Pirate lovers rejoice, there is finally a decent looking pirate slot game available from Wager Gaming Technology. Caribbean Gold is an online pirate-themed slot that features skull and crossbones, old worn out card symbols, a pirate with a pistol, chests of jewelry, cannons and more. We were impressed with the look of this slot game so much that we decided to do a full review on it and everything that it has to offer. Keep reading if you would like to learn more about what we discovered from this slot while playing it over our test period.
Plenty of Betting Variation
There are 25 variable paylines in this slot, which means that you have all the options in the world to adjust your total wager amount to something comfortable. If you want to bet really big you can do that by setting all 25 paylines as active and putting a big wager on each of them. If you want to bet low, you can do that by turning off most of the paylines and going with a small wager. It’s possible to wager as much as $10.00 per line, and as little as $0.01 per line. The minimum wager you can make is $0.01 when playing on this slot, and the maximum is $250.00 per spin. That’s a whole lot of variation to work with. We were impressed by how much of a range players have to work with, and are certain that most gamblers will be able to find an amount that works well for them.
Mediocre Payouts
While the looks and betting range of Caribbean Gold are impressive, the jackpot payouts aren’t that compelling. The biggest win that youc an get during the standard rounds of the game is 3,000 coins which is worth a maximum of $30,000 if you are betting as much as you possibly can. That’s not that great of a payout compared to the risk required to bet that big, and the next biggest payout is 1,500 coins or about $15,000 in prize money at the highest. If you do manage to unlock the biggest symbol combination that you can get while playing this slot, you won’t be in for that great of a prize payout in the end, and that can be disappointing.
Playing the Bonus Feature
The logo symbol of this slot serves as the scatter and also as a trigger for the free spin round. Get three or more of these logos and you’ll unlock the special free spin round. The round comes with a total of eight free spins and has a variable multiplier. Hope for the highest multiplier that you can, because this free spin round is where you’ll unlock the biggest prize payouts that you can. The multiplier changes each time you open up the free spin round so that’s one exciting aspect of the game that you have to look forward to. Do your best to get the logo symbols on the reels to trigger the free spin round and you just might end up with some decent prize payouts in the end.
Overall Caribbean Gold doesn’t have that much to offer serious players. It’s a nice looking pirate themed slot, which we love, but the top prize payouts just aren’t that exciting. We enjoy the wide range of betting options that this slot offers, but there isn’t much of a reward for betting big while playing. Even the top wins with a huge wager aren’t worth all that much, and many gamblers will want to switch over to a different slot option after playing a few rounds of this game online. Still, it’s worth trying out for yourself, and you might really enjoy how frequently the smaller payouts come through in this game. We actually did quite well during our tests of this slot, we were just a bit underwhelmed by the maximum jackpot payouts.
