Playtech have truly got into the pirate spirit with their swashbuckling slot game; Fortunate 5. Set on a pirate ship, this game is filled with fun and opportunities to uncover some buried treasure in the form of bonuses and high cash prizes. There are even five different jackpots waiting to be won.

Theme

The story of the game revolves around the adventures of five swaggering pirates; Captain Red Beard, Peg Leg Davis, Starboard Mary, Monsieur Poisson, and Mad Dog McDougal. As well as being the main characters of Fortunate 5, they also act as symbols on the reels and each brings their unique character to the game. The reels are set on the wooden decking of a sailing ship, with authentic touches like barrels of rum and treasure chests dotted around the screen.

How to Play

Fortunate 5 is a five reel game with 15 pay lines and an extra three symbol lanes. To play this game, first set the amount of coins and the value you wish to play with- this can be any amount between 2p and 40p. Once you have determined your coin values and amount of pay lines you’ll be ready to go. Bets are playable from 60p up to £6 per spin.

Bonuses and Extras

The iconic skull and crossed swords symbol acts as a scatter in Fortunate 5. If you are lucky enough to find three or more scatters on the reels at one time then you will automatically trigger the Wild Waters bonus game which provides opportunities to get your hands on some free spins and multipliers.
