Banana Monkey is a jungle-themed Playtech slot machine with bright, playful colors and lively, quirky sounds. It’s one of the newest releases from the reputable software distributors, and already it’s turning heads due to its huge jackpots and unique bonus game structure.

The Banana Monkey is the actual main character of the slot machine, and you’ll see a couple of different variations of him throughout the course of playing. You’ll also see some Zebras, broken Coconuts, Giraffes, and playing cards like the Ace, King, Queen, Jack, Ten, and Nine

The Cluttered Banana slot is the scatter symbol, and the big, smiling monkey (face) is the wild which substitutes for every slot but the scatter and regular Banana. The regular Banana slot is an important feature. Each time you get one of these, it drops into a basket below. Collect four Bananas in your basket and you’ll catch some free spins plus 3x your bet.

The biggest reason for Banana Monkey’s popularity as a slot machine is its other lucrative features. After every when, you’ll be taken to a Gambling Feature screen, where you can either up your winnings by 100% or 50%, depending on whether or not you can draw a higher card than the dealer.

To trigger the bonus game, you’ll need to hit that smiling and swinging monkey (bonus symbol) on reels 1, 3 and 5. The progressive bonus round is played similar to the old Donkey Kong video game. You’ll actually use your skills here instead of just spinning, and you have to jump between two trees and collect as many bananas as you can before reaching the top. Along the way, you can grab a 2x multiplier. Even dropped bananas are caught in the basket, and the game ends once catching 25.

If you can hit 5 swinging monkeys on adjoining reels, you can win up to $750,000 – depending on the bet. Banana Monkey also caters to both high-rollers and beginners, so anyone can play.
