The blue skies of Stakersland is a sight to behold but there is something magical that makes this landscape all the more beautiful, and that is the bright colours of the rainbows that stretch across the sky as far as the eye can see. These are no ordinary rainbows though as we barely see a drop of rain with our all-year sunny climate. This is the work of a particularly lucky leprechaun who is forever dropping pots of gold all over the land of stakers, and that is exactly where those rainbows lead to, and where our story begins.
To set things straight, we are talking about the hugely successful leprechaun of Rainbow Riches fame, Lucky O’Leary.
This is a story all about the famous slot game, that one leprechaun, and the growing number of lodgings that can be found in all corners of Stakersland. It’s an adventure that you will not want to miss out on. So, read on as we take you on a journey from the humble beginnings of one brave and daring creature, to what is now one of the biggest video slot franchises to have ever step foot on Stakersland soil.
The story begins back in 2009 with the original Barcrest Rainbow Riches video slot game, and little did they know back then that this game would have become as big as it did. The mischievous, ginger-haired Lucky O’Leary leprechaun packed his bags and set off into Stakersland. You could often find him walking the winding paths throughout the countryside. His mission? To not only find fortune for Barcrest, but to also bring all his luck and pots of gold to those stakers who were willing to join him in his fantasy gaming world, the Emerald Isle.
The Rainbow Riches original had an attractive combination of simple gameplay and three lucrative bonus rounds that all offered instant cash prizes. It was all new back then but those bonus rounds of Pots of Gold, The Wishing Well, and Road to Riches are all now firmly placed in video slot folklore. There is something about the luck of the Irish and the green Emerald Isle that attracts the staker community, and Rainbow Riches has enjoyed millions of spins since it was released all those years ago.
While the Rainbow Riches franchise pushes on with new games appearing all over the park, the original game has already earned its rightful home in our Slots Hall of Fame. The instantly recognisable game screen and the three colourful and entertaining bonus rounds sparked a wave of leprechaun enthusiasts. The Rainbow Riches original still gets a lot of interest from new and experienced stakers who can’t help but want to find out where that rainbow in the sky may lead to.

Leapin’ Leprechauns took us all by surprise when it became the third Rainbow Riches to be released in 2016. It wasn’t the fact that Lucky O’Leary had been so busy with yet another game release that surprised us, no, it was the weird and wonderful platform-based game that he gave us. Perhaps he had been playing too much Super Mario or maybe all the new-found fame had gone to his head. Whatever it was that inspired him,
Stakersland was thankful for it because this was a fresh new idea for the slot gaming category.
You’ll have to travel north and look up to the sky to find the prize-filled platforms of Leapin’ Leprechauns. Lucky O’Leary will be there waiting for you to begin the daring leap from the mountain top and then he’ll be with you all the way as you work your way up the floating platforms. Cash prizes and power ups will help you overcome the many obstacles along the way in this unusual slot game from the Rainbow Riches series. Make the most of your five jumps and if you carry on and jump even higher then be sure to have your power ups ready. Yes, this really is slot gaming, but not as you know it!
You cannot fault the ambitions of Lucky O’Leary as he continued to bring something new into the Rainbow Riches series with every slot game that he introduced. Found amongst the rolling green fields in the south of Stakersland, Reels of Gold is a major slot game in the collection that is bursting full of reels and bonus features. The sky is the limit here and Barcrest decided to put everything they had into their next title in the series. Along with its double-reel layout, the game also offers free spins, fairy bonuses, and the Big Bet feature returns once more. There is no mistaking the Reels of Gold slot game and although its design may look slightly intimidating for beginners, we will show you that this is not the case. As with all the Rainbow Riches slot titles, fun gameplay is at the core and so it doesn’t take much to become an expert on these games, so let us now show you around Reels of Gold and explain the many features hidden amongst it.
Roll on to 2017 and roll on another Rainbow Riches slot and this time it comes in the form of the ever-popular Free Spins game. The famous green and golds have been removed and instead you are presented with a twilight atmosphere where Lucky O’Leary waits for you. It does not take a scientist to work out what this game is all about, and the main feature goes to show that this leprechaun is willing to listen to his fans and give them what they want. So, what did the Rainbow Riches fans want, exactly? Free spins, and lots of them.
