John Hunter and the Quest for Bermuda Riches

John Hunter and the Quest for Bermuda Riches is an online slot developed by Pragmatic Play. It features an adventure theme with an Indiana Jones-inspired character, John Hunter, on a treasure hunt in Bermuda. The visuals are bright and colorful, with a clear view of the 7×7 reel set against a backdrop of a sandy beach and palm trees.

Slot Symbols:

The slot features a variety of symbols, including high-paying gemstone symbols (diamonds, clubs, hearts, and spades), medium-paying symbols (telescope, chalice, and ring), and low-paying card suit symbols (A, K, Q, J, and 10). The most valuable symbol is the golden relic with the word “Wild” written across it. This acts as the Wild symbol, substituting for all other symbols except Scatters, Money symbols, and Collect symbols.

Scatter Symbol and Free Spins:

The Scatter symbol is John Hunter himself. Landing 3 or more Scatters triggers the Free Spins bonus round, awarding 12 free spins. During free spins, all Money symbols (explained below) that land are collected in a bonus pot, regardless of whether a Collect symbol is present. At the end of the free spins, a wheel is spun, offering a chance to win the collected bonus pot on top of the free spins winnings. Players can also retrigger free spins by landing additional Scatters during the bonus round.

Money Collect Feature and Cursed Wilds:

Two unique features add an extra layer of excitement to the gameplay. Money symbols can land on the reels, each holding a random cash value. These values can only be collected by landing a Collect symbol simultaneously. There are four different Collect symbols, each with a unique effect:

• Collect: Collects all Money symbol values on the reels.
• Extra Credit Collect: Adds its own value to all Money symbols before collecting them.
• Multiplier Collect: Applies a multiplier to all Money symbols before collecting them.
• Extra Drop Collect: Adds extra Money symbols to the reels before collecting all Money symbols.

The other exciting feature is Cursed Wilds. Regular Wild symbols can occasionally transform into Cursed Wilds. These Cursed Wilds can either come with a 2x multiplier applied to any wins they contribute to, or they can add extra Wild symbols to the reels for even more winning opportunities.

Interesting Feature to Note:

While the Money Collect feature and Free Spins with a bonus pot offer great winning potential, the Cursed Wilds add an element of surprise and can significantly boost wins during the base game by offering multipliers or extra Wilds. This unpredictable element keeps the base game exciting and creates the possibility of big wins even outside of the Free Spins bonus round.
