How To Play The Golden Sail Slot

The slot has just six bet sizes you can choose from: 0.40, 0.80, 2.00, 8.00, 20.00 and 40.00. You’ll see the current one displayed in the bottom left-hand corner of the screen. If you’d like to change it, simply click on it then select a different bet size.

The button with the letter A surrounded by two arrows turns on autoplay, which lets you choose a number of spins, as well as loss and single win limits. The large yellow button on the right spins the reels once. Next to this is a small button that, when turned on, makes the reels spin faster than normal.

The Golden Sail Slot Features

• Pirate Theme. The slot’s gaming grid is set on the back of a pirate ship that’s heading towards an island and gently sways from side to side in the breeze. The action takes place at night and the soundtrack adds to the immersion with its gentle sounds of lapping waves and noises of the ship creaking as it sways. When you spin the reels and play, the soundtrack is replaced by dramatic music that fits the pirate theme very well indeed. The slot’s design is of a good standard and the ship is presented with plenty of detail.
• 40 Paylines. The slot uses a grid with four rows and five reels, and has a total of forty paylines that winning combinations can be formed on. As usual, you win by having three or more matching symbols land on a payline. So long as these symbols are on adjacent reels and start on the far left reel, you’ll get paid.
• Symbols. Ten regular symbols populate the slot’s reels. These include A, K, Q, J, 10 and 9, along with four themed symbols: a treasure map, a barrel of rum, a compass and a treasure chest. The most rewarding of these is, of course, the treasure chest, which pays 10x your total bet for five on a payline.
• Bonus Symbols. There are two bonus symbols: the wild and the scatter. The wild is represented as a bomb and as well as filling in for all regular symbols, it offers the top payout of 12.5x your bet for landing five on a payline. The other scatter is a wheel made up of dollar sign segments.

The Golden Sail Bonus Features

• Big Wheel Bonus. This feature gets triggered if three scatters land on the slot’s reels. You get to spin a wheel to win one of four prizes:

1. Instant Win: an immediate win of 50x your bet.
2. Free Spins: a free spins round that starts with ten spins and has a multiplier that starts at x1 and increases by x1 on every spin.
3. The Trail Bonus: a mini-game where you pick coins to move up a trail and earn bigger payouts of up to 10,000x your stake (up to 250x your total bet).
4. Pick Me Bonus: select one of the treasure chests to win a prize worth up to 5,000x the amount staked on each payline, or 125x your bet.

• Buy Feature. If you’d like to buy the Big Wheel Bonus feature, click on the ‘BUY FEATURE’ button. Then, select a bet size per spin and pay 85x this amount; on your next spin, the Big Wheel Bonus feature will be guaranteed to trigger.
