Description:
A 5 reel, 25 payline video slot game dedicated to the exciting
era of world exploration by sea around the 15th to 17th centuries.
A time of Ship's Captains hunting for treasure and discovering
new lands and all that came with it such as new foods, which we
see portrayed in the symbols by various exotic fruits. New trade
roots would be established and these fruits including Bananas,
Mangoes and Avocados could be taken back to European countries.
The jackpot is a pretty average 6000 coins but
as you can see below there's a good chance to win big in the finding
treasure bonus game.
The sound effects are great and are as if you
are on a ship at sea, you can hear gentle waves and the sound
of a creaking mast.
This game was released on 30th August 2006.
Wild Symbol:
The Gold Coin symbol is a wild symbol and substitutes any other
symbol combinations, except the Bonus Treasure Compass or Scatter
Sea Monster symbols.
Scatter Symbol:
If you get 2 or more of the Sea Monster symbols anywhere on the
5 reels you win.
Bonus Gamble Game:
When you get 3, 4 or 5 Bonus Treasure compass symbols scattered
anywhere on the reels the bonus game is triggered. During the
bonus game you choose where X marks the spot for treasure on a
map and try to reveal hidden treasure and its value. You can keep
choosing points and you treasure winnings are totalled up and
shown in the open gold compass until you come across a skull and
cross bones and that stops you from being able to select any more
locations. You will then be awarded an extra bonus
amount and then you will see what your total winnins during the
bonus game where.
As you can see from the screenshot below you can
really pick up some big wins from the bonus game alone. There's
an excellent ratio of treasure locations to the skull and cross
bones.
