Head to the high seas with a bunch of swashbuckling pirates in search of treasures with Pirates Quest, the latest exclusive Microgaming title developed by Gong Gaming Technologies.
About Pirates Quest
Played on 5 reels with 25 paylines, it’s available on desktop and mobile devices from 25p up to £125 per spin. The highly volatile slot comes with an average RTP of 96% and a top prize of 2,000x the total bet.The theme is quite popular amongst developers and Gong Gaming has chosen cartoon-style graphics with a bright blue sea forming the backdrop. The reels are occupied with low-value royals, a parrot, pirate’s hat, the captain himself, and a bottle of rum. The treasure chest acts as the wild and the scatter is the gold disc.
Gameplay
As you begin to play various pirate ships can randomly appear on the reels, to the left of the reels is a meter/treasure map, ships appearing on the reels advance along the map, you start with a 1x multiplier which can advance up to 10x.To enter the free spins you’ll need 3 or more scatters landing on a spin, the number of free spins depends on the number of scatters, 5 awards 50 free games. The accumulated multipliers gained from the pirate ships advancing on the map now come into play. After each winning combo, the multiplier is applied.Once the free spins are played the multiplier resets back to 1x. More scatters retrigger the free spins feature where between 10 and 50 more free spins can be won.
Verdict
Pirates Quest is a solid game with a couple of features. The addition of the multiplier map in the base game ties in nicely with the free spins. It’s not the best slot in terms of graphics, design, and features but it’s fun to play and worth a spin or two.
