Rainbow Riches Slot Review

As part of our expanded gaming coverage on Betfred Insights, we will be doing regular slot reviews of new and classic games that you can find on the Betfred Games website. 

Next up is one of the all-time classics that was released by Barcrest way back in 2009. Here is our Rainbow Riches Slot review...

Rainbow Riches is a contender for the most popular slot game in the United Kingdom and is our most-played game here at Betfred Games. Load the game up which is now over 15 years old and you'll immediately understand why!

This classic 5x3 grid slot features classic fairy tale iconography, with leprechauns, rainbows and gold and silver coins. Some may say it now looks a little dated but we prefer iconic and this game certainly brings back waves of nostalgia to anyone who has ever played it.

You will also recognise this game from the fruit machines in the pubs up and down the land, as the game was exported to thousands of land-based machines due to its popularity.

The main reason this game took off wasn't its crazy max wins (it pays a max of 500x stake) or its killer graphics. It was down to it's simple but genius bonus rounds.

They are:

Road to Riches - A Snakes and Ladders-esque multiplier trail, where you roll a dice and the leprechaun skips merrily along the trail. There are pitfalls on the way but if you make it all the way to the end you can hit the max 500x stake payout.

Pots of Gold - If you land three pot scatter symbols you will be taken to the Pots of Gold bonus round. You'll see a spinner and 12 different pots, all containing multiplier wins. The possible returns go from 50x to 500x stake.

Wishing Well - Last but not least is the Wishing Well bonus, where you get to pick your own win. Again the top prize is a very decent 500x stake.

This game, as you would expect, has spawned a myriad of upgrades, spin-offs and copies but the OG Rainbow Riches still holds its place at the very top of UK slot gaming.

Now where did I put that leprechaun hat?
