This is a 5-reel video slot based on Irish fairytales and legends. On the reels, there are leprechauns in a green buckled top hat and green pointed shoes, a rainbow that marks the place where a golden pot is buried, a four-leaf clover and other themed symbols including traditional poker card values. Irish Eyes offers a standard set of features such as wilds, scatters and free spins but there is also an on-reels “pick bonus” that adds some variety to the gameplay.

The 25 paylines are not fixed; you can choose any number of them to activate. A bet per line is changed from the one-cent minimum to $5 by clicking the “+” and “-“ buttons near the BET indicator, and this is a somewhat unusual approach for Microgaming, though it’s not misleading at all. The minimum and maximum bets in the slot are $0.25 and $125 per spin.

The Green Leprechaun symbol, the highest payer, awards if even one lands on a line, and its payouts range between x2 to x10,000, or up to $50,000 on the top stake.

Bonus features

Leprechaun is a wild symbol. It substitutes for all non-feature images and pays a fixed jackpot if five land (see above). Besides, hitting Leprechaun on reels 1 and 5 at a time activates an instant-play Pick Me bonus where you must choose one of the two triggering leprechauns that would reveal a coin award with the maximum of x100 a total bet.

A red-haired lady with charming green eyes is a scatter symbol that triggers free spins if it appears left to right, not in any position. You will earn exactly 12 free spins on any number of triggering scatters, at all wins tripled. Besides, five scatters pay x100 times a total stake ($12,500 at max).
