    Released on June 25, 2020, Pirate Pays Megaways is one of the most rewarding slots in the BTG catalog. RTP 96.23%, high volatility, MAX 104,400x — the second highest at BTG (after White Rabbit 2's record 133,100x, and above Wheel of Fortune Megaways' 82,700x).

Format of 6 Megaways reels up to 117,649 ways, plus a bottom bonus reel with the Wild Compass — a unique symbol that can appear on this additional reel. Stakes range from 0.20€ to 20€. Signature mechanics: Expanding Wilds (wilds that stretch reel-wide), free spins with increasing multipliers (multipliers that grow with every winning cascade, with no cap), and the Deal or No Deal style Bonus — a mini-bonus where the player chooses between the displayed cash prize or continues for a potentially higher payout (a mechanic borrowed from the TV game show).
