The Goonies Return Review

Few movies define the 80s like the cult classic, The Goonies, and it’s a joy to once again revisit the adventurous world of the young misfits in Blueprint’s second branded installment, simply called The Goonies Return. If you were impressed by the feature heaviness of the first game, this sequel is hardly gonna disappoint in that department either.

You get 6 random modifiers during base game play, as well as 4 that can trigger to turn losing spins into winners. In addition, there is a bonus wheel filled with 6 features, including 3 free spins rounds and 2 bonus games. The cut scenes, animations and action commentary is top notch, and fans of the movie will get to relive plenty of enjoyable moments here.

The Goonies Return Features

The Doubloon Wild steps in for all regular pay symbols to help you form winning combos, and it comes with the same value as the top-tier skull ‘n crossbones symbol. Five of a kind thus awards 25x your stake, while the mid-level character symbols (Mikey, Chunk, Mouth and Data) pay between 10-15x your stake for the same.

The One-Eyed Willy feature can trigger at random times in the base The Goonies Return game, and you then get to choose 1 of 3 keys. This awards 1 of the following modifiers:

• Truffle Shuffle Wilds - adds wild symbols to random positions, and some of them can be upgraded with a multiplier value.
• Hidden Riches - adds a Mikey Wild to the middle reel, and Goony symbols that land can also be turned wild.
• W-invention Reels - up to 5 reels are synced after Data punches the grid with his glove, and these display the same symbol. Data can also generate colossal symbols on up to 5 reels, and upgrade symbols for better wins.
• Lucky Coins - adds mystery symbols that turn into the same matching symbol, and you might also get a cash coins respins feature that plays out until no more cash coins land.

  

  Bonus Boost - adds extra bonus symbols to the reels, that might help trigger the feature. Win Spin - guarantees a big win from the spin that follows.

In addition to these randomly triggered modifiers, you also have some additional modifiers that can trigger on losing spins only:

• The scythe resets the reels to turn a losing spin into a win.
• Shooting spikes removes at least 1 column of symbols, and this generates a win.
• A dynamite is lobbed onto the grid to upgrade a losing spin to a winner.
• A cave collapse removes symbols, causing a cascade of new symbols.

The Goonies Return Slot - Bonus Wheel

The One-Eyed Willy Bonus Wheel is triggered when you land 3 bonus scatters anywhere in view. There are 6 features up for grabs on this wheel, and they are as follows:

The Goonies Return Booby Trap feature comes with a key you need to turn left or right, and this reveals a cash prize, ‘Collect’ (ends the feature) or ‘Bonus Feature’. The latter awards one of the other bonus features.

The Waterslide to Wealth Bonus moves you along a waterslide multiplier trail, and you’ll collect prizes that ascend the further you go. The feature ends if you hit ‘Collect’, and you get the Big Money Bonus Round if you make it all the way to the end.

The Skeleton Organ Bonus Round comes with 5 free spins, and the Skeleton Organ Symbols are super stacked on the reels.

These symbols are also sticky for the duration of the feature, and you’ll pick a key to reveal a symbol that becomes overlaid on all Skeleton Organ Symbols. As the feature ends, you get to pick a gold doubloon to reveal extra spins, a new bonus round entirely or ‘Collect’ to take you back to the base game.

The Fratelli Bonus Round comes with 10 free spins, and Super Sloth Wilds highlight the position they land on. On the final spin, either cash symbols or wilds will appear in the marked positions, and you need 5 cash symbols to trigger the Momma Fratelly Money Spins feature. This is a streak respins style feature with 3 starting spins, and cash symbols become sticky and reset the spin tally when they land. Once again, you get to make a pick (of keys this time), and this might award extra spins, a new bonus feature or ‘Collect’.

The Goonies Return Final Voyage Free Spins feature comes with a full-reel Inferno Wild that starts on reel 1. It moves one reel to the right per free spin, turning Data, Mouth, Chunk and Mike symbols wild on spin 1 to 4. This means that all 4 character symbols are wild on the 5th and final spin, and you get to pick 1 of 5 doubloons to win extra spins, the One-Eyed Willy Riches feature or ‘Collect’.

The One-Eyed Willy Riches Bonus is a hold-and-win style feature, and you start with 3 spins. You can land both cash symbols and character symbols, and both reset the spin tally to 3 again.

The symbols come with the following modifiers:

• Cash symbols - come with a random multiplier value.
• Mikey - gives you an overall win multiplier.
• Data - increases the number of spins by +1, so the tally resets to 4 instead of 3, and so forth.
• Chunk - adds his own value to all symbols in sight.
• Mouth - collects all values present on the screen.
• One-Eyed Willy - adds an extra column to the grid.
• Sloth - revives the power of all other character symbols in view.

You have a regular gamble feature as well in this game, and it means you can collect or gamble your winnings to increase your payout. Whenever you win at least 15x your stake, you can use the win to gamble for a bonus feature.

Review Summary

The nostalgic vibe from the movie is carried over well in The Goonies Return slot, and perhaps even more so than in the original Blueprint release. You get plenty of fun animations, cut scenes and action commentary, and, of course, there is a total overload of features. There is so much action packed into this game that it literally will make your head spin at first, and it will take a good while to try everything and get somewhat of an overview.

The good news is that many of these features come with solid potential returns, and the overall max win is capped at £250,000, as usual from Blueprint.

If you enjoyed the original game, there is no reason you’ll not thoroughly enjoy this sequel as well, and the medium volatility makes it suitable for most player types. If you want to get lost in an adventurous world full of features, you cannot go wrong playing either of the Goonies installments.

Pros

• 6 random base game modifiers
• 4 random losing spin modifiers
• Bonus Wheel w/ 6 features
• Win up to £250,000

Cons

• Not for those who cannot stand the movie
