The Goonies: Hey You Guys! Slot Review

The Goonies: Hey You Guys! Slot Overview

Hey You Guys!!! The legendary phrase bellowed by the heroic Sloth in the 1985 classic continues to echo through the decades. That triumphant call has been heard in the slot-o-sphere and now features in the title of the 2023 instalment in The Goonies series from Blueprint Gaming. Sloth steals the show as the key to the game’s Cash Collect feature - which comes with a few tricks under its pirate hat. If you sign up for this adventure on the reels, you will also find Random Modifiers, four Jackpots, and an upgrading Free Spins Bonus. Uncover One-Eyed Willy’s secret stash, and you may return to the Goon Docks clutching a 50,000x max win!

It’s hard not to love The Goonies, and we suspect the team at Blueprint Gaming are big fans. As with the previous installments in the series, the audio and visuals will earn a thumbs up from slots fans in general and delight Goonies aficionados. Turning to the gameplay, The Goonies: Hey You Guys! isn’t quite so rich in bonus features as The Goonies or The Goonies Returns, but it’s nice to see Sloth given a little more time in the spotlight through the Cash Collect feature, which benefits from the addition of the Unlockable Symbols. Throw in the randomly activated Modifiers, and you have a base game that never becomes dull, whilst the Free Spins Bonus offers all the escalating thrills you would expect of a Bonus Trail feature. It’s a shame the RTP couldn’t have been edged up just a little higher, but other than that, this is a more than worthy addition to an excellent series.

Doubloon Wilds

This classic movie icon may appear on any reel and substitutes for all standard symbols to help create winning combos.

Mini: 10x
Minor: 25x
Major: 100x
Mega: 2,000x

Sloth Symbols appear only on reel five and will collect all Cash and Jackpot Prizes in view. The fun doesn’t stop there, as there are four types of Sloth Symbols, which you can unlock as you progress through the game.

Collect Sloth: Automatically in play when you launch the game. When activated, this collects all prizes in view and unlocks Re-Spin Sloth.
Re-spin Sloth: When activated, collects all prizes in view, locks in place and re-spins reels one to four, then unlocks Boost Sloth.
Boost Sloth: When activated, collects all prizes in view, adds a Cash Boost to the total, then unlocks Super Collect Sloth.
Super Collect Sloth: This collection crazy sloth will repeatedly gather all prizes in view up to ten times!

Once unlocked, all Sloth types remain active in the base game and Free Spins Bonus.

Modifiers

Sloth swooping into action was one of the movie's most memorable moments and is a welcome sight in the game. Listen out for the call of, “Hey You Guys!” as it may signal the appearance of one of the following Modifiers.

Hidden Treasure: Randomly adds Coin Cash Symbols to the reels,
Bonus Boost: Adds 3x1 One-Eyed Willy Scatter Symbols to reels two, three, and four – increasing your chances of reaching the Free Spins Bonus.

Free Spins Bonus

One-Eyed Willy Scatters may appear on reels two, three, and four. Land three on a single spin, and you will move into the pirate’s treasure hold armed with 10 free spins.

Free spins take place on the same 5x3 layout, with all unlocked Sloth Collect Symbols remaining in play. However, the appearance of a Sloth Symbol is even more rewarding in the feature, thanks to the Bonus Trail above the reels. Every Sloth that lands will see you progress one step along the trail, with boosts awarded for every third Sloth:

Three Sloths: Five additional free spins and 2x multiplier applied to Cash Collect Wins
Six Sloths: Five additional free spins and 3x multiplier applied to Cash Collect Wins
Nine Sloths: Five additional free spins and 5x multiplier applied to Cash Collect Wins
12 Sloths: Five additional free spins and 10x multiplier applied to Cash Collect Wins

Our Verdict: Cash collection free spins that come complete with a Trail feature rarely disappoint, and Blueprint Gaming has done a great job of ramping up the excitement and big win potential as the round progresses.

The Goonies: Hey You Guys! Slot RTP & Volatility

RTP	Variable RTP	Volatility
95.00%	Yes	Med-High

The top-end return to player (RTP) percentage of 95.00% is a percentage point below the industry average RTP of 96%.

The Goonies: Hey You Guys! sits towards the high end of the medium volatility category, meaning you should expect a few bumps along the road, but a higher chance of landing a big win in a short session than in a low volatility release.

Our Verdict: The top-end RTP of 95% is disappointing but can be partially forgiven, considering the excellent max win and range of features. It certainly wasn’t plain sailing for The Goonies during the movie with the Fratelli family on their tail, and the medium-high rating strikes the right balance between excitement and peril.

The Goonies: Hey You Guys! Slot Graphics & Audio

Graphics

Blueprint Gaming has once again delivered in spectacular style with the quality of the visuals. Upon loading up the game, you will immediately find yourself transported into The Goonies World. The unmistakable font, treasure map backdrop, beautifully illustrated characters and Special Symbols all hit the right note, and you can’t help but smile when Sloth swings into view.

The Goonies Hey You Guys (Blueprint Gaming) 1 — Wins in the base game

The Goonies Hey You Guys (Blueprint Gaming) 2 — Collect Sloth in action

The Goonies Hey You Guys (Blueprint Gaming) 3 — Data symbols form a win

Audio

It wouldn’t be a Goonies slot without a version of the original theme tune. Whilst not quite as epic as the big screen version, the off-kilter plodding strings and brass instrumentation are unmistakable and will soon suck you further into the theme.

Our Verdict: There are many branded slots out there, but few have been crafted with as much care and detail as this. Perfectly bringing the essence of the movie to the reels, it’s enough to make you want to watch the antics of Chunk, Sloth, and Co all over again.

The Goonies: Hey You Guys! Slot on Mobile

You may have struggled to get your Goony on with a 1980s mobile phone, but modern slot fans will have no such trouble. The Goonies: Hey You Guys! is fully compatible with Android, iOS, and Windows-powered small-screen devices.
