Luck of the Irish

There’s great debate over which nation is the luckiest, some say China is lucky whilst the general consensus is that Irish patriots are. This is where the famous phrase Luck of the Irish comes from and is the theme for this five reel video slot from Distance Gaming Casinos.

Luck of the Irish Theme

There’s no escaping the lush green color scheme which incorporates a rainbow (including a huge pot of gold), pipes, hats and lucky shamrocks on the slots background. This gives the slot a jolly feel, and whilst we aren’t sure this makes it any more lucky at least made us feel happier whilst playing it.

Reel icons include shamrocks, tall hats, pints of Guinness, pipes, Irish shillelagh, gold coins, rainbows, pots of gold, Leprechauns and St Patricks Day logos. There’s also a Luck of the Irish logo, which like the St Paddy’s day icon triggers bonus wins (more on that later).

Betting Options and More Functions

There’s no automatic spin mode but a bet max button has been included. Pressing this will spin all reels using nine paylines and your chosen bet. This is particularly handy if you are playing with less than 9 lines but want to spin all 9 every now and then.

Luck of the Irish Slot Features

The St Patricks Day logo is both a wild and multiplier. You can win by substitution using this wild and the resulting prize will be multiplied by two. This wild is capable of substituting for any other icon bar the scattered logo.

The scattered logo can award prizes from just two or more icons present anywhere on screen. This will bag you 1, 5, 10 or 100 coins when two, three, four or five appear respectively.

Our Take on Luck of the Irish

This isn’t the first Irish themed slot by any stretch of the imagination and we are sure it won’t be the last. This means it’s not strictly unique, but will at least prove to be popular; especially if it’s lucky for the people hunting down the $20,000 jackpot.
