Gaelic Gold slot review (Nolimit City)

Nolimit City is a Swedish game provider that is hard on its way to becoming a top-level slot developer

Their slots are often very distinctive, besides having original outstanding themes.

On that note, Gaelic Gold was a bit of a disappointment: slots about the Irish leprechaun, with all the cliches attached (rainbows, pots of gold, Guinness beer), are already a dime a dozen.

Luckily, Nolimit City has provided enough surprises with this slot as well, so the whole slot game is still quite easy to digest.

On the whole, it may not be their best job, but it is still better than most online slots out there on the internet.

Gaelic Gold gameplay and features

Gaelic Gold is a very straight forward slot, with three reels, three rows of symbols and five paylines.

You can bet from 5 cents up to a maximum of $€ 100. Deposit a few tenners, and you will have fun for a couple of hours.

The maximum win is considerable: 9,837 x the total bet. This will only manifest if absolutely everything goes ‘according to plan.’ Such a payout is just extremely rare.

The variance is, therefore, medium: if you win more than 1,000 x the bet, then you may count your blessings.

This theoretical payout rate is 96.15%.

The payout table has also been simplified as much as possible. All symbols only award you with a 3-of-a-kind, and the golden clovers, four, and wilds are yield the most: 15 x the total bet.

Other high symbols are the horseshoe and the beer mug, worth respectively 10 x and 6 x the total bet with 3 of the same on an active payline.

Nudging Wilds

The Nudging Wild Feature is a creative Nolimit City invention, and they, rightly so, are proud as a peacock: in almost every game of this provider, this feature is included.

If a wild symbol drops on or just above the center payline on the reels, it nudges to the middle of the reel. Each nudge that is needed for this provides a +1 multiplier.

Free spins bonus

As soon as the pot of gold lands right in the middle of the screen, you’ll have landed the free spins bonus.

You always start with 5 free spins, which, of course, isn’t a whole lot.

Luckily, you also get to pick coins, with extra boosters hidden behind them.

As long as you haven’t hit “Start,” you can continue to choose.

The following values are hidden behind the coins:

• Extra free spins: up to +25 free spins
• Additional multipliers: up to x 5
• Extra paylines: a maximum of + 4 paylines (divided between two coins)

Because of these extra boosters, even a perfectly normal free spins bonus gets a considerable adrenaline boost, especially if you’ve managed to score big multipliers and extra paylines.

By the way, if you have the cash and you are in a hurry, you can also choose to buy the bonus feature for 50 x the total bet. This also gives you a minuscule extra advantage: the Return to Player will be a tad higher by 0.05%.

Our verdict on Gaelic Gold

The Gaelic Gold video slot is a successful but somewhat “ordinary” Nolimit City release. After the whirlwind of releases like Punk Rocker, and Barbarian Fury, the Gaelic Gold slot is quite tame.

Still, Gaelic Gold certainly brings more than enough to the table to have fun: the extra boosters you get during the free spins bonus can result in handsome payouts.

And those Nudging Wilds, a real Nolimit City trait, are, of course, still a brilliant find.

We are confident you will find this slot entertaining!?

3.7 out of 5 stars.
