The wombat says: Top o’ the morning to you, this chirpy slot is inspired by lucky Leprechauns and all things Irish, would you believe?
Even though I haven’t set foot on the Emerald Isle myself (too rainy for my liking, after all, I am a wombat, not a platypus) I do appreciate a freshly pulled pint of Guinness so I guess there might be some Irish in me after all…but then again, I also like tacos, so I’ve a Mexican side too (hmmm, reminds me of Taco Brothers Saving Christmas ).
The Lucky Leprechaun slot- now to the game itself!
Look and Feel
With five reels and thirty pay-lines, there’s more action in this slot than at your average folk night down the local Irish boozer.
Meet the lucky leprechaun who is watching over your reels who joins our list of mythical creatures (check out the Fairies Forest slot machine for some even smaller ones).
We do love an Irish slot (don’t worry, we have a serious collection from the Finn and the Swirly Spin slot machine, to Irish Eyes to Slots O’ Gold, we’re an emerald-green-friendly site). Lucky Leprechaun is one of our favourites.
The wee fella himself might as well have stepped straight out of a St Patrick’s Day parade: complete with green hat & suit, smoking pipe and ginger goatee.
This jolly fella will comment on the game’s action with cheeky banter and some infectious chuckles, which all adds to the craic in this slot. The background music is decent too, giving your game play a fiddle dee-dee feel.
Yes, those violins will transport you right to the misty coast of Donegal.
Game Symbols
Microgaming make some lovely looking slots (just try out the King Tusk slot game if you don’t believe me) and this Irish themes game is no exception- it’s very easy on the eye.
Among the game’s symbols you’ll find the Leprechaun himself, the fiddle, the Leprechaun’s smoking pipe and three pints of Guinness. Then there’s the usual 10, J, Q and K that make up your lower-paying symbols.
Your Wild in this game is the Lucky Leprechaun game logo, which substitutes for every symbol except for the Scatter or Bonus symbols. The pay-lines are fixed, which is perfectly fine for slot wombats like my good self, as I hardly fiddle around with those lines – I just wanna get straight to the action!
Lucky Leprechaun Scatter and Free Spins
It takes only one golden coin to trigger the Free Spin feature, which is a nice touch. You start off the Free Spin round with a win multiplier of 2x, but those random clover symbols will start to award you either more Free Spins or even higher multipliers as you progress.
Cheers to that! It’s going to get very dizzy…
Trail O’ Fortune Bonus
No Irish or Leprechaun-themed slot would be complete without a legendary Pot of Gold.
If you manage to scoop three or more of these lucky symbols anywhere on the reels, you’ll be given a shot at the Trail O’ Fortune bonus.
Here, you will spin the Wheel of Fortune to advance on the Leprechuan’s path to many riches, you lucky little fella or lassie.
The more Pot of Gold Bonus symbols you managed to get on the reels originally, the more shots at the wheel of Fortune you’ll get.
And if you manage to scoop the Pot of Gold at the end of the trail, you’ll be rewarded with 1000x your bet.
Conclusion
We very much enjoyed this little gem of a slot. OK, the Lucky Leprechaun slot might look a little dated by today’s standards but it does have a (stout) barrel full of extra features.
It’s a Games Global title like the Around the World slot game: give it a try and may the luck of the Irish be with you!
This game is no longer available at Wombat Casino. Sorry about that chaps! If you like an Irish luck themed game why not have a spin on Amazing Link Riches slot instead?
