Set Sail for Big Time Gaming’s Latest Pirate Pays Megaways

It’s time to set sail and embark on a maritime adventure with the new launch from Big Time Gaming. Titled Pirate Pays Megaways, the game is ready to deliver a spectacular playing experience, coupled with the chance to unearth hidden pirate treasures.

The Caribbean awaits players, with six plus one reel set against a blue sea, sunlit skies and island-filled environment. Although the entire scenery may not appear fitting for a pirate-themed adventure, the overall view promises an exciting and joyous journey.

Basic Info

The slot utilizes a six-reel layout, with up to seven symbols appearing on each reel. On the other hand, four icons will be able to land on the game’s additional horizontal reel. The number of ways to win ranges from 324 to a staggering 117,649. The Big Time Gaming release comes with an RTP of 96.23% and high volatility. Playable across all platforms, Pirate Pays Megaways accepts bets starting as low as $0.20 and going up to $20 per spin. That’s not a wide range of choices for slot enthusiasts, but keep in mind this title has a massive win potential.

The symbols populating the reels match the game’s theme. You’ll encounter the usual set of playing cards, jewels decorated with gold wheels, swords, anchors, and Krakens. Landing six matching high-paying symbols will award a payout ranging from 0.7 to 25 times the triggering bet.

Pirate Pays Megaways was released exclusively on Unibet on October 13, before rolling out on the Relax Platform on October 27.

Slot Features

The game doesn’t offer anything new in terms of features, but that doesn’t mean you won’t have a good time enjoying them.

Whenever a winning combination is formed, the reaction mechanic comes into play. All winning symbols are removed from the reels, with new ones filling the empty positions. This can lead to new wins, repeating the process we’ve just described.

When appearing on the reels, the Wild compass symbols will spin the needle, with all positions in the needle direction turning into Wild bird icons. Wilds can replace all regular paying symbols.

Players can benefit from two types of Scatters, regular gold chest and purple chest Megascatters. The former lands on reels 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, while the latter can appear only on reel 6. Three or more regular Scatters trigger the Kraken bonus round. Two regular Scatter plus a purple chest Scatter will unlock the Enhanced Bonus round.

The pre-bonus round resembles Deal or No Deal. The Kraken bonus offers twenty different prizes, with each removed when you get more than three Scatters. Canon can remove up to five outcomes. In the end, the Krane will give players a free spins offer, which they can accept or reject. If they don’t accept it, canons will continue to remove outcomes until players take the offer.

The same process applies to the Enhanced Bonus round. The only difference is that only ten outcomes are initially removed from the list.

During free spins, the win multiplier goes up by one after every reaction. The Megascatter won’t appear in the bonus round, while regular scatters award additional spins when three or more land anywhere on the reels.
