game ReviewThe Ghost Pirates game can be found at NetEnt casinos. NetEnt do make the house edge information of their slots games available and this can be found in the help files of the game (usually accessed by pressing the ‘?’ button at the bottom left of the game window). NetEnt games appear to only have one setting.Come On! casino lists Ghost Pirates as having a house edge of between 3.1% and 4.7%, with the lowest house edge available only when playing the maximum number of paylines.Based on a roving ship of ruthless dead pirates crossing the oceans searching for treasure.This game is a 5 reel game, and does not use traditional paylines. Instead any 3 or more matching symbols in any position on adjacent reels starting from the left side of the reels is considered a win. This is equivalent to 243 standard paylines and you can bet up to 5 coins, this is spread over groups of lines.Ghost Pirates has only the one bonus feature to activate it you need to get 3 or more of the ‘Treasure Chest’ scatter symbol in a row on a payline starting from the left. However being as there are so many paylines, if you are playing them all three scatter symbols anywhere in the first three reels will activate this bonus feature. When this happens, you’ll receive a set number of complimentary spins with a three times multiplier.→ Read MoreConclusionThe number of paylines this ...

When I put the coin value at $0.01 the bet was of $0.01 for 3 bet ways and $0.25 for 243 bet ways.

The slot has wild symbol which could replace any symbol. Yes even the scatter could be replaced by the wild. I really like animation of the wild symbol when it becomes the part of any wining combination. The free spin feature is triggered when 3+ scatter symbols appear on the reels in succession from left to right. The scatter symbol used in the slot is of box which is full of gold coins. I triggered the free spin feature I guess after 50 spins or so. 3 scatter symbols awarded me 15 free spins and 3 x multiplier. I was betting at $o.25 per spin then and I made whooping 4672 coins from the free spins that is $46.72. I made withdrawal at around $35 win and I made approximately 150-200 spins.

Conclusion is that the slot is excellent in graphics. The symbols used are just perfect and truly justify the theme.In returns I would say it is bit on a mediocre side. The slot is good to play on lower bets. I did experience it gives better returns then. Because from this slot big win is only possible in free spins feature. It is an addictive slot and I would recommend every slot lover to do try this slot. I would rate the slot 8/10.

Slot has 243 lines, and it is same as Victorious slot, there is same 0.25 lowest possible bet per spin. Also there is an option to play less lines, but I have never played it in other mode, only with enabled 243 lines. As it is same as Victorious, you can wait good wins in feature which is freespins with x 3 multiplier, but in main game it is a bit hard to get decent win, only 5 good paying symbols with few wilds can produce monster, or 5 of a kind of good symbols can give moderate win. I usually playing this slot with 0.25 bets, but sometimes when my balance is very good I can try this slot with 0.5 bets, but not too often.

I had best main game win with 0.5 bet, it was 41 euro, not so big how someone probably think, but it is very good money and decent result. In freespins at 0.25 euros once I won more than 100 euros, about 120 I think. It was with 4 times feature add me more freespins, no 5 scatters, but I played many freespins with x 3 multiplier, and good wins come to me often, and such way I win so much money with so low bet amount.

As conclusion I can say that it is good and interesting slot game, sometimes it is of course trying to eat all money and does not give freespins, but I have a cure for it - just left it and play something other, this usually helps me to just lost my deposit. Of course I had some bad game times at this slot, but not so much like at many other slots. Do not fear it but usual advice not bet too high.

s here substitute for scatters, but wilds appear only on reels 2, 3 and 4. So you anyway need scatter at least on reel 1 to trigger free spins feature. During free spins there is x 3 multiplier, and there is nothing else. But to compensate my not very good words about this slot I should say that during free spins it is not hard to get good win, because any 5 of a kind already means good win here. It is a bit strange, because usually slots with 243 lines pay not so much for usual 5 of a kinds, but here is payouts good and it is of course positive thing about this slot.

Overall it is same slot like victorious, but I did not like it, no option of quick spin is really bad thing for me, also looks like victorious is much more lucky game for me. Taking all this in to one and I could say that i do not play this game often, not interesting to click all the time stop or wait so long till spin will be done.

