Play the Lucky Leprechaun Demo

Design and Animation

Lucky Leprechaun is an Irish slot from slot provider Microgaming, with a release date of 2017. This online slot uses green hills, gold coins, shamrocks, and a smiling leprechaun to create a light pub-style setting.

The slot’s graphics are relatively old but still look good enough. The reels appear uncluttered with plenty of definition between each symbol, making it very easy to see the direction of the reels.

The game employs basic animations, consisting mainly of short, flashing reels and some symbols moving as well. The sound will be appropriate for the theme with an Irish feel, but you should be aware that, with repeated spins, it may become a bit redundant.

Compared to Microgaming’s branded titles, the Lucky Leprechaun slot features a simple Irish luck theme. This makes it relatively easy to read, but it also means it lacks the visual stimulation found in many newer Microgaming-branded games.

Symbols & Mechanics

The Lucky Leprechaun combines traditional Irish features into a very basic, clear machine with pictures of green-themed objects and symbols representing good luck, and most of the machine’s value comes from a couple of bonus rounds (Free Spins and Trail of Fortune).

Symbols

All of the symbols in the Lucky Leprechaun slot machine have an obvious Irish theme, which helps when playing the game, looking at the paytable, and coming up with a simple strategy with regard to triggering the various bonuses.

Symbols

The symbols follow a clear Irish theme. That helps when you want to test the game, check the pay table, or build a simple strategy around its bonus triggers.

• Low-value symbols: 10, J, Q, K, A
• High-value symbols: boot, pot of gold, pipe, horseshoe, red leprechaun, green leprechaun, beer, hat, harp
• Special symbols: Wild clover, Bonus coin, Free Spin coin

The payout structure appears relatively heavy towards the Wilds and bonus rounds. The base game wins appear small in comparison, as feature wins make up much of the total value of the slot.

Bonus Features

Regular symbols have to compete with Wild Clover substitutes. Bonuses and free spin symbols cannot be replaced by Wild Clover. Wilds can remain in position for the entire free spins round.

The Bonus Coin will activate a Trail of Fortune Round when 3 or more are present on a payline. A free spin coin will activate free spins when 3 or more are present on a payline. Free spins can include Sticky Wilds, additional spins, and multiplier wins from clover symbols.

Below is the pay table for the main symbols in the Lucky Leprechaun slot game.

Rules and Gameplay Flow

Lucky Leprechaun online slot game with 5 reels and 3 rows, paying out across 20 fixed paylines, regardless of the stakes used. The game has an RTP of approximately 96.33% and medium volatility.

Most common bets are typically placed between £0.20 and £20 per game, depending on the number of lines played. All the options, spin, autoplay, the bET setting, game information, RTP, and pay table will be located very close to the reels.

I found the controls quick and clear. The bet menu was simple, the spin button reacted at once, and the £0.20 minimum stake makes the slot easy to test.

Our Test

Our expert found that Lucky Leprechaun stays very simple from the first spin. This section shares short test notes on its gameplay and bonuses.

I found the base game simple but quiet, with small regular wins and more value once Bonus and Free Spin symbols appeared. During my test, I triggered free spins, where sticky Wilds helped create extra line wins. The Trail of Fortune bonus, gamble-style wheel, and max win potential all depend more on feature access than base-game payout, so my strategy would be steady stakes during Lucky Leprechaun free play while learning how to play.
