8 Golden Skulls of the Holly Roger Megaways Online Slot is a 6x7 reel, 117649 payline, high volatility title by Microgaming and Buck Stakes Entertainment. The game plays out against the backdrop of a dusky beach with a jackpot indicator that sits to the left of the reels. The symbols are a crew of fearsome female pirates and the Megaways mechanic randomizes your number of paylines on each spin as the Rolling Reels removes winning combos, and more symbols fall in their place. The bonus features include free spins and you can enjoy this title across all platforms.

If you land 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 skull symbols on the reels, you will receive 1.5x, 5x, 20x, 100x, 300x, or 2,000x your stake, respectively.
Free Spins
Landing 4 scatters on the reel will trigger a bonus wheel that spins and awards you 10-30 free spins and up to a 3x multiplier. Any additional scatter over the 4 required to trigger the feature will give you 2 free spins each. If 3 more scatters appear on the reels, you will retrigger the feature and gain an additional 4 free spins.
8 Golden Skulls of the Holly Roger Megaways slot offers an interesting arrangement of features but the final product could use more polish. The game’s pirate theme is well illustrated and stands with an all-female crew. Free spins are hard to come by as landing 4 scatters is a rare occurrence. The Firepot feature makes for some suspenseful play and pairs well with the rolling reels mechanic to bring you the slot’s top potential of $120 000 assuming you get 8 scatters with the maximum free spins multiplier. The game is competent and impressive for the first title from a fledgeling studio and with a few tweaks, it could be exceptional.