It looks a bit dark and I like the animations with the fire burning around the slot. The music is OK and reminds me of some pirate movie but still it does get a bit boring after some time.

Depending on your bet you can choose to play this slot from 3 ways up to 243 ways. When I played the game I chose 243 ways because you have bigger chances in winning something. The minimum bet to play this game is 25 cents which is great for a 243 way slot game. The paytable is descent compared to some other slots from this provider and the two highest paying symbols award a win of 1500 and 1000 coins for 5 of them on the reels. What’s interesting here is that the paytable is the same no matter how many ways you choose to play. The wild symbol can come on all reels. He doesn’t have a multiplier attached but substitutes for all symbols including the scatter. This way the free spins bonus should be easier to trigger. The scatter symbol has a relatively low payout of 50 x bet for 5 of them on the reels.

If you manage to get 3 scatters from left to right or a mixed number including the wild symbol you trigger the free spins bonus. You can get 15 free spins up to 25 free spins for 5 scatters on the reels. In the free spins all wins have a x 3 multiplier attached.

I played this game a few times and overall the wins during base play are small to medium and you get some occasional big wins to boost the balance. My biggest win in the free spins was a little over 100 x bet. Maybe I will try it again in the future hoping for bigger wins.

Ghost Pirates slot has a pirate theme, but I do not like its graphics at all and that’s one of the reason I like Victorious better. I find the graphics unattractive and ugly and many times confusing.

One big difference from Victorious is that it can be played with many ways, you can use the option to play it with 3, 9, 27, 81 and 243 ways. In order to see how this works you better see the paytable to have a better view of how this option works. I play it with 243 ways and the minimum bet is 0,25.

Ghost Pirates has for symbols pirates and other pirates stuff. The best paying symbols are the pirates Peggy Rotten, One-Eyed Ed and the lowest is the anchor. Also there is the wild which substitute all symbols but it comes only on reel 2 and 4 and also the scatter. If you get the scatter in the first 3 reels or more you trigger the free spins feature which gives you 15 free spins for 3 scatters, 20 free spins for 4 and 25 for 5 scatters. Also the wins at the free spins are multiplied 3 times. If you play with less of 243 ways you get 5 free spins less and also there are small differences at the paytable.

As I said I enjoy playing this game only for the wins it gives me as you can win big if you get free spins and get many retriggers during them.

I really liked the design of this slot, it has ghost pirates, maps, parrot guns, anchor etc. There's nothing redundant, everything is on its right place.

This slot has 5 reels and 243 ways and I believe this is one of the rare games from Netent that has 243 ways. Usually I have association that 243 way slots are money eaters, but here a great thing is that you can adjust your bets and bet as little as 1 coin on 3 ways which would make the bet 0.10€. I would definitely stick with the minimum bet on all 243 ways which is only 0.25€ per spin.

This game has a wild symbol that substitutes for any symbol. As a bonus feature, Ghost Pirates only have free spins round. They are triggered if 3 or more scatters appear in succession from leftmost to right. I believe that is the little catch here, as it is harder to get free spins round that way, comparing to slots where you need at least 3 scatters anywhere. If you bet on 243 ways, you can get from 15-25 free spins, but if you bet on less ways, you can get from 10-20 free spins, all of them are 3 x multiplied.
To try this game a little more I played it with minimum bets at Casumo casino for 1000 spins. Unfortunately my session was quite tight, I got only 2 free spins rounds and they paid around 20 x bet.

Overall I think this slot is a decent Netent game with mediocre payouts, at least so far. Definitely not my favorite game from all this software slots because so far I am not sure about it's winning potential, but at the same time, looking at fellow AskGamblers screenshot here, maybe it's worth trying it more. I think it is great that paylines can be changed, it is a good variety and it means you can play this game with low fund too. I would rate it with 7/10.

t of course if you think that game look modern it is not right because it is old game, I do not judge game look by modern animations and things like that.

