Henry The Ape Slot Review

Henry the Ape Slot Overview

Henry the Ape from Push Gaming drops you straight into a concrete jungle where the new king of the mic is a crown‑wearing gorilla. The slot runs on a 6x4 reel set with 4,096 ways to win and a focus on a Super High Paying Symbol that nudges down the reels. It is a high volatility release, aimed at players who like hip‑hop flavour and punchy feature sets.

Once I had a few sessions on Henry the Ape, the thing that stood out was how few spins felt totally dead. Between nudging Henry stacks, wild multipliers and random features that rework non‑winners, there is usually something happening on screen. It still behaves like a proper high variance slot, though, so you need a sensible bankroll and the patience for stretches where the jungle beat goes quiet.

Henry the Ape Slot Information

Henry the Ape runs on a 6 reel, 4 row engine giving 4,096 ways to win on every paid spin. Stakes start at 10p and, depending on the operator, can rise to around £100 per spin, so both low stakes grinders and high rollers are covered. The headline RTP is 96.44%, though lower settings exist, and the hit frequency sits at roughly twenty five percent with a 10,000x bet max win.

Henry the Ape Symbols and Paytable

The paytable in Henry the Ape starts with J, Q, K and A, which return 0.8x the bet for six of a kind. Microphone and boombox symbols form the mid tier and pay up to 1.5x, while two ape sidekicks in blue and brown outfits reach 3x for six. Henry himself is the Super High Paying Symbol and pays from two of a kind, up to 6x the stake for six.

Wild symbols appear on reels two to six in Henry the Ape and substitute for all regular symbols, helping to complete wins across the 4,096 ways. When a wild is part of a win, there is a chance it carries a multiplier of x2, x3, x5 or x10, and multiple wild multipliers add together. In free spins, every winning wild reveals a multiplier, which is where huge stacked Henry wins can really snowball.

Henry the Ape Slot Features

On the feature side, Henry the Ape throws a lot into the base game. The nudging Super High Paying Symbol is the headliner, landing on reels two to five in single icons or Fat Stacks that cover whole reels. After a non‑winning spin, Drop the Win can add Henry or wilds to force a hit, while Rewind simply respins the grid and Second Chance can push an extra scatter into view.

Free spins in Henry the Ape trigger from three or more scatters in the base game. Three symbols award eight spins, four give ten plus the second medium symbol upgraded to Henry, five award twelve with both mediums upgraded, and six launch fifteen with all medium and high symbols already turned into Super High Paying Symbols. This setup means your starting level can vary a lot, which changes how explosive the round feels.

During free spins, Henry the Ape adds a Bonus Meter above the reels. When Henry lands or nudges with Gold Disks, they collect in the meter; every four upgrade another symbol to Henry across all reels and award extra spins, starting with +5 then +4, +3 and +2. You also get Bonus Buy options at 179x or 425x bet and the Push Bet toggle, so you can grind or pay straight for the chaos.

Henry the Ape Theme & Graphics

Visually, Henry the Ape leans hard into its hip‑hop city setting, with a fisheye lens view of skyscrapers, graffiti, vines and a yellow cab framing the 6x4 reels. The soundtrack mixes chunky beats, record scratches and the odd police siren, which works well with the nudging stacks and random features firing. On both desktop and mobile the animations stay smooth, so long sessions never feel like a chore on the eyes.

Our Henry the Ape Verdict

After a fair few hours with Henry the Ape, I see it as a proper high variance music slot that rewards patience. The mix of Fat Stacks, Drop the Win, Rewind and Second Chance means the base game has far more going on than a simple spin‑and‑hope grind. The real money, though, sits in the free spins where upgraded symbols, Henry stacks and wild multipliers can converge into serious hits.

I would recommend Henry the Ape most to players who enjoy complex bonus systems and are comfortable with long downswings chasing that 10,000x cap. It is worth checking that your casino runs the 96.44% configuration, as the lower RTP versions feel noticeably harsher. If you just want a quick taste, the Bonus Buy is handy for sampling the free spins without grinding, though the price tag is not for the faint‑hearted.
