Banana Jones is one of the more adventurous games from RTG. Though the game is classified as slot, and certainly the mathematics remain the same as in most games, the style of the game isn’t exactly something that would remind you of a slot. Set up as a snakes and ladders board game, this game might be worth a look if you’re looking for something else.
Theme
Banana Jones himself seems to be an adventurer of sorts, this time stuck in some jungle. There’s a whole animation about the setup that is good enough to warrant a view. The graphics are far better than what you normally get in RTG games, and so are the audio effects. There are no reels here, so it is no surprise that the rest of the features have received a lot of extra attention.
Betting Options and Functions
Right, so you don’t roll the reels. Instead, you roll the dice and advance along the game board. As you advance you collect different symbols, and the more you collect the more prizes you are going to land. The goal is to make it all the way into the temple, and as you can guess you are not going to make it there on every roll of the dice. Each bet you set gives you five rolls of the dice to make it all the way to the top. Sometimes you might also land some extra dice rolls that come for free.
The wins are from another world when compared to normal slots, but then so is the gameplay. This combines into quite a high variance, which means that sometimes you win big and sometimes you land nothing at all. The top prize is over 2000 times your bet, so rolling the dice a few times is definitely worth the hassle.
Features
If you roll the dice just right and land on a bonus wheel symbol the first special feature is activated. This is a simple bonus wheel which pays out immediate cash prizes, these you get to keep even if you don’t make it all the way to the top. Possible wins range between 0.5 to 50 times your total bet.
The main feature is found at the end of the board. The Crystal Banana Quest launches once you reach it, and this gives you the chance to pick one chest among many. Each crate is filled with different symbols, and these are added to the total tally, greatly increasing any and all payouts from the current round.
Our Take
The downside is the linear gameplay. Then again, that is not so different from other games. It does mean that the game will eventually become a bit too repetitive. This is not necessarily a bad thing, as it gives you a proper reason to stop playing once you have had your fund. All things considered, this slot is certainly worth trying. The only difficulty is finding a casino to play this game at!

I love to play this game but at some of the casinos when playing with a deposit bonus it is mot allowed, considered a board game. I do okay pleying 1.00 bets. As far as spinning the wheel mostly hits low but have gotten multiplier x5 a few times as well. As far as the treasure chests the most won was 75.00. I do have a love - hate relationship with those treasure chests. Fingers crossed to choose all with bananas someday.

I like this game but at the same time can't stand it it is quite fun at times and has potential but it seems that every time I land on a wheel I end up with the .1 or .2 the highest I have got is .5 and the crystal banana game has never anymore than lowest denomination but I still play

Love this game! It's so addictive and fun to play. A unique take on snakes and ladders and the rewards can be quite good. If you make it to the temple at the end you're guaranteed to at least get your bet amount back, minimum. If you're really lucky and get a bigger win it's quite generous.

If you make it to the temple at the end you're guaranteed to at least get your bet amount back, minimum. If you're really lucky and get a bigger win it's quite generous. The spinning wheel is almost impossible to win any decent amount, but that would be it's only downfall in my opinion.

Could be somewhat habit forming if there was just more to it Game play is basically non-eventful, IF you get to the end it feels predetermined if you're getting the min-high prize. I could do without the game.

It is very surprising for RTG to launch this type of arcade game, huh. There must have been a big change internally in RTG like ownership change or management change. It doesn't really seem just a game change. Anyway, you have roll 2 dices five times to reach a bonus chamber. You can fail to reach there by getting smaller...

It doesn't really seem just a game change. Anyway, you have roll 2 dices five times to reach a bonus chamber. You can fail to reach there by getting smaller numbers from dices and get into snakes to fall... It is very very boring and disappointing game. Good luck.

I just don't like this game. It is not the kind of game for me. I just doesn't pass bany of the requirements I have for a game, so I'm sorry about that. It reminds me of a child's game. I don't like it and I'm very sorry RTG, we can't like everything. That would make life so hard......

This game was the weekly "free" game for Extreme and Brango. I do not like this game because, #1...it is too slow, even in the 2nd fast mode. #2 because you basically need to play $5 bets to increase your payroll. Somehow I made a $700 playthrough on Extreme but I played $5 bets the whole way (took me 5 hours!) and...
This game was the weekly "free" game for Extreme and Brango. I do not like this game because, #1...it is too slow, even in the 2nd fast mode. #2 because you basically need to play $5 bets to increase your payroll. Somehow I made a $700 playthrough on Extreme but I played $5 bets the whole way (took me 5 hours!) and got lucky. I wouldn't play this game with real money unless I had approx. $300 in my account and played $5 bets.
