Introduction

Krawk Island is well-known for its pirates, who sail the seas of Neopia in search of treasure. Black Pawkeet Slots allows Neopians, who are over the age of 13, to join in on the hunt for the Jackpot, which is said to contain large sums of Neopoints. Are you up to the task?

Controls & Instructions

Black Pawkeet Slots requires nothing more than a mouse to play. Beneath the reels are two rows of buttons. One row is "Bet" and the other one is "Lines". These rows indicate the wager that is to be made before starting the slot machine. There is a limit of 250 spins per day!

Bet- A bet of Neopoints is to be made for each line that is present on the reels. There are six betting options to choose from; 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, or 50 Neopoints. Each option determines the payout's amount from winnings. For example, less Neopoints will be earned from a bet of 1 NP per line than a bet of 50 NP per line.

The red button at the far right of the screen, labeled 'Max Bet', automatically chooses 50 Neopoints as the bet, along with 9 lines chosen. This means that 450 NP is required per spin.

Lines- There are nine different positions, or lines, that can be chosen for the reels. Each position indicates a new way to line up the icons. For example, only choosing one line will count just the horizontal icons in the middle of the screen. Choosing a larger amount of lines, such as nine, will give a much better chance of winning since there is a variety of ways to line up the icons.

The total amount of Neopoints that is to be paid before starting a round all depends on the "Bet" and "Lines". The bet is multiplied by the amount of lines that were chosen. For example, having a bet of 2 NP while having 3 lines chosen means that 6 NP is paid before each round of slots.

Below is a table explaining the payouts of each icon. Please note that the payouts are based on Max Bet since it is the most commonly used bet before spinning.

Slot	Two	Three	Four	Five
Bronze Dubloon	0	500	750	1,250
Silver Dubloon	0	750	1,250	2,500
Gold Dubloon	0	1,250	2,500	5,000
Treasure Map	50	500	2,500	12,500
Grog	150	1,500	7,500	37,500
Pirate Ship	200	2,000	10,000	50,000
Pirate Krawk	250	2,500	12,500	62,500
Treasure Pile*	500	5,000 (Bonus NP or a Dubloon)	50,000 (Bonus NP or a Dubloon)	500,000 (Bonus NP or a Dubloon)

*In addition to winning Neopoints from lines of treasure piles, they can be scattered across the reels to ensure a win as well. Having three or more scattered treasure piles at once will randomly award out 250 NP, 500 NP, 1,000 NP, or a Dubloon.

Black Pawkeet Flag- This flag acts as a wild card by being able to substitute for almost any other icon. For example, obtaining four Bronze Dubloons and one Pawkeet Flag will award 1,250 NP, just like it would if there were five Bronze Dubloons. Black Pawkeet Flags are unable to substitute for Pawkeets and scattered Treasure Piles.

Pawkeet- Pawkeets are used as multipliers, being able to potentially double, triple, or quintuple the current winnings. Different multipliers are achieved depending on the amount of Pawkeets on the reels. Three Pawkeets multiply the winning by 2, Four Pawkeets multiply by 3, and Five Pawkeets multiply by Five. Multipliers only work if Pawkeets are present during an actual win.

Treasure Chest- Acquiring five Treasure Chests in a line will award the Jackpot. The Jackpot, which is shown above the reels, is usually a large sum of Neopoints which have been accumulated over time. The Neopoints usually ranges from the hundred-thousands to the millions. Also, the Treasure Chests seem to serve as a more limited wild card. Unless the chest is at the very left reel, there must be only wild card icons, which are Pawkeets and more Treasure Chests, to the left of it in order to count as a wild card itself.

Tips & Strategy

Black Pawkeet Slots is a game based entirely on luck rather than skill, therefore a strategy for the game does not exist. However, there are helpful tips to keep in mind while playing.

It is commonly advised to click Max Bet for every spin, as the payout is much higher and there is a greater chance of winning Neopoints. Unfortunately, this requires 450 NP per spin, which can quickly drain Neopoints on hand if a winning streak is hard to come by.

Max Bet is usually good for winning large amounts of Neopoints. For those who are short on Neopoints, the bet does not have to be at 50 NP per line. Though this will make the payout worth less, it wont drain Neopoints as quickly. It is still advisable to keep all 9 lines chosen, since it makes it much more easier to obtain wins, and potentially, the Jackpot.

Extra Stuff

Along with the trophies for those who have been lucky enough to win the Jackpot, there is also a set of trophies for those who have been not as fortunate with the slots. These "Biggest Losers" trophies are awarded to users that have spent a ton of Neopoints on Black Pawkeet Slots.

Conclusion

Black Pawkeet Slots is a great way to earn Neopoints, but it also a great way to lose them as well. The addicting quality of the game can leave you playing for hours on end (as long as you have the Neopoints to do so, of course). With a usually large Jackpot to consider, the risk can be worth it.
