Irish Party — review

Gameplay and paytable

Irish Party is a 5x3 grid game where winning combinations pay from left to right on consecutive reels; if a line pays multiple wins, the highest is paid. The game features three progressive jackpots: Minor, Major and Grand (in the demo at a €3.00 bet their values were 30, 120 and 900).

Read from the paytable at a €3.00 bet: Wild (four-leaf clover) pays 5 = €100.00, 4 = €20.00, 3 = €3.00. Free Spins symbol (horseshoe) 5/4/3 = €3.00/€3.00/€3.00. Rainbow symbols (three variants) pay for 5–3 symbols €50.00–€2.50, €25.00–€2.00 or €20.00–€1.50 depending on the version; mixed rainbows ('any mixed') €6.00–€1.00. Ruby ring €10.00–€1.00, sapphire ring €5.00–€0.50, mixed rings €3.00–€0.20, green boot €5.00–€0.50 and pipe €5.00–€0.50.

Wild symbol (four-leaf clover) substitutes for all symbols on an active payline except the wheel of fortune, the gold and silver hat, and the Free Spins symbol.

Leprechauns Party Mini-Game

Each losing spin fills the Leprechaun progress bar; when the bar is full the Leprechauns Party Mini-Game triggers. In the mini-game the player has 3 starting spins and 7 lowest-value Leprechaun symbols placed randomly on a 7x3 grid plus 3 lives.

The symbol can also appear on a wheel: if it does, the wheel spins and then locks in place until the end of the minigame. If at least one symbol appears on a spin, the remaining spins counter resets to 3. The player clicks the spin button on each spin; after each spin symbols combine in the best possible way to form the highest total payout, and each symbol can only combine once per spin. The amount shown for each combination is the original value multiplied by the accumulated progressive amount. The minigame ends when spins run out or the grid is filled completely; the GRAND prize is awarded if all cells are filled with the same symbol.

Free Spins Mini-Game

In the Free Spins Mini-Game paytable, symbol combinations were shown with point values 2, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15 and 16 — depending on combinations of different leprechaun-themed symbols (e.g. a single hat symbol = 2 points, two symbols = 5, three = 6–9, four = 10–15, five = 16). The exact game rules (conditions for triggering rounds) were not fully visible, but the mini-game is based on the same Leprechauns Party-style reel mechanic.

In the Gold Party Mini-Game table we saw coin-amount–multiplier combinations (e.g. 1x, 2x, 5x, 8x, 10x, 12x, 18x, 20x, 50x, 100x panos) as well as MAJOR and MINOR jackpot labels, but we didn't have time to read the exact trigger conditions in full.
