How the slot works
The 7x7 grid is set on a coral reef full of sunken pirate loot. There are no paylines: clusters of matching symbols that touch each other pay, then disappear in an Avalanche, and new symbols fall into the gaps. NetEnt gives a hit frequency of 33%.
When a winning cluster contains at least 3 medium or low symbols, a Clam Wild replaces one of the removed symbols before the next drop. Each Clam Wild that later goes in a cluster win charges one bar of the Treasure Trail around the grid.
RTP, volatility and max win
NetEnt lists an RTP of 96.10% and a maximum payout of 8,700 times the bet; Evolution rates the volatility as mid and also lists a 95.10% version. Open the game's info screen to see which version your casino runs. A one-point difference sounds small, but over ₹10,000 of bets it is ₹100 of expected return.
Bonus features
The Treasure Trail has 15 bars, and each threshold fires a feature:
| Charged bars | Feature | What it does |
| 3 | Anchor Drop | Removes every symbol of 1 to 3 low-paying types |
| 6 | Random Wilds | Places 4 to 8 Wild Coins on the grid |
| 9 | Mystery Chest | Turns 2 to 16 medium or low symbols into Mystery symbols, which are then revealed |
| 12 | Cannon Blast | Removes a random symbol plus all medium and low symbols in its row and column |
| 15 | Free Spins | Starts the bonus round; every 3 extra bars add 2 spins |
Free Spins begin with a Mystery Overlay: five Mystery symbols in a cross reveal a winning cluster, and new Mystery symbols that land next to it join the cluster until the round ends. In free spins the meter keeps working, and a full meter adds an extra spin.

Tips
- The meter is the game. A spin that charges bars is progress even if it pays little.
- Budget for long sessions at a small stake; reaching 15 bars takes time.
- Check the RTP in the info screen before you play.
- Do not chase the 8,700x cap. It is the ceiling, not a typical result.
