This Pirates Smugglers Paradise mobile slot is a pretty 5×5 game that dares to do something a little different with the sticky win concept.
Made using the Yggdrasil Gaming studios, this Pirate Smugglers Paradise slot is a bright breezy affair that clearly doesn’t take itself too seriously.
All your symbols are set on 5 reels and 5 rows of a pirate ship sail somewhere in the warm Caribbean. Your only companion in this journey is a little crab who has lost his claw to some vicious hungry pirates and now has a hook instead.
As Pirate slots go, it’s charming enough, with a tongue in cheek feel that makes us think of NetEnt’s Hooks Heroes.
Pirates Smugglers Paradise is a 5×5 grid slot where you get wins when 6 or more symbols are touching each other vertically or horizontally. It’s not uncommon in these kinds of games, like in the original Energoonz slot machine or even Rise of Olympus by Play’n GO.
What is unusual is how the sticky wins work. When you get a cluster, the other symbols disappear, the winning symbols drop down to the bottom of the grid.
More symbols then drop from above, but only winning symbols are kept, and drop down, for as long as you keep getting that symbol.
If you manage to get two lines you get a 2x multiplier on that win. Get 3 lines and you get a 3x multiplier. You get the idea.
We say surprisingly because when you open it up, you don’t expect much from such a simple video slot. It’s only when you start taking a few spins that you realise that there’s so much more being this Pirates phone slots.
Pirates Smugglers Paradise slot feels unique. Even the three different types of free spin bonus round make this stand out. Why? Because you get three different ways to enrich your bonus game – from less low paying symbols to sticky multipliers, to extra drop symbols.
We will say however to be careful with your bet – unless you hit 5x multiplier, getting much more than 10x your bet can be hard work, but because you get lots of little wins, you may not realise that you are actually just slowly losing.
Still, there’s some treasure to be found within this Pirate game and it’s well worth a trip to the award-winning Leo Vegas casino to check it out.

Cluster Pays Slot: Whenever 6 adjacent symbols touch either horizontally or vertically, you create a win.
Dropdown Wins and Multipliers: When you create a cluster of wins, all non-winning symbols are removed and the winning symbols drop down to the bottom of the reels. You then keep getting new symbols drop down from above for as long as you keep getting those winning symbols on screen.
This ends when no more symbols are found, or you fill the screen. For each full line, you complete you can also get a multiplier - 2 full lines pay out a 2x multiplier, 3 full lines a 3x multiplier, 4 full lines a 5x multiplier and 5 full lines a 10x multiplier.
Scatters and Free Spins: Collect 3 treasure maps and you trigger 7 free spins. You are then asked to choose a spot and you'll get:
Clearly, the multiplier one is the best.
Despite the awkwardly long name, this Pirates Smugglers Paradise mobile game has plenty of charm, despite a fairly generic setting.
Still, it is well crafted, and we like the new 'sticky win' set up that makes this stand out from all the usual Jack Hammer slot rip-offs.
Instead, this is wonderfully different as the cluster pays and drop down wins adds a nice touch to what could have been a fairly middle of the road grid slot game.
One to try if you like games like Light Blocks from Merkur of Viking Runecraft from Play'n GO.
