Bananas go Bahamas: two bananas on holiday

Not a monkey in sight

The name sounds like a sequel to Banana Splash, but the stars here are the bananas themselves. Cartoon characters dressed for the beach, they share the reels with holiday props and the usual card values. Bright cartoon colours keep the mood light from the first spin.

Behind the jokes is a standard Novomatic structure, five reels by three rows with fixed paylines, so the game plays exactly as fans of the studio expect.

Wild, scatter and free games

As in most classic Novomatic titles, a wild completes winning lines and a scatter, landing in sufficient numbers anywhere on the reels, opens a free games round. The info screen lists which symbols do what and how the bonus works, including the number of free games. A quick read in the demo is the easiest way to avoid mixing it up with Banana Splash, which follows its own rules.

A Deluxe edition also exists, with sharper graphics but the same holiday spirit.

Bananas go Bahamas demo tips

The demo gives you 1,000 virtual credits, no download and no sign-up. A session of about 200 to 250 spins at a stake equal to £0.20 should show you at least one free games round. Note how much of your balance went in before it arrived, then what came back. That single comparison says a lot about whether this game suits your style.

If you have time, play the same number of spins on Banana Splash at the same stake. The themes are close; the rhythm may not be, and rhythm is usually what decides whether you come back.

Gamble, and the real-money version

Each win can go on the card gamble, double or nothing on red or black. Test it freely here, where it costs nothing. The same game is available for real money at the casinos listed below.
