After recently expanding its audience via Livespins, online and mobile casino software provider iSoftBet has added another title to its Hold & Win series, with its new slot, Plunderin’ Pirates: Hold & Win, a high seas adventure with Respins, Booty Boosters and Explosive Modifiers!

Aided by an impressive collection of features, bountiful riches await players in this 5-reel, 3-row, 20 paylines video slot, where the pirate captain takes his place at the helm as the game’s highest paying symbol. Under the captain, there are J, Q, K and A low pays, while parrots, monkeys, female and male pirates comprise the premiums in the medium volatility spinner. Earning 4x to 10x the bet means you landed five matching premium symbols. Wilds substitute for all symbols except for gold coins.

In-game modifiers:

In order to trigger the Hold & Win Respins bonus, you’ll have to land at least five gold coins, and when you do, the game will award three initial respins. For each new symbol that lands, the respins will be reset to three. What’s more, individual Boodty Busters can appear during the feature and will activate one of the modifiers.

In addition to gold coins, there are also other colored coins that can land, subsequently modifying the round in some manner. For instance, Silver coins collect the values from any gold coin symbol on the reels; Green coins increase the value of adjacent coins, in any direction, by one cash level; Blue coins unlock up to three extra rows; Purple coins collect the values from any gold or silver coins in view and opens more positions for coins.

Each coin value that has been collected remains on the reels even after the boosters have been applied, which means the potential for sizeable awards grows at a good clip.

Raming up the excitement even more, on any spin during the base game, the pirate captain can also throw out bombs onto the reels, transforming symbols with one of: Symbold Upgrade, Wilds Add or Bonus Add, which results in extra gold coins being added to the reels to increase the likelihood of a feature triggering.

In a company blog, Mark Claxton, Head of Games for iSoftBet, commented on the new pirate-themed game, saying…

“We are delighted to finally be launching Plunderin’ Pirates: Hold & Win, bringing the thrills of an ocean adventure to the screens of our players.

“The game features three in-game modifiers as well as a unique bonus round, complete with exciting Booty Boosters, offering the fun player experience that our Hold & Win collection is known for.”

The latest release joins the online games supplier and content aggregator’s other Hold & Win titles in its wide-ranging portfolio, following recent launches Moon Spirit: Hold & Win, Crabbin’ Crazy: Hold & Win and the popular, Brilliant Diamonds: Hold & Win.

Livespins alliance:

iSoftBet also just partnered with Livespins, which combines streaming, playing together and community all in one product. The new alliance will make the developer’s online slot games available to some of the industry’s most entertaining streamers.

The platform’s growing legion of streamers are now able to use the London-headquartered studio’s content for their streams including hit titles such as Majestic Megaways and Gold Digger.

The way it works is that players choose their favorite streamer from a list of live streamers and play together with them via the platform and place bets as a group. Players choose the bet amount and number of spins. They are also able to chat with the streamer and the community and add reactions all while following a live stream and betting behind.

What they’re saying:

Commenting on the new partnership, Michael Pedersen, Chief Commercial Officer for Livespins, explained they want to provide their streamers with access to the best online slots in the market, and adding iSoftBet to their portfolio of developer partners allows them to do just that.

“We believe we have created an entirely new way for players to experience online casino but this is an experience that requires games that not only keep our streamers entertained but viewers and players also and iSoftBet certainly delivers in that regard.”

Pederson said they are “thrilled” to be working with iSoftBet and they look forward to adding even more providers to their partner list over the “coming weeks and months.”

For its part, iSoftBet, Chief Commercial Officer, Federica Faggiano, said…

“We believe this partnership will grow the iSoftbet brand strength and widen the opportunities to reach multiple players in specific markets and onto specific operators. It would be the first project of this kind for us, so we’re happy to having chosen a strong partner as Livespins to start this new journey together.”
