Pirate Pays Megaways Slot by Big Time Gaming

Every Wild Compass that lands points somewhere. North, south, east or west, and the second it reveals its direction it turns every symbol that way into a Bird Wild before the win is worked out. A compass pointing south from the bottom row does nothing, no symbols below it to convert, while one pointing north from low on the reels can flip a whole stretch of the grid wild. The Bird Wild is a Full Reel Wild that covers everything except the compasses themselves and the Scatters.

The reels sit against the carved golden stern of a galleon, lantern-lit windows and gilded scrollwork, riding a bright turquoise sea past rocky islets. It's a genuine 6-reel Megaways board running up to 117,649 ways, with a horizontal Extra Reel that bolts an extra symbol onto reels 2 through 5. Every win clears out, new symbols drop from above on the reels and slide in from the right along the Extra Reel, and the reactions keep chaining while wins land. Paying symbols are jewelled treasures, a purple gem on top, then a red gem, a blue anchor gem and a green one.

Three or more Gold Chest Scatters open the Kraken Bonus, and there's no fixed spin award waiting. Twenty free-spin outcomes are laid out. One gets struck off for every triggering Scatter past the third, then Cannons blast away up to five more at random, and you pick one of whatever survives. Each outcome bundles 6 to 25 spins, a starting win multiplier from x1 to x10 and a cash prize on top, and the spins begin at that multiplier. Then the Megascatter wrinkle: the Gold Chest lands on reels 1 to 5, but reel 6 has its own Purple Chest Megascatter, and fold one of those into the trigger and the whole Kraken Bonus upgrades to its enhanced form. Inside the spins, Gold Chest Scatters drop into the Extra Reel and retrigger, three for 5 more spins, four for 10. Skip the hunt if you like and buy the feature outright, with any Feature Drop symbols on the reels shaving the price down.
