24 July, 2018: Johannesburg, South Africa – Banana Jones is calling on players at South Africa’s favourite online casino, Springbok Casino, to help him navigate his way through the ominous temple of Leopold the Leopard in search of the Crystal Banana. 

Banana Jones is unique in that it’s not a traditional slot or table game; instead, it uses a snakes and ladders board game format where players roll the dice five times for each bet. 

The idea is to help Banana Jones navigate his way through the ominous temple of Leopold the Leopard, avoiding his army of snakes in search of the Crystal Banana. 

But danger lurks around every corner. 

If Banana Jones lands on the head of a snake he slides down its body towards the tail and further away from the temple; while landing on a vine will swing him closer. 

Players collect symbols along the way, which are recorded in a counter and pay out according to the pay table. The game boasts two features; Treasure Wheel and Crystal Banana Quest for the chance to win even more prizes. 

The former is triggered when Banana Jones lands on the Treasure Wheel at the head of the board, awarding one spin for a cash prize. The latter is triggered when Banana Jones reaches the Giant Temple at the head of the board. 

The player must then choose a chest; each chest contains different fruit – plum, apple, banana, grape, pear – which is added to their symbol counter. The first counter to be completed awards the prize displayed. 

Springbok Casino Manager, Daniel Van Wyke, said: “Banana Jones needs your help to defeat Leopold and his snakes, and to find the Crystal Banana. “The unique game format is exciting and thrilling to play, and with plenty of prizes up for grabs you’d have to be bananas not to give it a spin.” 

Banana Jones will launch on Springbok on 1^st August 2018 and can be accessed via download, instant-play and mobile.
