The Goonies’ story has captivated audiences for decades, making it an ideal choice for a slot machine.
Theme and thegooniesslot.com Design
As one would expect from a film-based slot, The Goonies features a cinematic design inspired by the 1985 movie. Upon loading the game, players are transported to Astoria, Oregon, where they encounter many of their favorite characters. The background is set against the picturesque town’s map, complete with images of iconic locations like One-Eyed Willy’s shipwreck and the infamous Fratellis’ hideout.
Symbols in this slot take inspiration from both the movie’s original story line and its key settings: the Fratelli brothers’ symbols (Jake & Francis), Chunk and Mikey, Rosalita, Sloth (who has a separate wild symbol), One-Eyed Willy himself along with two separate treasure chest symbols to represent high-value wins. The standard number 9-to-Ace card value icons are also included but depicted in a simple yet vibrant manner matching the colorful tone of the slot.
The design is detailed and vibrant, making it visually appealing even for non-players familiar with the movie.
Symbols and Payouts
While many symbols will trigger a bonus game or become active within those events themselves; let’s see what these icons offer when activated by landing three in one row left to right on their respective reels.
- Jake & Francis (Fratelli Brothers) : Pay 40 for a two-symbol combination, 200 with a minimum of 3 and 1000 maxed out.
- Chunk and Mikey : Provide up to 20 when not connected by the three symbol rule or 400 with said condition met.
- Rosalita (Clever Midget) : Offers no less than ten but not more than twenty, and for combinations of two plus twenty respectively.
