3 Lucky Monkeys — slot review and demo

Three monkeys and their piggy banks: how the slot works

BGaming released the slot on 28 September 2026 with a 5×3 grid and 20 paylines. The main feature is three monkeys above the reels, each collecting its own type of special coin: Expand (expands the grid to 5×5), Collect (adds up all coin values on screen) and Boost (adds value to all coins except jackpot ones). When a coin lands in the base game, it flies into its monkey's piggy bank, and these powers activate in the Hold & Win bonus round. Wild symbols substitute for all except coins and pay on their own.

Hold & Win bonus round with five jackpots

6 or more coins trigger the Hold & Win round directly, 2–5 coins give a chance to enter it randomly. The round starts with three spins, and the counter resets to three with each new coin. Empty cells can fill with coins carrying values, and the round ends when spins run out or the grid is completely filled. Expand turns the grid into 5×5 and itself becomes a ×3–×10 coin, Collect gathers all values without removing coins, Boost increases each coin. Mini, Minor and Major jackpots land with jackpot coins, Grand when the base 5×3 grid is filled, Royal when the expanded 5×5 is filled. There are three bonus buy options: Chance raises the bet and the probability of natural entry, Random Bonus triggers Hold & Win with one to three active monkey powers, Ultra Bonus activates all three powers at once.

96.98% RTP and medium volatility

The slot runs at 96.98% RTP and medium volatility, giving a balanced ratio of frequency and payout size. Maximum win is ×5000 the bet, or up to 250,000 euros at high limits. Hit rate is 5.50, meaning roughly every 18th spin brings a payout. All parameters can be checked in the game rules before playing for money.
