Pirate Gold Deluxe Slot – Free Demo

Five hundred spins on forty fixed lines

Pirate Gold Deluxe has been on the market ever since the launch back in 2020. I ran 500 spins through it at an 18.00 stake, 9,000.00 wagered against 6,150.60 returned, and the balance went from 100,000.00 to 97,150.60.

The game uses a rather typical 5x4, 40 payline arrangement, taking its cues from many other online slots at the moment of its launch. Of my 500 spins, 97 paid something, and 30 of those paid less than the 18.00 stake. The paylines are fixed and pay from the leftmost reel. A respin win is added to the payline win rather than paid instead of it, so a triggering spin settles both. It arrives with a set of Minor, Major and Grand jackpots carried by the Money Symbols. My peak came early, 100,723.60 on spin 8, and that is as high as the balance got.

Eight Money Symbols, or 1,800 credits

The wild is depicted by the treasure chest, and it appears on reels 2 to 5. Reel one carries no wild, so every line win has to start with a real symbol. This one can substitute for every other symbol except the Money Symbols in winning combinations. My longest stretch with no win at all was 28 spins, ending on spin 127.

To be able to trigger the game's only feature though, the Lucky Treasure Bag feature, eight or more Money Symbols have to land on a single spin. Eight is also the floor on a purchase: the rules price Buy Money Respin at 100x the total bet, and a frame I captured at an 18.00 stake put the banner at 1,800 credits. The round starts with 3 respins. What the buy guarantees is the trigger and its opening symbols — the rules say anywhere from 8 to 19 Money Symbols can hit, with random values, and the round still opens on those same three respins. During this round every Money Symbol landing restores the meter back to 3 respins, so the grid fills. Everything that hits stays on screen until the round is over, so the grid only ever gets fuller. The round only concludes when the respins run out or when all 20 positions are taken. The splash that opens the round, in the frame I caught, reads three respins left.

Where the 2,311.20 came from

Multiplier Symbols will appear during the respin round. Two extra Money Symbol versions can hit as well: one takes the total of the symbols that triggered the round, the other the total of everything on the screen when it lands. This means that whenever one lands, its 2x, 3x or 5x value is added to a total multiplier for the round; these apply to the total of all the Money Symbol values. Eleven of these rounds came up in my 500 spins and they paid 2,311.20 between them, 38% of the session's return. A Retrigger Symbol landing awards another round from the same initial grid. Three of my eleven retriggered — spin 4, spin 333 and spin 490 — paying 702.00, 43.20 and 75.60. Filling all 20 positions ends the round, and awards the Grand jackpot. The fullest grid I captured had nineteen of the twenty positions taken and one square still empty.

1 / 2

The Minty Summary: Eleven Lucky Treasure Bag rounds carried 2,311.20 of the 6,150.60 my 500 spins returned, so 38% of the money came back through a round that needs eight Money Symbols to open — or 1,800 credits at the stake I was playing. Wolf Gold collects money symbols over a smaller board and pays its top jackpot for filling it; this board is twenty squares, and the fullest one I captured stopped at nineteen.

The engine is older than the deluxe

While it is one of the developer's older slots, the respin round it runs is the same one Pragmatic Play built into Pirate Gold.