In true Rainbow Riches style, this game took an idea and squeezed every last drop out of it, or in this case, every spin. It is no wonder that this game continuously ends up as one of the most favourite games in the series because stakers are given the chance to win up to 999 free spins. Not five, not 10, not 20 or 50 spins, but 999 free spins can be won during any one of the bonus rounds. It’s another high-end bonus feature from the famous leprechaun who is now really starting to make a name for himself in all four corners of the park.

The second of the 2018 releases from Barcrest was Rainbow Riches Drops of Gold and this is where things really started to brighten up. You’ll have to venture into the woods and follow the bright lights to find Lucky O’Leary and his Drops of Gold, and you will know exactly what we mean when you reach the reels. Before your eyes you will find a rainbow dropping pots of gold and silver straight onto the reels of the game. It’s true, your eyes are not deceiving you, that is the end of the rainbow right in front of you.
The old tale goes that you can find pots of gold at the end of the rainbow, and so here we have the proof with the pots literally sliding off the rainbow and into your lap. The wooded enclosure wraps around the game and so it’s just you, the rainbow, and the pots of gold as you spin the reels. The Drops of Gold feature is the highlight but once again the Big Bet feature gives you quicker access to the pleasures of the bonus round. The progression of the Rainbow Riches collection is clear for all to see and with its 10-year anniversary looming, Lucky O’Leary was THE leprechaun that everybody wanted to play with.
It became official news in 2018 that Lucky O’Leary and his extended family of leprechauns had moved into the Stakersland countryside. The temptation was too much to resist and the Rainbow Riches brand continued to grow with the latest instalment, Home Sweet Home. Tucked away in the woods you will find the Leprechaun hideout with wooden doors built amongst the trees and bushes, and it’s here where you can spin the reels under the watchful eye of O’Leary himself who can be found lazing back against a tree to the side the screen.
The game is based around the ‘Knock Knock’ Wild symbol which holds the key to opening the four wooden doors in the background. You can win extra Wilds on the reels and you may even find reels full of Wilds if you discover the magical fairy symbol. Free spins are also a handy feature in the game along with the 50 paylines which is a big boost for the Rainbow Riches series. Additionally, as is now customary with every new Lucky O’Leary experience, the Big Bet feature once again gives stakers the chance to pay their way to the bonus rounds for some potential instant payout action.
It was only a matter of time until the mischievous leprechaun that we have grown to love over the years decided to take a spin at the slingo games. Who can blame him? We all deserve a little break from our usual surroundings and slingo is what Lucky O’Leary wanted, and so Slingo Rainbow Riches was what Stakersland received, and what a fun experience it turned out to be. O’Leary set up his Slingo game on the country path leading up to the southern mountains of the park and it’s the perfect place to stop and play a game or two.
The game of bingo is about as easy as it comes and combining it with a slot game is a match made in heaven, well, for some anyway. Match up numbers to mark off the lines and use your Jokers wisely to win the maximum payout. What made this game so appealing to the Rainbow Riches community was that some of the classic bonus rounds were also included to keep that familiar feeling. The Wishing Well, Cash Crop, Magic Toadstool, and the Road to Riches bonus rounds were all waiting to be played once you get up to five slingo lines or more. It was another excellent game to add to the growing Rainbow Riches collection.
Leprechauns Gold was a fine way to toast 10 years at Stakersland and Lucky O’Leary was always going to make this year a big one. He had come a long way from those early days back in 2009 with his original Rainbow Riches, and you can see just how far he and his Barcrest helpers have come. The game can be found once again on the countryside pathway down to the southern mountains, which is quite fitting as this is clearly O’Leary’s favourite location to set up his famous franchise of slot games. It must be all the fresh air and greenery that reminds him of his Irish roots.
The Leprechaun’s Gold slot and O’Leary himself are clearly displaying their power here with seven reels and 50 paylines in total, giving those highrolling stakers the chance to play at €500 per spin if the feeling strikes them. Yes, we are talking some big prize payout potential here, but not only that because the slot also adds some new features to the Rainbow Riches series, too. The Rainbow Ring Bonus Spinner is a tantalising bonus round that helps to bring something new and colourful to your gameplay, and with the Big Bet feature and the Free Spins and Wishing Well bonus rounds as well, the release of Leprechaun’s Gold was the perfect way to celebrate the 10 year anniversary.