I like that there is possibly to play even with 1 penny stake. You should choose which amount lines you could play - 3, 9, 27, 81 or 243. I am always playing full 243 ways, and it is cost 25 penny. Not so high for amount of lines like this.

I do like that there is good payouts for 243 lines game. No stacked wilds, but 5 of a kind of best symbols could pay very decent.

I like freespins feature in this slot. It is same as in victorious slot. For 3 or more scatters from left to right you got freespins. For 3 scatters it is 15 freespins, and also multiplier for all freespins always x 3. Wilds which appear only on middle reels can substitute for scatters so it is sometimes very easy to retrigger freespins feature.

I had many features in this slot and win more than 100 bets. And strange but there is good hint like with victorious. For example you got freespins feature, it paid you less than 10 bets or so. Keep playing and soon feature will trigger again and pay much better, at least 50 bets. Worked for me many times, so use it if you want. My best win was almost 200 bets, around 180, and it was in freespins with two retriggers.

I rate this game with nine stars.

think this is great idea that you can select how many paylines would you like to have in this game. I almost always select 243 pay lines, I tried some other numbers of different pay lines but I had no luck.

This game has good paytable, I saw some nice videos and also photos from this game. When I played it, I played at minimum bet stakes and I made a couple of hundred spins. I tried to get those boxes for trigger free games, but it was so hard to get them all 3 together on the reels. Main game pays well, but I hate it because it didn't give me any free spins.

I think this game is good only if you receive free spins. Those wins will be at x3 multiplier. I hate to wait long time for free spins and this will happen at this game. I don't like the fact that the scatters must be in position from left to right on the first 3 reel to trigger feature. Maybe it was only once that I had 2 scatters at first 3 reels. Otherwise they showed up on reel 4 or 5 all the time. I don't know why they make it in this way if they could not help me on those last reels.

Maybe I will play this game sometimes, but this is not very popular game for me. I prefer to play some other game from NetEnt software with the same numbers of paylines. But sure I recommend it to all to try it out.

You can't escape them, you can't avoid them, but you can certainly run away from them! Hahaha.

Ghost Pirates was one of those rare beautifully created games from NetEnt in those days. The icons are all beautifully presented with rich details and colour. The scenarios and background scenes are no less well treated and presented too. A really cool game to look at, to admire, and best of all, a cool game to play, if you don't expect too much out of it! All games have predesignated aspects put into them. Some can pay really huge, but can eat you monstrously too. Some can give you lots of yo-yo fun, without tearing a big hole in your wallet, but there are also some games which can never take off the ground - these are the unsuccessful games which every games provider do faced at one time or another. But Ghost Pirates certainly isn't one of this!

Even though the Wild symbol, the Pirate, doesn't pay for itself, doesn't double any wins, doesn't come stacked or expanded, doesn't move about or appear anywhere randomly, it does substitute for ALL other symbols, which is at least one good thing going for it. So it makes getting 5-of-a-kinds and 5 scatters so much easier! In fact, Ghost Pirates is one of the rare games that I have actually won 5 scatters, but, sadly enough, those 5 scatters did not pay as good as in other games. What a blardy waste of a 5 scatters win!

The free spins game, activated by the usual 3 or more scatter symbols, can come slightly more easily than other games, simply because of the Wild's substitution capability. This was how I won that 5 scatters anyway, with 2 Wilds substituting for the scatter. In spite of that, the free spins game that followed, including getting one retrigger of 15 more free spins, paid out a miserably low amount of 147x my total bet, that's including the 5-scatters win amount! That was a big disappointment for me, because I could have won at least 500x my total bet on any other game! So, in this sense, Ghost Pirates cannot pay out really huge amounts, but it does provide you with lots of playing fun and playing time.

But pirates theme and idea is very interesting in my opinion or according 'my books and papers'.  There is no violence nor robbery at sea in this 5-reels, 243- paylines video slot.

