Irish Eyes 2™ Slot

Irish Eyes 2™ Slot RTP, Details & Wager Limits

Irish Eyes 2™ has the traditional 5×3 setup. As is fairly common with old-fashioned online slots, the paylines are adjustable. So you can set between 1 and 25 paylines and form winners by landing three or more matching symbols on consecutive reels.

Stakes start from 25p up to £6.25 per spin for complete lines, far behind what you’ll find at most new online slots. The minimum bet per line is 0.1p, and it is capped at 25p per spin. If you are playing away from UK online casinos, you can set up to 100 auto spins (this feature is banned at UK online casinos).

The Irish Eyes 2™ RTP is 95.04%. It’s below average and would certainly not rank among the top RTP slots in the UK. On the bright side, it doesn’t come in lower variants, so you’ll get the same return value at all Irish Eyes 2™ casinos.

The medium variance promises balanced gameplay. In terms of the potential payout, the Irish Eyes 2™ max win sits at a decent 5,000x the bet. Still, it is lower than the 10,000x offered in the original Irish Eyes.

When playing the Irish Eyes 2™ demo, I found that the best shot at hitting the top prize came from stringing together five wilds on a spin. The demo is available in our free online slots library.

Irish Eyes 2™ Theme—Another Trip to the Beautiful Irish Countryside

When Irish eyes are smiling, the gold is shining in the Irish Eyes 2™ slot. No prizes for guessing that it celebrates all things relating to luck and the Emerald Isle, featuring typical stereotypes like a lucky four-leaf clover and a pot of gold. Even though our leprechaun friends don’t make an appearance in person, we get to see their familiar stovepipe hats and tobacco pipes.

NextGen Gaming sets the action in a woodland setting, but it would have been nice if the grid didn’t cover most of the details in the background. There are no upbeat melodies like in the best online slots. In fact, no soundtrack comes on when you launch the game—just sound effects when you hit the spin button and land a winner.

On the reels, traditional playing cards serve as low-paying symbols, while more thematic elements account for bigger payouts. See what the paytable looks like:

9	3, 4, 5 = 5x, 20x, 100x the stake
10	3, 4, 5 = 5x, 20x, 100x the stake
J	3, 4, 5 = 10x, 50x, 150x the stake
Q	3, 4, 5 = 10x, 50x, 150x the stake
K	3, 4, 5 = 15x, 75x, 200x the stake
A	3, 4, 5 = 15x, 75x, 200x the stake
Pipe	3, 4, 5 = 20x, 100x, 400x the stake
Clover	3, 4, 5 = 20x, 100x, 400x the stake
Hat	2, 3, 4, 5 = 4x, 50x, 250x, 750x the stake
Ring	2, 3, 4, 5 = 5x, 60x, 500x, 1500x the stake
Scatter | Pot of Gold	2, 3, 4, 5 = 2x, 4x, 15x, 100x the stake. 3+ triggers free spins
Wild | Red-Haired Woman	1, 2, 3, 4, 5 = 2x, 10x, 200x, 1,000x, 5,000x the stake. Substitutes for paying symbols

Irish Eyes 2™Mobile

After playing the Irish Eyes 2™ mobile slot at different mobile casinos, I can confirm that it runs smoothly. In particular, it adapts to smaller screens perfectly without causing slow loading times or any form of lag.

I didn’t notice much difference playing in portrait and landscape modes, as the visuals retain the same look.

Irish Eyes 2™ Bonus Features

With classic gameplay as its main attraction, please don’t expect much in the way of bonus features in the Irish Eyes 2™ slot game. As a matter of fact, it offers only Free Spins.

Free Games

Landing three or more Scatters in the base triggers the Free Games round. 3, 4, and 5 Scatters award 10, 15, and 20 free spins. Free Spins can be retriggered by hitting the same number of Scatters.

The bonus round uses the same mechanic as the base game, but here, payouts are three times bigger. For example, landing a complete line of four-leaf clover symbols on a free spin awards 1,200x the bet rather than 400x in the base game.

I triggered the round after over 200 spins, but I wasn’t lucky enough to retrigger it.

Irish Eyes 2™ Slot

If you enjoy classic gameplay with little extras and no complex mechanics, then Irish Eyes 2™ ticks all the boxes. However, it doesn’t build on the success of the original.

What we liked

• Wilds yield up to 5,000x the bet
• Simple gameplay

What we didn't

• Lacks innovative features
• Gameplay lacks excitement
• RTP below average
• Bets cap at £6.25 for complete lines

The Irish Eyes 2™ slot maintains the Irish charm we enjoyed in the original release. However, I wouldn’t say it is a monumental leap forward. It misses out on the Pick and Click feature, which was the highlight of the original. I had high hopes of picking even bigger prizes coming into this sequel; its absence is a significant letdown.

On the upside, you don’t need to reach the end of the rainbow to win the top prize of 5,000x the bet. In fact, it is as simple as landing a complete line of Wilds in the base game, the same formula the provider adopted in Funky Chicken™. Of course, the odds are heavily stacked against this happening.

Visually, it looks dated, but it is only natural since it was released back in 2013. If your priority is aesthetics and colourful designs, you might have to look at more recent slots.
