Play Pirates Bay for Free

If you’re serious about finding the treasure chest, you’ll need to get those reels spinning as quickly as you can – but you’ll need to set up your own betting preferences first. If you’ve played slots before you’ll be familiar with the structure, with the chance adjust the number of paylines play and also decide on your per line bet. If you like to keep your bet super low, you can reduce the number of active lines in play down to the minimum of just one line. However, by shrinking the paylines in play you’ll also be dropping the chances you have to win. An alternative is to leave all 9 paylines in play, and instead alter the stake per line instead. You can begin from just 1 per line and increase this up to 100 per payline. This produces a total min bet of just 9 or for those looking to roll high, a total max bet of 900.

If you’re not sure how much to bet on this slot, take a look at the paytable first for information about the prizes you could win. You’ll be able to navigate here by clicking on the “help” button on the main screen. Moving from one screen to another on the paytable is slightly unusual, as you won’t find any forward or back arrows. Instead, click on the same “help” button again and you’ll flick through the paytable before being deposited back on the main screen.

Although you’ll find plenty of prizes lining up on the main game, it’s the extras which could really persuade you to walk the plank and dive into the waters to fill your pockets. InBet haven’t packed this slot out with bonuses and freebies but there’s still some extras you can enjoy without having to spend more credits.

The ubiquitous wild is present on these reels, stepping in for other symbols to make it easier to get a match. There’s no scatter but keep a close eye on reels 1 and 5; if these fill up with three treasure chest symbols you’ll immediately win 15 free spins. During these free spins, reels 1 and 5 will remain locked in position with the treasure chest symbols acting as the wild in this phase too. This gives you a great chance at winning more prizes or maybe even a line of five. And a line of five can really reel in the big cash; on the main game a full set of five buccaneers holding a musket will win you the top payout of 5000 per line.

Bearing in mind that pirates hanker after treasure, it’s perhaps not altogether surprising that the buccaneer theme is a popular one in the world of slots. If you like your games to feature parrots, the Jolly Roger and plenty of swashbuckling you’ll find an infinite amount of choice ahead of you. And there’s a selection of styles too with everything from the photorealism of titles such as Barbary Coast from Betsoft with its 3D graphics to the quirky fun appeal of Ice Pirates from Endorphina. The latter is fairly closely matched to Pirates Bay with just 10 paylines on 5 reels, but it does offer more features such as multipliers and a bonus round as well as wilds and free spins.

With Pirates Bay from InBet Games, there are plenty of reasons to pull up the anchor and head out to sea in a slot that’s relatively straightforward and easy to play, with a medium to high volatility rate. In fact, some players may find this rather too simplistic as there’s no bonus round, no scatters and no multipliers either. Although there’s a jackpot payout, overall this game is more likely to suit those who are just starting to play than experienced and advanced players.
