Shamrock Holmes Megaways Slots

Shamrock Holmes… well, we are reminded of Sherlock Holmes, and yet the rainbow and pot of gold in the title image make us think more of a lucky Irish theme. We have a real mix of things happening in this game, so let’s see how those might pan out.

How do the Megaways work?

In the usual manner, if you’ve ever played a Megaways slot before. This means we have six reels in action and a maximum of 117,649 Megaways to contend with, depending on how the icons fall on each spin.

Get underway with a 20-cent wager per spin

Since this covers all the Megaways, it’s a decent starting point. Other bets are available, as usual, ranging up to $5 per play.

Which icons should you look out for?

W is often used as a wild symbol, and the same holds true in this game. You can also spot a gold coin – possibly a stray coin from that infamous pot of gold – as this is used as the scatter symbol.

Look out for Rolling Reels among other things

This means a winning combo is taken away from the reels, symbols drop into the vacated spaces, and new ones appear to fill the reels. This might involve another prize, which would continue the Rolling Reels effect. It stops when nothing new is won.

There is a respin available if you land three scatters, but you need a pixie or the title character, Shamrock Holmes to land as well. This affects how many ways to win you get in the respin. If you get both characters in the same spin as the three scatters, you will receive the maximum 117,649 ways to win.

You’ll need four scatters to land 10 free games on the reels. This would produce a 2x prize multiplier as well. However, whenever you garner a prize from those spins, the multiplier goes up by 1x each time.

Does this mix of themes work out for the best?

If you like different slots to play, we think the Shamrock Holmes idea does work well. You can also expect a different quantity of Megaways per game too, which is another facet that keeps this game on its toes.
