Avast and heave to! Goldbeard the pirate has been sailing the seven seas and brought back treasure to share with you. This five-reel, 20-line video slot machine has more ways to win than most, including free spins, wild, and multiplier icons, and a random progressive jackpot. A wild icon can be used as any other icon to make a winning combination. One icon pays a bonus no matter where it appears on the screen. A multiplier icon doubles, triples or otherwise multiplies your win.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • Computer with Internet capability to play online
  • Internet account to play online
  • Cash to play at brick and mortar casinos
Step1
Keep an eye out for the sea dog himself. When the Goldbeard icon appears on a payline, it acts as a wild card and substitutes for any symbol to make a winning combination.
Step2
Know that Goldbeard also acts as a multiplier. Your win will be doubled if the icon appears in a winning combination.
Step3
Get extra spins to increase your chances of winning. When Goldbeard appears on line one or five, and you have played the maximum number of coins, you will get from two to four free spins.
Step4
Hope for a winning combination during a free spin, because such payouts are tripled. You can also win more free spins during a free spin if Goldbeard appears again.
Step5
Find a gold doubloon anywhere on the screen and you'll win a bonus payout.
Step6
Win big while still watching your budget. The progressive jackpot is completely random, which means that it has the same chance of being won by someone playing the penny machines as by the high rollers.

Tips & Warnings

  • Goldbeard video slot machines can be played in denominations from 1 cent to $10 a bet.
  • Each coin or credit deposited activates one of the five paylines. You can play multiple coins on each payline.
  • There are so many possible winning combinations that it may seem difficult to keep track of them all. You don't have to as the computer will light up all your wins on the screen and automatically total them for you.
  • Research has shown that video slot machines such as Goldbeard have a higher likelihood of inducing addiction in those who are susceptible than traditional slot machines or casino table games. If you suspect you have an addiction to gambling, get information and advice from the Gamblers Anonymous website (see Resources below).
