Game Overview

The Phantom Tides slot is a five-reel game by Realistic, featuring 20 paylines. It offers betting options from £0.20 to £5 per spin, with an RTP of 90.10%.



Expanding Wild

  • The Expanding Wild always lands as a single-position (1×1) symbol on any reel in the base game.
  • If expanding vertically creates or enhances a winning payline beyond the single wild’s position, it will expand to cover all 3 rows of that reel.
  • If no additional win is possible by expanding, it remains a 1×1 symbol.
  • Expanding Wilds do not appear during the Cursed Tide Respins.

Cursed Tide Respins

  • A fully stacked Ghost Ship Wild landing on Reels 2, 3, 4, or 5 triggers the Cursed Tide Respins.
  • Once triggered, the Ghost Ship Wild “walks” one reel to the left before each respin.
  • The first respin has a 2x multiplier and the multiplier increments by 1 on all other re-spins
  • However, when the Spirit Surge feature is triggered, the multiplier does not increment for that respin.
  • All wins in each respin are multiplied by the current multiplier.
  • A respin is awarded as long as the Ghost Ship Wild is visible on the reels.
  • After it moves off Reel 1, the last respin occurs without the Wild before returning to the base game.

Spirit Surge Feature

  • The Spirit Surge may activate before the Ghost Ship Wild moves from Reel 2 during Cursed Tide Respins.
  • The Spirit Surge is always awarded while there has been no win during the respins.
  • The Ghost Ship Wild may be pushed back to Reels 3, 4, or 5, extending respins and allowing the multiplier to continue increasing.

Spirit Coins & Jackpot Feature

  • Spirit Coins can appear on symbols during base game’s losing spins.
  • When collected, they fill Captain Blackwater’s Spirit Chest on the main screen.
  • When the Chest is full, the Jackpot Wheel is triggered.
  • Spin the wheel for a chance to win one of up to four jackpot tiers (e.g., Mini, Minor, Major, Grand).
  • The jackpot amounts are fixed multipliers of your current bet.
  • The result of the Jackpot Wheel is determined randomly.
