Introduction to Links of Ra Cashingo King Millions
Links of Ra Cashingo King Millions is a casino slot from Slingshot Studios that delivers on the studio’s unique bingo board feature alongside a familiar setting. The titular Cashingo feature is a bit of a strange one, as it adds an entirely new playing grid for new types of wins. However, it isn’t the first time we’ve seen it, as Slingshot Studios has released other titles with the same mechanic, as seen in games like Mermaids Millions Cashingo, Rumble Kong Cashingo, Eruption Blaze Cashingo, and more. But that isn’t the only familiar thing, as Links of Ra is our foundation, an already established series with releases like Links of Ra Assembl’Em Power Combo and Links of Ra II. Then, on top of this, we have one of Games Global’s favorite features, the titular King Millions. Because of all this, we wouldn’t really wanna call this an original release, as it mostly feels like it was slapped together from multiple already established foundations and features. Its gameplay loop is, at its core, all about its Cash Collecting and Ultra Link & Win bonus game, with the occasional Cashingo and King Million prizes sprinkled in. However, for those who enjoy these types of releases, which seem to be pretty common for many of Games Global’s partner studios, Links of Ra Cashingo King Millions may be a game for you, alongside its max win of 13,282X the bet and progressive Jackpot prizes.
Links of Ra Cashingo King Millions is a release filled with various, previously seen, features, mechanics, and themes, making it feel like a rather complex and weirdly designed game.
Theme, Gameplay, & Payouts

The lower-paying symbols are various colored gems, including purple, teal, yellow, and red. Creating a win with 5 of the same symbols will pay out 1.6X to 1.8X the bet.

King Million
The King Millions feature is a progressive Jackpot that levels up across multiple games and can be won in any of said games. During the game, King Million Tokens can appear on top of high and low paying symbols and will be collected to randomly award you a spin on the King Millions Fortune Wheel. When triggered, you’ll send a spin on the Bonus Wheel, awarding either 1 of the 2 progressive prizes or a Cash Prize between 7X and 100X.
Final Thoughts on Links of Ra Cashingo King Millions
The Links of Ra series is no stranger to being propped full with a wide array of Game Global’s favorite titular features, and Links of Ra Cashingo King Millions is a perfect example of that. It’s not that we think these features, or even releases, are bad, however, they can leave a bit of a sour taste in our mouths when we feel like most of the releases are plain reskins. Links of Ra Cashingo King Millions, when it comes to its theme, is mostly the same, only bringing slightly new visuals, and the huge new Cashingo playing grid, to really stand out in its presentation, which isn’t really all that interesting.
When it comes to its gameplay, as we mentioned earlier, the main gameplay loop doesn’t really interact with the flashy titular features. Instead, they take a back seat as occasional prizes that can be won during normal gameplay, making them feel rather redundant at times. The core feature, which is the Cash Collect and Ultra Link&Win, is where most of your wins will be hit, and it plays out as any other regular Cash Collect mechanic and bonus game does. Except for the fact of the Ultra Upgrades and Hot Mode mechanics, which are a fun little extra bonus to help set up for bigger and more volatile bonus games, and are really what carries the game. Then there’s the Power Stacks mechanic, and while they’re a nice random thing that can help form wins in the base game, they aren’t the most consistent, and the Free Spins feature isn’t all too interesting, as it only makes Power Stacks of Wilds and Coins and doesn’t feel impactful enough to really keep our attention.
All in all, Links of Ra Cashingo King Millions is a game that seems to want to pull you in with its titular features, but doesn’t offer an engaging or great gameplay loop to really keep us hooked. But if you feel like you might be part of the target audience, meaning fans of Cashingo and King Million mechanics, this game might just be for you.
Links of Ra Cashingo King Millions is a slot that draws inspiration from many corners of the studio’s portfolio, but it fails to really keep us engaged and invested while on the hunt for potentially explosive wins.
