Gold Ahoy Slot Review 2024

Gold Ahoy

Gold Ahoy's 5 reels have a total of 25 paylines. This NextGen slot offers free spins, scatters and wild symbols, with the payouts being up to $50,000.

This pirate themed slot looks quite attractive, thanks to the well thought out graphics and to the work that the developers have put into it. It's the usual array of symbols here, with the tropical island being used as the image in the background, while on the reels you will find all sorts of pirate items. The reels have two torches on both sides, with skulls tied on each one. The logo found at the top has the words Gold Ahoy in gold, with two skulls on the right and the left sides. There are card icons being used here, but the developers have at least made a weak attempt at giving them a theme, by attaching small objects next to them which makes them look like they're pirate themed (shells, anchors, parrots, etc). The other symbols in the game give us pirates, treasure chests, ships, pirate flags, bottles of rum and swords.

Those looking to win the big prize of 25,000 coins, or $50,000, should try and use the maximum bet of $50, where all lines are selected for the maximum chance at the prize and where the coins have the maximum value of $2. The player does have the option to select fewer lines though and he can also reduce the value of the coin all the way down to $0.01.

The wild symbol brings us a pirate with an eye patch, the classic look of a privateer. If you find five pirates on the same payline you can start jumping up in down, as that's the top jackpot combination which awards 25,000 coins. You will get payouts for even fewer wilds than that if they're on the same payline. The rest of the time the wild substitutes for the other symbols, with two exceptions (symbols with map and treasure chest).

The map symbol will give the player access to the round with free games. If the player has three map symbols he can get up to 30 of these free spins, with multipliers being at 4x.

The chest symbol is another feature of the game, used as a scatter. It gives the player access to the bonus round, with a minimum of three symbols required for that to happen.

While there are many pirate themed slots out there, this one has both the prizes and the interesting features, not to mention the design to keep you interested.
