Game Content
The Book of the Irish is a game that you could happily play over and over. Not because the pots are massive, or that the actual theme inspires, but because the feel-good factor in this game makes it worth playing. I know that mixing feel-good and gambling in the same sentence is controversial, but this game is fun to play, especially the ludicrously difficult Gamble Feature.
The game background is set in the lush green rolling hills of what we assume is Ireland, where a checky Leprechaun guard’s a pot of gold. The rest of the game is a no-thrills affair with plenty of relaxing “Irish” music that has a lucky leprechaun feel to it.
Drop the scatter symbols and this game starts to take off. The music gets jauntier, and the spins just keep coming. Even though this is a simple game with a basic Book of… game setup, I liked playing this game. What did help, was that I dropped a considerable pot whilst in the Free spins bonus round. This game isn’t just about the spins or the wins, it’s about the whole happy package that this game is wrapped in.
Safer Gaming Features
The Book of the Irish offers a good safer gambling element to the game, but you need to go looking for it. Press and hold the play button and it takes you to a backend that offers the “auto-spin” function with a loss limiter and or a win limiter. There is a “history” director of your stakes and wins too, which is handy. We know that isn’t a perfect solution, but it is a nice little head-up. It’s easy to get lost in a game and having a list of what and when you staked is a good thing.
The rest is a good old-fashioned manual click option. Which is good for me. What better way to control your game than a little willpower and an urge to play something else.
Bonus Feature
Free Spins
The Book of the Irish is built around the classic scatter symbols that you’d normally get with any Book of… slot. Bag a minimum of three scatter symbols to trigger your 10 Free spins Bonus round. The jackpots and wins in this game are good, especially if you bag the scatter symbols, which is when this game pops. The pots are good and the animation is well done.
Gamble Feature
There are two options for the gamble feature. You can either gamble your win for “Free spins”, or double your money. The Gamble feature is a great addition to this game, even if it is a little “deceptive”. Opt for the Cash gamble option and you can set your win chances starting from 50%. The more you bet the less your chance of winning. Winning chances on this are good.
The other and much more of a challenge option is a shot at “free spins”. Starting with an impossible 5 free spins to a less than 1% chance at 15 free spins. Impossible, yet still I tried again and again. The game is fun and the gamble features a hoot. You do need the luck of the Irish for this game.
There is a “go faster” button, but that just eats away at your funds and takes all the enjoyment out of the game.
Conclusion
Book of the Irish brings a massive smile to your face. Hats off to Inspired Gaming, for the best in making a game that is easy to like, easy to play, and darned near impossible to win Free Spins using the Gamble Feature. Genius! The rest of the game is a classic Book game that might make your top ten list, but not for the reasons that you’d think.
Forget trying to bag the pot of gold at the end of this fabulous rainbow, and relax and enjoy the game with its built-in earworm.
