Gonzo’s Quest Slot Background
Gonzo’s Quest is the first in a trilogy of slots based around the theme of redoubtable conquistadors traveling to South America in search of fame, fortune, and lost treasures. The other two are Gonzo’s Quest Megaways and the recently released Gonzita’s Quest. However, the original was the one to pioneer the Avalanche feature, whereby symbols in a winning combination are replaced with other symbols dropping from above. Add a brilliant audio-visual presentation and a couple of exciting bonus features and you have an iconic slot in every sense of the word.
Gonzo’s Quest Slot Game Design
Gonzo’s Quest features a 5-reel, 3-row game grid with 20 paylines and a maximum potential payout of 1,875x the stake. The slot is also packed with a wide assortment of features and bonuses - including the unique Avalanche Function and Free Fall mechanics - guaranteed to have you trapezing across the jungle like a conquistador and help transform the slot into one that’s packed full of thrills and excitement.
The slot’s conquistador-themed presentation is at the high standard you’d expect from a NetEnt title. Cultivating the look and feel of an Inca temple as it might have looked back in the day, the acclaimed developer has created something special with this game. The graphics are spectacular, and a lot of attention has been paid to how the game looks: the Inca temple, and the square stone blocks with the carved heads that make up the symbols. Speaking of which, even the way the symbols fall is unique - rather than the usual spinning reel movement, the stone blocks just fall on top of each other, then crumble and disappear. Even Gonzo himself makes an appearance, standing on the left side of the screen, with a very interested look at what’s going on in the reels. The ambient sounds - birds chirping, distant animal sounds - along with the various musical beats - complete what’s an impressive title that will almost make you believe you’re deep in the South American jungle.

Gonzo’s Quest Slot Symbols
The game has 9 symbols; all are elaborately detailed and naturally take on an Incan theme; each symbol represents a carved stone head, each representing a deity. The highest paying of these - the silver stone carving with the gilded eyes - provides the maximum payout for landing 5 on the reels. You’ll also notice that there are no playing card symbols present in this slot, so you can tell that the developer was going for total immersion into the world of the Incas here. Finally, all symbols can be caught in the Avalanche Function, which is a nice bonus.
The slot’s Wild symbol is represented by a stone square with a gilded question mark; it can substitute all other ones on the reels. The slot’s Scatter symbol - here called the Free Falls symbol - is represented by a golden square with an intricate mask carving. It’s the key to unlocking the Free Spin feature (called Free Falls in-game).
Gonzo’s Quest Slot Bonus Features
Gonzo’s Quest has a couple of bonuses and features guaranteed to up the thrills and excitement!
Avalanche Function
This function is available from the outset as soon as you land a winning combination on the reels. The winning symbols crumble and are replaced with other symbols dropping from above. If those symbols form winning combinations, then the avalanche continues for as long as there are winning symbols forming winning combinations. But that’s only half of it. Avalanches are tied to win multipliers (called avalanche multipliers in-game); these increase as the avalanches continue:
- Initial Avalanche = 1x multiplier
- Second Avalanche = 2x multiplier
- Third Avalanche = 3x multiplier
- Fourth Avalanche and beyond = 5x multiplier
Free Falls
Free Falls is this slot’s version of the Free Spins bonus round. The feature is triggered by landing 3 Free Fall symbols on a bet line, starting from the leftmost reel, which in turn awards 10 Free Falls. Additional Free Spins can be awarded during the bonus round, while the Wild Symbol is also active. Finally, the Avalanche Function remains in play during Free Falls, although the values of the multipliers are increased:
- Initial Avalanche = 3x multiplier
- Second Avalanche = 6x multiplier
- Third Avalanche = 9x multiplier
- Fourth Avalanche and beyond = 15x multiplier
The combination of the Avalanche and Free Falls mechanics - and the increased win multipliers these bring - is the key to potentially earning the biggest wins.
