About Kong Casino

When visiting Kong Casino for the first time we weren’t too sure what to expect. The landing page takes its inspiration from the dozen or so movies which feature the “eighth wonder of the world,” King Kong. So you are greeted with a dark moody setting along with a big ape peering over a wall. We were a little surprised that the colourful character from the King Kong Cash slot titles wasn’t there to greet us instead, but the darker gloomy feel makes a pleasant change to the colourful norm. So will this platform have you beating your chest in delight or are there a few banana skins. Can you play in Kong-fidence, with no Kong-fusion and Kong-troversy? (sorry we couldn’t help ourselves) Let’s explore further and find out.

Kong Casino was launched in 2019 by Jumpman Gaming and is one of a number of casino sites operated by them which include Dove Casino and Barbados Bingo to name a couple. Jumpman is well respected within the industry, with their platforms focusing on slots and bingo from countless game providers. Their sites are secure and reliable on any device, especially mobile.

Kong Casino’s homepage is set on a night sky with a bright full moon towards the left and a few orange headers including the logo to break it up on desk top. The mobile site is a basic black and orange which also works well. Clicking or tapping on the home icon leads you directly to the lobby area where you can find pretty everything this platform has to offer.

There’s an icon which looks like a chess piece linking you to your account area, a crammed offers section, the trophy area which is progress gained from Jumpman’s loyalty reward scheme and general customer support. The layout which is commonly mirrored on all Jumpman platforms is straightforward with a simple, easy to navigate, relaxed feel to the site. With more game providers added quite recently 1000+ slot games are at hand, alongside bingo rooms delivered by Pragmatic Play. So let’s head further into the Kong Casino jungle, roar!

Getting Started

The sign up process is certainly easier than scaling up the Empire State Building with no hidden obstacles in your way. The registration process at Kong Casino is very simple, taking a couple of minutes at most. You will receive a welcome text and email. Furthermore, you get to choose how the casino contacts you within the sign up process, with protection tools in place to set deposit limits and reality checks. You can also find these tools within your account area or at the responsible gambling section towards the bottom of any page on their platform. Kong Casino will try to verify your account when you sign up, however you could be asked to provide ID and proof of address before you play or in the future. This is completely normal and nothing to worry about.

There is an excellent welcome package for all new customers which you can receive by clicking or tapping on the link above. This is a 100% matched bonus up to £200 and 50 free spins on your first deposit which you can receive for just a £10 deposit. It does come with wagering requirements so make sure you read the T&Cs before you play.

Bingo at Kong Casino

From jungle roars to bingo calls, you will find less sky scrapers and more houses with bingo here delivered by Pragmatic Play. All games are also available via mobile too which is an excellent feature which benefits you the player. There are 9 rooms available of which 5 of them are consistently active. Games on offer include a 30 ball version via the Zoom Room, 75 ball if you head to the Country Road Room, BoomBox is a 80 ball game and The Jackpot Room is one of the 90-ball games available. Other games include Animingo and Bingo Blast, with the Heavy Weight and Super Heavy Weight rooms open for daily and weekly jackpot games respectively. There is also a video bingo variant (not by Pragmatic Play) in the bingo lobby area called Bingo 90 if you like quick first person games.

Most rooms have a jackpot on offer with the Bingo Blast Room’s standing at over £11,000 at the time of writing.

When entering a bingo room and clicking the home icon you have the option of playing up to 4 different games at the same time by clicking or tapping on the + icon within any bingo room. Stakes on games vary but suit all budgets with 1p to 25p games available. Pre-ticket sales for games are available but unfortunately there are no chat rooms, which does take out the social element of the game. However, a quiet game of Bingo in a fun environment isn’t sometimes a bad thing.

Slots and Games at Kong Casino

By clicking or tapping one of the four slots categories you could maybe Kong-quer the reels and Kong-gratulations could be the order of the day. (I can hear your groans) Navigating your way around here is pretty self explanatory with an assortment of titles on offer. Being that this is, well, Kong Casino the first thing we did was type “ King Kong” in the search function. We were not disappointed with the old classic King Kong Cash, very much available to play alongside newer versions of the Even Bigger Bananas series. Other games included Krazy Kong and Kongs Temple.

Under the popular or slot categories titles are divided into themes which include the Cosmic Adventures section which is home to Starburst, Reactoonz, Moon Princess and Cash Volt. In fact there are 245+ games there alone. Within the Going for Gold section are 200 titles with Gold Blitz, 9 Pots of Gold and Eye of Horus The Gold Tablet at home there. Other themed areas include Tales of Egypt with 160+ games and a Mystical and Magical section with 150+ titles. New titles are updated on a regular basis and also have their own dedicated area.

In general the platform has a relaxed vibe to it, with good sized square game tiles and an uncluttered feel. Finding games here in general is very easy even though the search function is pretty basic. This could be further improved if you were able to search by provider. However, once you have found games they are stored in your search history so you can simply go back to them if you wish.

Lastly when it comes to the slots there is a good but limited choice of Progressive Jackpot slots which are delivered by Eyecon. You can find these under the Jackpots category within the lobby. With 60+ titles to choose from, games include Crystal Lotus Jackpot, Dynamite Digger Eureka Jackpot and numerous Fluffy Favourites Jackpot titles.

Kong Casino at the time of writing offers no live casino or table game products (apart from a single video roulette table we found using the search box) but has chosen to focus on offering a great slot and bingo product. Be that as it may, there are a few other games that could take your fancy such as the huge choice of 60+ Slingo games.  You can also find 12+ LuckyTap titles, Keno, a couple of crash games and some Instant Wins scratchcards via the search function.

Other Things to Consider

Alongside the Kong Casino’s welcome package mentioned earlier are a few ongoing promotions. These include a free to play daily spins wheel, Turbo Tuesday, Fluffy Friday, prize draws, tournaments and weekly free spins promotions you claim by entering deposit codes to name a few. Alongside there is a loyalty scheme which rewards your play when you complete certain tasks.

Depositing and withdrawing funds is pretty straightforward with many banking options available; these include Paypal which you can use for a super quick registration if you wish. You have to pay a flat fee of £2.50 to withdraw though.

Lastly, there are a few customer support options available if you need any help and advice. If you have any general enquiries there is a very helpful FAQ area. You can also make contact with Kong Casino by means of live chat or via email, but only between 9am and 4pm, Monday to Friday which is disappointing.

Final Thoughts

Kong Casino focuses on providing its customers with a great slots and bingo experience and it does this very well. However, we have come to the Kong-clusion that if you enjoy live casino or table games this might not be the site for you. It consistently delivers good, smooth game play on both mobile and desktop alongside a massive games library in a laidback environment. This platform certainly isn’t the king of the jungle but has a very decent welcome offer and is well worth giving a chance to, especially if you haven’t ever tried a Jumpman Gaming site before.
