Treasure Hunt: Will You Join the Search for Riches?
James rated this game:
3 out of 5
The pirate theme is a fun one and I always enjoy playing pirate-themed slots. I was looking forward to playing Treasure Hunt, and while it’s not the most innovative or well-presented slot, it’s still good enough.
You’re on a desert island with a pirate ship sailing across the sea in the distance. Spinning the reels can earn you regular symbol payouts and scatter wins, along with triggers of the two main features.
First, there’s the Surrounding Wilds feature that triggers whenever the pirate boat lands. The boat and all adjacent symbols turn wild and this happened a few times while I played. When it triggered for the first time, I scored a large win of over 70x my bet, which I was really pleased with.
I also managed to land enough scatters to play the free spins round. It was good enough, especially since the reels have better-paying symbols overall. I made a decent win from the free spins round, though it wasn’t anything major.
There isn’t a soundtrack during the base game, which isn’t the best. However, you do get to hear one during the free spins round, and it matches the pirate theme perfectly. There’s even a parrot who squawks ‘All hands on deck!’ and other phrases, which adds a nice touch.
I had a few reasonable wins during my gaming session and managed to see the special features in action, so I’ve had a full preview of the slot.
All in all, Treasure Hunt is a perfectly good slot that’s worth a shot. You’ll enjoy it if you’re into pirates, that’s for sure. Just don’t expect there to be lots going on - this slot is quite straightforward, though many prefer simpler games.
