 ways to play on each spin for the players.

Playable on any device, the slot caters to any kind of punter, accepting bets from just €0.25 to €50 per spin. Higher stakes are possible with the Extra Bet feature though, which gives you 2.5x chances of hitting the features. You can set the Extra Bet for increased free spins or respins trigger chance, or activate both at a time. The variance remained at the same level, namely medium-high. However, the rest of the stats have been significantly lowered. The RTP has dropped way below average to 94.92%, and the max win has been reduced to 2,000x the bet.

The symbol collection of the Aloha King Elvis slot comprises 8 regulars, split into highs and lows. At the lower end, the pay symbols start with classic A-J card ranks, and the higher lot includes in ascending order drums, guitars, vans, and a lady frog. Winning combinations are created when at least 3 matching symbols land adjacently starting from the leftmost reel. A five-symbol winning line of card ranks is worth 2x your bet, and the premiums pay from 8x to 20x your bet. Elvis Frog himself appears in the form of a Wild symbol, acting as a substitute for all other regular symbols. Wilds are available on all reels and can also create combos of their own, paying 20x your bet for five-of-a-kind.

Aloha King Elvis Slot Features

Tiki symbols are Scatters, and whenever 3 appears simultaneously on reels 1, 3, and 5, players receive access to the Free Spins. Once activated, a selection screen will appear, offering two different feature modes, as follows:

• Special Guest Party - awards 5 Free Spins with the three middle reels merged into a single Giant reel, where 3x3 symbols appear. If the Giant Scatter symbol drops on the reels, an additional 3 free spins are awarded.
• VIP Party - awards 8 Free Spins with low symbols removed from the reels. In case another 3 Scatter symbols appear, an additional 8 free spins are awarded.

Look out for Coin Symbols, which have random bet multiplier values ranging from 1x to 20x. When 6 or more lands anywhere on the reels during the base game or free spins, the Coin Respin feature comes into play.

The triggering symbols lock in place and players proceed to a special set of reels where only cash symbols are available with 3 initial Respins awarded. During the bonus, each new Coin symbol that lands on the grid turns sticky as well and resets the Respins counter back to 3. Additionally, special Coin Collect symbols can randomly appear, which collect all visible cash values and add the sum of Coin multipliers to their own.

More than that, players can achieve three Surfing Jackpots during the bonus game. Filling 1, 2, or 3 rows entirely awards Mini (20x), Major (100x), or Mega (1,000x) jackpot prizes respectively.

Review Summary

All said and done, Aloha King Elvis is a decent sequel to the iconic predecessor, adding a whole new level of entertainment to the gameplay with enhanced free spins and respins. However, it’s not equally compelling in terms of math, especially the return rate, which is a major downside.
