Wild Seas

Choppy waters, thunderstorm, a pirate ship, blazing guns and tanks, and a pair of sea deep, blue, blazing eyes. Trailer of a Hollywood hit? A new pirate story? Yes and no. The pirate story part is true but this is not Hollywood. Presenting Wild Seas, a video slot game by Elk Studios.

Aye Captain — Towards the Wild Seas

Wild Seas is high on visual effects. The short intro movie as the game starts sets the mood. No player would wish to press skip intro as the visual effects come into play. It offers 5 reels and 178 paylines, yes that’s a huge one. The reels are set against the sea backdrop and are almost transparent. A coin stack symbol on the down left fades in and out and takes you to set the bet. The coin size ranges from 0.20 to 100. Once you are done setting the coin size, here’s how you go about the game.

• A Spin button on the bottom right side is pressed to set the reels in motion.
• The upper right-hand corner has the autopsin button which can be used to fix the number of spins.
• The upper left-hand corner has three lines which take the players to the pay table for the Wild Seas and other information that can be accessed while playing the game.
• Choosing the betting selector gives players a chance to use one of the four strategies namely Optimizer, Jumper, Leveller and Booster.

There are three kinds of wilds in this slot game. The Wild Seas flag is the Wild bonus substituting all the other symbols. Two or more flags together on the reels trigger the Break the Convoy bonus game.

Sailing Wilds and Sticky Wilds are the other two wilds in the game.

There are bonus games which start one after the other as the levels proceed. Players enter the first bonus game of Wild Seas when they land more than two wilds; this is known as the Break the Convoy game.

The game starts on reel 5 and takes you to the next level: Loot the Treasure when players manage to sink at least one ship.

Loot the treasure has chest symbol as the wild to replace all other symbols. The bonus game ends when the barrel symbol explodes.
