Shamrock Miner

Hopefully, Shamrock Miner’s statistics are better than its design. First of all, we should mention that the RTP is set at 96.2%. For those who want to gamble online with real, the minimum bet is $0.12 and the maximum bet is $60 per spin.

You play on a playing field with dimensions of 5×4, although all reels can be expanded to 7 symbols. Furthermore, the variance of payouts is medium to high and you can win up to 5,000 times your bet.

So all in all, the statistics are pretty average.

Features

The fact that the playing area of Shamrock Miner can be expanded makes us hopeful. After all, Play’n Go often knows how to deal with slots like that. Basically, Shamrock Miner is all about collecting money symbols, both in the base game and in the free spins feature. Because you can earn high multipliers, Shamrock Miner’s features are very interesting.

Money symbols

Money symbols that land on the playfield of Shamrock Miner show a certain cash prize at all times. However, this prize money is only paid out if you manage to spin a wild symbol on the playfield at the same time.

On the left side of the screen you can see the active “cash multiplier”. In the basic game, this multiplier can be a maximum of x10. In addition to wilds collecting the prize money from cash symbols, they of course also function simply as normal wilds.

Free Spins

To activate Shamrock Miner’s free spins feature, you need to spin at least 3 scatters.

• 3 scatters yield 10 free spins.
• 4 scatters yield 15 free spins.
• 5 scatters yield 20 free spins.

During the free spins feature, as in the base game, wilds collect prize money from money symbols. However, wilds themselves are also collected in the special meter above the game area. Every 4 wilds provide 10 additional free spins and, in addition, the multiplier is increased by any value (maximum cash multiplier can reach x30). Also, every 4 wilds collected cause the playfield to expand by 1 row (up to a maximum of 7 symbols per reel).

All in All

If you look at Shamrock Miner purely in terms of content, it really is a solid slot from Play’n Go.

They keep the game simple and uncluttered, yet there is more than enough action. Because of the cash multiplier, which takes on a random value every spin, you can win high prizes every spin. So does the base game. We have seen plenty of slots where that is not the case. However, it is a slot machine that is very much played “safe.”

A lesser point of Shamrock Miner, but perhaps also a matter of taste, is surely the design. Although Play’n Go will say that they deliberately chose a retro design. Of course, it is more important that a slot machine has good content.
