The game has 5 reels, 3 rows and from 20 to 30 fixed pay-lines. Before unlocking the central feature – the Wild Island Row, you will be playing with 20 pay-lines. After triggering it, you will have the lines from 21 to 30 active and play with the full number of 30 pay-lines. You win when you form a paying combination with 2 or 3 to 5 symbols from left to right.
You will be joining Captain Blackbeard on a marine adventure to unlock the Wild Island Row. During your voyage, a monkey will appear randomly to steal the low-paying symbols. It will be leaving only high-paying ones on its way. Playing the Battle Spins can give you up to 5,500 times your stake wins. You can adjust your stake from 0.10 to £20 per spin. Keep in mind that changing your bet will lead to losing your progress to unlocking the Wild Island Row.
The game takes you into the captain’s quarters which is used for the setting with a cannon weapon on the left. There are gold coins scattered under the grid and below the cannon, piled in a container. Over the 5 reels, you will see a map with a ship showing your advancement to the Wild Island Row. On the grid, you will see bottles with poison, the captain’s hat, canons, muskets, maps, pirate skulls. Here are also the four card suits styled on gold coins.
Around the playing window, there are swords, cannons, gold, and loot of various kind. The background of the reels is semi-transparent and show a spectacular view of the sea, clouds, and the sky. The graphics and animations are detailed, clear, and picturesque. The musical tunes and sounds are adventurous and merge into the action. The game is with high volatility and has an RTP of 96.07%.
The symbols on the window include high-paying ones – 5 theme-specific. There are 4 card suits which are the low-value ones, a scatter – the Battle Spins bonus symbol and a wild. The pirate skull is the top-paying and the only one that pays you when landing two symbols of it. You can win from 0.3 to 20 times your stake when you land from 2 to 5 symbols of the pirate skull. The captain’s hat is next in value paying up to 6 times your stake for landing 5 of a kind on a pay-line.
The cannon gives you 5 times your stake for 5 on a win-line from left to right. There are muskets which return 4 times your stake when you hit 5 on a combination. The bottle with poison gives 3 times your stake for 5 symbols on a win-line. The low-paying symbols are the 4 card suits styled on golden coins. The green spade is the best-paying among them -1.5 times your stake for 5 on a pay-line. Next in value comes the blue heart, then the black diamond, and last is the red club.
A random feature during the base game is the Wild Monkey with a multiplier that can appear on the reels. When that happens, the monkey will start stealing all low-paying symbols one by one. It will replace them with high-value ones only. It will remain in the place where the last symbol was removed. Then, the multiplier value will be applied. When you change your stake value you lose your progress on the Wild Island Row and start from the beginning. You mustn’t forget that.
To get the most of the wild features you need to collect 50 Map Symbols. Your progress you can see on the upper side of the window. Once you gather 50 map symbols you will unlock the Wild Island Row. As a result, you will be playing with 10 more pay-line – 30 in total. Also, there will be extra wilds added to the game which can bring win multipliers with a value of 2x, 3x, 4x, and 5x.
If these wild symbols appear on a pay-line, they will add up together. This means that they will be multiplied by one another. Once you activate the Wild Island Row, it will remain active for the rest of the spins in the game using the same stake. If you change the stake you will start it over again.
If you land 3 Battle Spins bonus symbols with a single spin anywhere on the reels, you will win the Battle Spins game. You receive a random number of free spins. These you will play with sticky wilds locked on their positions for the rest of the feature. If you play the Battle Spins game with unlocked Wild Island Row, you have a chance of getting sticky multiplier wilds. In such case also the wilds may land on the grid without needing to be triggered.
When a Fire! Symbol appears on the reels, one or more cannonballs will be fired. They will land on the window turning either into wilds or striking an enemy ship. The latter will give you 1 extra free spin. You may see even Captain Blackbeard on the window and if you do, he will give you backup. His help will be throwing wild bombs on the reels which will also turn sticky.
The sequel of Pirates’ Plenty the Sunken Treasure is fast-paced and full of features. It is still very similar to the first part. The symbols are almost the same, the graphics are very identical. The features with the map collecting and the monkey stealing low-paying symbols are active in both games. If you like the first video slot, you will be more than happy with the sequel. Those of you who are into the piratic theme can try Ships Bounty and Buccaneer Blast. These slots which deserve your attention. Pirates’ Plenty 2: Battle for Gold has superb features, gameplay, and graphics. We strongly recommend it.
