GAME FEATURES


Graphics

When we load up the Banana Odyssey slot, we’re introduced to our two heroes – Chip and Buck, space chimps who take us on an out-of-this-world adventure. The reels are set against a space background, while all symbols are space-related too. That includes the standard card values, Jack, Queen, King and Ace, along with the Banana Blaster, Astro Nuts and the chimps Buck and Chip. The monkeys are the most rewarding symbols, giving us 1.2, three and ten times our stake for three, four of five on a payline. With each spin we can enjoy smooth and fun visuals, accompanied by a feel-good soundtrack. Fiery comets fly through winning paylines to highlight our wins in spectacular fashion.


Gameplay

Banana Odyssey is a Win Both Ways slot which means it’s even easier to land winning combinations. So when the symbols land after a spin, we watch the combinations match across the screen, before flashing up with a win! This is made even better by the Banana Planet Wild, which appears across the second, third and fourth reels. It replaces all the other symbols, except the Scatter, to help create bigger wins. Even better, it comes as an Expanding Wild which means it transforms the reel it’s on Wild, taking it over. Is that it? Nope. Once it’s in place, it stays there while we get a Respin! There is more than a nod to Starburst here, but it’s definitely homage rather than plagiarism. More Wilds can still land, expand and lock in place to give us up to three Respins and a lucrative number of wins! Where Banana Odyssey zooms past Starburst in hyperspeed is in the addition of a nifty Free Spins feature, which is triggered when we get the Free Spins Scatter symbol on the second, third and fourth reels. We land ten Free Spins and, like the Respins, we can benefit from Expanding Wilds throughout. However, unlike the Respins, we can’t retrigger any more Free Spins.


Verdict

Microgaming and Slingshot Studios give us an exciting, space-themed slot to enjoy. And it’s made even better by giving us two space ape characters, Buck and Chip to follow as well. Although the Banana Odyssey might not pay out as much as some other jackpot slots, it can still give us an impressive 400 times our stake when the chimps appear on the reels. If you’re like us and are a fan of bright visuals, great graphics and a slot that boasts oodles of playability, then prepare for a voyage on the Banana Odyssey slot.
