Gorilla Blast – Hold & Hit 3x3 Review
Gorilla Blast – Hold & Hit 3x3 packs a full collect-and-respin bonus into a nine-position grid. Bonus symbols land only on the outer reels and the Bonus Collect symbol only in the middle, so a single spin can show at a glance whether the bonus is close.
A small grid with fixed roles
The 3×3 jungle grid has five lines and a glowing tiki-mask wild that substitutes for regular symbols but not for the bonus pieces. Bonus symbols appear only on reels one and three; Bonus Collect appears only on reel two.
Even outside the bonus, a Collect landing beside Bonus symbols pays their values straight away.
Gorilla Blast – Hold & Hit 3x3 Features
How Hold & Hit works
A Bonus Collect together with one or more Bonus symbols starts the round. The triggering symbols lock in place and you get three spins in which only Bonus and Collect symbols can land.
Bonus symbols carry multipliers of 1×, 2×, 5×, 7×, 10× or 15×, or one of the Mini, Minor, Major and Grand jackpots. Each Collect adds up every Bonus value on the grid, and any new symbol resets the counter to three. The round ends after three empty spins or when winnings reach 5,000×.
Bonus Blast
Bonus Blast can switch on at random in the base game and drops extra Bonus and Collect symbols onto the reels, raising the chance of starting the round on that spin.
Release, RTP and caps
Spinomenal released the game on 30 March 2026. One catalogue lists a 96.28% RTP; that figure is not verified for the embedded demo. The 5,000× figure is the point at which the bonus stops, not a promise of how often it is reached.
A Buy Feature is listed. The jackpot values themselves were not published in the sources checked.

Gorilla Blast is a tidy Hold & Hit game whose fixed reel roles make it easy to follow. Its appeal is almost entirely in the respin round; the base game is short and functional.