I have played this slot occasional, last year after seeing screenshots on the AskGamblers forum and like it happens, I was curious and wanted to check it out. This slot comes with superb graphics and very nice symbols. Theme, background and soundtrack are too beautiful. Wild symbol substitute for all symbols and nothing more to be said about wild symbol. Wining combinations with scatter are doubled and pay x2 the total bet.Free Spins bonus round is triggered when you collect 3 scatters and all wins during free spins are x3 multiplier (tripled). 3-scatter – 15 FreeSpins; 4 – 20 FreeSpins and 5 – 25 FreeSpins. Peggy Rotten is most valuable symbol and pay 1500 coins for collecting 5 of them. One-eyed Ed pays 1000 coins; Mad Monkey 500 coins and last one is Polly with 400 coins award for collecting 5 of a kind.

Sadly to say, but this paytable looks poor. I don't know neither what and how to win 'something' in this game. Not in the base game.. maybe FreeSpins bonus round .. and re-triggering FreeSpins. No features in this game that would make this game truly tasty and following fantastic theme . I am not interested in future sessions but you never know. I expected 'generous' paytable and I am a bit disappointed.

The games logo does look attractive though I get the feeling it might possibly have been "inspired" by a certain popular pirate themed movie series!

It's good that the presentation is so slick because Ghost Pirates doesn't have a great many surprises during play. Three to five scatters starts a typical free spins round, with extra spins for four or five scatters (the exact number varies depending on the number of ways activated) and all wins during free spins receive a 3x multiplier. Most of the paytable wins remain the same regardless of the number of ways played but there are some small differences at the very bottom end of the table.

I believe they were behind those movies, and since they don't want to jeopardize their "family friendly" image they don't deal with casino developers.

That doesn't take away though that Net Entertainment doesn't have what it takes to produce a great pirates themed slot based without their permission or help. Not sure what it's based on, but perhaps it's the novel? Anyway enough about that, Ghost Pirates is a great slot which offers more betting options than any other slot I've dealt with in the past. You can manually select the number of paylines you want to play with. The following options are possible : 3, 9, 27, 81 and all the way up to 243 ways to win.

The size of your bet increases along the way when you up your number of paylines. The lowest bet size only €0.01 for each bet you place. If you play the 243 ways to win format then the lowest bet size is €0.25. My usual bet was €1 just like many other slots I've played.

Ghost Pirates is a slot that also looks very professional if we strictly speak about the design of the slot. Very slick with lots of innovative designed symbols you would expect in animated type of Pirates movie. The best paid symbols are that of Peggy Rotten and One Eyed Ed. The treasure chest is the scatter symbol, but you need to get 3 or more in succession to activate the free spins feature. This slot also has wild symbols on every reel.

I found myself winning a bit easily on this game with 20x, 30x bet size wins on a regular basis. I think I was probably just a bit too lucky. It took me lots of time to trigger the free spins bonus though since it seems more difficult to trigger.

However, once I managed to win 15 free spins with 3x multiplier right after the first spin I had 3 scatters again. That meant I had 29 free spins now, and I just knew I had to win big during that session or else it would have been a huge disappointment. I kept playing and thanks a lot of five of a kinds, albeit not the best paying symbols, I managed to win 280x bet size.

I'm surprised I haven't played this slot as much as I liked too. Probably because I just realized that I got very lucky and the potential isn't all that.

My final rating for Ghost Pirates is 8/10.

Whenever I play Ghost Pirates I always expect to make good wins out of them especially when it comes to putting the slot on 243 ways instead of the other 4 options of 3, 9, 27 or 81 ways. The betting is really small, for 243 ways the minimum is just a small $0.25 but with my nature to go big I like putting on 4 coins. You must be wondering why I put my bets on $1 instead of max bet for $1.25, well....it's because most wins are agreeable on this bet. Max betting on Ghost Pirates doesn't give me much...it would be betting high for example, $25 a spin or something and expect to get almost nothing out of them. $1 is enough to win most of the time and when it comes to free spins they are much more. Below 243 ways like 3, 9, 27 or 81 ways the free spins are only worth 10 Free spins but for 243 ways (or way wins) 15 free spins are better! All of us can agree that all paylines are the best for when winning combinations and 5 more free spins for the feature on Ghost Pirates. To tell you the truth it is difficult sometimes to land these chest scatters because they need to be started on the left side making them as what we call "left to right" scatters. In my spins I kind of press the spin button then I stop it immediately then I repeat the process. That's how I get my free spins, usually, but not all the time it happens. I do it to maintain some timing for a spin to hopefully get good results or free spins that I've been wanted.

