Shamrock-n-Roll Slot Review
Slot game makers absolutely love leprechauns don’t they? These lucky little chaps who have always been quite handy at finding pots of gold are back in ‘Shamrock ‘n’ Roll. This is a game from Nektan who continually come up with some great games to play.
This can be played on your PC or if you want, take it out with you and play it whenever and wherever you want on our smartphone and tablet. The Celtic themed game really is bright and cheerful, you might even need to wear sunglasses when looking at the screen.
In the back drop to the reels we have a green field with a rainbow in the sky and a pot of gold. It can’t really get much more Irish unless it has Rory McIlroy teeing up a golf shot while having a chat with Graham Norton.
This is a five-reel game that has 25 paylines for you to try and win some money on. Those paylines aren’t fixed so you have to decide just how many to activate for each spin of the reels. The maximum you can pay to play is £1250, that’s really one for the high rollers. Those of you not so willing to gamble such high levels can just activate one payline if they want to and spend just £0.01 on each spin of the reels. That won't help get too many wins but with the way the bonus game works here you can still trigger that playing just a penny a game.
Symbols in the game include a four leaf clover, a pot of gold coins, a lucky horseshoe and a golden harp. There’s also the Ten to Ace playing symbols that fit in with the theme by being golden and they are the lower value symbols here as usual.
Look out for Wild symbol which is the leprechaun. He has the ability to substitute for other symbols in the game to get you some handy winning combinations. Always useful if frustratingly you end up one symbol short of a winning combination. You can’t have everything though because the wild can’t substitute for the free spins symbol.
This isn't the most complex game out there but it's still a good idea to have a look through the paytable. That way you can find out all about the game. Have some free games too and get used to playing the game before risking your real cash balance.
Bonus Games
There's only the one bonus game here and it's a free spins one. Three of the free spins symbols bring you a minimum of 15 spins you won’t have to pay for. It’s also possible to re-trigger the free spins if those symbols keep on making appearances in the required numbers. It's important to note that the triggering symbols don't have to be on an active payline so if you don't want to activate them all you're still in with a chance of getting into the bonus game.
Conclusion
Irish leprechauns ought to get an agent you know and get some commission for their inclusion in all these games. This is a fun game to play, the Irish soundtrack won't drive you round the bend and the free spins can definitely get you some good wins.
