Bonus Features
The main bonus features on Wild Seas slot are the “2 stage” free spins bonus rounds which are initially triggered by landing 2 of the Wild Seas Scatters in the base game.
Stage 1 – Break the Convoy
1 of the 3 captain symbols is randomly chosen once the bonus is triggered, with all captain symbols transforming into this captain and a fleet of Wild Ships appears on the 5th reel.
During each free spin, the fleet of wilds moves to the left across the reels, the pirate ship on the 5th reel will attack these ships, scoring a hit will slow this ship down for 1 spin.
If you manage to break the convoy and destroy 1 ship with 3 hits during the bonus round you are then transported to the stage 2 bonus round.
Stage 2 – Loot the Treasures
During stage 2 new Wild Treasure Chest symbols will appear on the middle reels, if the pirate ship manages to hit any of these during the bonus they are transformed into sticky wilds.
This bonus round ends when you hit any of the Explosive Barrel symbols on the reels.

Overall Opinions
We found the Wild Seas slot to be a very enjoyable slot to play, the action is quite simple and quick with frequent bonus round triggers along with the excitement of being able to unlock the 2nd stage if you manage to sink any ships during the first free spins level.
Whilst this certainly isn’t the most volatile slot from ELK ( in our playtests we managed bonus rounds in the range of 10x up 75x), the gameplay is certainly good enough to warrant having a look and the stage 2 bonus round certainly offers some very decent win potential with sticky wilds.
Another decent slot release from ELK that you should check out.
