I must have been living under a rock most of this year because I have been active for most of the year but just noticed Banana recently.

I've done a lot of research on Banana, it seems Banana peaked in popularity in the Summer of 2024 and a lot of people including notable social media influencers have criticized Banana, calling it a scam. Personally, I don't agree with the notion that Banana is a scam, because the drop system seems to function as advertised. If the scam claim was legitimate, surely Valve would have noticed and taken this this game down by now.

It's completely normal to often receive a normal banana, common banana and uncommon banana which are all worthless banana drops. Rather than feeling disappointed about earning them, continue playing Banana and stack the bananas you have earned together to create bananas with greater value. Bananas generally have some decent value starting at the Legendary rarity. Banana is all about patience and investing time.


Personally, I like the concept of this game. It feels like mining for valuable cryptocurrencies. Earning these bananas (except for normal) can be a great investment for the long term. Imagine the value that bananas which no longer drop will have in a few years. It'll be greater than its value now.

I have no comments to make about the game itself because it's not really a game. The truth is that Banana is not a game about clicking a banana (even though it offers the feature of clicking a banana); Banana is rather designed as an application meant to be opened every 3 hours so that it can drop you Steam items of Bananas with differentiating textures and values.


Lastly, I want to share a concern I have about Banana ever since I began playing it:

1. Farming Bananas With Bots - There have been rumors spread around that many players constantly run bots to collect bananas. This likely explains why there is a high concurrent player count for a game that is meant to be played for a few seconds every three hours. I have no idea if this is achievable or not, but consider limiting the amount of players associated with the same IP address to 2 or 3, in order to address this issue. If the claim about bots is true, then please put an end to it somehow because those running bots have an unfair advantage over players who do not run bots.


(I did not rate Banana as it's not really meant to be received as a game)
