Blue Beard Overview
How does Blue Beard stack up? At 92.3% RTP and 250x max win, this Medium volatility slot from Belatra earns a 49.7/100 value rating.
Blue Beard by Belatra Games features a 5x4 reel layout with 40 fixed paylines, where bets range from 0.40 to 20 or higher depending on coin values up to 50 per line. The wild symbol, depicted as the blue-bearded pirate with glowing yellow eyes, substitutes for other symbols except scatters and pays up to 250x the line bet for five of a kind. Golden key scatters appear in stacks; landing full stacks on 3, 4, or 5 reels triggers free spins—4-18, 8-36, or 16-72 spins respectively—preceded by a pick screen to select a super symbol that adds extra instances during the round. A bonus meter accumulates JP points from bets and spins, filling to activate a wheel of fortune jackpot round with progressive jackpot potential. Visual style includes ornate pirate-themed designs with symbols like a red-haired lady, treasure chest, silver cups, crossed knives, and a ring, alongside royals, often stacking for multiple wins. Gamble options allow doubling or quadrupling wins via card color/suit or higher/lower guesses. Autoplay supports customizable stops. Medium volatility balances win frequency and size, though low base paytable requires bonuses for significant payouts.
