Game Overview

Let’s be honest here; if Captain Blackbeard and his like were still around today, they would not be happy about how their humble art of piracy on the high seas has been turned into a joke in modern times. I realise there are still dangerous pirates in the water around Africa, of course, but as far as popular culture is concerned, pirates are nothing less than a meme in 2022. GONG Gaming Developments obviously recognises this fact, too – keep the sound on whilst playing their Pirate’s Quest online slot, and you will begin to hear all kinds of rambling sentences about being unable to read the map needing more rum, or trying to keep scurvy at bay. As far as the vitals go, there are 25 fixed pay lines, an RTP of 96%, and a maximum win of 2,000x your stake.

The backdrop during the base game is a little bland, but the graphics and presentation are otherwise top-notch. Three or more scatters will trigger the main free spins bonus round, which can also be boosted by a multiplier if you collect enough ships in the base game between features. Ten different vessels are shown on the paytable, but these seem to be just for decoration as they all appear to act identically.

Fans of GONG Gaming or pirate-themed slots will no doubt be eager for some swashbuckling adventure, so please don’t let it hold you up – our free demo slot of Pirate’s Quest is available below.

Pirate’s Quest Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols

Paytable For Pirate's Quest Slot

Yo ho ho, eh? Or is that Santa Claus? Ah, yes. Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum! Now we are in pirate mode! And getting into pirate mode is always fun, whether playing online slots or going to a fancy dress party… as long as you aren’t on your private yacht off the coast of Somalia, in which case all bets are off. Pirates have had something of a resurgence in popular culture ever since the first Pirates of the Caribbean film, and there have been dozens – if not more – of successful online slots released over the past two decades to satisfy people’s taste for childish humour combined with big wins. Either of those two things on their own is fantastic, but if you put them together? It doesn’t get much better than that!

Slots players are a picky bunch. However, good humour and an awesome presentation might get people interested, but they won’t stick around unless you throw piles of cash at them as well. Some people, eh? Top of the paytable is the wild symbol which substitutes for everything apart from scatters and ships. It also pays out a chunky 200x your bet for a complete five-of-a-kind pay line – nice. A giant but not so terrifying-looking pirate takes the second-place spot with a return of 40x for all five, followed by his parrot sidekick or the cannon, both at 14x and the hat or bottle of rum, which both pay 10x your stake for five-of-a-kind.

You can opt to play from a minimum of a penny per line, or €0.25 in cash terms, up to a maximum of €125.00 per spin. So, plenty of options are available for players of all-sized budgets.

Base Game & Modifiers

Play With 5 Reels, 25 Paylines, And Win Up Tp 5,000x Your Bet In Pirate's Quest Online Slot From Provider Gong Gaming

Pirate’s Quest online slot uses a standard 5×3 playfield with 25 fixed pay lines. You’ll need to hit at least three matching symbols from left to right to score some winnings, with the biggest prizes only being available with a multiplier during free spins. There aren’t any real base game modifiers or features, but I have included the map feature here as it does sit outside the bonus round even though it has no effect until you hit the free spins.

Map Feature

Any ships landing during the base game will move your boat towards the distance on the map shown to the left of the main reel set. Once you make it to the end of the map, the ship will move back to its starting position, and your free spins multiplier will increase by 1x.

The higher your multiplier becomes, the more steps are required to progress toward the end of the map and thus increase your multiplier again. This is something of a double-edged sword – you want a bonus round, but you also want to wait until you have a decent-sized multiplier before you hit it!

Note that any ships that appear also have the “free spins” symbol underneath them, so if you already have two scatters in view plus at least one ship, you are guaranteed to trigger the feature.

Pirate’s Quest Slot Cash Respins Feature

3 Or More Scatters Will Trigger The Free Spins Feature On Pirate's Quest Video Slot

Hit three or more scatter symbols during the base game, and you will trigger the main free spins bonus round. You will always receive ten free spins to start with, regardless of how many triggering scatter symbols you hit, but you can win additional free spins whilst the bonus is in play. The number of additional spins given is as follows:

One Scatter – 2 Free Spins Two Scatters – 5 Free Spins Three Scatters – 10 Free Spins Four Scatters – 20 Free Spins Five Scatters – 50 Free Spins

During the bonus round, all winnings are multiplied by the number you have reached on the map during the base game. Unfortunately, ships do not appear during free spins, and your multiplier is reset at the end of each feature.

Pirate’s Quest Slot Review Final Thoughts

Pirate’s Quest is a fun little game that is only held back by the slightly lower than average maximum win of 2,000x your bet. It’s still an enjoyable slot that I have no problems recommending, but I would score the game higher if it were just a tad more generous with its jackpot prize.
