Slot Basics: Reels, Paylines and Format

Symbols, Bonus Icons and Feature Mechanics

You’ll see classic letter symbols adorning the reels, along with characters from the film including Data, Mouth, Chunk and Miley.

Also look out for the: 

  • Wild Symbol: Substitutes for all other symbols, apart from the Scatter, to help you land winning lines.
  • Bonus Symbol: Land 3 or more to trigger the bonus games.
  • Coin Symbol (bonus features only): This mystery symbol can transform into any paytable symbol.

Bonus Features

This is one of the most feature-rich slots you’ll find at Mecca Games.

One-Eyed Willy Key of Plenty

This can trigger randomly on any spin, with 1 of 6 random bonus modifiers in play. They include:

  • Truffle Shuffle Wilds: Here, Wilds can overlay the reels which will turn existing paytable symbols into Wilds. Chunk can also appear to add win multipliers to Wilds. He can also do a Truffle reshuffle respin, with the results of the winning line switched around to try and create a bigger win.
  • Hidden Treasure: A Mikey Wild is added to the middle of the centre reel, which then changes any Goonie character symbols Wild to help create extra wins.
  • W-invention Reels: Data appears with his famous spring-loaded punch glove and strikes the reel. This causes 2 or more reels to duplicate their results – up to 5 reels. Data can also create a colossal symbol on up to 5 reels, upgrade the symbols in view or move them to create a better win.
  • Lucky Coins: Mystery Coins select a paytable symbol at random, with all visible Coins turning into that symbol. Coin symbols can also turn into a Cash symbol, which holds onto the reels and triggers a respin. The reels continue to respin until no additional cash symbols land in view.
  • Bonus Boost: Additional Bonus symbols can be added to the reels, for a bigger chance of triggering the Bonus mode.
  • Win Spin: Guaranteed to award a big winning spin.

After any spin, there are additional modifiers that can turn a loss into a win or a win into another win.

After a losing spin:

  • A scythe can appear which will reset the reels into a win.
  • Shooting Spikes can remove one or more columns of symbols to create a win.

After a winning spin, dynamite can be thrown onto the reels to upgrade the win as well as a cave collapse, removing all symbols in view and cascading in a new winning set of symbols.

Bonus Mode

Land 3 or more Bonus symbols anywhere in view and you’ll trigger the Bonus Mode. You get to spin a wheel, which will stop on one of 6 features. You then get to play the feature. They each feature original voiceovers from the characters, and include:

Booby Trap Bonus

Simply turn the key left or right (alternatively, click the left or right arrow) to turn the key and reveal an outcome: CASH, COLLECT, BONUS FEATURE. You either win some cash, collect the amount displayed in the Bonus Win Display, or get to play a different bonus feature.

Waterslide to Wealth Bonus

You work your way down a multiplier trail, selecting gold doubloons as you go. Each time you collect a doubloon, it adds a multiplier and means you either end the bonus, collect, or move straight to the Big Money Bonus.

Skeleton Organ Free Spins

You’ll get 5 Free Spins with the special Skeleton Organ symbol active and super stacked on each reel. The Skeleton Organ symbol is sticky – any that land in view stay in place for the rest of your Free Spins. If a special symbol lands in view, you pick a key on the Organ that reveals a symbol on every Organ symbol in view. At the end of Free Spins, you pick one of the gold doubloons in view to reveal one of three outcomes: Extra Spins, Bonus or Collect.

Fratelli Free Spins

You get 8 Free Spins. At the end of the Free Spins, you get a final respin on all positions where a Super Sloth Wild landed. Each Super Sloth Wild respins to reveal either a Wild or a Cash symbol. If you get 5 or more Cash symbols, you trigger Momma Fratelli Money Spins. Each reel position turns into a mini cash reel where you have 3 respins to achieve more cash symbols. Each time a cash symbol lands in view, the spins reset to 3. This continues until you’ve used all your spins.

Once all Free Spins are up, you pick a key to reveal one of the following three outcomes: Extra Spins, Bonus or Collect.

Final Voyage Free Spins

This is played on a new Free Spins layout with a trail below the reels, with an Inferno Wild at one end on the left and a Gold Doubloon at the end of the trail on the right. Each time you spin, the Inferno Wild moves one position to the right and holds in place. At the end of each spin, the Goonie below the Inferno Wild will turn Wild. This continues until all of the high pays are upgraded to be Wilds and you reach the Doubloon on reel 5.

You then get to pick from a range of doubloons, revealing one of the following outcomes: Collect, One-Eyed Willy Riches or Super Spins.

One-Eyed Willy Riches Bonus

In this feature, values spin and then come to a stop, awarding the corresponding total bet multiplier. This continues until the booby trap is triggered on the scales, awarding your total bet multiplier win.

You then get 3 Money Spins on a 5x4 grid of individual reels. Each time you get a cash value, it resets your spins back to 3. You’ll see the Goonies characters too, each with a unique power/ability as well as a cash value.

The feature continues until the whole 9x4 grid is full or all spins are used, and you collect your wins.

RTP & Volatility

The Goonies Return has an RTP of 95.5%. This means that in theory, it will return £95.50 for every £100 played. This is measured over a prolonged period of play – usually hundreds of thousands of spins – and isn’t a guarantee of winning each time you play.

It’s a medium-high volatility slot, meaning you may have to wait a little while to land wins, but the potential returns are higher than a lower volatility slot game.

Strategy Tips for Playing The Goonies Return

When you play this fun online slot, it can help to:

  • Know how the slot plays: This is an extremely feature-rich slot game, so it’s important to understand exactly how it plays. Read up on how to win in the base game, how to trigger the bonus features, what each modifier means, and how each bonus feature pays out. Then give it a spin.
  • Hold out for the bonus features: Land 3 Bonus Symbols and you get to spin the wheel to trigger a bonus feature. Within each bonus feature there’s the chance for multipliers, cash wins and to trigger another feature.
  • Be patient: This medium-high volatility slot won’t necessarily pay out straightaway. Hold tight, as when it does pay out it can offer fairly significant returns.
  • Gamble responsibly: Always set a bankroll and stick to it. Don’t bet more to chase your losses. Set a win limit, and know when to take a break from betting.
