- A new addition to the primate series, with a twist
- Megaways mechanics offer lots of ways to win
- A massive win potential of over 24,000x
Red Tiger returns to its evolving-wild roots in Zillard King Megaways, a follow-up to the original that introduces the chaotic energy of Megaways to the monster-filled formula. Drawing inspiration from its earlier Primate King titles, this installment swaps apes for kaiju and sets the stage on a storm-lashed coastline reminiscent of San Francisco, complete with a trembling Golden Gate Bridge lookalike.
Built on a 6-reel Megaways grid with up to 117,649 ways to win, this highly volatile slot introduces a Zillard Wild evolution system, a locked sixth reel, Thunder Wilds, and a uniquely sticky Free Spins bonus with a max win of 24,393x and a default RTP of 95.72%.
Zillard King Megaways Slot Bonuses and Features
Zillard Wild. A fully stacked wild that lands on reels 2–5, the Zillard Wild substitutes all paying symbols and always lands fully in view. It displays a multiplier (x2–x7) that determines how many symbol positions it counts for when calculating wins.
- If it lands and doesn’t win, it locks in place.
- If it lands and does win, the multiplier increases by +1.
The wild remains persistent until it runs out of Life Points, earned through the evolution system.
Gold Coins & Zillard Evolution. A three-stage progress bar above reel 6 tracks your collection of Gold Coin symbols, which drop randomly in the base game (but not on the locked reel).
- Stage 1 (30 coins): Adds 1 Life Point to the Zillard Wild.
- Stage 2 (60 coins): Adds another Life Point and introduces Thunder Wilds to the reel strips.
- Stage 3 (90 coins): Adds a final Life Point and unlocks the sixth reel, which no longer contains low-paying symbols.
Once unlocked, Gold Coins may appear only on reel 6 and can trigger Free Spins.
Thunder Wilds. Unlocked at Stage 2, Thunder Wilds substitute for all paying symbols and may appear at random on reels 2–5 when the Zillard Wild is in play. They can also be summoned during the Free Spins round.
Free Spins Bonus. Free Spins trigger when a Gold Coin lands on reel 6 (must be unlocked) and a Zillard Wild is present on the grid. This awards 4 Free Spins, with +1 extra spin for each remaining Zillard Wild Life Point (up to 7). The Zillard Wild remains fixed on the reels for the duration of the round. Thunder Wilds may be summoned randomly at the start of each free spin.
Conclusion
Zillard King Megaways slot from Red Tiger Gaming walks a familiar but satisfying path, slowly building toward explosive gameplay through a staged progression system. The locked sixth reel can feel restrictive early on, especially for players who prefer faster-paced, high-action sessions. But for those who enjoy a sense of growth and purpose, the Zillard Wild evolution offers rewarding persistence and late-game power.
The Free Spins feature, where your fully evolved Zillard Wild locks in and Thunder Wilds add extra spark, is clearly the game’s highlight, though reaching it may take patience. While the max win of 24,393x is impressive, it’s still shy of what Primate King Megaways offered. Ultimately, if you’re drawn to monsters, Megaways, and feature progression, Zillard King Megaways is a solid follow-up.
