Shippy D. POP is AvatarUX's pirate-themed PopWins™ slot, combining the expanding reel engine with the ZapReel™ feature bar that sits above the main grid. On a 5-reel layout with 486 base ways to win, expanding to 15,552+ in Free Spins. The slot pays both ways, packs a 50,000x max win ceiling, and carries a 96.09% RTP at medium volatility.
If you have not played a PopWins™ slot before, the idea is simple: land a win and the winning symbols vanish, replaced by two new ones that push the reel taller. The taller each reel grows, the more ways you have to keep winning. Above the reels, the ZapReel™ bar adds extra effects to whichever reel sits below it on every spin.

Shippy D. POP drops four anime-style pirate characters onto a comic-book grid: a masked brawler, a red-glasses gunslinger, a green-haired swordswoman, and a skull-faced crew member. Mid-tier symbols are a pirate galleon, a sea creature, and a rhino. Card royals are spray-painted on wooden cargo crate panels.
The visual identity blends cartoon pirate adventure with an anime flavour that sets it apart from conventional nautical slots. Backgrounds shift between ocean and island scenery, and the colour palette leans into bright, saturated panel-art tones.
Shippy D. POP sits at medium volatility, which is unusual for a PopWins™ title. The ZapReel™ bar fires on every spin in the base game and adds effects even on non-expanding rounds, which keeps the session rhythm more active than a typical high-volatility AvatarUX release. The 96.09% RTP is above the slot average.
Bets run from $0.10 to $40 per spin. The max win is 50,000x the bet, which is among the highest numbers in AvatarUX’s catalogue.
All values are at a $1 bet basis. Shippy D. POP pays both ways: left to right from reel 1 and right to left from reel 5. Five-of-a-kind wins pay from one direction only. There are no Wild symbols.
| Symbol | 5-of-a-kind | 4-of-a-kind | 3-of-a-kind |
| Masked Brawler (High) | $1.50 | $1.00 | $0.50 |
| Red-Glasses Gunslinger (High) | $1.50 | $1.00 | $0.50 |
| Green-Hair Swordswoman (High) | $1.50 | $1.00 | $0.50 |
| Skull Crew Member (High) | $1.50 | $1.00 | $0.50 |
| Pirate Galleon (Mid) | $1.00 | $0.60 | $0.30 |
| Sea Creature (Mid) | $1.00 | $0.60 | $0.30 |
| Rhino (Mid) | $1.00 | $0.60 | $0.30 |
| A / K / Q / J / 10 / 9 (Low) | $0.60 | $0.30 | $0.20 |
Every winning symbol pops and is replaced by two new symbols, expanding that reel by one row. The chain continues until no new wins form. In the base game, reels cap at 6 rows. In Free Spins, they can reach 9 rows. Ways to win scale with reel height as the grid expands during a chain.
A three-position bar sits above the main reels on every spin. Each position displays a Feature Reward that applies to the reel directly below it. In the base game, rewards include the following;
In Free Spins, multiplier values increase to 2x, 3x, 5x, or 10x; Split Symbol creates up to 10 copies; and Synced Reel can align 3 adjacent reels and sync in both directions (available in Bonus Max or after winning the Pirate Wheel gamble).
When all five reels reach 6 rows in the base game, 6 Free Spins are awarded. Before the round begins, the Pirate Wheel gamble is offered: spin it to win up to 18 free spins, or lose the bonus entirely. Free Spins start with all reels at 6 rows, and reel progress only resets to the shortest reel height rather than collapsing fully between spins. Landing all reels at 9 rows during Free Spins awards 2 extra spins.
Three options are available at a $1 base bet. Costs scale proportionally with your stake.
| Option | Cost ($1 bet) | Description |
| Shippy Bonus | $125.00 | 6 Free Spins, 15,552 ways+ |
| Pirate Wheel | $125.00 | Gamble for up to 18 Free Spins (or zero) |
| Bonus Max | $500.00 | 12 Free Spins, 15,552 ways+, always 3 ZapReel™ rewards, higher chance of 10x multipliers and max splits |
