Even before *Donkey Kong Bananza* hits the shelves, a fan named 2Chrispy has cracked the code of the game's secret banana alphabet. On April 27, 2Chrispy shared his findings in a YouTube video titled "I Decoded the Ancient Monkey Scrolls of Donkey Kong Bananza." The video meticulously details how he decoded the "Ancient Monkey Scrolls," a cryptic system of letters seen across the game’s trailers, gameplay footage, and official website.

While invented languages in video games are nothing new—Nintendo previously introduced Hylian in *The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild*—uncovering such a language before the game's release is a rare feat. This achievement highlights the enthusiasm of Donkey Kong fans, who may be driven by excitement or simply the anticipation of waiting for more game news. Although the decoded alphabet is yet to be officially confirmed, 2Chrispy’s thorough analysis and detailed process have convinced many fans of its accuracy.

In his video, 2Chrispy explains his method for deciphering the "bananbet," beginning with the term "Chip Exchange." When players collect a Banandium Chip, a message pops up: "Trade these for bananas at any Chip Exchange." 2Chrispy meticulously analyzed game trailers frame-by-frame, focusing on the "Chip Exchange" location. He hypothesized that the signage could serve as a starting point for decoding.

He observed that the symbols on the signage corresponded to the number of letters in "exchange," with the repeating letter "e" supporting his theory. 2Chrispy then applied this method to other symbols found in screenshots and trailers, using a word finder app to piece together the rest of the alphabet.

While these findings remain theories and speculations at this point, the effort and dedication 2Chrispy put into analyzing the game's content are commendable. As fans eagerly await more news about *Donkey Kong Bananza*, discoveries like these may inspire further exploration based on the available trailers and screenshots.

*Donkey Kong Bananza* is scheduled to launch on July 17, 2025, exclusively on the Nintendo Switch 2. Stay tuned for the latest updates and more exciting information about the game by checking out our related articles below!
