RTG Raises The Bar With Pirate Isle Online Slot

Added: September 18, 2015

Pirate themed online slots will keep coming. The adventure on the high seas easily translates to excitement on the reels. With development of software capabilities and gaming features, pirate themed slots become open to new interpretations. One new pirate themed slot game from Realtime Gaming has just hit online casinos like Club World and Aladdin’s Gold. The first difference that you will notice in Pirate Isle is that the symbols are in 3D graphics. This is probably something new for Realtime Gaming. The slot machine also has an extra bet feature.

The symbols are simply amazing. The captain, the Jolly Roger and the wench are the high paying symbols and start paying from two of a kind. They are followed by the pirate and the victim. The low paying symbols are the customary parrot and monkey and anchor, cannon, ship’s wheel, ale mug and map. Keys of different kinds play an important role in this slot game. The skeleton key, actually made from bone, is a grouped wild on reel 3 in the base game. It also doubles payouts when substituting in winning combinations. Diamond, sapphire, emerald, ruby and gold keys award line payouts when they appear two or more of a kind on active paylines. When a key appears as three of a kind it gets fixed above the reels to play its part in one of the bonus features. With so many symbols awarding line payouts the winning combinations do not occur that frequently but the payouts are substantial. You have to persevere if you want a share of the pirate’s loot.

The treasure chest and the galleon are the scatter symbols. Apart from awarding scatter payouts they trigger the bonus features. The treasure chest takes you to the map of the Pirate Isle where you pick one location. If you reveal a treasure chest then you get a bonus prize and another pick. If the lock on the chest matches with any of the frozen keys then the prize is tripled. If you pick a ghost then you are awarded up to 300 free spins. During the free spins the skeleton key wild symbol appears grouped on reels 2, 3 and 4. The Broadside feature is triggered when you get three galleon symbols with the extra bet activated. You engage with enemy galleons. As you defeat them you move up the prize ladder, winning bonuses that ends in a progressive jackpot. However, if you lose the broadside encounter, the feature ends.
