King Kong: Myth of Terror Island takes the classic giant ape and builds a modern adventure around him. The game sends you across Skull Island, with Kong, dinosaurs and the island’s various dangers providing the major objectives.
The central Kong mechanism is the obvious attraction, but the game is really about progressing through the island and completing its various adventures. The layout combines traditional shots with larger mechanical features to give the game a strong sense of scale.
It is a machine that rewards exploration rather than simply repeating one profitable shot. Get onto the island first. Once you understand the journey, Kong becomes much easier to deal with.
