Pirots 5 Takes ELK Studios’ Birds Into a Cursed Temple

ELK Studios brings the Pirots series back to Earth with expanding grids, CollectR gameplay and wins of up to 10,000x the bet.

Trouble Beneath the Temple

Pirots 5 swaps outer space for an ancient temple filled with mummies, traps and hidden treasure.

The game begins on a 6×6 grid, where four colored birds collect matching gems from nearby positions. Cleared spaces refill with new symbols, allowing the sequence to continue while another move remains.

Gems can be upgraded through seven levels, increasing their value as the round develops.

Pirots 5 Main Features

Blackfeather Joins the Action

Captain Blackfeather can take control of up to four birds, turning them into ghosts and replacing their symbols with higher-value gems.

He can also collect feature symbols and automatically defeat mummies in the catacombs, making his appearance more helpful than his villain role suggests.

Traps Keep the Grid Moving

Arrow shooters, rolling boulders and rotating floors regularly change the board.

Secret Doors can rotate the full grid, while portals move birds to new positions. These mechanics may create fresh collection routes or open access to previously unreachable symbols.

Clearing the entire grid during the Secret Door feature triggers the Cursed Temple Coin Game on an 8×8 layout.

Bonus Progress Stays in Place

Three bonus symbols award five free drops. Grid size, gem upgrades and meter progress carry into the feature.

Triggering the Super Bonus adds a Cursed Treasure Coin Rain at the start of every drop.

Players can also use ELK Studios’ X-iter system, with options ranging from a 3x bonus-chance boost to direct Super Bonus access for 250x the bet.

A Familiar Formula With More Chaos

Pirots 5 keeps the series’ collection-driven style while adding more traps, board movement and side features.

It is a busy slot, but players who enjoy developing grids and layered bonus mechanics should find plenty to explore.
