Pirate Coins 3 Chests Slot Review and Free Demo

What Pirate Coins: 3 Chests is

Pirate Coins: 3 Chests is an Evoplay release from October 2026. The setting is a sunny pirate cove: a skull shaped island with a waterfall on one side, a black-sailed ship on the other, and three treasure chests mounted above the reels. A parrot in a tricorn hat is the wild and the face of the game.

The reels are a 3x3 grid with five fixed paylines. Card ranks J, Q, K and A share the reels with compass and treasure map symbols. The real action happens in the Bonus Game, a coin round built around three chests: green for Extra Row, red for Random Multi and purple for Random Coins. Which chests open depends on the colors of the coins that triggered the round.

The key numbers: RTP is 96.03%, volatility is medium, bets run from 0.10 to 75, and the maximum win is 5,000x the stake. On top of that, four fixed jackpots called Mini, Mega, Super and Grand pay 20x, 50x, 150x and 1,000x.

How a spin works step by step

1. Set the stake. Anything from 0.10 to 75. All five lines are always in play.
2. Nine symbols land. Three reels, three rows.
3. Lines pay. Three matching symbols on a line form a win. The parrot wild substitutes for regular symbols to complete lines.
4. Coins are checked. Coin symbols can land only on reels 1 and 3. The Jolly Coin can land only on reel 2.
5. The Bonus Game starts when a Jolly Coin on reel 2 lands together with Coin symbols on reels 1 and 3. The colors of those coins choose the boosters.

That placement rule shapes the base game. Because each coin type is locked to specific reels, you can see the trigger forming from left to right: a coin on reel 1, the Jolly Coin in the middle, and then the wait for reel 3.

Symbols and the base game

The base game is simple. Five lines on a 3x3 grid means every win is a full line of three. Evoplay has not published the paytable outside the game, so take exact values from the in-game screen. One reference point: a diagonal of a queen on reel 1 completed by two parrot wilds returned 10.00 on a 10.00 stake, or 1x the bet.

Line wins keep the balance ticking over, but they are small next to the coin round. Think of the base game as the delivery system for the Bonus Game.

One habit helps here: watch the colors, not just the count. A trigger made of three purple coins and a trigger mixing purple, red and green both start the same round, yet the second opens more chests. Over a few dozen spins in the demo you will get a feel for how often a coin appears on reel 1 or reel 3 without its partner, and how rarely all three pieces arrive together.

The three chests and their boosters

Each chest above the reels stands for one booster. The booster switches on when coins of its color are part of the combination that starts the Bonus Game.

• Random Coins (purple chest). Activated by purple Coins and Jolly Coins in the trigger. During any bonus spin, two to four Coin or Jolly Coin symbols can be added to random positions. More coins on the grid means more value to collect and more chances to fill it.
• Random Multi (red chest). Activated by red symbols. A multiplier from x1 to x5 boosts the values of Coin symbols landing on the matching reel.
• Extra Row (green chest). Activated by green symbols. The bonus grid grows from 3x3 to 3x4, which adds three positions for coins.

Because the trigger involves three coins, you can start the round with one, two or all three boosters, depending on the mix of colors. That is the core idea of the game: the trigger itself is the first reveal.

How the Bonus Game plays out

The Bonus Game is a coin round. Coin and Jolly Coin symbols carry the value, and the aim is to gather as many of them as possible before the round ends. The number of bonus spins, whether landing coins extends the round, and how coin values and jackpots are paid out are all written in the game rules, and you should read them once before playing for money.

The boosters change the math of the round in different ways. Random Coins adds volume, Random Multi adds value to one reel, and Extra Row adds space. With all three active you get more coins, bigger coins and more room for them at the same time, which is the setup that gives the round its best shot at the top of the payout range.

Worked example of a boosted round

Here is how the numbers stack up at a 1.00 stake. The coin values below are illustrations of the arithmetic, not values from the paytable.

• The round ends with six coins worth 1x, 2x, 2x, 3x, 5x and 10x: a total of 23x, so 23.00.
• With Random Multi active at x3 on the reel holding the 5x and the 2x coin, those two become 15x and 6x. The total rises from 23x to 23 + 10 + 4 = 37x, so 37.00.
• If the Mega jackpot also landed, add 50x: 87.00 in all.

At a 10.00 stake the same round pays 870.00, and the jackpot plaques show the scaled values directly: Mini 200, Mega 500, Super 1,500 and Grand 10,000. At the 75 maximum bet, the Grand alone is worth 75,000.

Four jackpots

The jackpots are fixed multiples of your stake, shown on plaques to the left of the reels.

Fixed jackpots are set multiples rather than growing prize pools, so they scale with your bet: the Grand is 100.00 at a 0.10 stake and 75,000.00 at the 75 maximum. How each jackpot is awarded during the round is described in the rules screen.

Bonus buy options

The Bonus Buy button sits to the left of the reels. It gives instant entry to the Bonus Game, and you choose how many boosters to start with: one, two or all three. More boosters cost more, since they raise the value of the round.

Evoplay has not published the prices outside the game, so open the buy menu in the demo to see the cost for each option at your stake. Compare each price against the 5,000x cap and the jackpot table above. Our bonus buy guide explains why a buy does not change the long-run return and how quickly it can use up a bankroll. Note that some markets disable the feature.

RTP, volatility and bet range

The 96.03% RTP sits right around the industry midpoint. Operators may run a lower build, and the rules screen shows the one in use. Medium volatility means wins come at a fairly even pace, with the Bonus Game and jackpots providing the spikes. The 0.10 to 75 bet range covers both small and mid-sized stakes.

A practical way to size your stake: divide your bankroll by 200 and stay at or below that number. With 100.00 that is 0.50 per spin, which leaves room for a long session and several attempts at the Bonus Game.

How it compares and how to test it

Pirate Coins: 3 Chests sits in the same 3x3 coin family as Hot Hats Hold and Win, which places collectors on the middle reel. Here the middle reel holds the Jolly Coin and the variety comes from trigger colors instead. In a free demo, check four things: the RTP build, the respin count, the buy prices for one, two and three boosters, and how often each chest color appears in the trigger.
