Bonzo’s Bananza Slot

Ladies and gerbils, to make this slot review introduction for Bonzo’s Bananza by ELK Studios more a-peeling, we’ve generously sprinkled in a few fruit-based puns. You’re welcome. 

The “we” I refer to is myself and the much-revered (and still criminally unknighted) David Slottenborough. David is our in-house specialist on Animal Slots. He will play and study the game, which in fact means that he will sit at home whilst he sends out a bunch of his team to do the job for him.

As always, the demo of this game is ape-solutely free for all members of our site. If you’ve not yet registered, take a deep breath, question your life choices briefly, and then come back and sign up like the responsible adult you are.

ELK Studios is the master of gaming innovation and entertainment, but what stands between you and landing the big prizes? Well, the Bonzo’s Bananza slot RTP is 94.00%, which is what every ELK slot comes with, so no surprises there. This score is 2.00% lower than the average online slot. This is also one of the provider’s high volatility slots, which can produce fewer hits but larger returns when they happen.

The game plays on a 5x5 layout with 259 ways to win. To win, you need to land three or more matching symbols along adjacent reels. The cost of play per spin ranges from $0.20 to $100. The maximum payout is 10,000x your bet, so the highest jackpot is $1,000,000! This, again, is the standard for ELK slots.

I don’t think it’s particularly great value for money compared to other slots and developers on the market, so do think about how you’ll budget your game time.

Let’s take a closer look at what special features of this game can help you achieve success. You have the fully stacked Sticky Multiplier Wild, the classic Free Spins bonus game, the Nudging Multiplier, and the ever-present X-iter, which is ELK’s version of a Bonus Buy feature.

The game has its moments of fun and entertainment, but then, you will come across those moments when the high volatility makes itself known, and after 15 spins, you realize nothing has happened. This shouldn’t put you off; the reality is that all ELK Studio slots are like this, and the only reason you should persist is simply that the provider’s games are generally highly enjoyable.

Bonzo’s Bananza isn’t its most inventive game, but in an odd way, it’s a refreshing break from its more over-the-top slots. This game, compared to, say, Pirots 4, is a blissful walk in the park. No chaos, just easy, simple gaming and design.
