Irish Party reels and paylines on a five-by-three grid

Fifteen positions, thirty ways across them

Three rows on five reels gives fifteen symbol positions, and thirty fixed lines run across them from the left. Thirty lines on fifteen positions means most positions sit on several lines at once, which is why a single landing can light up more than one result and why the game highlights the pattern it is paying rather than leaving you to count.

The paylines are fixed, not a number you set. The stake is spread across all thirty, which is the arrangement behind the bet range two catalogues print for this title: 0.30 at the bottom and 60 at the top. Both figures are theirs, not the studio's, and an operator can narrow that range further on its own site.

Nothing about the base game changes while a feature is running. The rectangle stays a rectangle; the rounds add fixed coins, expanded symbols and counters on top of it. That is the single most useful thing to know before any of the rest of this site makes sense.

The middle column does more work than the other four

Two of the three things that can take the game over start on reel three and nowhere else. A pot of gold there opens the coin round. A jar there expands to fill the whole column, turns wild, stays put and sets the other four reels spinning again. Both rules come from the studio's own launch note, in those words.

That concentration is a design choice with a readable consequence: the middle column is the one to watch, and the game frames it so that you do. Our capture of the running game shows the same thing from the other side — the centre reel is lit differently from its neighbours even in ordinary play, before anything has happened on it.

The two hats and the wheel do not care where they land. They are scatters: counted across the grid rather than along a line. Our notes on the title put the free-spin symbols on reels two, three and four; the studio instead describes the free spins as arriving through a small matching game, which is covered on the features page.

What the three bars above the reels are

A strip sits over the grid carrying three figures, labelled Minor, Grand and Major. They are not a progressive jackpot in the usual sense: an operator page listing this title answers the jackpot question with a flat no. They are the three named prizes that belong to the coin round, shown in cash so that they rise and fall with the stake you have set.

There is also a vertical bar down the left-hand edge of the stage. That is the accumulator for the fusion round — the thing that fills during ordinary play rather than triggering on a spin. Two different progress readings, in two different places, doing two unrelated jobs.
