Each of the pirates has its own progressive jackpot that pays out when you land five matching pirates in a row. The Captain Redbeard jackpot is the largest of the five, with a R20,000 seed that grows each time anyone plays Fortunate 5 around the globe.

Fortunate 5 is a fixed 15 payline slot game that pays out wins going from left to right. To play, choose your bet and click on the spin button, which is designed to look like an overflowing treasure chest. All wins are instantly added to your bankroll.

• Coins and How the Bets Work: There are just four betting options in Fortunate 5, R4.00, R15.0, R30, and R60. To place your bet, choose the line bet, which is how payouts are calculated, and the total bet will be shown in the display box.
• Symbols: The five pirates, Captain Redbeard, Starboard Mary, Mad Dog McDougall, Monsieur Poisson, and Peg Leg Davies, make up the top-paying symbols. The Captain is the most valuable symbol with a progressive jackpot starting at 5,000x.
  The six low-value symbols are A, K, Q, J, 10, and 9, with top payouts ranging from 30x to 80x. Check out the complete paytable in the chart below.
• Wild: The pirate ship is the wild symbol, and it can land on the middle three reels and substitute for any regular symbol to create a win. Each time it partakes in a win, the canons will shoot off in celebration.
• Scatter: The skull and crossbones is the game’s scatter symbol, and while it doesn’t create a payout, it will trigger the Wild Waters Free Games when there are at least three on the reels at once.

• Bonus Features: When there are just four matching pirate symbols on the reels, the 2nd chance respin feature will take place. The single spin respin can only create a jackpot win. Any new wins that appear on the lines thanks to the respin will not be counted for a payout.

Three scatters on the reels will trigger the Wild Waters Free Game. Each time a wild symbol appears on the reels during this feature, it will be placed on the side of the reels and saved for later. Once you have collected five wild symbols, the regular free spins will stop, and you will receive one final Wild Storm Super Spin. All the wild symbols you collected will be randomly added to the reels and frozen in place for a final spin.

With the sound of waves crashing in the background and lively music playing while the reels are in motion, Playtech did a great job capturing the Pirate experience. The good times can be enjoyed while on the go as well since Fortunate 5 is a mobile casino friendly game.

The reels will adjust in size based on how you hold your phone, and the buttons move around slightly to give you the best mobile experience possible. There is no special software to download, although using the Casino.com ZA app is more convenient than loading the game through your mobile browser.

While it might not have the most lucrative progressive jackpots at Casino.com ZA, Fortunate 5 does give all players ample opportunity to grab some treasure with the five progressive jackpots. The 2nd chance spin certainly helps increase your odds of winning one of the jackpots, and the Wild Waters bonus feature can create some big wins, especially with the final Wild Storm super spin
