The Goonies 🎖️
This popular online pokie is based on Spielberg’s blockbuster classic film from the 80s, The Goonies. Despite being an old film, it is still cherished by many movie fans for its unique characters and fantastic storyline. Undoubtedly, it inspired Blueprint to launch The Goonies slot in 2018. The game has 5 reels, 3 rows, 20 paylines, and a decent RTP of 96%.
Considering that The Goonies already have a narrative based on the movie, it is a trendy game among New Zealanders. Beyond that, Kiwi players love it because of its in-play modifiers, which are easily triggered on any spin or bonus rounds. It is basically an adventure where players get to hunt for hidden treasures.
Some of NZ online casinos with this game in the lobby also offer free spins to play the game. If you are lucky, you also get the chance to spin without any deposit. Overall, the gameplay is simple, with a fantastic soundtrack to spice your every spin.

Game Details
What makes The Goonies Slot unique, especially for New Zealanders? Is it just because of its affiliation with the movie, or are there exciting things about the gameplay, theme, sounds, and betting features that make it a top pick? Let’s find out in the following sections.
Theme, Graphics & Sound Effect
Only a few players may have seen this 1980s classic directed by Richard Donner. The Goonies tells the tales of a group of kids whose quest for survival led them into a cave filled with treasures. However, they must find a way to get past the booby traps in the tunnel and the Fratelli crime family planning to loot the treasures.
I had to mention this storyline because it forms the basis of the entire game’s theme, sound, and graphics. The game symbols were also adapted from the film, like treasure chest, pirate flag, and pirate ship. What’s more appealing is the sound and animations in this game.
Indeed, The Goonies is a fun slot. Blueprint Gaming integrates some sound excerpts from the movie into the gaming to create a nostalgic feeling. You hear sounds like “Goonies never say die” and many more relatable phrases.
![The Goonies Slot](https://kiwislots.nz/wp-content/uploads/The-Goonies.png)
Unique Features
The Goonies is all about an adventurous quest for hidden treasures. Every spin allows you to find the keys to One-Eyed Willy’s Riches, Mikey’s Hidden Treasure, Mouth’s Lucky Coins, and Pata’s Colossal Symbols. All of these give you the chance for a maximum win of 50,000x the bet.
The slot has a Wild symbol that substitutes other paying symbols. Matching 5 Wilds pays 25x for the bet. Meanwhile, 3 or more Scatter symbols trigger the One-Eyed Willy’s Bonus, which unlocks a series of events.
This effect allows you to spin a reel with 6 bonus options: One-Eyed Willy, Chunk’s Shuffle, Mikey’s Hidden Treasure, and Slot Win Spin. Mouth’s Lucky Coins and Data Colossal Symbols. Afterwards, you can either accept the outcomes or gamble it for an improvement. The colour of the Skeleton icon affects the outcome. For instance, if it is red, it allows you to click on any three symbols for the chance to unlock a unique feature.
Other engaging bonus features include the Inferno Free Spins, Skeleton Organ Bonus, and Super Sloth Free Spins.
Betting Options & Payouts
The Goonies is a medium volatility slot with a max win of 50,000x the bet. Players can bet between $0.10 and $20 per spin. However, there are options for a bonus buy and free spins in the game.
The payout is between 2.5x and 5x for the lower-paying symbols. Then, it is 10x to 25x for higher symbols, which is far from the 50,000x max win. However, the key to landing huge wins lies in matching Scatter, Wild, One-Eyed Willy’s Riches, and other special symbols.
User Experience
Beyond the game symbols, which I find appealing, what’s even more interesting is the game’s animation and sounds. For every spin, it is pretty entertaining. It gets even better with the sound excerpts from the original movie. The game is simple and enjoyable to play.
Comparison
Some say that The Goonies is a clone of the Blueprint’s TED slot, but I do not think that’s true. The symbols are different because you get a lot of TED and photos of Mark Wahlberg, which is different from what you get in The Goonies. Besides the display and sound, which I find more appealing in The Goonies, it has a slightly higher RTP and max win of 50,000x, unlike 10,000x for the TED slot.
