Star Pirates Code review

Theme and Storyline

Star Pirates Code has a sci-fi pirate theme.

By the twinkling light of stars, players will begin a buccaneer adventure, snagging as many jewels and chests of treasure as they can. This is no ordinary pirate exploit, but a technology-infused romp where lasers zap as players seek their fortune.

Fans of gem-themed slots will enjoy the enticing range of precious stones, and players looking for a little adventure will like the atmosphere.

Graphics, Sounds and Animations

The epic soundtrack brings to mind films such as Pirates of the Caribbean, ensuring players will feel a sense of breathless adventure.

The reels are packed with treasure, including brightly-hued jewels such as rubies, emeralds, and sapphires. The animation of the gems works well, suggesting light glinting in their depths.

Coins printed with skulls and treasure chests accented with stars also feature on the reels. The effect is a sense of plentiful booty. Upon wins, lasers shoot between symbols and bolts of electricity shimmer. These suggest that this pirate world is blended with sci-fi features.

Behind the reels is a starry night and gently-moving waves. This creates a calming balance with the action taking place in the reels.

It would have been interesting for Star Pirates Code to include some pirate characters to welcome players. Meeting a sci-fi-influenced pirate would have made this game especially novel.

Overall, the music and animation create an appealing swashbuckling atmosphere.

Wilds, Bonuses and Free Spins

The Wild symbol substitutes for all symbols except the Wild Compass symbol.

The Wild Compass symbol substitutes for all symbols.

Whenever players land the Wild Compass symbol, the Respin feature is triggered. At random, the Wild Compass symbol shows a direction of North, South, East, or West. Then, Wild symbols are added to the reels 2, 3, and 4 in that direction. The Wild symbols are sticky and remain in place as the respin is triggered.

Players will be awarded a +1 multiplier each time Wild symbols from the Wild Compass are added to the positions that are already stuck to a Wild. This multiplier is applied to all combinations that include that Wild symbol.

The feature continues until no more new Wild Compass symbols land. The maximum win is limited to x2500 the player's bet and if this is reached, the feature will end.
