Treasure-snipes Bonus Buy Slot by Evoplay

Three bonus symbols walk onto a pirate ship and 6+ of them trigger a Hold and Win round with a twist. The first four reels play like a standard respin game - bonus symbols stick, each carrying a random money value between 1x and 15x total bet, and the spin counter resets to 3 every time a new one lands. But the fifth reel sits dormant during all of this, locked behind a collection wall.

Fill all 12 positions across reels 1-4 and that fifth reel transforms into the Grand Reel. One spin of it drops a prize onto everything else: a flat money value (20x-50x), one of four fixed jackpots (MINI at 75x, MEGA at 150x, SUPER at 500x, or GRAND at 4,000x), or a multiplier between x2 and x5 that applies to every single bonus symbol on the grid. The GRAND jackpot lives exclusively on this reel - there's no other path to it.

Free spins strip the reels down to just four symbol types: Wilds, Scatters, Bonus symbols, and the high-paying pirate characters. The third reel gets even more aggressive, showing only Wilds, Scatters, and Bonus symbols. This compression makes both bonus triggers and line wins significantly more frequent during the feature. Landing 3+ Scatters retriggers another 8 spins, and if the Bonus Game fires during free spins, it plays out first before returning.

Two buy options skip the base game entirely: 32x for 8 Free Spins or 28x for the Bonus Game. The Bonus Game purchase is cheaper because it skips the free spin symbol compression, going straight to the respin collection round.
