Captain’s Treasure Pro Slot Machine

Pros

• A top payline jackpot of R2 160 500 is unquestionably generous and compares well with the highest payouts available through other slot games.
• Active paylines, coins bet per line and coin values can all be altered to give players a good range of staking options.
• An innovative wild-cum-scatter symbol introduces substitutions, scatter wins and free spins to gameplay.

Cons

• There is no bonus round or sidegame to make gameplay more interesting and less repetitive.
• The Captain’s Treasure Pro music and pirate ship sound effects get really annoying, really fast but can mercifully be muted.

Top Jackpots

In a slot named Captain’s Treasure Pro it should be no surprise that two of the most welcome sights on the reels are the symbols depicting either the pirate captain or the treasure chest. We’ll get to the treasure chest later but for now it is the captain symbol which we’ll focus on, as it can make up the slot’s most valuable payline combination.

Five of the captain symbols lining up along an active payline, in fact, will deliver players a jackpot worth an impressive 5,000 times their chosen line bet. If the lucky player has chosen to bet the maximum of ten coins worth the maximum of R40 each per line, therefore, their jackpot will be worth a cool R2 160 500.

Game Features

Rather than adding loads of special symbols to introduce additional game features, Captain’s Treasure Pro instead boasts a multi-faceted treasure chest wild-cum-scatter symbol. That one symbol brings wild substitutions, scatter wins and free spins to the slot’s gameplay.

Wild Substitutions

When the treasure chest symbol appears on the reels it can firstly substitute for any other symbol, in order to make up the most valuable possible payline combination. As the symbol can appear on any reel, this can work to produce really big jackpots.

Scatter Wins & Free Spins

If three or more of the treasure chest symbols appear anywhere on the reels at the same time, two different things happen. The first is that instant wins of differing sizes are triggered and the second is that ten free spins are launched.

In those free spins, too, one of the game’s regular symbols is turned into a mystery scatter and so pays for appearing anywhere rather than just along active paylines.

Gamble Feature

Apart from the multi-purpose treasure chest symbol, the only other extra element of the Captain’s Treasure Pro slot is its gamble feature. That feature gives any winning player the chance to risk half or all of their winnings on a simple game of high card.

Regular Symbols

Unless free spins have been triggered, all Captain’s Treasure Pro symbols apart from the treasure chest are normal symbols used to create payline combinations. The symbols all depict images of people or things found on a pirate ship and the most valuable behind the captain symbol is the parrot symbol.

If five of the parrot symbols align on an active payline, the jackpot which the lucky player will receive is worth 2,000 times their chosen bet per line. That payout, then, will be worth between a minimum of R450 and a maximum of R864 000 depending on the line bet.

Betting Limits

In order to cater for high rollers and lower rollers alike, Captain’s Treasure Pro allows players to adjust their stake amount per spin in three ways. Those are by changing the number of active paylines, the number of coins bet per payline and the value of each of those coins.

Anywhere from one to the maximum 20 paylines can be active at any time and anywhere between one and ten coins can be bet per line. Those coins, meanwhile, can be set at a minimum value of 1p, a maximum value of R40 or any number of different value options in between.

What We Think

Whether your name’s Roger or not, there’s certainly enough that’s good about the Captain’s Treasure Pro slot to make you jolly. For starters, the top potential jackpot is worth an outstanding R2 160 500 and payouts below that biggest one still remain impressively generous.

As well as those excellent payouts, too, the slot’s fun theme will please many players and is utilised well in the inclusion of a special treasure chest symbol. That symbol works as a wild and a scatter to introduce extra winning potential and can also trigger potentially very beneficial free spins.

With a good range of staking options also provided, there’s very little you can criticise this slot for. One thing which may disappoint some players, however, is the fact that there isn’t a bonus round or sidegame. The pirate theme could certainly suggest a few different bonus ideas that might have improved gameplay notably.
