Personal testers opinion

We can say that it is not a bad machine, but Victorious slot has become much more popular among players. At Ghost Pirates slot machine, the prize pool is divided equally between the usual spins and "the bonus free spins feature". In this case, in an ordinary game, the probability of getting any winning reaches 41.12%.

The free spins feature is triggered every 138th spin. However, the slot is in the average range to complete the bonus requirements (the wagering rating is 5.56 from 10). If you do not have serious reason to gamble here - choose the Victorious slot. Note, that RTP numbers are higher when playing via 243 lines.

Recommendations and reviews from the testing team

• This slot, in spite of the similarity with Victorious in the gameplay, is much less popular, although it’s no worse than its clone (except that it has outdated graphics).
• The gameplay of this slot, like on its clone, is clumsy. Unlike Victorious, the slot gives not only the lowest paid symbols but also lines of the highest paid symbols.
• In contrast to many others, this slot often gives out scatters that fail to reach the reels (scatters on reels 1, 2, 4 and 5; scatters on reels 2,3,4,5), despite the higher number of lines, and in that way pushes the player to play further. At the same time, it puts 5 scatters not only in the usual spins but also in the bonus one, which brings quite large winnings.
• A separate advantage is that NetEnt experts did not change the re-triggers issuance gameplay. Like in Victorious, the slot quite often issues re-triggers, and in large quantities, including five in the bonus game, which brings a big win.
• In spite of the many winning combinations, the slot is quite bad at keeping the balance, although it is much better than its clone.
• Therefore, if no free spin was triggered for 100-150 spins, leave the slot. If free spins were often triggered, but with small wins, do not rush to leave the game, usually the slot is still compressed and gives out several good bonus games almost in a row.

I would recommend trying this slot for real and bonus money but on short game sessions. Make 30-60 spins to check the frequency of winnings, and the slot should trigger free spins at the beginning of the session; if it doesn’t, there is no point in continuing the game. About playing with bonus money is good to look after the behaviour of the slot (Hot or Cold), and then make a decision to continue for a long game or change it.

The probabilities are declared by Netent (for playing on 243 pay lines)

• The total percentage of the return (RTP) in the slot is 95.28%. Of these: 66.4% in the usual and 30.5% in the bonus free spins feature.

• The probability of falling out of the bonus free games (3 or more scatter symbols) is 0.68%. The probability of re-trigger is 1.43%.
• The maximum winning in the usual spins with a bet of 1 coin per pay line is 7500 coins. 22,500 coins - during free spins. The total winning is 45 750 coins.

The hidden parameters and settings of the slot (data from testing)

• The frequency of falling of the bonus is statistically every 138th spins (0.72%). Note, that this number shows the triggering and does not show how many scatter symbols will be involved. Same for retriggering of the feature.
• The probability of a hit (any winning) is 41,12%. Here you will see a lot of small winnings. 
• The distribution of the winnings is 50% in the main game and 50% in the bonus feature. Note, that this number differs a lot from Netent's official numbers (66% / 30%).
• The maximum payout during the tests was 395x. This is a good result for the slot with a 6.71 volatility rating. 
• The average winning from the bonus was 71x. This is a high number above the middle line. Players would see 10-20x very rear here. 
• Volatility is 6.71 out of 20 (from average to high). The maximum winning potential of Ghost Pirates slot can be released in the free spins feature via 243 lines. Usually, the player needs to catch several retriggers or hit a line hit (with the wild) of top symbols). 
• The rating of the slot machine for the wagering is 5.56 out of 10. Not bad, not good - depending on the current "mood" of the slot.
• RTP of 95.28% allows getting a positive mathematical expectation of winning at the casino.

How to win at Ghost Pirates slot (conclusion)

If you've read articles in other slot games, you know how we'll start - "Always test the slot machine in demo mode before playing for real money." If you do not want to "lose" time with demo versions, make 50 to 100 spins and determine if you want to keep playing. We recommend playing 243 lines because RTP is the highest there.

If you have had a few bonuses but are poorly paid, it is advisable to continue playing, it is likely that the next few will have good winnings. Generally, if you are not too big a fan and you have no reason to play here, we think Victorious is the better choice. For the hunter bonus, our recommendations are absolutely neutral.
