Pirate Bonanza Slot Review
Another Hacksaw Gaming partner Backseat Gaming has ventured into the pirate theme, presenting their new slot, Pirate Bonanza. Now, you might be someone who's grown tired of pirate-themed slots, but I'm here to tell you that this one's got some awesome surprises. The highlight is, of course, the visuals, that makes you feel like you're on a swashbuckling adventure hunting for treasure at sea. Add to that the unique Cannon feature, which brings unexpectedly rewarding multipliers to the table. Not bad, right?
Pirate Bonanza Info
So, let's start with the mechanics. Wins are only paid when 8 or more matching symbols appear anywhere on the grid. To accommodate this, the game field has been expanded to 6 reels and 5 rows. The maximum RTP sits at a solid 96.31%, with volatility ramping up to high levels. Betting ranges from €0.1 to €100 per game round, and if you're feeling lucky, you can activate the BonusHunt feature for x3 your bet to up your chances of winning.

As always, we recommend starting with the demo mode to try the slot for yourself and decide whether it’s worth your investment.
Pirate Bonanza Bonus Feature
It's worth mentioning that every win triggers cascades, which not only remove the winning symbols but also leave highlighted frames in their place. At the end of a spin, if there are no more wins and a Cannon symbol is present, it will replace all frames with Multiplier Bombs. These Multiplier Bombs then reveal their values, accumulate and apply to a global multiplier. There are four types of bombs:
- Low Value Bomb – additive, with values of x2, x3, x4 or x5.
- Medium Value Bomb – additive, with values of x10, x15, x20 or x25.
- High Value Bomb – additive, with values of x50, x75 or x100.
- Golden Multiplier Bomb – multiplicative, with values of x2, x3, x5 or x10.
Landing 4 Scatters guarantees the activation of 10 free spins in the Load the Cannons feature, which offers an increased chance of triggering the Cannon bonus. Landing 5 Scatters, however, triggers the Fire At Will feature, also with 10 free spins, but in this version, the highlighted frames remain throughout the entire feature. For both modes, landing 3 Scatters during free spins awards 5 additional spins.
All bonuses can be purchased directly through the Bonus Purchase feature for a fixed cost.
Pirate Bonanza Verdict
On paper, Pirate Bonanza sounds pretty impressive - highlighted frames, a barrage of multipliers and thrilling potential. But let's be honest, everything hinges on the Cannon bonus, which determines whether your wins will get that extra rewarding boost or not. In fact, it's the core feature that defines this slot.
The Cannon symbol isn't a guaranteed to appea, and you'll need to put in a bit of effort to land it. But rest assured, it's absolutely worth the chase. With a maximum win of x10,000 your bet, the slot strikes a fine balance between risk and reward, making it a worthy choice for anyone looking for a high-stakes adventure. So, if you're ready to test your luck on the high seas, Pirate Bonanza might just be the treasure you're searching for!
