Experience the Nautical Battle Amongst the Clouds in Pragmatic Play’s Kraken’s Sky Bounty

Pragmatic Play, a leading iGaming company, has released its newest slot machine, Kraken’s Sky Bounty. It’s a pirate-themed slot where the developer’s 8-legged sea monster (Kraken) is the captain.

The developer says the pirates have had enough of the seven seas, and the battle now goes to the skies. But players don’t need to worry because the mythical creature will set the cannons ablaze and lead them to a rewarding victory.

It’s a highly volatile slot machine played on a 6×6 gameboard with up to 50 bet lines. Gamers can receive a payout of up to 20x the stake after matching pirate symbols like canons, swords, and ship wheels. Players can also find vibrant gemstones to unlock a payout of up to 3x the stake.

Captain Kraken himself can appear as the game’s wild, substituting all paying icons on the reels. Of course, this can help gamers form even bigger wins on the playing board.

But those are not the only rewarding symbols players can find in the high clouds. During the slot’s base rounds, the game can randomly mark a 2×2 up to 6×6 field. Then, if a wild icon lands on any of these spots, it will expand to cover all the marked areas in the grid.

That’s not all. The enlarged wild will receive a multiplier according to the number of wilds landed. This means landing multiple wilds will lead to bigger multipliers. The game will then add the expanding wild multiplier to any winning spin that passes through it.

The free spins mode begins when you hit 3+ scatter symbols. Besides rewarding you with six bonus spins, landing 3, 4, 5, or 5 scatters can come with an instant payout of 0.12x, 0.4x, 1.2x, or 4x, respectively. In addition, the marked fields will appear on each of your subsequent bonus spins, starting with a 2×2 and increasing in size as you collect more scatters.

You will receive two additional free spins for every three scatters you capture in the bonus rounds. If this happens, the playing field’s size will increase to 6×6. You won’t get additional scatter symbols once you’ve completed the fourth upgrade.

Players can also explore the Ante Bet feature, allowing them to pay an extra 20% to boost their odds of unlocking the bonus rounds. They can also pay 100x the bet to land 3+ scatters on a base game spin and unlock the bonus rounds immediately. However, these two features are unavailable in the branded slot in jurisdictions like the UK.
