Paddy’s Pool Party Slot Review

Game Rules

Paddy’s Pool Party is a video slot with variable height reels that can range from a 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 to a 3 x 7 x 7 x 7 x 3 format. The game uses a payout path mechanic that offers up to 3,087 ways to win. The game has 5 low value symbols represented by card ranks and 6 high value symbols.

Additional symbols are the Clover symbols that add value to the progressive re-spin meter, the Collect symbol that appears only on reels 1 and 5, and the Coin symbols that appear only on reels 2, 3, and 4. The Coin symbols come in three varieties: Cash Coins, Bank Coins, and Bonus Coins. The game has a Wild symbol that substitutes for all symbols except the Collect, Coins, Bonus, and Clover symbols. Wild symbols only pay out when 5 of a kind Wild appears. Combinations of 3 or 4 Wilds do not give a win on their own, but only replace other symbols, as indicated above.

Coin Collect

Landing a Collect symbol on reel 1 or 5 along with any Coin symbols on reels 2, 3 or 4 will collect these coins.

Cash coins pay out the value shown on the coin (shown as a multiplier of the base bet). In the base game, these coins can be worth X1, X2, X3, X4, X5 or X10. In Free Spins, they can additionally be worth X15, X20, X25, X50, X100 or X500. Cash coins can be won twice if 2 Collect symbols appear on the screen. Bank coins award a spin of the bank reels that will determine one of the bank prizes.

There are 4 bank prizes that can be won: MEGA, MAJOR, MINOR and MINI.

• The MEGA prize has a value of 500 x the base bet.
• The MAJOR prize has a value of 100 x the base bet.
• The MINOR prize has a value of 25 x the base bet.
• The MINI prize has a value of 10 x the base bet.

Bank Coins can be won twice if 2 Collect symbols appear on the screen. Multiple Bank Coins can land during a single spin. Bonus Coins award 7 free spins for each coin collected

Bonus Coins can be won twice if 2 Collect symbols appear on the screen. Multiple Bonus Coins can land during a single spin. If Collect, Cash Coin, Bank Coin and Clover symbols land during a single spin, they are awarded in the following order: Clover symbol adds a value to the re-spin counter, a Bank reel spin is awarded, Cash Coins and the Bank prize are collected, Free Spins are awarded.

Clover Respins

The base game features a progressive coin counter and a progressive respin counter. To encourage new players, the coin counter starts at 5 and the respin counter starts at 3 for each bet and game mode.

Collected coins are added to the coin counter and when 50 coins are reached (or 25 coins if the Gold bet is activated), Clover Respins are triggered. Once the maximum number of coins required to trigger Clover Respins is reached, excess coins are no longer added to the counter. Landing Clover symbols (on reel 5 only) add 1, 2 or 3 spins to the respin counter. There is no limit to the number of respins that can be accumulated in this counter. When Clover Respins are activated, all coins on the screen are frozen in position and the remaining positions on reels 2, 3 and 4 spin for the value of 1 respin. During the Clover Respins, either coins or blank symbols (represented by low value symbols) can land. Any other coin symbols are frozen in place. The feature ends when all positions are filled with coins or the Respins counter reaches 0, at which point the final coins collected are counted. During the Clover Respins, the Bank Reels and Free Spins can be activated. If there are more than 3 Respins remaining after the feature ends, the Respins counter retains that value. Otherwise, it resets to 3 Respins. After the feature ends, the coin counter resets to 5. The Clover Respins and Coin counters are only active during regular spins in the base game (excluding Clover Respins) and do not apply during Free Spins.

Free Spins

Up to 42 Free Spins can be activated during Free Spins. During Free Spins, all Collect symbols that land become Moving Collect symbols. They act like regular Collect symbols, but move down the reels one position during the next Free Spin. After collecting coins for the first time with a Collect symbol, Golden Spins are activated, which are awarded after each subsequent coin collection. (The number of such spins is displayed on the Golden Spins counter). Each Golden Spin awards a re-spin for each coin collected. The following multipliers can be awarded: X1, X2, X3, X4, X5, X10, X15, X20, X25, X50, X100, X500. After each set of Golden Spins is completed, the counter is reset to a new value (1 more than the previous one). Each bonus coin collected during Free Spins awards an additional 3 Free Spins. Free spins are played with the same number of ways to win and bet as in the spin that triggered them.

Jackpot Reel

Landing the Collect symbol with the Jackpot Coin triggers a spin of the Jackpot Wheel. The Jackpot Wheel awards one of the jackpots: Міпі.

Buy a Bonus

Buying a bonus allows you to immediately start the Free Spins feature. The game has three Buy Bonus options: 7 Free Spins for 100 x the base bet, 14 Free Spins for 250 x the base bet, 21 Free Spins for 500 x the base bet.

Golden Bet

The Golden Bet feature can be activated for an additional cost of 0.25x the bet. Once activated, the number of coins needed to trigger Clover Respins is reduced to 25. Bonus Coin and Bank Coin symbols also appear significantly more frequently. Wins are paid out according to the paytable and are based on the base bet.
