Captain Glum Pirate Hunter Slot Review

The main character from Captain Glum Pirate Hunter slot from Play'n Go sounds like he should be a goth or an EMO dude, but no – he’s every bit the pirate. And he has a rival, too: the Pirate Queen. 🦜⚓️

She’s known as “the matriarch of the seas” but that makes her sound like an old fart. She’s not, though, and with her green hair and her love for a good old scrap, she’s going to give our wig-wearing captain a run for his money.

This next game is stunningly well put together and it drew me in like a siren beckoning a horny sailor. 🧜‍♀️

Gameplay

Fire up this game and you’ll be treated to a sweet splash screen video where you’ll see the respective captains’ ships squaring off against each other.

Then the view transitions into an aerial shot of a tropical beach with the 5x3 reel floating in the air above it, nestled between some fluffy clouds.

The captains appear in the clouds as they goad each other with utterances like “Yer tongue is like a cat o’ nine tails” or “Ha! They raised the yellow jack.” Otherwise, they’ll shoot off gambling phrases like “Riches claimed.”

It’s a stunning game filled with details that add to the rich tapestry of the experience. Play’n GO, I salute you!

It’s actually alright to play this game on a mobile device. Portrait mode renders the grid slightly larger than when viewed in landscape mode, and the symbols are discernable and the action isn’t difficult to follow.

This game works with Connecting PaylinesPaylines are preset lines that run across the reels, and when you land matching symbols on them, that will result in a payout. The more paylines, the more ways you can win, but also the higher your bet per spin. – in other words, wins are “awarded for the maximum number of symbols on a continuous payline.”

You can play using any fiat currency, as long as it’s not the Japanese yen. Captain Glum Pirate Hunter slot has a medium volatility rate, a 96.2% RTPRTP stands for “Return to Player.” The RTP describes the total bet amount that a game returns to players over millions of spins, and that figure is represented by a percentage. Table games, such as Roulette, typically have higher RTPs than many slots.

, a possible 9,000x multiplier, and a €225,000 max win.

Features

PERMANENT WILD:

The Wild symbol is permanent and constantly moves to a new spot on the middle three reels. Wilds replace all other symbols except the Scatter.

CAPTAIN’S DUE:

This feature can be randomly activated when at least one Scatter lands in view. A Permanent Wild will replace the Scatter (or one of them if there are multiples). As this Wild moves about, it’ll leave Wake Wilds behind. So more Wilds, more chances of winning.

FREE SPINS:

Three or more landed Scatters in the base game get you into the Free Spins round. You’ll trigger the Treasure Hunt by sinking more ships than the pirates manage to.

Broadside:
During Free Spins, you’ll see the Pirate Hunter (a.k.a. Captain Glum) at the bottom of the grid, and the Pirates (our green-haired queen) at the top. The ships will square off and fire at each other.

If you do a good job, the destroyed hull segments can extend from 4 rows to 5. The cannons can take 1 to 3 spins to reload, which adds to the excitement.

If the Pirate Hunters have a higher score at the end of the Free Spins round, that’ll trigger the Treasure Hunt feature.

TREASURE HUNT:

You’ll get to pick from one of three treasure chests to multiply your Free Spins total. The multipliers could be 2x, 3x, or 10x.

Performance

The action on Captain Glum Pirate Hunter slot was glitch-free throughout testing.

Maximum Win

Captain Glum Pirate Hunter slot finds the right mix of goodies that would satisfy even someone as notoriously difficult as Goldilocks.

The highest multiplier you can clinch is 9,000x which is sweet. That, coupled with a max bet of €25 gives you a top prize worth €225,000 – on a medium volatility game! The smallest amount you can bet is €0.05 by the way.

Conclusion

Man, I’m a sucker for a game like Captain Glum Pirate Hunter slot. It’s brilliantly thought out and there are so many design elements, animations, splash screens, and clever details that you can’t help but become immersed in the game.

I’m not much of a mobile player (even though it’s possible to play on a smaller device) so for me, the way this game looks on a desktop or laptop is simply stunning.

However, it took me forever and a day to trigger the Free Spins round each time (your experience might be different), and with no Buy Bonus to fast-track your way there, it can be a bit frustrating sitting in the base game.

All told, this is one of my favorite games of recent times. Try it, or I’ll make ye walk the plank! 🏴‍☠️
