Play Wild Wild Bananas

Wild Wild Bananas takes Pragmatic Play’s reels to the beach, with a monkey, a toucan and plenty of bananas along for the trip. Behind the cartoon setting is a collection feature that relies on Wilds appearing on the first two reels. 

Among our slot games, this one has a slightly unusual shape: the final three reels are taller than the first two, and they can grow further during free spins. 

Bamboo frames the reels, with sand, blue water and tropical greenery in the background. The symbols follow the same colourful style, from the grinning monkey holding a drink to the wide-eyed toucan and coiled green snake. 

There’s a young jungle explorer, too, plus a pink flower and four jewel-like card suits. We like the small details in the character portraits, which give the game some personality without crowding the screen. The Banana Money symbols are easy to tell apart from the ordinary paying symbols because they carry their values directly on the reels. 

• Wilds appear on reels 1 and 2, replacing regular symbols but not Money or Bonus symbols. 
• Banana Money symbols appear on reels 3, 4 and 5. 
• The table shows payouts for individual winning combinations as multiples of the base total stake. 

Money Collect 

The numbers on the Banana Money symbols are collected when Wilds on reels 1 and 2 connect with Bananas on the following reels. The connection must run across neighbouring reels from the left, so scattered Bananas alone aren’t enough. 

This gives the Wilds two jobs. They can help complete ordinary symbol combinations, but they also provide the starting point for collecting Banana values. 

Free Spins 

A Wild on each of the first two reels, together with the Bonus symbol on reel 3, awards 10 free spins. Wilds and Banana Money symbols appear more frequently during this round, and Money Collect remains active. 

The bonus also introduces the Golden Money Banana. That’s where the reel layout starts to change, giving the final three reels room to hold more symbols. 

Golden Money Banana 

During free spins, a Golden Money Banana can expand a reel when that reel is completely filled with Money symbols. Reels 3, 4 and 5 can each grow from four rows to as many as eight. 

The extra spaces matter for both parts of the game: they can hold regular paying symbols or more Banana Money symbols. Collection still depends on the required connection from the first two reels, however tall the others become. 

The starting layout has three positions on each of the first two reels and four on each of the remaining three. That gives Wild Wild Bananas 576 ways to win. 

Matching symbols must appear on consecutive reels, beginning on the far left, but they don’t need to follow a fixed line. A combination can move between rows as it crosses the grid; a reel with no matching symbol breaks the sequence. 

• King Kong Cash Even Bigger Bananas Jackpot King: Its ape characters, bananas and jungle setting make it a close thematic match, with cash collection providing another point in common. 
• King Kong Cash Go Bananas Jackpot King: A cartoon ape takes centre stage in another banana-filled jungle game, sharing the lighter tone of Wild Wild Bananas. 
• Gorilla Riches: This swaps the beach for dense jungle scenery but keeps the tropical plants and animal-led theme. 

For us, the most interesting part of Wild Wild Bananas is how much depends on the first two reels. The Banana values draw the eye to the right, yet it’s the Wilds on the left that make those collections possible. 

Pragmatic Play has given the free spins a noticeable change of scale through the expanding reels. We see it as a more involved option in our online casino, particularly for players who enjoy watching cash symbols connect rather than following fixed paylines.