Lucky O’Leary had one more surprise up his sleeve in 2019 and perhaps it turned out to be the biggest game of the year overall. Rainbow Riches and the Megaways feature from Big Time Gaming combined forces to give us something that we were all waiting for; to play Rainbow Riches with up to 117,649 ways to win. We can forgive O’Leary for not giving us this gem of a game sooner because the final result is a slot that is now firmly in the hearts of Rainbow Riches fans everywhere. Head for the old stone house on the pathway to the southern mountains and look to your right to find the sparkling pot of gold and the Rainbow Riches Megaways game.
The 6-reel layout with the special top row of symbols sitting above holds the key to some big wins, but it’s the interchanging symbol sizes that create the huge potential payout. It may sound complicated, but it is definitely isn’t. For anyone new to the Megaways feature then we could not think of a better game to start your adventure than with the most famous leprechaun in all the land. Extra features such as the Buy Pass (which is the Big Bet feature rebadged), free spins, and unlimited multipliers are all included, too.
The popularity of the Megaways game gave Lucky O’Leary and his Barcrest developers a wealth of new ideas and so to mark the new decade they gave us Rainbow Riches Cluster Magic. It was all based around the cluster pays feature, but an expanding gameplay area with every win brought an experience that kept stakers entertained in a way never seen before in the Rainbow Riches series. The location of Cluster Magic is a lot closer to home, and just like the Megaways slot, you can find it in between the wishing well and the old stone house. The pots of gold lying around is also a big giveaway to its location as well!
The main feature of the game is, of course, the Cluster pays with up to clusters of 10 symbols paying out prizes worth up to 12,500 coins, but there is a lot more to enjoy as well. Persisting Wilds, Infinity Spins, and Wild Rain are the three Free Game features available so you can expect sticky Wilds, up to 250 spins with unlimited multipliers, and a new set of reels are used for the various Wild patterns in the Wild Rain feature. As you can see, Cluster Magic is bursting with entertainment, features, and that dependable Lucky O’Leary charm.
If there was one thing missing from the Rainbow Riches slot game series then it would be a jackpot prize, but 2020 gave us that missing feature in true Lucky O’Leary style. Not one, not two, but three jackpots can be won in the Pots of Gold slot game with its Mega Drop feature. Epic, Major, and Minor jackpot prizes are available if you find your way to the Pots of Gold reels, simply follow the country path south to the foot of the mountains and the pots of cash prize are waiting for you there.
The jackpots are not the only reason why stakers make the journey out to play this lucrative Pots of Gold game because, quite fittingly, there is a bonus round called Pots of Gold with several Bronze and Silver multiplier prizes to be won. The Mega Drop feature is what gets the stakers venturing out to play this particular Rainbow Riches game though, and while it does not hold the same entertainment value of the recent titles in the series, the inclusion of the Mega Drop jackpots is a milestone feature for the lucky leprechaun and his ever-growing slot franchise.
Nothing can stop the mischievous leprechaun from getting in on all the current action and this is exactly what we saw with the Rainbow Riches Mega Drop Quest. Lucky O ‘ Leary is dipping his toes into the social gaming world and allowing stakers to join groups to try and win his jackpots together. It is one of the new ways to play online casino games and Rainbow Riches is right at the heart of the adventure, just as it has been ever since it made its way here back in 2009. Keeping up with the modern times is one thing that has managed to keep the Rainbow Riches series relevant and popular throughout its time in the park.
Gather up your friends and take a trip to the Stakersland countryside to find the pots of gold and magic rainbows of the Mega Drop Quest slot game. This is Rainbow Riches but not as you know it. Pick and choose which jackpot you want to play for with your team and if you win it, you get to share the prize with your team. Of course, you can still play for the jackpots on your own but playing with friends can be just as exciting, but either way, Lucky O’Leary will be there dancing away if you do manage to drop one of this jackpot prizes.
