Blackbeard's Bounty Introduction
Ahoy there, matey! Batten down the hatches, weigh the anchor and hoist the mizzen, because it’s time to set sail on a voyage in search of the legendary Blackbeard’s Bounty. Untold riches lie in store, but who knows what creatures and obstacles you’ll have to face in the open ocean?
This enthralling video pokie from Habanero features expanding wilds, a gamble bonus mini-game and scattered Jolly Rogers, and promises fun and adventure, as well as plenty of chances to win big!
Theme
A seedy pirate port town is the background against which the action takes place. The reels look distinctly sea-based, surrounded by a border of small stones with the line numbers shown on two planks of driftwood. The symbols all feature items that any good pirate needs, such as a flintlock pistol and an anchor. Winning symbols come to life with animations, making for a very engaging and immersive gaming experience.
Orchestral musical interludes congratulate you on every winning spin, and you’ll notice little touches such as Blackbeard’s parrot fluttering around the reels when the expanding pirate wild appears.
Set-up
Blackbeard’s Bounty features 25 paylines across five reels. Active lines can be changed from 1, 3, 10, 15, 20, or 25, and coin values can be changed from a tiny 0.01, all the way up to 20, so high-rollers and casual gamers will both find something to enjoy. This pokie offers you five bet levels to choose from, and if you max out all of the settings, you’ll be betting a whopping 5,000 credits per spin!
As usual, you can use the autospin feature if you’d rather sit back and watch the action.
Swashbuckling symbols
A pirate-themed pokie wouldn’t be complete without symbols featuring parrots, cannons, desert islands and treasure maps, and Blackbeard’s Bounty doesn’t disappoint. Line up matching symbols to create wins. Five cannons or pistols pay out 80x your bet per line, while five parrots are worth a handsome 100x your stake.
Head to the treasure-related symbols for higher payouts - five treasure maps multiply your bet per line 1000x, but the treasure chest itself nets you a stunning 10,000x your line stake! The gamble feature sees you going head to head with the dealer in a high-stakes showdown of double-or-nothing.
Can you pick a card from the pack with a higher value than the dealer’s card? If so, you’ll double your winnings - but guess carefully, or you might lose everything.
Expanding Blackbeard wilds
The wild in this pokie is the pirate captain, who appears at random and expands to fill the whole reel. He substitutes for all other regular symbols to help you make more winning combos. The Jolly Roger flag is the scatter; land three or more anywhere on the reels to trigger one of three amazing bonus features.
Bonus features
The first feature is an instant bet multiplier. A cash prize worth 25x your total bet will be awarded instantly. Secondly comes the Free Spins bonus - 10 free spins are awarded, which are played with the same bet level and line amount as the winning spin that unlocked the feature, giving you plenty of chances to win big. Lastly is the Island Pick feature, where you’ll have to pick one of six locations to uncover the hidden treasure.
