Shifting Seas

Swashbuckling is one of those slot themes that comes around again and again, yet the good thing about it is, for whatever reason, developers often do something unusual with it. FromRelax Gaming'sDead Man's TrailtoYggdrasil'sPirates 2 MutinytoFoxium'sBoom Pirates. Shoot, look at the BrandedMegawaysfranchise that followed on fromIron Dog'sPirate Kingdom Megaways. Not always, but there is something about the salty tang, warm wind on skin, or the sniff of treasure in the air that inspires certain studios to get creative. Some blue sky thinking certainly went into Shifting Seas' list of features, growing reels, rows, and ways. There's a hint of Infinity Reels/InfiniReels going in, what with the way new reels are added. However, instead of growing reels, the shifting symbols off the right side of the grid play nicely into several feature triggers. Doing things this way creates a snowballing effect which works hand in glove with the Avalanche mechanic as well. Special Wild symbols and their trio of effects add variety, and the increasing Wild Reel multiplier is the icing on the cake. Shifting Seas brings everything together to create a next-level interplay of several different parts. The loot part is taken care of, too, theoretically speaking, where wins of up to15,000x the betare technically possible, making Shifting Seas one of Thunderkick's higher potential slots. Having said that, epic Thunderkick wins are quite rare to see on social media so a more realistic aim should be around 500-3,000x. At times, Shifting Sands multiple parts might seem like piecing together scattered shreds of a map for a chance to find treasure. That may be the case, but like Ralph Waldo Emerson said, 'It's not the destination, It's the journey.' And there is plenty in Shifting Seas to enjoy along the way. Still, despite what the aphorism might say, making it all the way to Shifting Seas' ultimate destination wouldn't be too shabby at all.
