Most of what I won on Pirate Gold came out of two free spins rounds, 61% of the total, and the second one retriggered to 20 spins and paid 262 times the stake. Before it landed, the balance had sunk to 68,865 credits from a 100,000 start.
Pirate Gold is a 5 reel, 4 row slot laid out across 40 paylines, and in all honesty, waiting for the bonus to activate in Pirate Gold is not an especially lively pastime. Line wins pay left to right on adjacent reels, starting from reel 1. The bonus is a different matter entirely, however. Over 470 spins at 200.00 a spin I wagered 94,000.00 and took the balance from 100,000.00 to 110,405.00, a session return of 111.1%.
There's truly not terribly much going on in the base game. Only 94 spins paid anything, and 49 of those returned less than the stake. Essentially, I'm merely waiting for the bonus to land. The longest dry run lasted 22 spins and ended on spin 117, one spin before my first free spins round.
There is also a feature named Lucky Treasure Bag, which 8 or more Money symbols can activate, and I should have been braced for near misses however. The triggering Money symbols stick in place for 3 respins, each new one resets the count to 3, and on spin 9 the feature paid me 15,800.00, or 79.0x the stake.
Land three scatters to activate the bonus game, and the number of free spins granted is 10. My first round came on spin 118, ran its 10 free spins without a retrigger and paid 11,200.00, or 56.0x the stake. On in, the Male and Female Pirates become wild on reels 2 to 5 for the rest of the round, and three scatters will furthermore grant ten additional spins. The second round arrived 273 spins later on spin 391, where one retrigger made it 20 free spins and it paid 52,400.00, or 262.0x the stake, lifting the balance from its session low of 68,865.00 to a peak of 121,225.00.
Minty’s Final Note: Highly volatile, its all about the free spins in this slot.
