Leprechaun Carol

Within the online slots industry, there are a number of different sub-genres that get a lot of attention because there are several titles in them with similar themes. The Leprechaun Carol slot by Pragmatic Play definitely falls within the holiday sub-genre, but it offers crossover with another sub-genre that's based on Irish themes and motifs. As a result, you end up with a title that has a fairly unique overall theme and concept.

From a visual standpoint, this is a game that looks and feels great. The soundtrack and falling show across a fun background really immerse the player in the experience. However, there's a ton of action and high-volatility swings that come from the gameplay itself, so it's not a boring title by any means.

Betting and Format

There's not much about the format of this game that's too far out of the ordinary. It's a 20-payline video slot with five reels and three rows, which may be the most common slot format of all time. Betting starts at $0.01 coins for a total wager of $0.20 per spin at a minimum, and you have options that allow you to change the bet size with coin size changes and the number of coins per spin. You get a ton of options for players at all levels all the way up to particularly high stakes.

Wild Rainbow Symbols

First and foremost, you'll want to know about the wild rainbow symbol with presents under it. Players will get a 50x win (multiplied by the total bet size) for five of a kind. There are also wins of 20x for four of a kind, 5x for three of a kind and even 0.2x for two of a kind. These wilds will substitute for anything but the pot of gold symbols.

Scattered Pots of Gold

Pots of gold appear on the first, third and fifth reels only. Getting all three of them on the reels at once will give you at shot at a bonus feature. However, if you get one on the first and third reels but miss on the fifth, you have a chance for that reel to be nudged one position to allow that scatter to show up and trigger the bonus round.

Two Free Spins Modes

The scatters trigger one of two free spins mode. The first has 20 free spins with 3x multipliers, and you can get extras like more free spins, extra wilds or higher multipliers. The second offers 15 free spins with a 4x multiplier where you can add more free spins or increased multipliers worth up to a total of 6x. Alternatively, you can get a giant 3x3 symbol on the reels with random re-spins that give you extra chances to pick up some serious multi-line payouts.

Randomly Occurring Features

A few random features can occur as well. You can get random 3x3 symbols on the reels that obviously help to get more wins than you would have gotten otherwise. You can pick up a raining wilds feature with a number of random wilds added to the game board for more opportunities to get paid as well. Finally, there's a Pick a Fiddle feature where five fiddles show up, and you can pick one of them for an instant cash prize. This type of guaranteed payout is a lot of fun since you don't have to worry about if you're going to hit payouts with a wild feature or similar.

Payouts and Prizes

Five of the leprechaun in a Santa hat is worth a 50x win, and you can pick up 25x or 12.5x for five of the candy cane hat or the decorative pipe symbols, respectively. The mug gets you 10x, and the purple A is worth 8.75x for five. The wins for the red K and yellow Q symbols are 7.5x and 6.25x, respectively, and it drops down to 5x for both the blue J symbol and the green 10s.

Overview

The mixed theme of the holiday season and the Irish leprechauns is a fun presentation for the Leprechaun Carol video slot by Pragmatic Play. They've shown that they're pretty creative in how they deal with the motifs of their games with this title and others, but it's the gameplay that really gets us in this particular slot.

There are three different free spins-like modes along with a number of random features. This drives the volatility up tremendously, making it almost as volatile overall as some of the smaller progressive titles. Along these lines, we suggest players moderate their bet sizes accordingly so that the swings don't get out of hand.
