Bonus Rounds and Payouts
Funky Monkey is a classic-styled slot, only 3 reels and 1 pay-line. As with
most slots of this traditional set up, it does not have any bonus rounds,
special symbols or fancy features. However, the high pay-outs make up for the
lack of bonus features
The lowest paying symbols in the game are the 1Bar, 2Bar and 3Bar symbols.
The pay-out for these symbols ranges from 10 to 180x your bet depending on which
Bars you land and how many of them you land. The Banana Bunch pays
slightly more, at 240x your bet for 3 in a row. The Sunglasses symbol rewards
players with 300x their bet for landing 3 of a kind in winning combo, while the
Yellow Huts pay out 600x for the same combination. The Palm Trees are
second-most valuable symbol and reward players with 1200x their bet for spinning
in 3 or them. The Bongo Drums are the game’s most valuable symbol and award
players with a maximum of 2500x their bet.
There are awards for landing 1 symbol as well as 2 symbols for each and every
symbol. This may sound as if you can never lose, but it is important to remember
that in these classic style games that full symbols don’t always spin into view.
More often than not, symbols are cut off half way. The good news is that you will
be rewarded when any 3 symbols in their entirety land on the reels.
Additional Game Features
The higher your bet is, the higher your pay-outs will be, so it is advisable
to always bet the maximum amount. Funky Monkey makes this easy to do by their
addition of the ‘Max Bet’ button that allows players to automatically bet the
maximum amount on every spin.

Summary
Playtech has given a classic and conventional-styled online slot game a very
unconventional theme. The crazy theme of Funky Monkey has done a great job in
bringing humor and excitement to a game that would otherwise have a relatively
dull setup. The game’s mascot seems to have stepped straight out of a famous
movie.
The graphics are of high quality and have a semi-realistic cartoon feel.
The soundtrack matches the theme to upmost perfection and adds an additional
level of cheerfulness to the slot game. Although Funky Monkey is void of bonus
features, wilds and scatters, the game is still engaging and there is major
winning potential with the incredible jackpot of 2,500x your bet.
