Dark Waters Power Combo Slot Review

Dark Waters Power Combo Slot Overview

Dark Waters Power Combo takes players across the Seven Seas in search of riches and glory. This pirate-themed slot was released in early 2024 by popular online casino game provider Just For The Win. It is played across six reels and four expanding rows, which can provide up to 46,656 paylines in the bonus round. There’s also a Free Spins Bonus that can allow you to win big with a max win of up to 5,000x.

Dark Waters Power Combo may not be reinventing the wheel, but it does a great job of creating a refined version of what we have already seen before. Top-quality graphics and audio do a great job of immersing you into this pirate-themed slot, with the various bonus features providing a nice level of variety. The most unique of these features is the Giant Reels Free Spins. However, the fact that it is possible to combine all three features into one bonus round is the definite highlight. Some players may be put off by the high volatility gameplay and the fact that a max win of 5,000x may be on the small side as many competing slots are able to offer double that or even more.

Dark Waters Power Combo Slot Features

Wild Symbols

The Scroll symbol acts as the game’s Wild, substituting for regular symbols to help form even more winning combinations

Money Symbols

Coin symbols with money values attached to them can land on the grid at any time. They also come with multiplier values ranging from 1x to 10x your stake, or a Mini, Minor, Major or Mega jackpot prize.

Collect Symbols

The Collect symbols land exclusively on the sixth reel. If one lands at the same time as money symbols, the value is collected and added to your winnings.

Dark Waters Power Combo Slot Bonus Features

dark waters free spins unlocked — Free spins unlocked

dark water free spins bonus — Free Spins Bonus

There are three different Free Spins Bonuses available, each of which corresponds to its own coloured Token symbol. Landing on at least one of these Token symbols during regular gameplay will give you a chance to trigger its corresponding chest located at the top of the screen.

Landing on different coloured Tokens in the same round will lead to multiple free spin features being triggered at the same time. In each round, players start with 10 free spins. However, additional free spins can be credited by landing on Token symbols that were not used to activate the bonus round.

Giant Reels Free Spins

Purple Tokens represent the Giant Reels Free Spins, which expands the grid to a 6x6 format for the duration of the round. This also comes with the added feature of 46,656 paylines rather than the base game’s 4,096 paylines.

Multi-Collect Free Spins

Multi-Collect Free Spin rounds are triggered by the Red Token symbols. This provides more potential for win multipliers as the special Collect symbol will activate all Money symbol win multipliers when landed on.

Golden Reel Free Spins

Each spin during the Golden Reel Free Spins will cover a reel with Money symbols. This will happen on reels two to five for every spin.

Our Verdict It is always good to see a slot dedicate itself to multiple different bonus rounds. The fact that Dark Waters Power Combo gives players the potential to unlock all three bonus features at the same time certainly adds to the thrill of landing on those Token symbols. With that being said, it seems that the Giant Reels Free Spins is the one to look out for, as it provides more potential for winning rounds. Also, the fact that bonus rounds only have a chance of being triggered when landing on a Token symbol does provide some uncertainty as to what those chances are.

Dark Waters Power Combo Slot RTP & Volatility

RTP	Variable RTP	Volatility
96%	No	High

With a Return to Player (RTP) percentage of 96%, Dark Waters Power Combo sits comfortably within the industry standard. However, the high volatility may put some people off. High volatility games tend to pay out less frequently but with higher win amounts over low volatility games. The volatility of games comes down to preference, and it is up to you to decide whether you are comfortable with expecting fewer but larger wins.

Our Verdict The RTP of Dark Waters Power Combo sits around the industry average so it gets a pass mark. The high volatility can put some people off; however, a hit frequency of 26% is still less volatile than other high-volatility slots. This makes Dark Waters Power Combo very inoffensive in these regards, as it doesn’t sacrifice its RTP or volatility for the various bonus features available.

Dark Waters Power Combo Slot Graphics & Audio

Graphics

Dark Waters Power Combo features a dark and brooding pirate theme. The higher-paying symbols all fit into this theme, with anchor, knife, and pirate hat symbols all rendered in high quality. The pirate treasure cove background sets the mood perfectly and contrasts well with the colourful graphics shown on the reels, like the Token symbols and their corresponding chests that light up with fire effects. Animations are highly fluid, and it shows that Just For The Win has put extra effort into the presentation of this slot.

The background music is also a standout, with adventurous motifs that ramp up in excitement during winning rounds. It is very reminiscent of something you might hear in Pirates of The Caribbean. There are also special sound effects when landing on certain symbols, such as the Money symbols. You can adjust the volume settings of the slot by clicking on the menu icon represented by three dots on the right side of the game screen.

Our Verdict Both the graphics and audio set a high standard for any future releases by Just For The Win.

It is clear to see that Dark Waters Power Combo is a modern release just by opening the game up.
