How it feels

A punishing precision platformer where you must master simple controls to climb upward while listening to surreal banana monologues.

What players say

Players describe Banana Hell as a short but punishing precision platformer where one mistake sends you back to the start of the level. Reviews are split: some enjoy the challenge and damage boost tricks, while others find it a tedious rage bait game with forgettable music and level design. Many note the final level is disproportionately long and that the game lacks achievements.
