ARRR. 10K Ways Review

The 10K Ways series from Reel Play is kind of like the Megaways engine on cruise control, and ARRR. 10K Ways is basically a Bananaz 10K Ways copycat with an enhanced math model. The cartoonish pirate theme is lively and fun though, with salty action commentary and cascading wins to keep you going in the base game. Large payouts can come out of the blue, and the same can be said about the Cannon Multiplier Wilds feature.

The visuals are very bright and mood lifting, and as is usually the case in this series, everything revolves around the Bonus Respins feature. It doesn’t come with any jackpots in this installment, but you can win up to 20,000x your stake, which is more than 3 times the potential on offer in Bananaz. The 2 collector modifiers can be helpful in that regard, and even the base game holds a potential close to the max win.

ARRR. 10K Ways Slot Features

The premium symbols pay between 2 and 50 x your stake for 6 of a kind wins, and winning symbols are removed via the Cascading mechanic. This allows new and/or existing symbols to drop down to fill the gaps, and this goes on until you hit a non-winning cascade.

The Cannon Wild feature may trigger at random times on a non-winning spin/cascade, and a cannon will then fire 1 to 3 wild symbols onto random positions on reels 2-5. These Jolly Roger Wilds step in for regular pay symbols to help complete wins, and they come with multipliers between x1 and x5 per symbol. If more than one multiplier wild is part of the same win, the respective multipliers will multiply together before being applied.

The Bonus Respins feature triggers when you land 4 treasure chest symbols anywhere in view, and the triggering symbols become sticky on an otherwise cleared grid.

The treasure chest money symbols come with random values between 1x and 1,000x your stake, and you get 3 respins on a tally that resets for each new non-blank symbol that lands. Here’s an overview of the possible symbols you can benefit from in this feature:

• Treasure Chests - award cash prizes between 1x and 1,000x per symbol.
• Kraken - collects all adjacent values onto itself.
• Captain - collects all present values in view onto itself.

The feature is over when you run out of respins, and your total win is then summed up and paid. However, you can choose to enter the Gamble feature when the feature ends, and it comes with a multiplier trail of x0, x0.5, x1, x1.5, x2, x3, x4 and x5. You start on x1, and successful gambles take you one step to the right, while losing takes you in the opposite direction. The win chance is 1 in 2 up to x3, then 2 in 3 and 3 in 4 for the final 2 steps, respectively.

Finally, non-UK players, and anyone living in an eligible jurisdiction, can purchase the bonus round for 100x the total stake. The Bonus Buy option increases the RTP to 96.99 %.

Review Summary

Given the success Reel Play has had with Bananaz 10K Ways, it’s not all that surprising that they want to release what amounts to a reskin with a beefed up math model.

The cartoonish style is similar as well, but ARRR. 10K Ways comes with a pirate theme we enjoyed more than the monkey-centric original release. The spin pace is excellent, but underneath all the bells and whistles you get a fairly standard array of features.

Cascades keep your winning streak going with occasional multiplier wilds to boost your returns, and these can spike as high as 19,422x your stake also in the base game. This, of course, is also due to the 10K win ways, and the hold-and-win style bonus round is where you can crack the 20,000x potential. The 2 collect symbols are hardly innovative, but they can do serious damage with some high-value cash symbols present.

Pros

• Cascading wins and 10K win ways
• Up to 3 multiplier wilds (x1-x5) at random times
• Bonus Respins w/ 2 collect symbols
• Gamble Bonus Respins win up to x5
• Win up to 20,000x your stake

Cons

• Max win cap of €240,000
• Bananaz 10K reskin w/ higher potential
