Irish Pot Luck review
Irish Pot Luck is NetEnt's 2020 take on the lucky Irish theme, played on five reels and three rows with 20 lines. Every spin draws a multiplier, a random Pot Luck feature can drop extra wilds and bonus symbols onto the grid, and three Jackpot symbols open a wheel with three tiers of fixed prizes. The top prize on that wheel is 5,000x the bet, which is also the game's max win. Volatility is listed as High.
A multiplier on every spin
Each spin, in the main game and in the free spins, draws a multiplier that applies to bet line wins. In the main game the values are x1, x2, x3 or x5. In the free spins they are x2, x4, x7 or x15, so the bonus round has a higher floor and a higher ceiling.
Because the multiplier is chosen per spin, it affects line wins only. A spin with a small win and a high multiplier can still be worth more than a larger win at x1.
Pot Luck feature
During any spin of the main game and the free spins, the Pot Luck feature may activate. It can place up to 5 wilds and up to 3 scatter or Jackpot symbols at random on the reels. Scatter and Jackpot symbols can only appear on reels 1, 3 and 5. Wilds can land anywhere and substitute for every symbol except scatters and Jackpot symbols.
Free Spins
Three scatters in the main game award 10 free spins. Three more scatters during the round award 10 extra spins. The spin multipliers in the round are x2, x4, x7 or x15.
Jackpot Wheel
Three Jackpot symbols in the main game or in the free spins activate a wheel with three tiers. It is covered in the next section.
Inside the Jackpot Wheel
The wheel has three tiers, each split into sectors. A sector can show an Arrow, which spins the next tier. It can show a Multiplier prize of 2.5x or 10x the bet. The jackpot sectors are Mini at 20x, 40x or 60x the bet, Midi at 100x or 200x, and Mega at 5,000x.
The prizes are fixed multiples of the bet, so the wheel's value is easy to read. Because the Mega sector matches the game's max win, the wheel is where the 5,000x ceiling lives.
The numbers
The game has one RTP, 96.06%, a house edge of 3.94%. That is about $39.40 lost per $1,000 wagered over a long run. A 100-spin session costs $0.79 on average at $0.20, $3.94 at $1 and $19.70 at $5.
The max win is 5,000x the bet: $1,000 at $0.20, $5,000 at $1 and $25,000 at $5. The listed hit frequency is 30%, and bets run from €0.20 to €200.00.
Other High volatility games
Golden Wheels of Egypt lists the same 5,000x at 96.08%. Royal Nuts reaches 5,700x at 96.05%, Fruit Shop Megaways 5,200x at 96.06% and Divine Fortune Megaways 4,500x at 96.09%. Big Bang Boom and Twister both list 4,300x, at 96.07% and 96.04%. All are rated High.
Pros
- A multiplier on every spin, up to x15 in the free spins
- Jackpot Wheel with fixed prizes from 20x to 5,000x
- A 30% hit frequency
- Free spins can be extended by 10 more with three extra scatters
Cons
- The 5,000x prize needs the Mega sector of the wheel
- High volatility
- Multipliers apply to line wins only
Verdict
Irish Pot Luck offers a simple loop with a few random boosts: a multiplier each spin, extra wilds and symbols from Pot Luck, and a wheel with fixed prizes. The 96.06% RTP gives a 3.94% house edge, about $39.40 per $1,000, and High volatility fits a 5,000x ceiling that depends on one wheel sector. It suits players who prefer a light rule set with random surprises. Set a budget before any session.
