Habanero built Happy Ape in 2020 around a mischievous jungle ape and a stack of treasure chests, and rates this 15-payline, 5x3 slot high for volatility. The chests hold random prizes such as Both Ways, multipliers, scatters and wilds, and a scatter-triggered round brings up to 36 free games with a chest on every spin.

Game mechanics

Random chest prizes come on top of the line wins from the 15 paylines, and each one can turn out to be Both Ways, multipliers, scatters or wilds.

Ape Smash steps in to remove non-winning combinations and guarantee a win. Three or more scatters start up to 36 free games, and every spin in that round comes with a guaranteed chest prize. The top multiplier Habanero publishes is 5,778x.

Features

  • Treasure chests. A chest prize can arrive at random and may be Both Ways, multipliers, scatters or wilds.
  • Ape Smash. The ape removes non-winning combinations to make sure the spin ends in a win.
  • Up to 36 free games. Three or more scatters set off the round, and each of its spins guarantees a chest prize.

Why Happy Ape has five RTP settings

Habanero's website lists five RTP settings for Happy Ape: about 86%, 92%, 94%, 97% and 98%. Each version keeps the name and artwork, with the maths tuned to a different long-run return. The casino picks which one it runs, within any minimum its regulator sets. Studios say they offer several because markets differ: minimums vary between regulators, and casinos weigh taxes, margins and commercial terms. A higher setting does not guarantee a profit, and a short session can finish up or down either way. This demo uses virtual credits: nothing is deposited, withdrawn or paid out, so the setting has no financial effect.

How to play the free demo

  1. Keep an eye on the chests in the Happy Ape demo, whose random prizes can be Both Ways, multipliers, scatters or wilds.
  2. When the ape smashes in, note how the non-winning combinations disappear to leave a guaranteed win.
  3. Three or more scatters start up to 36 free games, where every spin hands out a chest prize.

Why try the Happy Ape demo

Because the chest prizes are random, a stretch of spins in the demo shows what they can hold, from Both Ways to wilds, and the free games hand one out on every spin. Ape Smash is easier to grasp on screen as well, as it clears away non-winning combinations so the spin still ends in a win.
