Pragmatic Play launches new pirate-themed slot

Pragmatic Play announced Monday the release of its pirate-themed latest title, “Star Pirates Code”, which challenges players to rely on their navigation skills to find their way to a bounty full of gold. 

The base game is played out in a coastal environment with waves crashing and lanterns glowing behind the reels. The four low-paying symbols are represented by purple, green, red and blue colored gems, with premium symbols arriving in the form of treasure chests, silver and gold coins. Multipliers are represented by skulls. 

The Compass Wild feature is a mechanic that populates reels in one random direction with Wilds. Whenever a compass symbol lands, the re-spin feature is triggered, awarding players one respin. Multiplier values on Wilds are applied to each win that they are part of, and when no Wilds are landed, the re-spins feature session ends, returning players to the base game. 

The mechanics in “Star Pirates Code” has been described by the company as an “easy to understand” game for various player types, making it a “mass market appeal” product. 

This new title arrives after the company’s latest release, “Day of Dead” and “Cash Bonanza”, joining a collection of more than 200 HTML5 titles in Pragmatic Play’s portfolio. 

On this title, Julian Jarvis, CEO at Pragmatic Play, commented: "We are very satisfied with how Star Pirates Code™ has materialised, bringing an exciting new theme together with our time-tested mechanics. We're eager to see how our audiences receive the pirate-themed adventure, made all the more sweet by the incredible prizes that are on offer."
