Rainbow Riches Free Spins

Released: 26.02.2017
Bet range: $0.10 to $500

If you haven’t guessed already, this variant of the Rainbow Riches slot, everything revolves around the free spins feature. The Rainbow Riches Free Spins is a five-reel slot machine with 10 pay lines. And there are up to 20 free spins up for grabs! To win this feature round you need to have at least three bonus “free spins” scatter icons on reels 1, 3 and 5. One scatter symbol on the first reel will earn you 10 free spins while two scatters will give you 15 free spins. If you gather all three stacked scatters it will trigger the 20 free spins game. Another interesting thing about this scatter icon is that it also doubles up as a wild icon which increases the chances of getting the winning formations from the other ordinary symbols as well. It is a medium variance slot with an overall RTP offered by this slot is 95.17%. The top multiplier jackpot offers a 500x your bet win and the maximum payout is $250,000. Bets can be adjusted per line between $0.01 to $50.00 per line giving a minimum bet of $0.10 when all 10 lines are in play and a maximum bet of $500.

Rainbow Riches Drops of Gold

Released: 26.06.2018
Bet range: $0.10 to $500

The game was probably named Drops of Gold as you will see a steady steady stream of golden wins trickle down in with every few spins of the reels. It is a medium variance slot where you spin the reels with an RTP of 97.75%. However, that’s the highest RTP the game offer when the Big Bets feature is on. The standard base game has an RTP of 94%. So, when you bet less than $2.00 per spin, the RTP will be at its lowest. Bet more than that amount and you’ll be spinning with a theoretical return of 96%. Only by using the Big Bet feature will you get to the highest RTP. Rainbow Riches Drops of Gold has five-reels, four rows and between 50 to 200 pay lines, depending on how you play the slot. Again, like in case of RTPs, in the main game, you’ll be spinning with 50 win lines. At the highest level of the Big Bet feature, you’ll spin with 100 lines and during free spins, the number rises to 200. The maximum you can win in a single spin is $250,000. To start spinning you need a minimum bet of $0.10 which can be raised up to a maximum wager of $500 per spin.

To get the highest RTP, you need to be playing with the Big Bets feature on. With 100 pay lines and a high RTP, you stand a pretty good chance at bagging the top prize of $250,000.

Rainbow Riches Leapin Leprechauns

Released: 15.06.2016
Bet range: $0.10 to $2.00

Leapin Leprechauns is probably one of the most unique casino games in the Rainbow Riches games series. For one, it is not a slot and tilts more towards the genre of scratch card games. However, Leapin Leprechauns bypasses the traditional scratch card game format of instant win well well. Instead, it works more like an interactive animated game with a progressive jackpot.

It is a jumping casino game that awards players with prizes by moving the leprechaun figure. The game starts with O'Leary, the leprechaun hero on a hilltop ledge, overlooking five platforms of the green earth. So, you must leap 5 times and cross all hurdles after which you can choose to continue or collect your winnings and end the game. Your task, therefore, is to succesfully guide the lucky leprechaun from one level to the next without touching any obstacles! Don’t worry as the gameplay is simple. Set your wager for the jump and then click the 'Jump' button. With each jump, your leprechaun will move from one platform to another. Upon landing, he may uncover a prize, a Power-Up, an Obstacle, or an empty platform. Leapin' Leprechauns offers a cash prize that pays out anywhere between 0.5 and 100 times the total wager for that jump. The obstacles are the cobra, black cat, cracked mirror, cracked platform and the number '13'.

The four power-ups are Leprechaun’s Hat (eliminates one obstacle for the next jump); Heart (eliminates obstacles for next two jumps); Horseshoe (eliminates obstacles for next three jumps) and Balloon (carries you past all remaining platforms into prize zone where you receive a random multiplier of 2x, 3x or 5x). The minimum bet to make the leprechaun leap is just $0.10 which can be raised up to $2.00.

Check out our summary guides on how to play and win at each individual game below!

What is the difference between the various Rainbow Riches slots?

Loads of things! While the wonderful mythical Irish theme we all love is naturally at the centre of each game, every slot has a slightly different take on the Rainbow Riches style. For example, did you know that Rainbow Riches even has a Slingo and a Bingo version? Besides the visuals, music and atmosphere that accompany each Rainbow Riches game, there is also, of course, a great deal of difference between bonuses and special features across the slots. So, although all RR series games have the Pots of Gold and Wishing Well features, their payouts and game mechanics might not be the same. Also, the RTPs vary and can range anything between 95%, going as far up as to 98%.

Which is the best Rainbow Riches slot game?

The answer to that question completely depends on what you like in a slot game.

Which Rainbow Riches slot has the best RTP?

Rainbow Riches RTP varies depending on the game you’re playing. But all slots are within the range of 95% to 98% RTP. With a return-to-player percentage of 98%, the RR game with the best RTP is Pick n’ Mix. However, if you have played any RR series game, you will know that the highest RTP offered on any Rainbow Riches slot only applies if the Big Bets feature is active. Moreover, both house advantage and RTP are calculated over the long term. Meaning, you have to play for a long time to get the RTP promised by the game.

How do you win at Rainbow Riches?

Usually, it is The Road to Riches and Pots of Gold features that offer the highest payout potentials. So, keep your fingers crossed to land the winning combination to trigger these. Also, as we mentioned above, make sure the Big Bets feature is active and you are playing with the highest RTP the slot has to offer.

Can you hack Rainbow Riches?

Like in all slot games, there are no ‘cheats’ in the basic sense of the word. The combinations appearing on the screen are completely random and the game is hundred per cent fair. However, there are many Rainbow Riches tips and tricks you can employ to make the most out of bonus rounds. Read our blog listing all the rainbow riches strategy that can increase your chances of winning. You can also try to win rainbow riches free spins to up your probabilities of landing a prize. But ultimately, to win at the Rainbow Riches slot games, you have to be lucky and get the winning combinations!
