Cats of the Caribbean Slot Review

Cats of the Caribbean Slot Information

Cats of the Caribbean is a 5-reel, 3-row Snowborn Games slot set on a pirate ship on a calm greenish sea. In the base game you get 20 paylines, which rise to 30 during free spins when an extra row is added. Stakes range from 0.25 to 25 per spin, and the maths model is high volatility with a stated RTP of 96.00 percent.

On paper Cats of the Caribbean can pay up to 10,000x your bet, which I see as solid for this kind of character-driven slot. Most of that top potential is tied to the Mega Cat Pot in the jackpot wheel, while the regular paytable caps out at 10x for five wilds. Features include Wild Symbols, Scatter Symbols, the Wild Cannon, Cat Pots Bonus Game, Free Spins, and a Bonus Buy.

Symbols in Cats of the Caribbean

The symbols in Cats of the Caribbean fit the cartoonish pirate theme well. Lower-paying icons are a barrel, a hook, a bottle with a skull, a gun, an octopus, and a green parrot. Hitting five of these on a line awards between 2x and 3x the bet. Premiums are captains Claw, Catnip, and Red, together with Big Tabby, and all four pay up to 5x for five of a kind.

The Wild Symbol is a cat skull that substitutes for all regular symbols, paying 10x for a full payline and feeding the cannonball box when it lands. Scatter Symbols show a smoky skull with crossed swords and appear on reels 1, 3, and 5; three trigger free spins. Cat Pots Bonus Symbols are coloured ship wheels on reels 2, 3, and 4, and three of them start the jackpot feature.

Wild Cannon Feature in Cats of the Caribbean

The Wild Cannon in Cats of the Caribbean sits to the right of the grid and is fed by every Wild Symbol that hits. Once enough cannonballs have been collected, the cannon fires on a random spin in the base game, blasting between 2 and 15 wilds onto the reels. If several wilds stack on the same position, a multiplier builds up there, going as high as 5x on that symbol.

Cat Pots Bonus Game in Cats of the Caribbean

The Cat Pots Bonus Game in Cats of the Caribbean triggers when three Cat Pots Symbols land together on reels 2, 3, and 4. You are then taken to a simple wheel where every spin is guaranteed to pay a fixed jackpot. The four Cat Pots are Mini, Midi, Major, and Mega, and they award 20x, 50x, 500x, or 10,000x your stake respectively if the pointer stops on that segment.

I like that the Cat Pots round is quick and to the point; there is no drawn-out picking game, just one spin and you are back to the reels. In my sessions the wheel mostly dropped Mini and Midi prizes, which is expected on a high volatility slot. Hitting the Major feels rare, and the Mega Cat Pot at 10,000x will be where the absolute top wins are hiding.

Free Spins and Bonus Buy in Cats of the Caribbean

Free Spins in Cats of the Caribbean trigger from three Scatter Symbols on reels 1, 3, and 5, and the colour of the scatter on reel 5 decides which captain you get. When the feature starts, an extra row appears on the grid, increasing the paylines from 20 to 30. The Wild Cannon becomes much more active here, firing every spin to place guaranteed wilds with multipliers up to 5x.

There are three flavours of free spins, hosted by Captain Claw, Captain Catnip, and Captain Red. Claw is the lowest tier, giving 10 free spins with 25 guaranteed wilds. Catnip sits in the middle with 12 spins and 40 guaranteed wild symbols. Red is the star of the show, awarding 15 free spins and a huge 90 guaranteed wilds. All three versions share the same maximum 5x wild multiplier cap.

If you do not fancy waiting for scatters, there is a Bonus Buy in Cats of the Caribbean for players outside the UK and other restricted markets. You can pay 55x your bet to jump straight into Captain Catnip free spins, or 200x the stake for a shot at Captain Red. Given the amount of guaranteed wilds in Red's tier, I found that buy quite tempting when the balance allowed.

Cats of the Caribbean Slot Verdict

Overall I see Cats of the Caribbean as a fun, action-packed pirate story with a feline twist. The colourful animations, swashbuckling soundtrack, and different cat captains keep the base game lively, while the Wild Cannon adds welcome bursts of excitement. Free spins with stacks of guaranteed wilds feel the main draw, and the Cat Pots jackpots give long-term aim, though I always check for any adjusted RTP setting before playing.
