Quickspin launches a unique new pirate-themed slot

As one of the tougher nuts to crack, the pirate-themed slot market requires developers to come up with something genuinely inventive if they wish to get their new game out there and for it to appeal to slot lovers. There are already so many slots in this genre which are available to play. Admittedly, most of them are samey and boring, so Quickspin will have their work cut out for them if they wish their new Pirates Charm slot to do well.

About the slot

This new 5-reel, 243-line slot machine officially makes its debut in the online casino world on Tuesday (May 8). To ensure that the game stands out from its rivals (and there are many), the casino software providers have chosen to focus less on the traditional pirate-theme, and more on features. That may or may not have the desired effect.

Bonus features

The whole premise of the game revolves around a Mystery Charm symbol. This symbol, when it appears, will transform itself into any other symbol. Acting mainly like a wild – although it is less advantageous since it can only turn into one symbol at random, not any symbol – it shows up randomly whenever it feels like. If the symbol appears 3 times on the first, second and third reels, a re-spin bonus begins.

In that feature, re-spins will continue to be offered if symbols keep popping up which match the Mystery Charm icons (whatever they have turned into). This feature is quite like the cluster-style feature in Jack Hammer and other slots.

A free spin bonus is also playable in the game, though and it can promise 20 free spins with locked Mystery Charm icons, with further charm symbols delivering additional spins.

It may not be conventional, but it could still be sensational. Find out for yourself when Pirates Charm launches on Tuesday.
