Play Ahoy Matey for Free

Ahoy Matey is, quite obviously, being pirate-themed slot, all about pirates and pirate ships. As such, the game takes place on board of one.

As a player, you will be facing the bow of the ship, overlooking the vastness of the ocean. The waters are calm and the sun is shining bright today, providing a quiet and peaceful gaming atmosphere.

This sense of calm is accentuated by the sound effects playing throughout the game: waves gently crashing against the hull, sea birds singing, the wind softly blowing in the sails. Overall, Ahoy Matey has good graphic qualities and provides a pleasant atmosphere for players. The real excitement only starts when the reels begin to spin, so let’s look at how to make that happen in the next section…

Ahoy Matey is a 5 reel slot with a maximum of 15 paylines running across them.

The settings of the game allow you to personalise your next spin in order to match your play style. Use the Settings menu located in the upper left-hand corner to adjust the amount of your wager and the number of paylines you wish to bet on: the (+) and (-) buttons are there to assist you. Your rewards will be determined by winning combinations of symbols landing on activated paylines; the higher your bet, the greater you potential reward becomes! Keep that in mind while setting up the game, and once you are ready you can simply click on the Spin button to set the reels into motion.

Alternatively, use the Autoplay function to setup a predetermined number of automatic spins with a constant bet. It is the perfect option if you just want to sit back and watch your winnings pile up in from of your eyes, without interruptions! Although playing in automatic mode will rob you of the possibility to use the Gamble feature after a winning spin: choose either a gold or a silver skull in this mini game in order to get a chance to double your wins instantaneously! Tread carefully though, as making a wrong guess will make your latest winnings disappear in an instant.

Ahoy Matey dives even deeper into the pirate them with a paytable entirely inspired by the buccaneers.

With eight basic symbols on the menu, Ahoy Matey offers enough variety to spice up your game and keep you alert at all times. You will find plenty of Ship Wheels, Rum Bottles, Pistols, Skulls and Anchors spinning around, with useful colour schemes to make them even more easily identifiable.

The Pirate Flag, Canon and Hook appear less often on the reels, but in exchange they carry higher rewards! So keep your eyes peeled for them, and the last special symbols of the game.

We still have two last symbols to review here, and unlike the others they bring more than pure cash to the table.

The Captain icon is the Wild card of the game: he can replace any basic symbol as listed previously, and as such landing a few Wilds can help you trigger even more winning combinations! Combinations of Wilds are also the most valuable of the whole game, one more reason to keep an eye out for the Captain!

Lastly, the Treasure Chest is the Scatter symbol in Ahoy Matey. As such, it triggers cash rewards regardless of its position on the reels. More: three or more Scatters appearing anywhere on the screen award some Free Spins. One more chance at winning big without putting anything on the table!

Ahoy Matey is a solid video slot game, with an easy and customisable gameplay for any player to enjoy. On the downside, its overall lack of originality can be a major drawback for some players. Pirate games are quite common, and Ahoy Matey does not bring anything new to the table, but it is still a fun experience – especially for beginner players.
