Go Bananas!

The Go Bananas slot from gaming giants NetEnt is another primate themed online slot game from Sweden. We´re fans of Planet of the Apes slot  too

The Graphics

The Go Bananas slot has crisper graphics than a submarine’s radar. The humorous and comic styling is high quality enough to have stepped right off the big screen and onto the reels. NetEnt are good at toon styling (we’d rate the Koi Princess slot machine in this regard) and this game is no exception.

High in the treetops perches a tree house, the perfect setting for the game. The sharp-eyed among you will note the rubber tyre for playful primates and bunches of bananas. This is where the five primates at the centre of this game spend their down time. The reels are awash with a mission-honed crew of five monkeys and some of their treasures. You might think you’re in the Butterfly Staxx slot for a second this being a jungle game- that’s because both of these games are from Net Ent.

If you are playing this slot, prick your furry ears up you will hear some jazzy calypso-style drums and soothing jungle sounds of birdsong and insects in the background. Home Sweet Home. There’s the chatter of monkeys too- that’s top secret mission information that they’re whispering about and it’s on a strictly Need to Know basis!

The Play

This arboreal adventure is played out over 3 rows, 5 reels and 20 pay-lines. Let’s swing up a few branches, Go Bananas and see what we can find, shall we?

A gigantic pink ruby clutched by some hairy hands is the highest value icon. When you are playing this slot, capture five of these on an active pay-line and you will earn a 700 coin wallet-busting treat. Up next there’s a ruby encrusted gold monkey statue, a bulging monkey money clip, a pair of bongo drums and a banana split desert- well, why not?

The lower value icons of the Go Bananas slot game are five juicy patterned fruits.

There are also a promising-looking troop of monkeys who make the bonus game come to life. More of these rewarding chaps later.
A giant golden banana emblazoned with the word “Wild” substitutes for all icons. But, pay attention slot lovers: this Wild only comes into play when triggered by the appearance of Wild Monkey icons.

The Bonuses

The big money in the Go Bananas slot comes into play when one of five different primate characters lands on the reels. When a monkey appears, it lands and spreads to adjacent reels in a range of different patterns depending on the species.

The bully boy of the crew is a hulking Wild Gorilla: he lands creating five Wilds. The Wild Orangutan (a curvy creature toting a flower in her hair) creates a square of four Wilds together. The blue-nosed Wild Baboon brings a line of three vertical Wilds to reels while the Wild Langur brings a trio of vertical Wilds into play. Last, but not least, is the diminutive Wild Tarsier which brings a duo of vertical or horizontal Wilds for you. So, as you see, these nice fellas and lasses are there to help net you a win. How very civilised!

Monkey Verdict

The Go Bananas slot is a medium variance game with a creative and characterful bonus game which is relatively easy to trigger.

Monkey Score: 4 out of 5 bananas