Lucky O’Leary and his team kept themselves busy during 2020 and set up plans for the next title in the series. Next up was the Rising Wins slot game with its special Rainbow Meter Multiplier feature. It has become increasingly apparent over the last few slot releases that this famous leprechaun likes to keep watch over some of his most precious games, so look out for the house on the hill and the Rainbow Riches reels of Rising Wins can be found nearby. It is a basic game with the layout going back to its roots, but the bonus rounds bring a new sense of prize-winning potential for stakers.
You won’t be finding free spins during your sessions on this game, but the cascading symbol and Rainbow meter combination is what this game is all about, and it works well. Not only can you win multiple wins from just one spin, but every consecutive cascading win adds one number to the multiplier value on the Rainbow Meter found to the side of the screen. It is an exciting double feature that can quickly bring home some big prizes. Rising Wins was a solid add-on to the Rainbow Riches collection, and it gave us all yet another entertaining feature as well.
Rainbow Riches is not finished yet and by the looks of it we still have many years and games to look forward to. For now, the jackpot fever continues, and Lucky O’Leary just can’t seem to give his money away quick enough. The big highlight here is the progressive jackpot that is seeded at a cool €50,000 which is a life-changing amount for most stakers, but this is a progressive and the more wagers that O’Leary takes, the bigger he grows that jackpot. Dropping the progressive jackpot can be achieved from any bet although the chances of winning are proportional to your overall bet size.
It goes without saying that one of those now famous huge rainbows takes center stage of the slot game, so keep your eye out for the Jackpot O Luck Rainbow and look directly below its apex and you will find the jackpot reels waiting to be spun. The game also comes with some other enticing features with free spins and multipliers on its 15-payline layout, so it’s a hugely charming slot that keeps the wheels of this Rainbow Riches juggernaut spinning on.
Barcrest is the name and gaming studio behind the famous Rainbow Riches slot game series and they have been up and running ever since 1968. The company was not one of the first to jump into the online gaming adventure though and it took them until 2009 to launch their iconic Rainbow Riches slot. Ever since that famous launch, the studio has always been known for its high-quality and feature-rich slot games. All those years learning their craft with the land-based slot machines has no doubt helped them to fuel their success in the online world as well. Especially within the UK market in which the Rainbow Riches slot game theme is now known far and wide amongst the staker communities who come from there.
Lucky Irish Theme & Easy, Appealing Gameplay The luck of the Irish is a hot topic of conversation that stretches right across Stakersland from the countryside locations of the Rainbow Riches games to the hustle and bustle of the central hub, where all stakers meet to discuss the latest iGaming technology and releases. There has been no escaping the famous saying “the luck of the Irish” and we can imagine that Lucky O’Leary, the entrepreneur Leprechaun of Rainbow Riches fame, has a thing or two to say about that particular phrase. Because it is no luck that he is where he is now, and he and his Barcrest team have worked hard to build up the series of slot games that have now become folklore in the land of stakers.
To be fair, Irish people are considered to be lucky and this has been a traditional way of thinking for many years now, but we are sure that some of them are luckier than others and some are just not lucky at all. However, the traditional Irish theme has been such a popular choice for slot game providers over the years, but none have managed to get close to the level at which Rainbow Riches has now grown into. A strong mascot definitely helps, and Lucky O’Leary is just that. He is everything that you expect a leprechaun to be… cheeky, charming, mischievous, and always sitting on pots full of cash! On top of the famous charismatic character, the game also makes the most of bright colours and an appealing visual design. Rainbows, pots of gold, lush green fields, and bright blue skies are all ticked off for most of the games in the collection.
The simple gameplay factor is also something keeps stakers coming back for more Rainbow Riches fun. They have traditional symbol designs along with simple slot grid layouts, although Lucky O’Leary has walked down the Megaways and Cluster Pays path in recent years, but even then, the games are easy and enjoyable to play. Every iconic slot game has had a little luck along the way and Rainbow Riches is exactly the same, but there has been a lot of hard work and effort behind the scenes in order to be in the right places to get that luck as well. The Rainbow Riches bonus rounds are now famous in their own right and the Pots of Gold, Wishing Well, and Road to Riches features are all highly spoken about by stakers across the park.
