Theme 

Find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow as you play Shamrock Trio Hold and Respin from NetGaming. As you collect golden coins and add them to the pots above the reels, you’ll unlock three potential bonus rounds while enjoying traditionally Irish music and scenery. 

Gameplay 

Shamrock Trio Hold and Respin has three rows, five columns, and 20 fixed paylines. You can spend as little as $0.20 or as much as $20 per spin. Connecting three or more symbols next to one another is your ticket to victory. 

J and Q symbols have the least value, since matching five of them only pays 1x your bet size. K and A symbols offer slightly more bang for your buck with a max win of 2x your spin. Harps and leprechaun shoes promise up to 3x wins. Golden horseshoes could offer 6x your current stake. 

The most valuable icons in this game are the leprechaun’s hat and the Leprechaun Wild symbol, both of which pay 2x your bet for three matching symbols, 4x for four matching symbols, and 20x for five-of-a-kind. 

The base game is simple, as all wins are paid from left to right, but the bonus is where things get a bit more complicated. 

Graphics 

Shamrock Trio brings slot enthusiasts to greener pastures. On the left side of the page, you’ll notice a small treehouse fit for a leprechaun (or a Smurf, if that fits your visualization better). If you take a walk on the path outside, glimmering rays of sunshine and mountainous views await.

But it’s impossible to miss the rainbow curving over three pots of gold, which is where Shamrock Trio got its name to begin with. 

Bonus Rounds 

Buying the bonus round will cost you 80x the size of your current wager, but it’s simple to trigger these features naturally. Green, Red, and Blue Clover Coins appear at random during the base game. 

Green clovers trigger a multiplier bonus where you’ll spin a wheel that offers 2x – 10x more on your feature win. Red clovers open up a double grid with a chance to win the Mega Shamrock jackpot of 5,000x your bet if you fill both with 30 coins. You’ll start with three spins in each grid. 

Blue clovers trigger extra spins on an empty, 3 x 5 grid. You’ll start with four respins, and you’ll get to keep the entire value of your feature win. Importantly, landing any combination of these symbols can unlock more than one feature at the same time. 

For example, if you unlock Red and Blue Clover Coins, you’ll have extra re-spins and a chance to trigger the Mega Shamrock Jackpot. 

Availability

Shamrock Trio Hold and Respin is widely available at our recommended sweeps sites and all casinos that feature Netgaming slots.

My Take

Shamrock Trio Hold and Respin looks simple on the outside, but having the opportunity to get two or more bonuses at once adds more excitement to the mix. It also has a max potential win of 5,000x your stake while boasting very accessible bet limits and an unmistakably Irish theme.

While the RTP isn’t where we’d want it to be at 94.41% compared to the 95% – 96% standard for other games, this machine blends Hold & Win mechanics with easily understandable rules.
