Leprechaun’s Diamond Dig (Play’n GO) – Review & Demo Play

Leprechaun's Diamond Dig: Slot Overview

I went underground with Leprechaun’s Diamond Dig on a 5x4 layout with 12 fixed paylines paying left to right. Stakes run from 10p to £50 a spin, sitting on a medium volatile model with a top RTP configuration of 96.2%. There’s no wild symbol here, which shifts focus to Diamonds that can form line wins and act as money symbols. The real hook lives above the reels, where two minecarts can turn lucky and collect Diamonds via Reel Blast or the all-grid Mega Blast.

Leprechaun’s Diamond Dig Gameplay and Mechanics

Wins start from the leftmost reel across 12 lines, with only the highest per line paid. Above the grid sit two minecarts that may become lucky when the leprechaun peeks out. When a single lucky cart rests over a reel, Reel Blast triggers and sweeps all Diamonds on that reel. If both lucky carts align over the same reel, Mega Blast fires and gathers every Diamond on the grid in one go, which is where the game can really swing.

Diamonds can land on any reel carrying prize values of 1x to 50x the bet when collected by a Blast. Meanwhile, line pays carry steady weight: the 10–A ranks return 10x for five-of-a-kind, while wheels, picks, lanterns, and hats pay from 50x up to 200x for a full line. With no wilds to stitch wins together, progress hinges on clean line hits and the timing of those minecart events that hoover up the money symbols.

Symbols in Leprechaun’s Diamond Dig

Low pays are the 10 through A card ranks, worth 10x the stake for five-of-a-kind. Premiums are wheels, picks, lanterns, and hats, returning between 50x and 200x for five. Diamonds behave in two ways: they form their own line wins up to 40x the bet, and they also serve as money symbols. That split role matters, since you can pick up tidy line hits and still rely on a Blast to vacuum extra value when Diamonds land well.

Diamond money symbols appear on any reel with prize tags from 1x to 50x the bet, paid when a Reel Blast or Mega Blast triggers. Scatters trigger the bonus: landing 3, 4, or 5 in the base game awards 10 free spins, with 4 or 5 also paying 20x or 100x on top. There is no wild symbol in this slot, so the paytable plays straight, and the collect mechanics do the heavy lifting when the minecarts turn lucky.

Leprechaun’s Diamond Dig Slot Features

Minecart Collection drives most of the excitement. Two minecarts sit above the reels and may become lucky when the leprechaun pops up. With one lucky cart positioned over a reel, Reel Blast collects every Diamond on that reel. With both lucky carts over the same reel, Mega Blast triggers and collects all Diamonds across the entire grid. Because Diamonds can land anywhere carrying 1x to 50x values, the right cart alignment can turn an average spin into a tidy pickup.

Free spins trigger when 3, 4, or 5 scatters land, awarding 10 free spins; hitting 4 or 5 also adds 20x or 100x the bet as a payout. During free spins both minecarts are always lucky, so Reel Blast or Mega Blast is on the table every spin. That shift in cadence makes the bonus feel far punchier than base, as you’re constantly sweating the cart positions and hoping to chain Diamond collections without burning through the round too quickly.

Lucky Clover symbols appear only in free spins and can be collected by the carts to fill the Mega Blast Multiplier Meter. Reaching set tiers applies a multiplier to Diamond winnings during a Mega Blast and grants extra spins: 3 clovers give x2 and +8 spins; 6 clovers give x5 and +6; 9 clovers give x10 and +4; 12 clovers give x25 and +2. When Mega Blast lands with a built multiplier, the collect can spike sharply, which is where session highs tend to come from.

Leprechaun’s Diamond Dig RTP, Volatility, and Betting Range

The most favourable RTP setting is 96.2%, paired with a medium volatility profile that keeps the ride measured rather than feral. The max win caps at 3,000x the bet, so the ceiling is modest by modern standards, though reachable when Mega Blasts line up with Diamond density and a multiplier in free spins. Betting spans from 10p to £50 per spin, with 12 fixed paylines. Returns hinge on Diamond frequency and how often the carts convert them into collected wins.

Leprechaun’s Diamond Dig Theme and Visuals

The mine is a clean, attractive scene with a cascading waterfall in the backdrop and gems poking through the rock. Shamrocks pepper the setting, and the leprechaun rides the minecarts above the reels, keeping you aware of the collect game. Wooden tracks, lanterns, and kit round out the mining vibe without fuss. It looks exactly like you’d expect from a low-key Irish mine theme, tidy and readable, with symbols that pop clearly against the darker shaft.

Audio keeps things bouncy with a jolly Celtic flavour that suits the setting. Small animations, like the leprechaun peeking from the carts, give the grid a bit of life without getting in the way. It’s not a show-stopper, yet it’s coherent and friendly on the eyes across long sessions. For me, the presentation does its job: it frames the collect mechanics cleanly so you can track Diamonds and cart positions without distraction when the features start to roll.

Final Verdict on Leprechaun’s Diamond Dig

From my seat, this is a tidy reskin of a prior studio release, with mechanics that work well but offer little in the way of fresh thinking. The minecart collecting and clover meter can deliver sharp bursts, yet the 3,000x cap keeps a lid on the dreamer’s run. Medium volatility and no wilds make it about timing carts rather than stacking lines. I’ll give it spins when I fancy a straightforward collect feature, but I won’t be chasing marathon sessions.