The three bonus rounds that kicked off the Rainbow Riches story are now perhaps some of the most famous in Stakersland. The best part about this is how some slot games only focus their attention on one bonus round, whereas Rainbow Riches dared to go all out and provide three bonus rounds right from the start. The decision was a success and they have built on that with lots of new and exciting ideas ever since, but those three original bonus rounds still make an appearance in some of the new games to this very day. Here they are with seven other top features found within the Rainbow Riches series:
Pots of Gold The Pots of Gold feature is possibly the most iconic of the three as it is all based around those famous pots of gold at the end of rainbow. To trigger the feature, you will need to spin three of the ‘Pots of Gold’ symbols on reels 2, 3, and 4. You will then be taken to see Lucky O’Leary himself who stands upon a rock with his Bronze, Silver, and Gold pots swirling around him. Your prize is then determined by whichever pot comes to a stop next to the arrow, this could be anything from 50x to 500x your total bet.
The Wishing WellThe Wishing Well feature is activated once you spin three of the ‘Wishing Well’ symbols anywhere on the reels. Once you do this then you will get taken to another bonus round screen that lets you simply pick one of three different wishing wells. You will win the prize that is linked to the wishing well that you pick, and this can range from anything between 2x and up to 500x your total bet. Pick and click and the prize is yours, because as we said earlier, this is simple and charming gameplay at its best.
Road to RichesThe Road to Riches feature is perhaps the one image that most stakers remember from their time playing the Rainbow Riches slot game. Once again you need to spin at least three of the ‘Road to Riches’ symbols anywhere on the reels to trigger it. A colourful cash pathway emerges, and you need to spin the wheel to determine how many steps you take up the path to collect the cash prizes. You can spin anywhere from one to six steps which means you will get multiple spins of the wheel, and the game ends when you either hit the end prize of 500x your bet total or you spin the ‘Collect’ option and take your current winnings.
Lucky LeprechaunIn the Leprechaun’s Gold game, you can trigger a feature called Lucky Leprechaun by landing the related bonus symbol fully on a reel. The symbol is designed with none other than Lucky O’Leary himself giving you the thumbs up and it has the ability to throw up even more bonus symbols onto the reels. The end result is that you have a much bigger chance of landing winning paylines and extra cash prizes, but it does not stop there because it can also help you to trigger another feature in the game called the Rainbow Ring feature.
Drops of GoldThe Rainbow Riches Drops of Gold slot game takes you to the very end of one of Lucky O’Leary’s rainbows, and this is where the bonus round comes into play. The end of the rainbow is filled with a 5x4 grid called the ‘drop zone’. You then need to land one of the Drops of Gold bonus symbols anywhere on the reels during the base game to trigger the bonus round. Once triggered, all the pots of gold that are inside the ‘drop zone’ will drop down into the main game screen as Wilds to create even more winning combinations.
Big BetThe Big Bet feature can be found in nearly all the Rainbow Riches games and is known to be a favourite amongst the staker communities. In simple terms, the Big Bet idea gives you quick access to the game’s bonus rounds in return for a one-off bet amount. You can activate varying levels of the Big Bet feature depending on how much you are willing to wager, and so the top levels can sometimes give you access to a bonus round that plays with several features at once. You will quickly appreciate the boost in winning potential when you do choose the Big Bet feature, but they do not come cheap and so they are suited to the bigger stakers out there.
Rainbow RingThe Rainbow Ring is perhaps one of the most colourful Rainbow Riches bonus rounds yet and it can be found in the Leprechaun’s Gold slot game, from which there seems to be a never-ending supply of bonus features. Three or more of the Lucky O’Leary bonus symbols anywhere on the reels will trigger the feature into action, and this will take you through to a separate screen with O’Leary standing in the middle of a rainbow coloured ring. The rainbow is full of various prizes including the Wild Rover symbols, free spins, and the elusive ‘?’ symbol. Once the rainbow ring stops to a halt then then whatever prize the arrow is pointing to will be yours to claim.
