PG Soft, a prominent developer within the digital mobile gaming sector, has released a new slot title, Dead Man’s Riches. This recent addition to PG Soft’s portfolio is structured as a 5-reel, 3-row video slot, integrating travelling wild symbols that feature increasing multipliers as a core gameplay mechanic. The thematic foundation of Dead Man’s Riches centres on two pirate crews engaged in the pursuit of a legendary underwater treasure.
Travelling wild
Within the game, several wild symbols are present, namely the wild red skull, wild blue skull, and wild captain symbols. Each of these wilds serves to substitute for all symbols other than the Scatter symbol, thereby enhancing the probability of forming winning combinations. The principal feature, referred to as the travelling wild feature, is activated when one or more wild red skull or wild blue skull symbols appear on the reels. Upon triggering, the feature awards a respin during which all respective wild red skull or wild blue skull symbols move across the reels.
A further gameplay element is introduced through the wild captain symbol, which becomes active during a respin within the travelling wild feature when a wild red skull or wild blue skull concurrently occupies the same reel position.
Free spins
The free spins feature is triggered by the appearance of three or more Scatter symbols, allowing players to select between two variations: an allotment of 15 free spins or eight free spins that include persistent wilds. This choice introduces variability in gameplay strategies and outcomes. During free spins, any wild red skull or wild blue skull symbols that move off the reels are reintroduced at either the top row or the fifth reel, respectively, ensuring their continued influence throughout the bonus round.
PG Soft’s spokesperson commented:
Dead Man’s Riches casts players off on a maritime voyage to track down a legendary treasure beneath the crashing waves.
Steer a course through seas packed with free spins, travelling wilds, and two buccaneering crews.”