Expect a windfall of gratitude when the free spins hit, especially on 243 ways! Everything is 3x inside the free spins and payouts are much appreciated. I won $43.80 in one feature but got really lucky for $76 on another trigger! If you can be patient in this slot it can be very rewarding! A 9 out of 10 for Ghost Pirates! They should make up a slot called Ghost Dogs - The Howls of Night :D

am love to play this slot, because apart from many others famous 243 line slots, it have no any stacked or expanding wilds, and this is means that payout for 5 of a kinds will be much more better than on many others 243 liners. Moreover, 5 of a kind best symbol will pay more than 100 x total bet, and for 243 liner this is very good, and always keep you interested to play this slot. Wilds also presented on this slot, but only on 2 3 4 reels, and can substitute for any symbol, including scatters, so get free spins or 5 scatters it is not the hardest job on this slot, 5 scatters pay you 50 x total bet and this is nice , because as i told, it is not so hard to get them. Free spins on this slot triggered by scatters, but you need to get them in accordance, i mean that to trigger free spins you need at least scatters or wilds on 1 2 3 reels, if you get scatters on 1 2 4 5 reels you will get nothing, take it in your mind. 15 free spins triggering by 3 scatters, 20 by 4 scatters, and finally 25 free spins for 5 scatters. Also all free spins has a nice 3 x multiplier, which of course gives you good chances to hit on free spins.

I think ghost pirates is amazing medium variance slot, and for me it is always a pleasure to play on it. I get 5 scatters both in free spins and on base game, and payouts on this slot is really great. You definitely should try this video slot.

As mentioned above there are 2 problems:
1 . The Free spins round is very, very difficult to access.
2. Sometimes you can lose big before returning afloat.

No quick spin is my only negative thing about this slot, but it is really very important for me, my game play is almost ruined if slot is slow, so I did not rate this game high.

I took one star because there is no quick spin option, too slow play.

Without being too repetitive, the Wild symbol doesn't do anything more other than to substitute for all symbols, there's a lack of huge win possibilities in the game, and the low paytable makes everything else no better. Ghost Pirates could certainly be a big hit with a better paytable, but that's just how some things are. Some made it, some didn't. For me, Ghost Pirates fell short of it!

I don't know why! Microgaming almost always make these two highly unlikely combinations return a prize befitting of their rarity and I can't see any good reason for a game not to offer this. Also, I always feel that 243 ways games work best with stacked wild symbols, afterall that is the only way to win on a large number of ways simultaneously, but those are not offered here.

The spin sound effect doesn't quite fit with the game which might sound like a minor thing but whilst the effects are enabled you will be hearing it every couple of seconds so I do think it worthy of a mention.

Pretty much every 243 ways game I can ever remember having played has a fixed minimum bet size, usually between 0.25 and 0.50 per spin, so I was both intrigued and confused to see the option in Ghost Pirates allowing selection of various numbers of active ways. My guess is that in the early days of ways-to-win games some players found the concept difficult to understand or didn't like being restricted as to how many lines they wished to play so NetEnt tried to come up with a compromise. It's a nice idea but does make the game quite difficult to understand and I recommend just playing the full 243 ways - you may well get a dramatically reduced RTP if you do not.

I've said quite a few negative things about Ghost Pirates which is a shame because I do feel positive about the game overall - it's just that there is so little original or unique here, it really is a very standard slot game. It looks great and is enjoyable to play, plus I've had reasonable luck playing the game with a couple of hugely profitable sessions. I guess what all the negative points say is that it really could have been a lot better with a few simple tweaks and I really wish NetEnt would pay more attention to what is great about their competitors games and implement those features themselves, they definitely have the potential to be the best.
