Shamrock Miner

While Shamrock Miner doesn’t include a particularly unique theme, many punters are impressed by the features and visual appeal of the slot itself. This game is set in the heart of the Irish countryside, with the board being underneath a rainbow. Players can remain outside of the mine featured in this title; however, precious gems can still land across any of the reels.

This game was created by Play'n GO, an incredibly popular provider that has seen immense success with previous releases such as Bull in a Rodeo and Leprechauns Vault. Shamrock Miner can be played with a minimum bet size of 0.12 per spin, with a maximum potential win of 5,000x the total stake. 

The symbols in Shamrock Miner are simple but follow the theme perfectly. In addition to this, it's clear that some of the premium symbols have been heavily worked on, with a 3D appearance that almost makes them jump out against the background. First up we have the standard 10, J, Q, K, and A symbols. Next are the four different types of gemstones, which are topaz, amethyst, emerald, and ruby, in order of desirability. Landing 5 of these across a payline can award players with 50x, 50x, 100x, and 200x, respectively.

A few special icons also appear within Shamrock Miner. This includes a standard wild symbol, which is shown as a Leprechaun. Wild symbols can replace any common symbol along a payline. There are also rocks full of different gems and, finally, sticks of dynamite to represent the scatter symbol. Both of these aforementioned symbols are linked to a bonus mode!

The first feature within Shamrock Miner revolves around the popular collect mechanic. As mentioned above, there are rocks full of different gems in this game, which will contain a value based on a multiple of the stake size. If these drop across any of the reels, they have the potential to be collected if a wild symbol also appears during the same spin. Should this happen, all values will be totalled up and awarded to the player. 

During the main bonus, players will be awarded either 10, 15, or 20 spins to start, depending on whether 3, 4, or 5 scatter symbols are responsible for triggering the mode. Wilds will be collected during the bonus, with each one adding to the progress of the bar at the top of the slot. When this is full, players will be awarded with ten more free spins. 

In addition to this, the cash multiplier on the left of the board will increase by a random amount. Another row will also be added to the slot. This process can be repeated for every 4 wilds that are collected, with a maximum of 30x for the cash multiplier and a limit of 7 total rows.

While Irish theme slots are perhaps becoming overused, Shamrock Miner has an exciting couple of bonus modes and a variety of additional features to keep punters on the edge of their seats! Visually, this slot also ticks a good range of boxes, with a simple yet appealing overall feel.
