St Patrick’s day is just around the corner, and to celebrate, we will present some of the best Irish Themed Pokies launched throughout the years.
Game providers are constantly releasing new games surrounding the Emerald Isle, available in the best online casinos. This indeed comes as no surprise since there is everything to love about the country of luck and vivid imagery.
Irish Themed Pokies
Today, we’ll be looking at four Irish-themed games, hoping to land some good Irish luck.
Irish themed pokies are showered with rainbows, four-leaf clovers, pots of gold and leprechauns. Whilst all games have a similar theme and portray the Irish culture, all the online pokies have various game features and bonus features.
Since everyone enjoys a dust of Irish luck, let us get started with our St. Patrick’s Day celebrations.
Fishin’ Pots of Gold
We are starting our Irish themed online pokies with Fishin’ Pots of Gold by Micrograming.
This video slot takes on all the features you would expect from an Irish themed game, but our Leprechaun has decided to go on a fishing spree. This twist gives Fishin’ Pots of Gold a creative edge.
Set on a standard reel comprised of five reels and three rows, Fishin’ Pots of Gold comes with ten fixed pay lines. The overall theme is fun and cheerful, where the background image takes us under the sea. You cannot have a proper Irish themed game without the rainbow appearing. This continues to add to the fun and light-spirited theme of the game. The background music also adds to this fun and cheerful aspect of this slot.
Game Symbols
As for the game symbols, the highest paying symbol is the pink luggage, which pays 20x your total bet when landing five in a row. This is followed by the green boots, which pay 10x your total stake when landing five in a row.
The best symbol to look out for is the Leprechaun symbol himself carrying a rod. This is referred to as the Collect Symbol, the Wild in this game. The Collect symbol can appear on any reels but is only active on the fifth reel. Since it’s a Wild symbol, it can substitute for all other symbols except the Free Spins and Jackpot symbols.
The Free Spins symbol has to be none other than the four-leaf clover. When landing three, four or five Free Spins symbols on the grid, you are awarded 10,15 or 20 Free Spins, respectively. For even more exciting gameplay, the grid expands to five rows during the Free spins feature, increasing the pay lines to 20.
In Fishin’ Pots of Gold, the betting starts from as little as $0.10 and goes up to $25 per spin. As a word of caution, this online pokie comes with high volatility, so you might want to reel in caution.
Golden Leprechaun Megaways
The next Irish themed game is non-other than Golden Leprechaun Megaways by Red Tiger. As soon as we see ‘Megaways’ in a title, we’re automatically thinking of the golden 117,649 ways to win.
Set in a tranquil and peaceful grove, Golden Leprechaun Megaways transports us to the idyllic home of the leprechauns. The chirping birds continue to build on this atmosphere, so be sure to leave the sound on for this online pokie.
Let’s go straight to the most exciting game feature of Golden Leprechaun Megaways; this is the Lucky Spins Feature. The Lucky Spins Feature is triggered when landing three or more Lucky Spins symbols anywhere on the reels. A new screen display will pop up, giving you the option to choose one of the three mushrooms on display. These are:
- the Random Wilds, where the leprechaun adds up to five wilds on the reels
- the Wild Stacks, where you can land up to four Wild Stacks with up a 7x multiplier, and
- Lucky Ways, which awards up to six matching symbols.
The best part is that more Lucky Spins symbols will reward more lucky spins, and it will not change your original choice of the above three features.
Winning combinations are formed when landing matching symbols from the leftmost reel. Once again, you can start betting from as little as $0.10, with the maximum bet going up to $40 per spin.
Golden Leprechaun Megaways comes with a maximum potential win of 10,000x your bet.
Are you ready to land some Irish luck when playing Golden Leprechaun Megaways?
Gold Party
Let’s try and tap into the Irish luck with one of the latest online pokie released by Pragmatic Play.
Gold Party goes all the way with the Irish theme, from the theme, graphics, and background music. This game is set on a five-reel and three-row grid and comes with 25 fixed possible ways to win and two great game features.
Moving on to the payout table, the jolly leprechaun is the highest paying symbol, paying out 4x your stake when landing five symbols in a row. This is followed by the unicorn, the horseshoe, the toadstool house, and the harp. The low paying symbols are the standard 9 to A symbols.
The Wild symbol is a beautiful golden tree awaiting to grant the player some Irish luck. The wild symbol can appear on reels two, three and four and can substitute for all symbols except the money symbol.
The Money symbol is literally a gold pot of gold. The Double Money symbol can also appear, which counts as two Money symbols. Six of these symbols will trigger the game’s bonus feature: the Money Respin Feature. This will start with eight respins, and all the Money, the fairy Multiplier symbol, and extra spin symbols remain fixed.
The second game feature is the Copy Reel Feature. If you manage to land a full-size leprechaun on reel one, it will duplicate on additional reels.
Gold Party is a fun and straightforward game, so are you ready to try your luck?
Irish Pot Luck
We’re heading back to the Emerald Isle to have a crack at winning a pot of gold when playing Irish Pot Luck by NetEnt.
This popular game is set on a standard reel comprised of five reels and three rows, Irish Pot Luck, comes with ten fixed pay lines.
A quick look at the high paying symbols, we can find the pipes, hats, harps and horseshoes. The low paying symbol consists of the heart, club, spade and diamond. All symbols are set in stone. Irish Pot Luck also has the wild symbol, which pays 50x your bet when landing five symbols.
Irish Pot Luck comes with three great game features. One of them is the Pot Luck Feature, where the Leprechaun randomly throws special symbols onto the reels. In the Pot Luck Feature, you can land up to three Jackpot or Scatter symbols which can be placed on reels 1, 3 and 5. Whilst, up to five wilds can be placed on any reel.
Next up is the Free Spins Feature. By landing three Scatter symbols on reels 1, 3 and 5, you will be awarded 10 Free Spins. Another three scatters during the Free Spins game will once again award an additional 10 Free Spins.
The Jackpot Wheel Feature
Leaving the best for last, the Jackpot Wheel Feature is the feature to look out for if you want to win big. This is activated if you land three Jackpot symbols on reels 1, 3 and 5. The Jackpot wheel is composed of three tiers. There are three jackpots up for grabs, apart from the multiplier wins. These are the Mini Jackpot which pays 20x your bet, the Midi Jackpot which pays 100x your bet and the Mega Jackpot, which pays 5000x your bet.
Irish Pot Luck comes with medium/low volatility. Players can start spinning from as little as $0.20 per spin. The maximum bet goes up to $200 per spin for those players with a higher risk appetite.
