Are you feeling lucky today? If not, you might want to try out Wild Wild Riches, because it is a video slot that has plenty of symbols of good fortune in it, along with the proverbial “luck of the Irish”.
The game creators at Pragmatic Play have put together all the imaginable stereotypes about the Irish in this title, from pints of beer with four-leaf clovers on them to green leprechaun hats and golden horseshoes. Let’s see if all these can actually bring about some luck!
Theme
The reels are sitting on some nice-looking wooden boards painted in green, while in the background we can see a beautiful farm with green grass all around and white fences spanning across its borders. A green hat full of golden coins is sitting on a tree stump, waiting for someone lucky enough to find it.
The Irish tune that is playing in the background is quite pleasing, it induces a calm and relaxing atmosphere while the animations that play when you hit winning combos are quite nice as well.
Betting Options and Functions
This slot has a rather unusual grid, there are 5 reels in it but the first two have 3 rows each while the following three have 4 rows apiece. There are 576 ways to win in this game, you will need at least three matching symbols on adjacent reels from left to right to get a prize.
The betting range starts at 25 cents per spin, and the high rollers can go up to at most 125 dollars on a single roll. This is a high-volatility game, with a return to player percentage that sits quite above industry average at 96.77.
Features
The Wild symbol in this game can only appear on the first two reels, but it will replace any of the other icons in the game to help you form those winning combos. There’s also a Bonus symbol, the Green Hat, and that can only appear on the third reel.
When you get the perfect combination of two Wilds on the first two reels and a Bonus symbol on the third, you will be rewarded with 10 Free Spins! The free rolls come with more Wilds and Money symbols on the reels, giving you more chances to hit big wins!
The Money symbol can only appear on reels 3, 4 and 5, they are pots of golden coins with monetary values attached to them. They can’t give you any wins by themselves though, they need to be combined with two Wilds on the first two reels.
When that happens, you will get to collect the sum of the values that are attached to the Money symbols. Moreover, these icons can lead you to one of the three jackpots that are up for grabs!
You can increase your chances of triggering special features with the help of the Ante Bet, that option increases the bet multiplier by 20% for a better chance of landing those Wilds on the first two reels.
Conclusion
Wild Wild Riches is an enjoyable video slot from iGaming company Pragmatic Play, offering a nice gameplay atmosphere along with a tempting Mega Jackpot worth 500 times the stake. The graphics are nice and crisp and the soundtrack is not bad either, you could become quite relaxed while playing this game.
However, the features are a bit complicated and not so easy to trigger, even with all the lucky charms that are scattered around the screen. Nevertheless, it should be an entertaining game to play if you like the theme, so may the luck of the Irish be with you!
