Pirate’s Gold is quite clear on what kind of theme it offers, the one-eyed pirate being visible at the top of the screen, with a sword in his hand, with cannons nearby and with his parrot sitting on a perch. This is also a classic slot machine in the body of a modern title, so the design isn’t exactly as good as in most modern pirate slots. However, it will be one of the better 3 reel titles you will find these days, so it has its own pros to take into consideration.
While it does have 5 reels with 9 paylines, the marks of a modern slot, it has few features to give you, so it’s not going to be that exciting to play in the long run. However, its scatter symbol can at least give you access to a bonus game, so it’s better than nothing. Its best payout will put up to $10,000 in your pocket.
Features of Pirate’s Gold
Just because a game has 5 reels it doesn’t mean that it will be automatically full of features. This particular title has a scatter symbol inside, triggering a bonus game, and that’s about it.
Bonus Game
The Pirate Coin symbol is capable of appearing on the reels of the slot in random positions and to trigger a bonus game, as long as there are enough of them (3+ needed).
When you meet the requirements, with 3+ scatters appearing during the same round, you get access to a bonus game where you have to fire your cannons and try to sink one of the enemy ships. The ship you sink will reward you with 100x, 50x or 10x the bet value. If you’re really lucky, you will get the ship that has the Golden Key inside, which will take you to the next level of the bonus game, called Treasure Chest.
In Treasure Chest, you get to select from the five treasure chests found inside a cave of some sort. You’re the one guiding your parrot to one chest or another, which it opens with the help of the key. The payouts vary between 100x and 1000x the line bet.
Betting options and jackpots
There are up to 9 paylines that can be activated in this game, each one accepting a maximum of 10 coins. Despite the use of up to 90 coins, it’s not an expensive slot machine, as the denomination is fixed at $0.10. There is a $1 line bet as a result, with the total reaching $9 per spin.
The slot’s rewards will put up to $10,000 in your wallet, not a bad amount considering that it’s a 10,000x line bet multiple.
Design and symbols
The slot has a design that incorporates the body of a classic game and places on it the reels of a modern title. The outer area is that of a pub slot, complete with the image of a casino floor, where other similar slots would be located. You have the buttons at the bottom, the arm that you pull on the right side and the game in the middle. Half of the slot’s screen is occupied by the pirate themed logo area, the other half has the five reels surrounded by wood.
Symbols: Pirate Coin (scatter), Treasure Chest (10,000x), Ring (2,500x), Conch Shell (250x), Cannon (250x), Parrot (200x), Sword (200x) and Pirate Flag (100x).
Is It Worth Playing?
It’s not a typical slot machine, but I imagine that’s a plus in this case, as it is not boring at least. It doesn’t have too many features, but its bonus game is fun and interactive, so I’m not holding that against it.
You will find Pirate’s Gold at any online casino which chooses to use software from Net Entertainment, playable either for free or for real money.
