How the Leprechaun Trail Works
The Leprechaun Trail is the core feature. Trigger it with at least 3 bonus symbols in view, and you start at the bottom of the trail. Land 4 bonus symbols, you jump to level 7. Land 5, you start at level 12. Each level holds a random outcome: either an upward arrow (climb higher) or a prize. The feature ends when you land on a prize.
What you can win: cash prizes between 7 and 5,000x your stake / 4 to 15 Win Spins (each spin guaranteed to win, with a 5x multiplier applied) / 1 to 5 Chest Picks in the Pick A Win feature (each pick awards cash). Higher levels reward better prizes. Climb all the way and crack the 5,000x ceiling.
Premium Symbols and Wild Choice
Premium symbols pay between 8 and 30x your stake for 5 of a kind. The slot lets you choose 1 of 3 leprechaun characters for the wild symbol – a female option is included, which is unusual for the genre. All 3 act identically as regular wilds, stepping in to complete pay lines. Cosmetic only, but a nice touch.
Win Spins and Pick Game
Win Spins are where the slot shows its teeth. These are free spins guaranteed to win on every spin, with a 5x multiplier boost attached. Land enough of them and the returns stack fast.
The Pick A Win feature lets you choose from chest picks, each revealing a cash prize. In testing, pick prizes ranged from 75 to 400x stake, though the paytable indicates 5 to 2,000x is possible across the full range.
If you win Win Spins or Picks but prefer cash instead, the slot offers a cash-out equal to the average win from that feature – a safety valve for players who want certainty over the gamble.
Bonus Buy Menu
Non-UK players and those eligible can buy into the Leprechaun Trail directly. Three options:
| Feature | Cost | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Leprechaun Trail | 35x stake | 3 to 5 triggering scatters |
| Win Spins | 75x stake | 4 to 15 free spins with 5x multiplier |
| Pick A Win | 330x stake | 1 to 5 chest picks for cash prizes |
The Pick A Win buy is steep – 330x stake – but it skips the climb and goes straight to the cash pick game. Win Spins at 75x is the middle ground. Trail entry at 35x is the sharpest tool when the base game feels slow.
Volatility and Payouts
This slot runs medium-high volatility. The base game is lean – most action lives in the bonus. When the Leprechaun Trail triggers, it can deliver hard. The max win of 5,000x is real, not a theoretical ceiling buried in edge cases. RTP sits at 96%, standard for the mid-tier.
