Game Overview
For me, there are just a few software providers you can be relatively confident that each new release will be great. Push Gaming, through its back catalogue of highly popular slot games, falls firmly into that camp. In fact, I can’t think of many slots from the developer that I have not enjoyed in some capacity whilst spinning the reels on them. With that in mind, you can understand my excitement when I discovered Push Gaming has another new release making its debut at online casinos. Shamrock Saints is an Irish luck-themed slot with a 10,000x max win, high variance, and 96.30% RTP. It is played out across 5 reels and 4 rows, which offer 20 paylines.
As for the bonus features, you’re in for a treat, as Shamrock Saints has more than you can wave your luckiest four-leafed clover at. There’s a Mystery Symbols and Nudge & Reveal feature, Leprechaun Reveal feature, Chest feature, and two free spins bonus games. Plus, if you’re playing from a jurisdiction that allows the facility to feature buy, you can utilise a buy bonus option to get instant gratification and trigger the game’s best features with a click of a button.
If this sounds like a video slot you’d enjoy, why not enjoy a few spins via the Shamrock Saints slot demo below? As well as showcasing what the game has to offer, it might tempt you into booking a cheeky little weekend away in Dublin.
Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
While the title suggests Shamrock Saints is another game with your typical Irish theme, Push Gaming has ensured it is anything but your usual luck slot. The Leprechauns in this title are not the friendly type you’re probably used to seeing, and in fact, the symbols aside from the shady Leprechauns are knives, Molotovs, bats, and knuckle dusters. These are leprechauns you shouldn’t mess with. If that goes against what you want from an Irish-luck-themed slot, perhaps stick to friendlier slots such as Inspired Gaming’s Leprechaun’s Lucky Charms, Play’n Go’s Leprechaun’s Vault, or SG Gaming’s legendary Rainbow Riches slot.
Moving on in Shamrock Saints, it’s time to check out the symbol payouts on this slot. The Wild symbol tops the list, paying 50x the stake for a 5-symbol combination. The Red, Purple, Green, and Blue leprechauns will reward you 40x, 15x, 5x, and 4x, respectively, for a winning combo of six, whilst the Knife with Knuckle Duster and Baseball Bat with a Horseshoe returns 1.5x. Finally, The Hat and Molotov Cocktail symbols complete the paytable and share equal pays of 1x bet for a winning combo of five.
Wrapping up this section, we find ourselves at the bet selection of the game, where players can get involved for as little as €0.10 a spin, with the maximum stake reaching a mind-blowing €100.
Base Game & Modifiers
Shamrock Saints video slot is played across a 5×4 reel formation, and to pull in the wins, you must land at least three matching symbols across one of the active 20 paylines. The first symbol must land on the first reel, with subsequent matching symbols landing on consecutive reels.
Mystery Symbols & Nudge & Reveal Feature
Mystery symbols are present in stacks of four and can land during the base game and the free spins bonus. When this happens, they trigger the Nudge & Reveal feature. The symbols reveal either regular symbols, wild symbols, or Golden leprechauns. At the start of the next spin, the Mystery symbols nudge down one position. This process continues until all Mystery symbols have dropped off the reels.
Leprechaun Reveal Feature
If the above Mystery symbols reveal Golden Leprechaun symbols, the leprechaun Reveal feature triggers. Each Golden Leprechaun symbol will spin through various prizes before stopping randomly on one of them. The prizes available are:
- Instant Wins of between 1x and 2,500x the stake.
- Multipliers of between 2x, 3x, 5x, or 10x that apply to all Instant Prizes and Collector symbols in view.
- Collector Symbols, which collect all instant prizes and other collector symbols.
- Scatter symbols can help trigger the free spins bonus.
- Chest symbols which trigger the chest feature.
Chest Feature
The chest feature is triggered if the Chest Symbol lands on the reels during the base game, free spins bonus, or Shamrock Mode. This is a simple pick me game that gives you a random prize. Just select one of five chests to unlock the prize within. You can receive Golden Reveal prizes, the free spins bonus, multipliers of your stake, or a level increase for the collectable tokens feature. If triggered in the free spins bonus, you can win most of the previously mentioned prizes, an increase to the global multiplier or an extra Mystery Reel.
Shamrock Saints Slot Bonus Features
As you can see, Shamrock Saints already offers many features in the base game. However, there’s more, as you can trigger two free spin bonus games. The standard free spins game will trigger when you land three or more scatter symbols anywhere in view or via the Leprechaun Reveal feature. As for the Shamrock Mode free spins, you first need to collect enough tokens.
Free Spins
If you land three scatter symbols anywhere in view, you trigger the free spins feature with a starting win multiplier of 1x. Four and five scatters trigger the feature with a starting multiplier of 5x and 10x, respectively. Reels two and four will hold a stack of Mystery symbols at the start of the feature. These nudge down a single position after every spin and increase the global multiplier by 1x. Additional mystery symbols can land and do the same. The feature ends when there are no more mystery symbols on the reels.
Collectable Tokens & The Shamrock Mode Free Spins
When you spin the reels, you may notice some symbols have a token in the bottom right corner. A metre/pot above the reels collects these tokens as you play. As it fills up, it will advance through 5 levels. Once on level 5 and full, the pot can explode to trigger the Shamrock Mode free spins bonus. This is a free spins feature with a 10x multiplier applied to wins received. Mystery stacks are also nudged up for three positions.
Bonus Buy
Utilising the bonus buy menu on Shamrock Saints will allow you to buy any of the following.
- 3 Scatter Free Spins: 57.5x the current bet.
- 4 Scatter Free Spins: 113x the current bets.
- 5 Scatter Free Spins: 184x the current bet.
- Random Scatter Free Spins: 100x the current bet.
- Leprechaun Reveal with 20 Golden Leprechauns: 307x the current bet.
Pros
- A ton of fun features to explore.
- It's a grittier leprechaun theme than is usually found.
Cons
- A max win of 10,000x is smaller than on other recent Push Gaming slot games.
Shamrock Saints Slot Review Final Thoughts
I said at the beginning that Push Gaming rarely releases a dud, and it seems I’ve been proven correct once again. Shamrock Saints delivers fantastic gameplay, is jam-packed with features, and looks great whether you play on desktop or mobile. To conclude, if you were a fan of the Razor Returns slot and Boss Bear, you'll love this one, too.
