Special Symbols
Wild – The Wild symbol is “Larry the Leprechaun”, which will substitute for all other symbols, including the Gold and Silver Coins but will not contribute to filling up spaces in either of the Bonus meters. The Wild symbol is also the most valuable symbol in the game.
Gold Coins – When a Gold Coin appears on the reels it will fill up the corresponding space on the Gold Coin meter. Once that meter is full you need to wait until to land a spin containing at least 5 Gold Coins to trigger the 16 Gold Coin Bonus Spins.
Silver Coins – When a Silver Coin appears on the reels it will fill up the corresponding space on the Silver Coin meter. Once that meter is full you need to wait until to land a spin containing at least 5 Silver Coins to trigger the 16 Silver Coin Bonus Spins.
Magic Sack – When a Magic Sack Symbol appears on the reels it will remove Silver and Gold Coins from their corresponding meters, place then in that Sack, before the Sack, now filled with Coins is added to the Sack Meter. Once that meter is full you will earn 8 Magic Sack Bonus spins.
Features
Locked Symbols – After every spin you have the chance to lock as many symbols in place as you want to for another spin. It is important to note that the additional spin is not free and costs the same as the original spin. If you land 6 identical symbols (including Wild combinations) the game will automatically highlight them for you but you do not need to use their suggestions. If you land 8 symbols on the first spin and trigger a win then you are guaranteed to win again with the next spin as you can lock those winning symbols in place.
Leprechaun’s Bonus Spins – These are the spins that are triggered when you fill the Gold Coin meter and then land the required 5 Gold Coins. When this happens any Gold Coins that you trigger the feature with will turn Wild and stick on the reels for the remainder of the Bonus Spins. You get the same number of Spins as there are Gold Coins in the meter, and you can see them disappear with each of the Bonus Spins. Any additional Wilds that are drawn will remain in place too. At the end you are not paid out for Wild combinations with other symbols, so you are essentially trying for as many Wilds as you can.
Free Spins Bonus – There are the spins that are triggered when you fill the Silver Coin meter and then land the required 5 Silver Coins. During the feature no Gold Coins, Silver Coins or any Magic Sack symbols will occur and you cannot lock symbols in place as you get no additional paid spins. All Wild symbols that are drawn remain locked in place and you have to wait until the end to receive a Wild payout.
Magic Sack Bonus – When you trigger this feature you will be given 8 Free Spins, as indicated by the number of Magic Sack symbols in the meter. On every spin during the Magic Sack Bonus 5 random symbols will be turned into Wilds and before the Spins begin one Low paying symbol is chosen to become Wild every time it lands. Additionally, every sack symbol that you land will turn into a Wild symbol.
Gamble – Once you have landed a winning payline you can choose to gamble your winnings in an attempt to double them. When this happens you will have to choose between red or black cards, trying to guess colour will be pulled from the pack. Guess correctly and you double your bet. Get it wrong and you lose the lot.
