Theme and Graphics
The game’s pirate theme has a touch of the gem-mining genre about it too. We can only imagine that this pirate has found himself on an island where he has to dig deep to find the treasure. The reels and background are made up of orange and brown stone respectively. The reels contain a range of brightly coloured gems and precious stones. This includes an amethyst, ruby and diamond as well as the playing card digits 10 - A, cut themselves from precious gems. You’ll also spot some more pirate-y symbols including pistols, beer tankards and a treasure chest.

Anchors Away Bonus Features
Free Spins and Respins
The appearance of a Treasure Chest Free Spins symbol will cause it to remain in place and trigger a respin. If no new treasure chests appear in the respin the game will return to normal. If after two or more respins, at least three treasure chests are held on the screen, the free spins feature will start. It will only start when no new treasure chests appear. The number of free spins you will then play depends on the number of treasure chest symbols that have collected in the reels, as follows:
3 Treasure Chests = 3 free spins
4 Treasure Chests = 8 free spins
5 Treasure Chests = 5 free spins
6 Treasure Chests = 10 free spins
7 Treasure Chests = 12 free spins
8 Treasure Chests = 15 free spins
9 Treasure Chests = 20 free spins
10 Treasure Chests = 25 free spins
11 Treasure Chests = 26 free spins
12 Treasure Chests = 27 free spins
13 Treasure Chests = 28 free spins
14 Treasure Chests = 29 free spins
15 Treasure Chests = 30 free spins
During the free spins feature look out for any wild symbols. These will anchor in place for the remainder of your free spins.
Anchors Away Review
This game has a simple, clean-looking style with a good theme that appears to blend gem mining with piracy. A rather low RTP is somewhat jollied up by volatile gameplay and 243 (bothway) betways. Players will find they are really just waiting for the respin feature to start, because this is how you can end up accessing the free spins, where you can enjoy a max of 30 free spins with anchored wilds.
You can give the game a trial run here at Slots Temple where we host it in a risk-free demonstration mode. You’ll find other Slot Factory free play slots like Poppin’s Pizza Prizes and Reel Royalty. We also recommend taking a spin on Slot Factory's Big Win Magic slot, a 243 line game themed on the world of big stage magic.
