Okay mga pre, two more games just went live on our free demo page!
First up is Wild Ape #3258 from PG Soft, which we wanted to add for a while because many people asked about it. The other is Fortune Garuda 500 from JILI. That one might already look familiar if you follow our monthly demo data, where you might have seen that people have been playing it for a few months now.
Wild Ape #3258 from PG Soft
If you like Wild Bounty Showdown or Piñata Wins, you should try this one. It has the same familiar PG Soft feel, but different mechanics.
First of all, there’s a huge bored-looking Ape sitting in the middle, locked in chains. The whole thing looks a kind of ridiculous.
The game has six reels, cascading wins, and up to 32,400 ways to win. But the fun part starts when you unlock the Ape. Two consecutive wins break the chains, after which the Ape starts working as a multiplier wild.
It’s a high-volatility game. The average RTP is 96.73%, and the maximum advertised win is 10,000x.
The high volatility is noticeable. We’ve had some pretty dead stretches while testing it. Still, when you get a good cascade going and finally break those chains, the game suddenly makes sense. Definitely one we’d try in demo mode first rather than learning how it works with your own money.

Fortune Garuda 500 from JILI
Now for something completely different. Fortune Garuda 500 looks almost too simple when you first open it: three reels, five paylines, and no fancy grid filled with exploding symbols.
But then you notice the extra reel on the right. That’s the Special Reel, which gives different multipliers for every spin, and that’s the whole point of the game. Multipliers start at 2x and can go all the way to 500x. The max win for this game is 25 000x (a surprisingly high ceiling for such a simple-looking scatter).
There’s also the Garuda Gift feature, which can change the multipliers on the Special Reel and the Ex Nudge mechanic. The Ex Nudge is a fun one. Instead of taking just one multiplier from the Special Reel, it pulls the reel down and collects several multipliers.
We actually like the contrast here. Wild Ape throws a lot at you from the beginning. Fortune Garuda looks like something you could understand in 20 seconds, and then you start noticing the extras. The RTP of this game is 97.10%.

Both are now live on our free games page. As always, you don’t need to create an account or deposit anything.
We are curious to know how you like Fortune Garuda. It’s already been climbing the charts in our demo play stats before we properly added it to the library. Let’s see if it ends up in September’s most-played list!
