Design and Gameplay

There are 720 paylines, giving the player an abundance of winning opportunities, not to mention all the rum they can handle. The impressive number of paylines must have some equally notable symbols. The design of the higher paying symbols is impressive in its details. These symbols are the parrot, the ship, the map and the Queen herself.
