Leprechaun Song Slot Review

Leprechaun Song is a video slot from Pragmatic Play with 5 reels and 20 paylines. The game was originally released in August 2018 and can be played at online casinos such as ComeOn!, Casumo or Guts.

Theme and basic information

With Leprechaun Song we get a ‘Luck of the Irish’-themed slot, which is a very popular theme among slots. You can find plenty of Leprechauns in many different slots from almost all developers out there. As such, Leprechaun Song is nothing special and indeed, we find it to be among the more generic slots available. That also includes the Irish background music.

But that’s not necessarily a bad thing. The slot still manages to be charming enough and what it lacks in originality when it comes to the theme, it makes up in great bonus features.

On the reels we find our friendly Leprechaun, who is worth 20x your bet with a 5-of-a-kind win. The green hat is worth 15x your bet and the pipe with the four-leaf clover is worth 12.5x your bet. The playing card symbols from 10 to A are worth between 5x and 10x your stake in such a winning combination, which isn’t too bad.

The rainbow wild is the most valuable symbol, paying out 40x your stake for a 5-of-a-kind win. Also, the Leprechaun already pays with only two symbols.

You can play this slot from €0.20 to €100 per spin.

A base game full of random bonuses

During the base game you can expect to see three random features on any spin. Here’s what you might get:

• Pick a Fiddle – this is a small pick-me bonus, where you get to pick among 5 fiddles, which offer between 2x and 10x your bet.
• Raining Wilds – on any spin 3 to 4 rainbow wilds can be added to the reels, more are possible. We’ve seen 15x our bet in winnings here.
• Giant Symbol – A giant 3×3 symbol can be added anywhere on the reels, which can yield good wins as well.

Free spins galore in the bonus game options

The free spins are triggered when the pot of gold (the scatter) lands on reels 1, 3 and 5. Thanks to the scatter nudge, if a scatter lands on reels 1 and 3 and is only one symbol away on reel 5, the nudge will move the reel to add the third scatter as well. When that happens, one of three free spin features will be randomly selected for you:

Giant Symbol free spins – you get 3 spins and, on each spin, a giant 3×3 symbol will land on the reels, first covering reels 3, 4 and 5, then 2, 3 and 4, and finally, on reels 1, 2 and 3.

Free Spin Picker – you start off with 10 free spins and a 2x multiplier before you are taken to a bunch of mushrooms that you get to pick for additional free spins, multipliers and extra wilds. We once got 25 free spins with a 5x multiplier here and 1 extra wild symbol here.

Coin Collector – here you start with 15 spins and a 2x multiplier. The scatter is replaced by a coin symbol, which you can collect. For every 5 coin symbols, you get 5 additional spins and a 1x multiplier. The maximum multiplier you can get is 6x, but you can keep collecting coins and receive 5 free spins for every 5 you collect.

None of the free spin features can be re-triggered.

Conclusion: A fantastic slot that never gets boring

The theoretic RTP (Return to Player) for Leprechaun Song is 96.46%, which is great value. In fact, whenever we played Leprechaun Song, we always felt like winners. The random bonuses in the base game are triggered often enough that they will keep you going until the free spins, which can take between 100 and 200 rounds. We’ve once got the Giant Symbol free spins after only 10 rounds and won over 60x our bet.

Another time we had to wait a little for the Free Spin Picker, which ended up giving us such a great start that we won over 130x our bet. Much more than that is possible, though, and even likely the longer you keep playing Leprechaun Song. Pragmatic Play may not have been overly inventive with the theme here, but the bonus features are great enough to keep you playing for a long time and it won’t ever get boring.
