The Goonies slot takes Blueprint Gaming’s feature-heavy style and drops it into the underground tunnels, pirate caves and treasure chambers of the classic 1985 film.
The reels sit on a wooden table surrounded by an old treasure map, scattered coins and clues from the Goonies’ search for One-Eyed Willy’s fortune. Voice clips, music and short animations pull the film into the gameplay without getting in the way of the reels.
Blueprint Gaming released The Goonies in October 2018. The slot uses five reels, three rows and 20 fixed paylines. A matching combination normally needs to begin on the first reel and continue across adjacent reels along one of those lines.
The basic reel layout feels familiar, but the game itself stays busy. Random modifiers can change a spin before or after the reels stop, while three or more Bonus symbols open a wheel containing six separate features. Blueprint lists the game as available on mobile, tablet and desktop devices.
The Goonies will suit players who enjoy slots with plenty to discover. Someone looking for a simpler game with one straightforward free spins round may find the number of modifiers and bonuses harder to follow.
Log into Heart Bingo and open The Goonies from the game page. You can also find it by searching for the title in the main online slots section.
Once the game loads:
Your selected stake covers all 20 paylines. You do not need to switch individual lines on or off.
The stake options shown inside the game can depend on your age, account and the limits that apply to online slots in Great Britain. Decide on a spending limit before playing and stop when you reach it.
The regular symbols follow the pirate-treasure setting rather than placing the film’s main characters directly on every reel.
Jack, Queen, King and Ace symbols form the lower-value group. The higher-value designs include scales, a skull, One-Eyed Willy’s ship, a treasure chest and a pirate flag.
Two special symbols have a larger role in the gameplay.
A gold doubloon acts as the Wild. It can replace regular symbols when that substitution creates or improves a matching payline combination.
The Wild cannot replace the One-Eyed Willy Bonus symbol.
The Bonus symbol shows One-Eyed Willy. Landing three or more Bonus symbols during the same spin opens One-Eyed Willy’s Bonus Wheel.
The wheel then selects one of six bonus rounds. Some versions of the feature also allow players to risk the original result for a different bonus. Check the instructions on screen before making that choice.
One-Eyed Willy’s Riches can activate without a separate scatter combination. When it appears, the game chooses a character-based modifier that changes the upcoming spin.
Sloth changes the symbols to create a winning combination.
Gold Coin symbols appear across the reels. At the end of the spin, each coin reveals the same randomly selected symbol.
Three neighbouring reels combine to display one large 3x3 symbol. Every space covered by the colossal symbol counts as the same icon.
Chunk adds Wild symbols to several reel positions before the game evaluates the result.
Extra One-Eyed Willy Bonus symbols land on the grid, which can help trigger the Bonus Wheel.
Mikey can turn one or more complete reels Wild.
The game also contains two rescue-style effects that can appear after a non-winning spin. The Scythe rearranges symbols, while the Cave Collapse clears part of the grid and drops new symbols into the empty positions.
These random effects give the base game more variety, although they do not guarantee a profit or change the random nature of each spin.
Three or more One-Eyed Willy Bonus symbols activate the Bonus Wheel.
The wheel awards one of six features:
Choose between three keys to reveal the next outcome.
A key may add a cash value, end the feature with Collect or uncover a Hidden Tunnel. The Hidden Tunnel leads to another bonus from the wheel.
Pick keys on the skeleton organ to reveal character values, multiplier upgrades or access to another bonus.
Some selections remove one of your lives. The round ends after all three lives have gone.
Super Sloth Free Spins move the action to a different set of reels featuring members of the Fratelli family.
When a Super Sloth Wild lands, it upgrades the Fratelli symbols into the highest-paying symbol. A choice of treasure chests appears at the end of the spins and may award extra spins, a different feature or the collected result.
A premium symbol turns Wild during the round, creating additional opportunities to connect combinations across the paylines.
As with the Super Sloth feature, the final chest choice can end the round, add more spins or move the game into another bonus.
A wall of fire travels across the grid and turns between one and three reels completely Wild on each spin.
The position of the Wild reels changes as the Inferno moves from one side of the grid to the other.
This is the final treasure feature.
The game reveals and collects stake multipliers one after another. The process continues until the booby trap appears, at which point the collected values are added together and the feature ends.
Blueprint Gaming confirms that The Goonies contains six main bonus rounds, including Fratelli’s Hideout, Super Sloth Free Spins, The Goonies Go Wild and One-Eyed Willy’s Treasure.
The Goonies works across supported smartphones and tablets, as well as desktop computers. Blueprint Gaming officially lists mobile, tablet, desktop and online compatibility.
Open Heart Bingo through a compatible mobile browser, log into your account and search for the game. The smaller layout keeps the same paylines, symbols and bonus rounds found in the desktop version.
A stable internet connection will help the animations and film clips run without interruption.
Blueprint Gaming has expanded the film licence into several different slot formats.
The original remains the best starting point for players who want the six-feature Bonus Wheel and the character modifiers that made Blueprint’s first Goonies game distinctive.
The Goonies mixes a traditional five-reel layout with far more features than its simple grid initially suggests.
The strongest part of the game is not one individual free spins round. It is the way the base-game modifiers, Bonus Wheel and six different features connect with one another. One bonus can lead into another, while random character appearances keep the main game from relying solely on the scatter trigger.
Open The Goonies at Heart Bingo, check the current game rules and choose a stake that fits the limit you have set for the session.
Gambling outcomes are random. Never treat a bonus trigger, previous result or losing sequence as a sign that a win is due.
