Rainbow Gold (Pragmatic Play) – Review & Demo Play

Rainbow Gold Slot Overview

I’ve spun Rainbow Gold enough to see what it’s about. A 5x3 Irish set-up with 20 paylines, a leprechaun on prize duty, and a Top Tracker running above the reels. Bets span 20p to £100, with an optional Ante Bet that costs 25% extra and raises the odds of landing the leprechaun. Default RTP comes in at 96.63% with lower variants in some builds, volatility is high, and payouts cap at 5,000x. Presentation is cheerful and familiar, but the prize reel adds movement.

Rainbow Gold Stats: Real RTP, Volatility & Max Win

On the maths front I’ve tracked the key figures from trusted runs. Default RTP sits at 96.63% while alternative settings such as 95.54% and 94.57% exist, so I always check the info screen. Volatility is high, and the hit rate hovers around 1 in 3.87, with Super Free Spins showing about 1 in 231.7. The top exposure is 5,000x the bet. Turning on Ante Bet costs a quarter more per spin and tends to increase leprechaun frequency across both game phases.

In practice the base game drip-feeds small Top Tracker awards, many of them minor direct-money hits, which helps keep momentum while you wait for the feature. The prize reel states are stored per stake, so changing bet size will shift what you see above the reels. Most of the heavy lifting sits in Super Free Spins, where added prize types and extra reel sets can swing the session far quicker than the main mode ever does. That’s where I’ve seen the largest spikes.

Rainbow Gold Symbols and Paytable

Symbols in Rainbow Gold hit left to right on 20 lines. Lows are 10, J, Q, K, A paying 1.25x to 2.5x for five of a kind. Premiums are the beer glass, well, horseshoe, green hat, and golden four-leaf clover, paying 4x to 20x for five. The wild stands in for regulars and pays up to 25x for a five-symbol hit. Payouts follow the classic three-to-five symbol ladder across the 5x3 grid.

The leprechaun is not a substitute or scatter in the usual sense. When he lands, he claims the prize shown directly above on the Top Tracker. That can be a direct cash amount, a collect of everything in view, or the Super Free Spins entry. In the feature that behaviour repeats on each active reel set, only with richer values and more prize types in the mix. It’s a simple collector role that ties the whole set-up together without clutter.

Top Tracker and Prize Collection in Rainbow Gold

Running above the five reels, the Top Tracker cycles five prizes one step left on every spin, inserting a new one on the right. Land a leprechaun beneath any prize and you take what sits above. In the base game these prizes are direct money between 2x and 100x, an All In View that collects all current tracker values, or the Super Free Spins trigger. Prize states are saved per stake level, so altering your bet swaps the set displayed overhead.

Super Free Spins in Rainbow Gold

Super Free Spins only trigger from the tracker. The trigger icon can show a number between 1 and 4, which determines how many 5x3 reel sets start active. You begin with eight spins. Each set comes with its own tracker strip, and the leprechaun can appear on any of them to award the prize sitting above. It mirrors the base mechanics, yet the event density rises and the extra reel sets create parallel chances on the same spin, which is where sessions can pivot.

Enhanced prizes replace the base trio here. Direct money expands to 2x up to 500x the bet. All In View pays all tracker values on that set, while Super All In View rakes every value shown across all active sets at once. You can land retriggers worth two, three, or five spins. There’s also a prize that makes one of the locked sets active, widening the screen for the remaining spins and adding another tracker strip to target with the leprechaun.

From my sessions, leprechauns fall more often during Super Free Spins, so you see prize hits much quicker than in base play. The tempo can feel slower if several sets are active, yet the upside grows with every extra set that turns on, especially when a Super All In View appears. It’s essentially the base game multiplied by up to four, only with higher ceilings on cash prizes and the ability to add spins, which is where the bigger outcomes have come.

Rainbow Gold Review Summary

Rainbow Gold leans on a very familiar Irish wrap, and I won’t pretend the look grabbed me. What kept me around was the Top Tracker drip of prizes and the way Super Free Spins layers the same idea across extra sets. With Ante Bet on, the leprechaun pops more often, though you pay for it. Adjustable RTP means I always check the number shown. If you’re after steady prize ticks and a four-set flourish at times, this does the job.
