Play Boots of Luck for Free

Have you ever heard someone say the phrase “Luck of the Irish” and thought to yourself: “what makes Irish people so lucky?” Well, in truth, the saying doesn’t actually refer to the good fortunes of people from the Emerald Isle - quite the opposite. Without going into the details, it is safe to say that the Irish have had a rather miserable history over the past few hundred years, and it would seem that the phrase was originally used to refer to the bad luck that seemed to hang over the country. But, despite invasions, famines and discrimination, the plucky spirit of the Irish people bore through and nowadays the term can be applied to describe the ‘luck’ that was made from their optimism and perseverance. Oh, and we guess it also applies to finding a leprechaun with a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow…

This free Boots of Luck slot machine is one of the newest games on the market to feature those cheeky little chaps from Irish folklore. As such, you will find a range of symbols over the game screen that depict everything you need to make a leprechaun, from the boots on his feet to the hat on his head. And don’t forget the flagon of ale in his hand!

You’ll never know if your luck is in unless you give this slot machine, be it with real money stakes or just for fun in the demo version. If you do decide to play for real money, then you will be able to choose from a relatively low limit spread of stakes ranging from 0.20 to 20.00 credits. Once the bets are in place, you can begin to turn the reels in hope that a winning formation of icons appears on a payline (there are 20 in total which are permanently fixed on the reels).

The game’s paytable allows players to review all of the possible prize payouts on offer but we can tell you that the top jackpot weighs in as a 500x line bet multiplier. Admittedly, this isn’t to most rewarding of prizes in the world of online gambling, but players should consider that this low to medium volatility slot will award wins at quite a fast rate of knots.

If there is one thing that all free online slots need, it is a bit of bonus action to help players be as lucky as they can possibly be. This Irish slot machine offers up a little bit of that thanks to a special wild symbol which is depicted by the cheeky leprechaun character. Not only does this wee fella appear on the reels to potentially substitute for other symbols to create winning lines, but he will also stay on the reels and walk left with every following spin. On top of this walking wild feature, players can enjoy a round of 10 free spins by finding three pot of gold scatter symbols anywhere on the reels.

Truth be told, this game is a little bit limited when it comes to the extra gameplay features, with no side game bonuses or even a gamble feature to break up the spins. If you are looking for a Celtic themed slot which brings a full pot of golden bonus features, then you could have a spin of Leprechaun Tales by Genesis gaming with a unique bonus wheel feature. If you don’t mind the straightforward bonus elements of this Betixon game, then you can find some similar gameplay features in their other slots, including Market Wonders and Golden Era.

Boots of Luck is a slot machine that doesn’t strive to be too original on the theme and bonus gameplay fronts. In fact, apart from the walking wilds element, this video slot isn’t going to jump out when placed next to similarly themed slots. Nevertheless, there are some punters out there who don’t mind some no-nonsense bonus action and you will certainly won’t get any unusual surprises with this game, which can be a good thing in itself.
