Monkey Pirates

Monkey Pirates Slot

Designed by GameArt, Monkey Pirates is a brand new slot featuring walking wilds, bonus rounds, gamble features and much more. There are 5 reels and 4 rows, with 100 pay lines for the player to win on. The bet is payed per two lines, giving the player more of a chance of winning with a smaller bet. The base game is played in the hull of a ship, with swinging lanterns lighting up the dim ground, showing wheels and barrels, as well as chests of gold, something the player can one day hope to win!

With ropes hanging down and octopus legs creeping in, the reels turn bright red for free spins. The Bonus Round, mentioned later, is played on a stunning map, feature plenty of islands and intrepid waters for the player to investigate.

Bet Strategy and Symbols

The betting range for this slot is from 50p, 1p per two lines, up to £250, £5 per pair of lines. This broad range allows anyone to play, regardless of their budget for the slot. The lower value symbols include the card royals A, K, Q, J and 10, all beautifully crafted and surrounded with gold. The middle value symbols are the letter enclosed in an emerald bottle, the purple compass and the blue and gold guns crossed across one another. The highest paying symbols are the two characters symbols, the baboon captain, complete with captain’s hat and hook, and the monkey crew mate, seen holding a banana.

The wild is played out by the Lady Pirate Monkey herself, substituting for all symbols bar the scatter. Dressed in purple and encompassed with gold, she can also appear on the reels when the Walking Wilds feature is triggered, explained below. Finally there is also the scatter, which features another captain, this time an orangutan captain, with hat and eye patch to finish the look. He can appear on all reels and will trigger the bonus feature.

Bonus Features

The main bonus feature is the Bonus Round, triggered when 3 or more of the scatters appear on the reels. You will be shown a new graphic where there will be 19 islands for you to choose from. Depending on the number of scatters triggering the feature, you will be awarded either 4, 5 or 6 island picks. During this round you may win a number of free spins, additional spin, 2 to 4 wild reels, coin prizes and multipliers. The only down side to the feature is that it cannot be triggered during the Walking Wilds feature, discussed next. The Walking Wilds feature is triggered when a wild appears on reels 2, 3, 4 or 5.

It will become locked in place on the row, moving left one reel each free respin. If another wild lands on the reels during this feature, it too will take the same action as the first, moving across each spin. The feature will end when the final wild reaches the first reel. This feature can only be triggered during the base game. There is a gamble feature which allows the player to select whether the card will be red or black. If the player is correct, then their winnings will be doubled, however if they are incorrect, they will lose all the money they have amassed during the gamble feature, as well as their initial win from the base game.
