Banana Odyssey

Banana Odyssey is a fun expedition into deep space lead by the charming astrochimp duo, Buck and Chip. This game was developed by Slingshot Studios, and launched on Microgaming’s Quickfire platform on the 10th of July 2019. Buckle your seatbelt, cause you might be in for quite a ride here, and we can promise you some entertaining moments with this game for sure.

It all plays out on 5 reels, 3 rows and 10 paylines, and you can place bets as high as £400 across all platforms and devices. The goal of the astrochimps is, of course, to conquer the Banana Planet, and you can win both ways when you play this game. The base game comes with a re-spins feature with expanding sticky wilds, and this can sometimes lead to nice payouts.

The main bonus feature is the free spins game where you also benefit from expanding sticky wilds, however these will remain sticky for the duration of the feature. The RTP of this game is a pretty standard 96.31%, and the medium volatility will keep your ride smooth and nice. Don't’ expect massive payouts though, cause the max potential here is 400 times your stake.

What symbols are there?

When going on a journey into deep space with a couple of chimpanzees, it’s only natural that the symbols are nuts and a banana zapper of some kind. The high value symbols are naturally the astrochimps themselves, and you also find the regular low value royal symbols here. You win by landing 3 to 5 matching symbols on a payline, and the paytable looks like this:

• Astrochimp Buck - Pays 10x for 5 matching symbols on a payline
• Astrochimp Chip - Pays 10x for 5 matching symbols on a payline
• Banana Blaster - Pays 8x for 5 matching symbols on a payline
• Astro Nuts - Pays 6x for 5 matching symbols on a payline
• Card Suit symbols - Pay between 3.5x to 2x for 5 on a payline

What are the bonus features?

The wild symbol on Banana Odyssey is a Banana Planet, and it can land on reels 2, 3 and 4 (that is the middle reels). It will act as a substitute for all symbols except the scatter symbol, and any time the Banana Planet wild lands it will expand to cover the entire reel or reels.

It does not stop with that, however, cause this is really a wild re-spins feature. The wild reel will become sticky and frozen in place, and you get a re-spin. If you land another wild the process continues, and this way you can get up to 3 re-spins and 3 fully stacked sticky wilds.

Free spins in Banana Odyssey

The free spins feature on Banana Odyssey slot is triggered when you land 3 scatter symbols on the same spin on the 3 middle reels. This will give you 10 free spins, and you’ll also benefit from expanding Banana Planet wilds during the free spins feature. The big difference is that the fully stacked wild reel will remain sticky and frozen in place throughout the whole feature. It’s not possible to re-trigger the free spins feature, however.

What is the jackpot (max win)?

Banana Odyssey does not come with any kind of jackpot, neither progressive nor fixed. Since this is a medium variance game, you cannot expect too much from the potential either. The max win is 400 times your stake, and £400 happens to be the max bet. This means you can win up to £160 000 on a single spin if you play with the highest possible stakes.

SlotCatalog verdict

Banana Odyssey is by all means a very charming and fun slot to play, but the low potential will probably not impress the more serious gamblers out there. If you’re looking for a good time playing a medium variance slot, than going on a journey into space with a couple of chimps is probably not the worst idea that could pop into anyone’s head.

Pros

• Re-spins with stacked sticky wilds
• Free spins with stacked sticky wilds
• Medium variance feel-good game

Cons

• Potential too low for “serious” gamblers
