The breaker open to everyone, the jetty and pier behind a free account, and all the rules set down in writing.
Curlback Breaker is open to everyone: spin it on the home page or on its own page with free play coins. There is no name, email or password to give and nothing to tick.
For Patchsail Moorings and Bulbstring Pier you need a free account, and the form asks only four things: a nickname, an email address, a password and a tick confirming you are 18 or over. No card details, no address, no phone number, since nothing at the cove costs anything. Why have an account at all? So your coins and progress are waiting when you return, and so the games stay with adults. A single button on your account page deletes it along with everything it holds.
Your opening balance is 100,000 free coins, and anything Curlback Breaker paid you on the same device is added on top. One balance, one level and one set of missions then carry on through the breaker, the jetty and the pier. Coins are virtual and cannot be bought, sold, withdrawn or exchanged for anything; wins never hold real-world value.
You will not find in-app purchases or a payment page anywhere in the cove.
Five reels and three rows in each world. Wins are read from the first reel on the left, across adjacent reels, along fixed paylines. The stake is divided evenly over the lines, and paytable values are multiples of the line bet, apart from the scatter, which pays on the total stake. On any one line only the top win is paid.
| Bonus round out on the water | What happens in the round, wave by wave | Worlds along the cove that have it |
|---|---|---|
| Tumbling reels | Winning symbols wash away, the others slide down and new ones roll in from the top. Each fresh win in the chain is worth more: x1 on the spin itself, then x2, x3, and x5 for every tumble after that. | |
| Multiplier that builds like a swell | During free spins the multiplier grows as the round continues and does not fall back until the round is over. | Curlback Breaker |
| Respin that keeps the wilds | If a paid spin wins nothing but lands a wild, the wilds hold still and the rest of the grid spins again, free. | Patchsail Moorings |
| Last-reel respin | When a paid spin wins nothing yet lands two scatters, the fifth reel takes one more free turn in search of the third. | Bulbstring Pier |
| Free spins that pay twice over, tide in or out | The calmest round in the cove: three scatters start free spins, and every win inside them is doubled. |
A fixed strip of symbols sits on every reel. Your browser’s random number generator chooses an independent stopping place on each strip for every spin. Earlier spins never shape later ones, and nothing shifts with your balance or the length of your session.
Return, hit frequency and feature frequency for every world are found by running that game’s own code for millions of spins, then printed in its paytable. They relate only to coin play in these free games, and tell you nothing about any real-money game.
Only adults, 18 and older, are welcome at Swelltide Cove. The coins every game runs on have no monetary value; you cannot buy them, sell them, withdraw them or swap them for anything. The shack has no coin stall, the sea wall has no payment page, no prize worth anything in the real world is offered, and success here does not imply future success at real-money gambling.
