Go Bananas! Slot

How to play: Simple spinning with wild surprises

Go Bananas! is super easy to get into. It runs on a 5-reel, 3-row layout with 20 fixed paylines, so you don't have to fiddle with how many lines you're betting on. Just choose your coin value and bet level, hit spin, and you're off to the jungle.

Bet range:

• Coin value: Starts at 0.01 and goes up to 1.00
• Bet levels: 1 to 10
• So, depending on how adventurous you're feeling, your total bet per spin can range from a very chilly $0.20 to a full-blown jungle expedition at $200

Once you hit the spin button, symbols will land. Payouts are calculated from left to right on all paylines - nothing fancy or unexpected here.

Monkey Business: The wild features that steal the show

Okay, this is where the game gets exciting. You know how most slots have free spins, bonus rounds or multipliers? Well, Go Bananas! does things a little differently. Instead of bonus games, it brings in the monkeys - literally. These little jungle troublemakers are the heart and soul of the action, and they come with their own wild-turning powers that can turn an average spin into a mini jackpot.

In Go Bananas! the Wilds don't just appear at random. Instead, they're created by special monkey symbols, and each type of monkey transforms a specific pattern of adjacent symbols into Wilds the moment they land on the reels. No waiting, no unlocking - it happens instantly.

Let's break down the five types of monkeys and what kind of Wild magic each one brings:

Gorilla Wild - King of the jungle

This guy is the heavyweight champion of the jungle. When he lands on the reels, get ready for some big action. The Gorilla turns five symbols into Wilds in a cross pattern.

Think of it like this: he lands in the centre and radiates wild energy in all four directions. It's a super-valuable pattern because it covers a nice chunk of the reel area and often results in multiple wins at once.

Orangutan Wild - The Power Block

This shaggy orange guy is all about taking up space - in the best way. When he appears, he turns a 2x2 block of symbols around him into Wilds. That's four Wilds packed tightly together.

Imagine a square grid of four - that's a decent cluster, and when it overlaps with high paying symbols or other monkeys, it can snowball into a hefty payout.

Baboon Wild - The Ninja

This guy doesn't play by the rules - he's all about Wild reels. When the Baboon lands, he turns three symbols vertically into Wilds (as if the whole reel is Wild).

Think of it as a Wild reel - from top to bottom or vice versa. It's a bit unpredictable, but that's part of the fun. It often helps you get wins you didn't expect, especially when the rest of the line is almost complete.

Langur Wild - The sideways swinger

This monkey loves to play horizontally. When the Langur appears, it turns three symbols in a horizontal line into Wilds - that's one to the left, one to the right and the monkey itself in the middle.

It's a nice little line that can nicely complete winning paylines, especially if you've already got good symbols on the leftmost reels.

Tarsier Wild - The Mystery Drop

The smallest of the monkeys, but don't underestimate him. The Tarsier goes up and down, left and right and turns two symbols vertically or horizontally into Wilds - one above or to the right, plus the monkey itself.

It's like a pair of Wilds, and while it doesn't cover as many paylines as a Baboon or Langur, it can still hit surprisingly well when the right symbols are lined up.

Why these features matter

These Wild Monkey mechanics may sound a bit random, but they're what make Go Bananas! stand out from the crowd. You don't have to rely on free spins or complicated triggers. Instead, the thrill comes from watching a monkey drop onto the screen and suddenly turn an entire reel into a Wild mess.

What's even more fun is that more than one monkey can land on the same spin, and when that happens - oh boy - you better believe things are going to get crazy. Wilds from different monkeys can overlap or hit different parts of the grid, and when this happens alongside high-paying symbols, you'll see your balance shoot up faster than a monkey climbing a palm tree.

Pay attention to where the monkeys land: As each one affects different directions or patterns, a monkey in the centre of the reels has far more potential than one tucked away on the edge. A Gorilla in the centre, for example, can turn four adjacent symbols into Wilds.

So yes, Go Bananas! is about watching for that moment when a monkey appears - and knowing that a mini-party is about to start right on the reels. It's chaotic, colourful and way more fun than it should be.
