A Treasure Map of Facts
Shiver me symbols, this game's got some serious depth. Captain Skull & the Squidly Seas™ dropped anchor in 2025, brought to life by the crew at Games Global, who channelled their inner pirates when designing this masterpiece.
It’s a 5-reel, 3-row online pokies game with 20 fixed paylines. That means your paylines are always locked and loaded, so no need to fiddle around selecting them – just spin and plunder. Bets start from just 0.20 credits for the cautious crew and go up to 50.00 for the high-rolling spinners. This is a high volatility game, which means you may hit dry spells like a sailor stranded at sea. But… when the wins come, they can be tsunami-sized!
The reels are lined with classic colourful card symbols – J, Q, K, and A – but it’s the shovel, compass, treasure map, and chest that bring more ‘yo-ho-ho’ wins to your screen. And don’t forget the Wild symbols. These cheeky crew members can substitute for almost anything (except coins and special symbols), helping you piece together the most lucrative combos across the deck.
KrakenTastic Features
What’s a pirate adventure without monstrous sea beasts and mysterious magic? Enter the Captain Skull & the Squidly Seas™ bonus features that bring some next-level online pokies action. Let’s start with the Free Spins – unlocked whenever a donut lands in a Kraken pot. Yep, donuts in the ocean, because even krakens get snacky. There are different variations of Free Spins, depending on which Kraken gets woken up.
Meet Squishy, the green Kraken, and Suction Cup, the red one. Both kick off with 6 Free Spins, but they’re anything but predictable. Squishy sticks to the reels like seaweed on a hull, while Suction Cup wiggles around the reels like a caffeinated octopus, moving up to three positions each spin. And once he’s gone? He might just come back like a ghost ship on a foggy night!
But wait, there's more. Tentacle Collect is the real star of the show. He lands smack dab in the middle of reel three and causes absolute chaos in the best way possible. Even if there are no coins on the reels, this slippery lad might just zap some in and scoop them up like he's shopping for treasure at the underwater market.
Now brace yourself for the KrakenTastic Zone. During Free Spins, the Captain can turn a section of the reels into a mystical zone. Any coin that lands inside, gets multiplied. This means more online pokies treasure for less work.
And let’s not forget the jackpots! There are four of them – Mini, Minor, Major, and Mega – and they're all waiting to be plundered. All it takes is for Tentacle Collect to nab the right coin, and boom, jackpot! Each jackpot win grows with the power of 1x your bet, while the Mega holds payout potential of up to 5000x your bet.
Should You Hop Aboard?
Short answer: only if you like fun, treasure & massive wins.

Between the volatile winds of high-risk, high-reward spins and the surprise kraken attacks of bonus features, it’s as thrilling as a cannonball fight at sea.
And there’s no better place to embark on this voyage than Spin Casino. So go ahead, hoist the anchor, and let Captain Skull & the Squidly Seas™ take you on an online pokies adventure that you won’t regret. Just watch out for those krakens, they're as cheeky as they get.
