Gold Hit: O’Reilly’s Riches Review

Leprechauns have always been favored in the slots world, so it's no wonder why slot studios keep producing more and more Irish-themed games. One of the latest additions to the genre is Gold Hit: O’Reilly’s Riches from Playtech's partner studio Ash Gaming, which despite a common Irish style offers quite unusual gameplay packed with numerous awesome bonus features.

It's hard to surprise players in the Irish niche since we've seen pretty much everything in the genre. With that said, there's nothing new to be found here, as the game sticks to a classic pattern and showcases familiar windswept green hills, leprechauns, and rainbows. Anyway, Ash Gaming put a lot more effort into the gameplay rather than the design, and the first thing that catches your eye is the unorthodox reel set sitting in the middle. The actions here take place across a 5-reel grid, yet each reel holds a different number of symbols, from 4 to 8, producing a staggering 4,608 winlines.

Gold Hit: O’Reilly’s Riches Slot - Reel Screen

The Gold Hit: O’Reilly’s Riches slot is available on any device, and playable from €0.1 to €350 per spin, which should suit everyone. The volatility is high, while the default RTP is 95.21%, which is lower than the average level. However, you can get even a lower payback value due to RTP ranges, so pay attention to the rules and be sure to check the paytables before depositing.

The max win is rather low though, clocking in at 2,500x the bet.

Symbols on the reels are split into two categories, namely highs and lows. A-9 royals make up the lower-pays section, and the higher lot consists of horseshoes, smoking pipes, sheep, clovers, and leprechauns. At least 3 matching symbols are needed to create a winning combination, and combos of 5 symbols are worth 1.5x your bet for low symbols and 2x - 5x your bet for high symbols. Wild symbols are also included. They can appear on all reels to substitute for any other regular symbols, yet they don't have a value of their own.

Gold Hit: O’Reilly’s Riches Slot Features

Coins are bonus symbols that contain a random cash value.

Whenever one lands anywhere in view during the base game, it locks in place for 3 spins. Any additional cash symbol landing on the same reel resets the spin counter back to 3. When a reel is filled entirely with bonus symbols, all displayed cash values on that reel are added together and paid.

Coins can also land with a Clover symbol attached to them. Collecting such symbols will award one of the four fixed jackpot prizes, namely Mini, Minor, Major, and Mega, worth 20x, 50x, 200x, and 500x the bet respectively.

Gold pot symbols are Scatters, and 3 or more of these on the reels trigger the Free Spins feature. Depending on the number of triggering symbols, you can get the following number of free games:

• 3 Scatter symbols - 10 free spins
• 4 Scatter symbols - 12 free spins
• 5 Scatter symbols - 15 free spins

During the bonus game, any cash symbol that lands on the grid locks for the remainder of the feature. Filling the entire reel with cash symbols activates the bonus wheel, where you can multiply values on that reel by up to 10x. When free games come to an end, all sticky coin symbols are paid.

Review Summary

All said and done, Gold Hit: O’Reilly’s Riches is definitely an enjoyable slot. Once you get past the basic looks, the gameplay lurking beneath is just fire, providing lots of entertainment and rewards.

The jackpots are also a plus, especially considering they are available during both the base game and free spins. In conclusion, it might be not the best Irish-themed slot out there, but Gold Hit: O’Reilly’s Riches surely falls into the big leagues.
