Monkey Day
The Kong Fu slot machine embodies the unique characteristics of the 260 species of monkeys that can be found on almost all of the world’s continents. From the pygmy marmoset that weighs a few ounces to the 80-pound mandrill, these creatures captivate us with their agility, antics, and human-like habits and behaviors. You can find these intelligent mammals everywhere – tropical forests, rainforests, savannahs, and even in some densely populated cities.
The idea of celebrating Monkeys came to a few Michigan State University students about 20 years ago. It started out as a joke – a note on a calendar, some costumes, some art illustrations and some imagination. The idea spread quickly as first other students and then the general population started to get on board.
Celebrations were held in far-flung areas of the world, from the United States and Canada to Pakistan, Turkey and Estonia. Hallmark came out with Monkey Day cards that said that Monkey Day is “a day when monkey business is actually encouraged.”
Animal rights groups and environmental activists use Monkey Day to promote their message of conservation. Artists and art institutions showcase art that shows monkeys’ boundless spirit, and community. At zoos around the world, Monkey Day events are held with educational events, art competitions, poetry readings and updates on efforts to preserve monkey habitats around the world. Researchers discuss their findings about monkey intelligence. Some enthusiasts pay to be allowed to enter monkey enclosures and spend time amongst the simians.

The King Kong storyline involves Kong being brought to New York where he is eventually killed during a rampage through Manhattan. In the Kong Fu six-reel 4 row online slot, Kong’s fighting skills are given an Asian twist as he stands with his rat, tiger, raccoon and tortoise friends to battle the forces that are trying to destroy him.
The Kung Fu slot offers a larger game grid than normal so that the oversized Kung Fu ape can battle his enemies. The gameboard increases to 6x5 or sometimes 6x6 which, in combination with the 4,096 Ways to Win feature, gives you up to 15,625 possible winning combinations on every spin.
