Get Ready for Some Fun Monkey Business
The new game relies on a scatter pays system mixed with free spins, progressive win multipliers, and cascades. Players can win up to 10,000x in max wins in this slot that taps into the old-school design and atmosphere of earlier Donkey Kong-based games.
The monkey-themed game introduces players to a captivating world led by monkey mobsters where every symbol comes with a multiplier tied to it. All multipliers are instantly added to all players’ wins. They also double their size after a consecutive win that includes the respective symbol. The same feature can also be triggered in a random manner. In this case, the feature assigns a random multiplier upgrade to any number of symbols on the reels at the beginning of a fresh spin.
Players must keep an eye on a minimum of eight matching symbols anywhere on the grid to collect a payout. Low-paying symbols are represented by green red, blue, and yellow bananas and gangster monkeys. When a player lands eight or nine matching symbols, they get a 0.5x boost for low-paying symbols, and between 1x and 4x for high-paying symbols. Matching 12 identical symbols means players collect between 2x and 3x for low-paying symbols and between 4x and 12x for premium symbols.
Relax Gaming’s chief product officer Simon Hammon promises the retro-style slot will carry players to an “unforgettable” place thanks to the “memorable features and mechanics”. He added that fans of large multipliers and mouth-watering wins are prone to go bananas for the new release.
Banana Town Game Features
The features in the game consist of a progressive multiplier system available during the base game. Once a scatter win occurs, the winning symbols vanish from the grid and the remaining symbols fall down in order to gradually close the gaps. When a fresh winning scatter occurs, the cascade feature is triggered on repeat until there are no more new wins left. All wins are collected with the help of a meter placed to the right of the grid. Each winning symbol boosts its corresponding win multiplier, starting at x1 and doubling up to x64 after each symbol win.
Landing at least three dollar sign symbols brings players eight free spins, plus an additional spin for each extra dollar sign that is found on the grid. When the free spins round is engaged, each individual dollar sign symbol can add one more free spin to the game. Players can also pay 100x the initial bet to instantly trigger the free spins round.
