Crazy Bananas - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

Fans of Booming Games slots will enjoy this fun and entertaining five-reel, 20-payline slot with an innovative free spins feature with plus 1 respins.

The objective is to land matching symbols on the 20 paylines and unlock the highly entertaining free spins bonus by landing scatter symbols anywhere in view. That Banana Battle bonus adds extra free spins and high-paying banana prizes. Watch out for the bad banana symbol, as this can block any win.

There are just 10 paytable symbols, including the four special symbols, and a top base game win of 500x your stake. Be aware that this is a high variance slot, so you will need plenty of patience to unlock its potential.

The layout is typical of Booming Games classic slots with its 5x3 grid and intuitive game controls. It makes gameplay a breeze; however, with its high volatility, you may want to try before you buy with some demo mode spins.

Mobile gamers will love the way the bright and breezy graphics of this browser-based slot look on any mobile device.

Theme, graphics & soundtrack

It really is all about the bananas in this slot with its jungle flavour and a jaunty ukulele soundtrack.

The banana arrives stacked on the reels in a gilded frame on a sky blue background, which makes its yellowness really pop.

There is a pina colada just waiting to happen in the paytable, with coconuts and pineapples galore; what’s more, banana leaf symbols stand in for the usual royals. They spin on five transparent reels so that we can glimpse the jungle beyond.

Everything is drawn in a comic book style, with the lush jungle alive with fireflies. There is no doubt that Crazy Bananas is a fun way to pass the time in this laidback jungle paradise.

RTP & volatility

Risk-takers will enjoy the high variance gameplay with some good payouts on offer but may find the 95.12 per cent RTP a little on the low side.

How to play Crazy Bananas

Crazy Bananas is a fun slot with high volatility, so protect your bankroll by setting a session budget before you spin.

Players of Booming Games will recognise the proprietary interface that makes it quick and easy to set up your game:

1. The paytable and the game rules can be found to the bottom left of the screen, so take the time to find out what is in store. The paytable automatically updates as you change your bet.

2. You can choose to play between 10 and 100 autospins in the autoplay menu.

3. To the bottom right are the controls to adjust the sounds and music and the speed of your spins.

4. You can’t play without setting a total bet, so choose one you are comfortable with or use bet max, then hit the spin button to play.

Min & max bets + top wins

This slot has a range of betting options that will suit most players. You can play from as little as 0.20 coins per spin. You don’t have to set any parameters and there is a bet max option for players who want to play the maximum stake of 400 coins in just one click. When it comes to payouts, the wild symbol lands you 500x your stake; however, remember that this slot is highly volatile. Taking a look at the paytable, all symbols pay out in multipliers of your stake. The maximum five-of-a-kind payouts are as follows:

- Banana pays 40x
- Coconut pays 12.5x
- Pineapple pays 10x
- Three leaves pay 4x
- Two leaves pay 3x
- One leaf pays 2.5x

Banana Battle bonus game

- The Crazy Bananas logo is the scatter, with three or more triggering the Banana Battle bonus:

There are only three symbols on the reels in the Bonus Battle:

- The +1 banana, which adds another spin to your total remaining.
- The bad banana, which blocks any space it lands on to prevent a winning combination.

Overall review: our verdict

Crazy Bananas doesn’t take itself too seriously but there is plenty of potential for casual and dedicated players alike to enjoy - and who doesn't love a nice ripe banana?.

Land the free spins and you can almost smell those bad bananas, but we enjoyed this unusual feature when it finally landed. We also loved the look of this game, with everything integrated into the theme and some bold, bright visuals.

All in all, this slot is a really good effort from Booming Games. If you love the bananas theme and some crazy wild gameplay, the Go Bananas online slot from NetEnt also has high replayability.