Knock KnockOpen up the Home Sweet Home slot game and you’ll come across the ‘Knock Knock’ feature which is linked to the Lucky O’Leary bonus symbol. He really does get everywhere and this time you need to spin the symbol fully into reel one, if you do that then he will grant you access to open up two of the wooden doors found above the reels. Each symbol behind the door will turn into Wilds on the reels and if you get really lucky and reveal the fairy then she has the power to transform up to five symbols into Wilds as well. The ‘Knock Knock’ bonus round has the ability to turn just one spin into a huge winning opportunity.
Infinity GamesThe Rainbow Riches Cluster Magic is a feature-rich slot game that not only brings the world of cluster pays to the Rainbow Riches series, but it also includes a bonus feature called Infinity Games. You need to trigger the Free Spin bonus round first and this is achieved by winning six consecutive cascades which gives you eight free spins, as well as a spin on the bonus wheel for one of three additional features; Infinity Spins, Persisting Wilds, or Wild Rain. Infinity Spins gives you an extra free spin on top of the initial eight whenever you hit a winning spin. Also, a multiplier starts at 1x and then increases by one with every winning spin as well. The free spins can reach up to 250 and the multiplier win is unlimited which all helps to create some potentially lucrative rewards.
Super GemThe Super Gem feature can be found in the Rainbow Riches Megaways slot game and it is directly linked to that mysterious top reel found above the main playing area. Essentially, if you land a Super Gem symbol anywhere in the top reel then it has the power to create a lot of extra winning chances. The Super Gem will turn every single gem on the reels, including those alongside it in the top reel, into one randomly selected gem symbol. It does not take a genius to realise the huge winning potential when you combine the power of the Super Gem feature with the game’s Megaways design.
Gameplay The original Rainbow Riches slot game is on a 5x3 slot grid with 20 variable paylines and a maximum of 25,000 coins are available to win, and this was the standard setup of an online slot game back in 2009. There is nothing special about the slot in terms of the way it is designed apart from that it is easy to play, and those bonus rounds that we explained above are all super simple to understand as well.
Before you hit the spin button, a few adjustments are usually required to ensure that you are playing to your budget. Choosing the right number of paylines and then the bet per line amount enables you to fine tune the total bet per spin cost, which is displayed next to the ‘Win’ and ‘Spin’ boxes. All you need to do then is to click ‘Spin’ to get the reels in motion and then wait for them to come to a stop. You can adjust the total bet cost after each spin and the range of €0.01 to €500 gives stakers of all budgets a welcoming reason to play.
Playing the total number of paylines always gives you a better chance of winning and you can always learn more about these paylines, along with all the prizes and bonus round descriptions in the pay table within the game.

A quick overview of the RTP (return to player) is described as the total amount of money the game will payout over its lifetime. It is calculated over millions of spins, so it is not something that you should take as 100% factual information nor a representation of what you can win as an individual staker. The RTP is simply an average based on the game design and gameplay behaviour.
The RTP for Rainbow Riches will depend on the game that you have open but all slot games within the series are within the range of 95% and 98%. Our experts have found that the Pick’n’Mix slot game offers the highest RTP of 98%, but as all the seasoned veterans of the Rainbow Riches series will know, the maximum RTP is only set if the Big Bet feature is active. Also, keep in mind that these RTP rates are connected to the complete lifecycle of the game and is not comparable to an hour-long gaming session consisting of two hundred spins, for example.
The Rainbow Riches paytable holds the biggest win of 500x your total bet, which is anywhere from €0.01 to €500, although this can drop down to 2x as the lowest possible prize. Slot volatility refers to the reward versus risk scenario of the game with higher volatility providing more risk with bigger and less frequent payouts, and lower volatility providing less risk with smaller and more frequent payouts. There is a middle ground that some stakers prefer to play and these are called medium volatility slots, and Rainbow Riches falls within that category with regular payouts that differ between large and small amounts.
While a slot game with medium volatility is an even playing ground for both novices and experienced stakers, it is also a useful steppingstone for intermediate stakers who are willing to play with an increased level of risk to try and win some bigger prizes. Furthermore, the fact that Rainbow Riches allows you to play with such a large range of total bet amounts and allows you to fine tune your stakes, this does help to counteract some of those risks.
