Pirates' Plenty on a phone

SIDEWAYS ONLY 3.1 s TO PLAYABLE FREE DEMO

This one makes you turn the phone. 3.1 s to load, and no upright build exists.

Sideways is the only layout and the buttons are built for it. Fine in two hands, awkward hanging off a pole on the subway. The demo pulls about 13 MB before the first tap registers, which on a poor bar is where the 3.1 s goes. Getting money back out is a separate count and we keep it at cashout.

This title ships in more than one return build

Red Tiger licenses 2 configurations of Pirates' Plenty. The spread from top to bottom is 2.45 points, which is about C$25 in expected cost per C$1,000 staked. Same reels, same features, different maths.

How to see which one you are on, in three taps

  1. Open the demo and tap the burger or the ⓘ in the game's own toolbar, not the casino's.
  2. Scroll the info panel to the bottom. The return figure is printed in the rules footer.
  3. Compare it to the table above. If it is not the top row, that is the build you are being served.

123 of the 306 titles on this board carry more than one build, so this is worth doing once per game rather than once ever.

Where it sits on the board

Ranked 292 of 306 here, and none of that ranking is about the game. It is about the handset. The board median is 2.1 s, so this one costs you an extra 1 s a session.

Across the 7 Red Tiger titles here the median is 2.2 s and 3 render upright.

What the game is

Red Tiger shipped it in 2019 on a 5x3 (6th reel earned in play), 20 lines board running map collection / wild ship. Pirate voyage where collecting map scatters opens a sixth reel, with the Wild Ship sailing across it dropping wilds.

Medium volatility, so treat the demo as a look at the rhythm and not at the maths. Minimum stake is C$0.10, which is about 200 spins on a twenty. Ceiling is 2,500x and it is not going to happen to you.
