Whenever one or more Pirate Coins appear on the reels during the main game or free spins, there is an additional chance of triggering the Bonus Game with barrel features. Each barrel collects Pirate Coins of the same colour – green, red or blue. The combination of the barrels which have activated the Bonus Game determine the variety of features awarded.

The Extra Coin Feature electrifies gameplay by transforming the Extra Coin into a green, red or blue Pirate Coin at random. It will then either randomly activate an additional barrel feature or enhance the active one with an extra coin. Landing three pirate ship-themed Scatter symbols during base play triggers the Free Spins round where eight are awarded. Fortunate players who then secure a further three Scatter symbols are granted an additional eight spins maximising players chances of lavish wins.

Lucky slot enthusiasts can also scoop one of the game’s four fixed jackpots with Mini, Minor, Major and Grand Jackpots offering corresponding values worth up to a whopping x5,000.

3 Pirate Barrels: Hold and Win underlines Playson’s ability of elevating renowned game series with fresh and innovative features to keep players captivated worldwide.

Tamas Kusztos, CCO at Playson, said: “3 Pirate Barrels: Hold and Win offers a sea voyage like no other. Our Bonus Game with themed coins and barrels provides vast opportunities for grand wins with the Extra Coin feature further enhancing the title’s captivating nature.
