Play Pots O' Luck for Free

Pots O’ Luck sticks to the classic Irish cliches: a vast green plain, blue skies, perhaps the occasional rainbow and some lucky clovers scattered here and there. The golden rim that runs around the reels in the foreground supports the command bar, which is small and quite simple.

In a nutshell, Pots O’ Luck is not the most impressive slot game you can find on the market, but one that will run easily on most machines, on the other hand. Unless you are all about top-notch graphics, keep on reading and learn more about the basic gameplay in our next section.

Pots O’ Luck is played on 5 reels with 20 fixed paylines in total, which is a very classic setup as well. Use the arrows to bet from 0.20 to 200 credits per turn and spin the reels to try and score as many winning combinations as you possibly can. Keep doing so until you hit a win, but the high variance of Pots O’ Luck made it quite difficult for us to score big cash prizes in the early stages of the game, especially given its relatively low RTP of 94.29%.

Pots O’ Luck has a rather strange basic paytable, which contains only two symbols: the game logo and a golden horseshoe, for a maximum prize of x1,000. That being said, the reels are also rich in “blank” spots, which will make it much more difficult that you might think to score wins with just 2 symbols spinning constantly on the reels. To make your own luck of the Irish, you are going to need to rely on the special features of the game.

The rare double horseshoe symbol is a wild card in Pots O’ Luck, able to only replace the simple horseshoe. On the plus side, each combination containing a wild is worth twice as much than its usual value. You might also find scattered clovers on the reels, of which you will need at least four to trigger a bonus round; pick a shamrock on the reels and an instant cash prize will be revealed.

Finally, each caravan symbol showing up on the screen triggers a free spin bonus with 7 turns on the reels and new symbols to collect. Line up the golden and silver coins to win cash prizes or find a pot of gold to land the Pots O’ Luck progressive jackpot, whose value is shown at the top of the game screen at all times.

Pots O’ Luck is surprisingly challenging, both because of its high volatility and the lack of variety in terms of reel symbols. You will end up relying almost entirely on the bonus features to score real big wins, just like we did when we tested the game. After a while, and unless you are a hard-core, experienced players with plenty of time and credits to spare, Pots O’ Luck ends up feeling quite repetitive and perhaps just too challenging altogether.

Irish-themed slot games are much more common that four-leaf clovers, so take your pick and try for instance Luck O’ The Irish from Blueprint for a more varied gambling experience, with lower volatility and plenty of ways to win big early in the game.
