Bonus Games

For each ball that lands in the bonus bag, one ball is added to the next bonus game after all current balls have stopped. The longer you progress on the pirate map, the bigger the rewards in each bonus game. The bonus games are as follows (in order of occurrence):

Kraken Peninsula

There are at least 8 strong reasons not to go here, and the same 8 arguments you’ll need to win to go to the next level.

Mermaid Cove

At first they seem friendly, and so more than one villain comes in, but never leaves. But not you, because you’re a proper pirate!

Ball Launcher

This is where all the balls come into play.

Pegs

Small objects that the balls hit when they fall. How the balls travel through the course depends on how they hit these pins.

Award Pockets

If the ball hits one of them, its journey ends and you get the value of the prize bag.

• Base game values: 0.2x, 0.3x, 0.8x, 1.2x, 2x, 5x
• Kraken Peninsula Bonus Game values: 0.5x, 1x, 3x, 5x, 10x, 25x
• Mermaid Cove Bonus Game Values: 0.2x, 0.3x, 0.8x, 1.2x, 2x, 5x, 15x

Award Gates

If the ball passes through one of them, you get the gate value and the ball continues on its way.

• Base game values: 0.1x
• Mermaid Cove feature game values: 0.1x, 0.5x

Bonus Pockets

For every ball that goes into the bonus bag, one ball is added to the next bonus game. The bonus game will start after all current balls have completed their trajectory.

Portal Gates

Balls that enter the gantry gate are transferred to the connected gantry exit.

Re-Launcher

Each ball that hits one of them will re-shoot 3 new balls from the launcher at the top of the playing field.

EXTRA BET

Paying 1.5x your bet will add additional bonus pockets to the board, increasing your chances of winning the bonus game.

Buy Feature

You can buy into the bonus games. By paying 4 or 7 times your bet, you will trigger all your balls directly into the first or second feature game. The bonus game works in the same way as the random trigger. Not all Buy Feature levels are available in all markets.

• Buy Feature RTP is 98.39% for the first Buy Feature, and 98.70% for the second.

How Plinko Works

The balls are launched from the same position at the top and drop down through a set of pins, gates and pockets. These spread the balls around the board. They usually fall in the centre, and therefore the more sideways and the lower they are placed, the bigger the prizes. The payouts are shown as multiples of the current bet per ball on the game board. A malfunction cancels all payouts.
