Top Banana is a 1991 platform game published by Hex for the Acorn Archimedes, Amiga, Atari ST, and CDTV. The game is about trying to save the planet from environmental threats using love, and in line with the game's environmentalist theme, it was released with recycled cardboard packaging. Top Banana's music was produced by electronic music duo Coldcut, and the game features a techno music video as an introduction. Some reviewers praised Top Banana's techno soundtrack and original environmental plot, while others heavily criticized the game due to its repetitive and difficult gameplay and difficult to parse graphics.
