Game Overview

I don’t need to tell you how popular Irish-themed slots have been throughout slot history, and one of the most prolific developers of games utilising this type of theme is Blueprint Gaming, with their Luck O’ The Irish series spawning at least 10 slots to date. The latest in this epic franchise to hit our screens is Luck O’ the Irish Cash Strike, and this time, we’re treated to a 3×3 slot with 5 paylines, a 94% RTP and a 50,000x the stake maximum win.

With regard to bonuses, there’s not a huge amount to look forward to, but there is a Cash Collect feature in play, where Collect symbols landing on the same spin as Cash prizes win you the values in view. Plus, land Coins on the reels on either side of the Collect, and the main Cash Strike Bonus game triggers. You have 3 re-spins with the Collect locked in place, and any new coins that land will reset those spins back to 3 before those cash values are paid.

I’m sure you’ll agree that none of the above is groundbreaking, but sometimes playing simple slots provides a welcome break from modern slots brimming with complicated features and mechanics. Check out the Luck O’The Irish slot demo below; you may find you get lucky!

Luck O’ The Irish Cash Strike Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols

Luck O’ The Irish Cash Strike slot paytable

The Luck O’ The Irish series of slots is very similar to Light & Wonder’s classic Rainbow Riches range, which is still spawning new slots to this day. They share the same Irish luck theme, usually have limited features, and generally provide a laid-back and simplified online slot game experience. However, there are some Rainbow Riches releases, much like Rainbow Riches LOCOmotion, the last of the bunch I reviewed, that do offer something different. If you’d rather stick to the tried and tested LOTI slots, then we have plenty for you to get stuck into, with our top recommendations being Luck O’ The Irish Fortune Play 3 and Luck O’ The Irish Go For Gold.

It’s about time we got back to talking about the slot in question, and the next task on the list is to inspect the paytable. It lists nine regular symbols, which can deliver combination wins, and a Wild symbol that helps to complete those combos by substituting for the regular icons. The Pot of Gold, as you’d expect, is the most lucrative, with a return of 50x the stake for a 3-symbol combo, while the Red and Blue Gems pay 30x and 20x. The remaining symbols are fruits, with the Blueberries and Watermelons worth 16x each, the Lemons, Plums, and Oranges returning 4x, and the Cherries delivering 1x.

Before spinning, you’ll want to set an ideal spin bet, and the minimum and maximum bets available to you on Luck O’ The Irish Cash Strike are €0.10 and €50.00 per spin, respectively.

Luck O’ The Irish Cash Strike Slot Base Game & Modifiers

Luck O’ The Irish Cash Strike slot base game

There are just 5 paylines across the 3×3 reel matrix of the Luck O’ The Irish slot, and you receive payouts when three matching symbols land across them from left to right.

Cash Collect

Gold Coin Cash Prize symbols can appear on the first and third reels. If those symbols appear on the reels simultaneously as a Collect symbol on the middle reel, you win all cash values in view.

Luck O’ The Irish Cash Strike Slot Bonus Features

Luck O’ The Irish Cash Strike slot bonus feature

The main bonus feature of the Luck O’ the Irish Cash Strike slot is the Cash Strike Bonus, which can be triggered in one of two ways. Cash Value symbols are collected in a Pot of Gold above the reels during the base game. When this happens, there is a chance the Cash Strike Bonus will be triggered at random. Alternatively, and the most likely way, is when a Collect symbol lands on the middle reel and Cash Prizes land on the first and third reels simultaneously.

Cash Strike Bonus

Once activated, this feature holds the Collect symbol in position on the middle reels and gives you three re-spins of all other positions. As the spins take place, the Collect symbol collects all the cash prizes that land. Furthermore, the re-spin counter is reset back to 3 each time a prize is collected. Finally, it’s possible for up to two more Collect symbols to land on the middle reel, meaning each subsequent cash prize is now collected two or three times.

Pros

Classic slot gaming that will appeal to old-school slot fans.
Part of a long-running slot series that is hugely popular online and in land-based establishments in the UK.

Cons

Not much in the way of features.
Low RTP.
