Clover Riches brings us to the green meadows of Ireland as we go in search of a leprechaun that can help us play the game. Other things that might be helpful include Wilds, Free Spins and special Bonus symbols.

Developed and released in 2019 by studio Playson, this 5-reel, 3-row slot gives players the opportunity to find themselves in Ireland surrounded by familiar sights. In the background, we can see the rolling hills and blue sky that we’ve come to expect from this special country. Meanwhile, the playing field is filled with symbols that are either card letters or remind us of Irish culture in some way.

Everything looks fine but I wasn’t particularly blown away by anything. The graphics are sharp and detailed as can be expected, but there is very little movement in the game. The symbols aren’t animated in any particular way and the background is also completely standard. Even when there is a win on one of the 20 paylines, the game does very little to emphasise that.

The music choices in this slot are about the same, very obvious but good enough for the quality of the game. There are no weird sounds when there’s a win, you’ll hear a lot of bells and whistles. The soundtrack features the expected Irish folk music that many of us are familiar with. If you would ask a random person what kind of music they would select for a slot like this, you’d probably end up with the same thing.

Symbols

When it comes to the symbols in the game, most of them are what you’d expect in an online slot. The high-paying symbols are original and designed to fit the setting somehow, while the low-paying symbols are card letters that are used as filler. With a decent number of different symbols and not that many paylines, the game lands on High Volatility, which I felt fit my experience as well.

The symbols in the game include:

  • Bonus: Get 3 or more Bonus symbols to activate the Free Spins mode. Max. 200x your bet with five-of-a-kind on the screen.
  • Wild: Wilds substitute all other symbols except the Bonus symbol. Max. 500x your bet with five-of-a-kind on a win line.
  • Pot of Gold: Max. 30x your bet with five-of-a-kind on a win line.
  • Horseshoe: Max. 30x your bet with five-of-a-kind on a win line.
  • Hat: Max. 20x your bet with five-of-a-kind on a win line.
  • Beer Mug: Max. 10x your bet with five-of-a-kind on a win line.
  • Mushrooms: Max. 10x your bet with five-of-a-kind on a win line.
  • Ace: Max. 7.5x your bet with five-of-a-kind on a win line.
  • King: Max. 7.5x your bet with five-of-a-kind on a win line.
  • Queen: Max. 5x your bet with five-of-a-kind on a win line.
  • Jack: Max. 5x your bet with five-of-a-kind on a win line.
  • 10: Max. 5x your bet with five-of-a-kind on a win line.
  • 9: Max. 5x your bet with five-of-a-kind on a win line.

Players that are looking for more or less of a challenge can change their bets to between $0.20 and $100 per spin. As a way to keep players engaged, the game also offers a max. win of 3,570x your bet!

Features

Clover Riches includes a few different features to change up the gameplay somewhat. I found these to be rather simple but they did have an impact on the game. I think they offered a perfect compromise for players that enjoy the standard gameplay but would like to see it spiced up a little bit.

The features include:

  • Wild: Wilds substitute all other symbols in the game except the Scatter symbol.
  • Scatter: The Scatter Symbol counts towards a win regardless of its place on the screen. Get 3 or more Scatter symbols on the screen at the same time to activate the Free Spins mode.
  • Free Spins: During the Free Spins mode, players don’t have to use coins to bet but free spins are used. Players can win additional Free Spins during this mode.
  • Multiplier: Before the Free Spins start, players pick one of 3 modes with different multipliers.

While the base game is playing, players are only helped by the Wilds and Scatter features. The Wilds didn’t appear very often but were just as likely to help in creating a win. The Scatters appear to trigger the Free Spins mode, but getting any more than 1 on the screen at the same time will also award a win.

Once the Free Spins are activated, players can pick one of 3 modes:

  • Mode 1: Players receive a 2x multiplier and 24 free spins.
  • Mode 2: Players receive a 4x multiplier and 12 free spins.
  • Mode 3: Players receive a 6x multiplier and 8 free spins.

During each of these modes, it’s possible to retrigger additional spins with the Scatter symbols appearing on the screen. Even a single Scatter can add up to 5 free spins this way.

I found the Free Spins mode to be quite lucrative but it doesn’t play a lot different than the base game. Thanks to the multiplier feature, it is possible to get some impressive wins though.

Conclusion

Clover Riches takes a pretty tired trope as a source of inspiration and delivers a slot that can be categorised as decent. It has good graphics, but we can’t really expect anything less from a slot that is only a couple of years old. The sounds are nice but completely unoriginal. Finally, the features are a nice addition but also offer nothing new.

That’s not to say this slot has no merits. There are obviously many players that enjoy something familiar and with tried and true gameplay. Players who have any experience with online slots at all will immediately understand how the game plays and what the features mean. In that way, it is an excellent answer for people looking for something nice and simple.

Power players will probably want to give this game a pass because although it has high volatility I didn’t feel like this volatility offered any major wins. At the same time, people that enjoy highly experimental slots will also not find what they are looking for.
