Features and Special Characteristics

Pirates Pub offers some interesting special features that make the game more exciting.

• Free Spin Mode
• Sticky Wilds
• Sticky Wilds

Free Spin Mode

The free spins feature is triggered when 3, 4 or 5 wild symbols appear. This awards 5 to 15 free spins. During the free spins, the wild symbols mark their positions on the reels. Each new wild symbol also marks its position. If it is marked several times, the position is upgraded up to five times. After the free spins, the marked positions are filled with Sticky Wilds, which offer up to x5 multipliers.

Sticky Wilds

The Sticky Wilds feature in Pirates Pub appears during the free spins round. If a wild symbol lands during the free spins, it sticks in its position for the duration of the remaining free spins instead of disappearing as usual. This increases the chances of forming winning combinations in consecutive spins. In addition, these sticky wilds can be upgraded and carry multipliers of up to 5x, which increases the winning potential even further.

Sticky Wilds

Players can influence their gaming experience with the Bonus Buy feature. The feature makes it possible to buy the free spins feature directly for 70 times the stake instead of waiting for it to trigger during the regular game.

Please note: If you use this option, the RTP drops slightly to 96%.

Conclusion on Pirates Pub: The Good Features Await in the Bonus Game

Pirates Pub from Pragmatic Play is an entertaining pirate-themed slot with colourful, cartoon-like graphics and a cheerful atmosphere. The game features a traditional 5×3 layout with 9 fixed paylines, which makes it rather simple compared to modern Megaways or Cluster slots. With an RTP of 96.03% and high volatility, the slot is aimed at players who are not afraid to take risks and hope for bigger but rarer wins.

A standout feature is the free spins with sticky wilds, which greatly increase the potential for bigger wins with multipliers of up to 5x. These sticky wilds remain on the reels throughout the free spins round and can be upgraded multiple times, which makes the free spins feature particularly exciting. However, the lack of extensive bonus features in the base game means that the fun comes mainly from the free spins feature, similar to other high volatility slots that rely heavily on bonus rounds.

Compared to other pirate slots such as Dead Man's Gold from Elk Studios or Bone Raiders from Relax Gaming, however, Pirates Pub lacks a little depth and innovation. While games like Dead Man's Gold offer up to 262,144 ways to win and numerous bonus features, Pirates Pub remains relatively simple with 9 paylines and a single main bonus. The maximum win of 5,000x is also lower compared to the 25,000x in other pirate slots.

For players looking for simple slot experiences with a humorous theme, Pirates Pub still offers solid gaming fun. The sticky wild feature in the free spins, in particular, makes the game stand out. However, if you are looking for a more complex and profitable gaming experience, you might find more excitement and winning opportunities in other slots such as Dead Man's Gold or Bone Raiders.
