Patrick's Magic Field - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

This Irish themed slot from Evoplay is a battleship style game rather than a traditional reel slot. It’s played on a 5 reel by 5 row game grid with 20 tiles. At the game’s easiest level, you can find lucky shamrocks behind nineteen of the tiles which increase your winnings. BUT behind one of the tiles is a bomb. Click on the bomb and you’ll lose all of your winnings and the game will end. You can collect your winnings at any point so you’ll have to hold your nerve to try and choose as many shamrocks as you dare!

If you’d like to make the game harder, you can choose to include more bombs in the grid, giving you the chance to win bigger prizes but also increasing the risk of blowing up the grid, ending your game, and losing all of your winnings. You can choose to include up to 20 bombs in the game grid, giving you potentially 20 paylines, but bear in mind that if you do, there will only be 5 safe shamrock tiles to choose from out of the whole grid!

Patrick’s Magic Field has a very simple gameplay but, as they say, sometimes the simple things are the best! If you like the sound of this game and you’d like to give this and other Evoplay free play slots a whirl then you can visit Slots Temple for all of the best free play slots around.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

Join the mischievous leprechaun Evelina as she tries to protect her treasure on Rainbow Hill. Those brave enough to try and steal her gold should be warned: as well as gold, Evelina has buried mines beneath the field to catch out unwary treasure seekers! Choose shamrocks and you’ll be rewarded with winnings but choose a tile with a bomb underneath and your game will be over and the winnings lost. Throughout the game, Evelina sits by the side of the grid and watches your progress. It has to be said that there's nothing of the friendly leprechaun about her, and you get the firm feeling that she is waiting for you to slip up!

There are plenty of slots around with a similar Irish, leprechaun treasure theme (for example the similar Rainbow Riches slot) but this has to be one of the best games around this theme that we’ve seen. The graphics have been done really well and the background and animations sparkle with life. The game also includes some nice Irish whistle music as its soundtrack, which makes whole game feel as fresh as a Sligo morning.

As games don't last that long, they're quite exciting. In fact you might find yourself becoming quite light-headed as you hold your breath choosing the next game tile.

Patrick's Magic Field RTP and Variance

How to Play Patrick’s Magic Field

Here's a quick guide to get you playing this slot:

1. Get the game loaded up and have a read through the full game rules and paytable information by pressing the menu button. 
2. On the game screen you’ll need to select both your bet level and the number of bombs you’d like to include in the grid. If you don’t change these options the game will automatically give you the lowest number of bombs possible, which is one. You can change this at any point during the game and can choose to have up to 20 bombs in play if you’re feeling really brave. 
3. Once you’re ready, choose your selected tile and hold your breath to see if you turn over a shamrock or a bomb! You can also press the Random button and the game will choose a tile for you. If you land a shamrock you can choose another tile or collect your winnings. If you were unlucky and chose a bomb then the game is over and you'll have to restart.
4. Make sure you enjoy Patrick’s Magic Field responsibly by setting a time limit for your session. 

Bet & Win Sizes

The maximum win possible in the game is 10, 000x the bet. This would be for choosing the maximum bet and the maximum number of bombs in the grid. At the lowest level (playing with one bomb), the game multiplier will be the lowest but will increase with each shamrock you turn over. Therefore the possible wins will increase the more bombs you add to the playing field. The amount you could win for successfully turning over another shamrock tile is displayed above the game grid so you’ll always know what the win could be. The game has a good range of stakes, with the minimum bet being 1 and the maximum 500.
