When it comes to three reel mechanical games, none are better than Leprechaun’s Gold slots. This game from WMS is one of the best thanks to its many features, low denomination setup, and many opportunities to win. This machine is similar to other games from WMS including: Loose Diamonds slots, Triple Golden Cherries slots, Super Easy Money slots, and Lightning Strike slots.
Hot Hot Super Jackpot Respin Feature
The Hot Hot Super Jackpot is one of the top reasons to play this game. When you make a Hot Hot Super Jackpot bet, two or more bonus symbols activate the respin feature. After being awarded for any initial winning combination, all non-bonus reels spin again. From there, you win even more money. Three or more scattered symbols trigger one of the following bonus rounds.
Free Spin Bonus, 20 Paylines
This free spin bonus game is awarded when you receive three or more bonus symbols. Along with eight free spins you are granted a 2x multiplier. The inclusion of a wild symbol in a winning combination will quadruple your payout.
If you enter this bonus round with a Hot Hot Super Jackpot wager in place, you receive 15 free spins instead of eight.
Free Spin Bonus, 9 Paylines
The nine payline free spin bonus game is every bit as exciting as the 20 payline feature. The only difference is that you only receive seven free spins to start, along with a 2x multiplier. On top of this, if you make a Hot Hot Super Jackpot wager and the free spin bonus game is triggered, you will win 11 free spins, not 15.
My Experience
Like most games from WMS Gaming, I enjoy the Leprechaun’s Gold. I play this game for three reasons: the Hot Hot Super Jackpot Respin feature; the small minimum wager; and the free spins bonus games.
Although the payouts in my experience have never been huge, they tend to come often. The Respin feature will keep you on the edge of your seat, and many times will result in a bonus. Although, it is a bit of a disapointment when it does not. Once you’ve hit the bonus, the 2x multiplied payout can make it worth your while, although there are occasions it has paid very little on a bonus. That said, this game is definitely worth playing.
