Cursed Seas review

Theme and Style

Haunting secrets await players when they join the pirates of Cursed Seas.

On a perilous voyage with a gang of profiteers, players will search the ocean for treasure. However, things take a turn when supernatural forces take hold, ensuring that this will be an unforgettable adventure.

Players looking for a spooking atmosphere will particularly enjoy Cursed Seas.

Visuals and Soundtrack

The reels seem to be crafted out of worn paper, bringing to mind an old treasure map. The symbols include pistols, skulls, and treasure chests.

A number of characters also appear on the reels, each with a slightly ghostly quality. One wears a red bandana, bringing to mind the iconic Captain Jack Sparrow from the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise.

The setting is an ocean scene, complete with a cloudy sky, violent waves, and a vulnerable ship. During special features, the background changes to a depiction of a sinking ship. This adds to the moody vibe of this slot.

The soundtrack of Cursed Seas is a folksy melody blended with distant howls and the crashing of waves, which helps to create a slightly unsettling atmosphere.

Bonus Gameplay and Special Features

The Wild symbol substitutes for all regular symbols.

Cursed Areas are created when Cursed Chest symbols open. These areas extend from the position of the Cursed symbol to the top of the reel, in the event that this would include at least one winning symbol. Cursed Chest symbols have the special ability to substitute for any regular symbol.

Cursed Multipliers ranging from 2x to 200x are associated with Cursed Chest symbols. Any wins that take place partly or entirely in a Cursed Area will benefit from these Cursed Multipliers.

The Sunken Treasure Bonus begins when players land at least 3 Lantern symbols. The feature begins with 10 free spins and throughout the feature Cursed Chests always form Cursed areas. These Cursed Areas then remain on the reels until the conclusion of the Sunken Treasure Bonus.

All Cursed Multipliers associated with Cursed Chests contribute to the Total Multiplier which is above the reels and is active throughout the Sunken Treasure Bonus.

Landing 2 additional Lantern symbols results in 2 additional free spins while players are in the Sunken Treasure Bonus.

If players land 4 Lantern symbols, the Dead Men Tell No Tales Bonus is triggered, starting with 3 refilling free spins, or "lives."

Only Kraken symbols, special Skull symbols, and non-paying symbols land during the Dead Men Tell No Tales Bonus. A multiplier above each reel increases as the feature progresses.

Multipliers associated with Kraken symbols contribute to the multipliers above each reel. Meanwhile, Cursed Skull symbols reveal multipliers that are also added to the multipliers above each reel. This Cursed Area can expand if additional Cursed Skulls land below the area.

The player’s remaining free spins are refilled when at least one Kraken symbol or special Skull symbol lands on the reels.

Conclusion

We recommend this high RTP (96.22%), high volatility pirates, and horror-themed slot.

This slot’s impressive graphics make it eye-catching from the moment players enter the game.

Meanwhile, the decent RTP and variety of bonus features provide further appeal.
