Push Gaming’s new release, Shamrock Saints, is an Irish-themed video slot that promises an insider look into the lives of a bunch of rowdy Leprechauns. The mysterious ‘Saints’ are beer-swigging thieves who have taken over the town’s tavern. However, could they be key to leading you to the 10,000x prize?
About Shamrock Saints
Shamrock Saints is played on 5 reels with 20 paylines. It’s available on desktop and mobile devices, from 1p to £100 a spin. RTP is 96.3%, above the industry average of 96%. With medium to high volatility, a top prize of 10,000x is up for grabs.
Set in an Irish town, the imagery is much more gritty compared to the green rolling hills, pots of gold, and rainbows commonly seen in many Irish-themed slots. A dimly lit street offers slithers of light shining through the windows of the houses. A beer barrel sits on the pavement outside of the tavern.
The reels contain various icons—not quite as symbolic as you would expect! The low-value symbols include a Molotov cocktail, a baseball bat, a hat, a knuckleduster, and a knife. The higher-value symbols are four devious-looking leprechauns in various colours wielding weapons and beer bottles. The beer barrel wild substitutes for all symbols, barring the scatter, mystery, instant prize, and chest symbol; more about these later.
Gameplay and Features
Shamrock Saints is a slot with seven bonus features, including Nudges, instant prizes, multipliers, cash prizes, and more.
Mystery Symbols
The pot of gold coins is the Mystery symbol, and it lands in stacks of 4 on all reels. Once it appears, the Nudge and Reveal become active. The Mystery symbols contain either Wilds, Gold Leprechauns, or Pay symbols. On the following spin, a nudge occurs, and the Mystery symbols drop down 1 position while the other positions carry on spinning.
The Leprechaun Reveal feature triggers if the Mystery symbol reveals the gold Leprechaun. Each gold Leprechaun present on the reels spins over and reveals various symbols, each offering a unique feature.
If a Chest symbol lands on the 3rd reel, it reveals:
*A 1x to 500x bet multiplier.
*All the Mystery symbols contain Gold Leprechauns
*The Golden Pot meter bumps up a level
*The free spins trigger with a multiplier of 1x, 5x or 10x
The Shamrock mode triggers, the free spins feature starts with a 10x multiplier, and stacks nudge up to 3 positions.
During the Shamrock Reveal or free spins, any chest prizes on the reels reveal various rewards
If Tokens land on the reels, they are collected in the Golden pot positioned above the reels. Once it reaches 5, if another Token lands, the pot explodes, and the Shamrock features triggers.
Free Spins Feature
3, 4 or 5 scatters trigger the free spins feature with a 1x, 5x or 10x multiplier, respectively. Once the free spins commence, reels 2 and 4 are populated with Mystery symbols, nudging down 1 position and increasing the multiplier by 1.
You can jump straight into the free spins and buy several scatters or the Leprechaun Reveal for a % of your bet. This is not available to UK players.
Shamrock Saints is an excellent slot for many reasons, including a more unique take on the luck of the Irish theme. They have chosen to run with a more sinister theme featuring Leprechauns with devious and cunning traits. It combines features from two of its popular slots, Razor Shark and Wild Swarm. Shamrock Saints could be an extremely lucrative slot once you get your head around the many features and bonuses.
