Caribbean Buccaneers of 1717 Features

The game centers around the Treasure-Quest feature, which can trigger one of five bonus games. Watch for Map Pieces on reels 2, 3, and 4. Collecting all three starts the feature.

A random unvisited island is chosen, and its bonus is triggered. Then, it's randomly decided if you win the treasure. If not, the island is marked as 'visited'. Otherwise, a win is given, and all islands are marked 'unvisited' again. The islands are:

• Kingston - randomly awards 3 to 5 duels. Collect your win or proceed to the next duel for a chance at a bigger prize. Possible prizes range from 1x to 50x your bet.
• Havana - awards 10 free spins with extra Wild symbols. They stick to the reels for the remainder of the feature.
• Tortuga - awards 10 free spins with extra Wild symbols, which transform visible pirate symbols into Sticky Wilds. Certain combinations award +3 extra spins.
• Cayman Island - awards 14 free spins with extra Wild symbols and a win Multiplier. Each Wild increases the multiplier by +1x, up to 25x. The multiplier decreases by -1x when no Wilds appear.
• Crooked Island - awards 14 free spins with extra Wild symbols. A Wild on the middle reel expands to cover it and removes the lowest card symbol. Each elimination awards +1 additional spin.

The Gamble feature is offered after each win in the base game. The Card Gamble requires guessing the color of a face-down card to double the win. The Ladder Gamble involves climbing up or down the ladder to increase winnings.
