Review - Video Slot Lucky Jimmy

Sought-after software studio, Swintt , is calling on players to invoke the luck of the Irish this month as they embark on a magical journey to the Emerald Isle in the new Lucky Jimmy slot.

The latest release in Swintt ’s increasingly popular line-up of Premium Games, Lucky Jimmy is a classic five-reel, five-payline title that comes loaded with golden wins and exciting bonus features. The slot’s name is a reference to the mischievous leprechaun who’ll appear on the reels to guide players to maximum wins of 5,000x their bet – but only if they’re fortunate enough to land him in all 15 positions.

Alongside the titular leprechaun, other high-value symbols to appear in the game include widely-recognised omens of good fortune such as lucky ladybirds, golden horseshoes and four-leafed clovers, with the Irish theme being completed by a dense forest backdrop that’s sprinkled with red toadstools.

Of course, no trip to the Emerald Isle would be complete without legends of finding pots of gold at the end of the rainbow – and in Lucky Jimmy, players won’t have to look far for them at all. During each spin, glowing golden pots displaying bonus amounts can stop on random reel positions, and if players successfully manage to land three or more of these icons at once, the Pots of Gold feature will begin.

Similar to the XtraHold bonus mechanic that Swintt recently debuted in Mystic Bear, when the Pots of Gold feature gets underway, all triggering symbols and their prize amounts will remain locked in place as a series of three re-spins begins. After each round, the re-spin counter will drop by one unless a new pot of gold appears, at which point it will reset as the symbol and its prize is added to the board.

The feature will continue in this manner until no new pots are added or players successfully fill all 15 reel spaces with them. In either scenario, all visible prize amounts will then be totalled together and issued as the final feature win, with this often resulting in payouts that are worth their weight in gold.

In addition to the Pots of Gold feature, fans of Swintt Premium Games will notice that the iconic book symbol also makes a welcome return to the reels in Lucky Jimmy. As they’ll have seen in other slots that utilise this feature, landing three or more book symbols in a single game will instantly trigger 10 free spins, with one regular icon being chosen as a Lucky Symbol that will then expand to fill the reels.

Rounding out the familiar Premium Game package, any base game wins recorded in Lucky Jimmy can also be gambled in Swintt’s popular Risk feature. Here, players will be given the opportunity to double or quadruple their current prize by guessing the colour or suit of a hidden playing card respectively. Multiple rounds of risk can be played, but an incorrect guess will send players back to the base game.

David Mann, Chief Commercial Officer at Swintt, said: “This month, our mischievous leprechaun, Lucky Jimmy, is helping players find gold at the end of the rainbow in a brand-new Premium release that’s once again packed with rewarding features. He’ll be hoping that some of his fabled good fortune rubs off on them when they trigger the Pots of Gold feature and play their way to instant cash prizes that could get even bigger with each new spin. With all that and more, it’s an exciting addition to the Swintt line-up that players won’t want to miss.”
