CASINOS WITH Top O The Bonus in Great Britain
Review
Fans of a similar game now has an Irish Luck alternative. This game is more or less a carbon copy, except for the RTP which has been slightly increased. Both values are below the industry average anyway, and the original game never had mainstream success.
The bonus round threshold concept is a gimmick that falls short upon further inspection. Players want bonus rounds where the game let’s it hair down and runs free, not a straightjacket that effectively hinders any possibility of larger payouts. We therefore hardly think another run-of-the-mill theme is not gonna make much of a difference.
Features
The green Leprechaun hat is the wild symbol, and it can appear on all 6 reels in the base game. The wild steps in for all regular pay symbols to help you form winning combos, and it’s also the highest paying symbol by far. You win 250x your stake when you land 6 on a payline, and a full screen awards the game’s top win of 12,500x your stake.
The Leprechaun himself is the scatter symbol, and you need 3 in view to trigger the Bonus Round. You will then get to pick 1 of the triggering scatters, and this reveals a Threshold Multiplier of 20x, 25x, 30x, 50x or 100x. The Multiplier revealed becomes the threshold for your bonus round exit. This means that the free spins feature will last until you land a single spin win equal to, or higher, than the threshold you picked.
Wilds can only land on reels 2 to 6 during the bonus round, and all wilds that land become sticky for the duration of the feature. You get indefinite free spins until you reach the threshold win, so what you really want here is as many smaller wins as possible while building up sticky wilds, before hitting a big one in the end.
The Experience
Wilds tend to land in stacks in this game, and we had a fairly decent wild payout right before we triggered the bonus round. The base game play was pretty uneventful before that, and the bonus round starts at 1:30 into the 3-minute highlights video you can check out below.
Review Summary
Players familiar with a similar slot, released in mid 2020, will find nothing new here except the Irish Luck theme and a slightly higher RTP. This is a reskin job of a game that wasn’t a huge success in the first place. We get that developers want to find creative new concepts for the classic bonus round, but we don’t think the whole Threshold thing has mainstream appeal in the current format.
Since wilds cannot land on reel 1 during the bonus round, the most you can hope for is a 750x single spin win. At the very best, anything above 100x will effectively stop the feature, which means that a bonus round total of even 1,000x will be rare indeed. The base game is therefore your only hope to crack the 12,500x potential, which kind of turns things upside-down compared to most slots.
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| High value wilds that tend to land in stacks | Reskin of a similar game |
| Indefinite free spins until you hit threshold win | RTP of 95.68 % is below average |
| Wilds are sticky in the bonus round | |
| Base game max win of 12,500x your stake |
If you enjoy this you should also try:
A similar fruit-themed version of the game at hand, and it comes with a slightly lower RTP. You can win up to 12,500x in the base game here also, and the bonus round comes with the same threshold limits up to 100x.
Another Irish Luck-themed slot with a similar name. You will benefit from cascading wins, and a colossal multiplier reel at random times. The bonus round comes with extra wilds, and it’s triggered by at least 5 consecutive cascades.
An Irish Luck-themed title , and it comes with 5 reels and 20 win ways. The volatility is medium, and you can win up to 500x your stake. The multiplier road to the pot of 200x gold at the end of the rainbow never gets old.
