Introduction to 3 Pots O' Riches Megaways
3 Pots O' Riches Megaways is a casino slot from Blueprint Gaming that dresses up the classic leprechaun-luck theme with a Megaways twist. Anyone who has ever even glared at a casino slot knows about leprechauns. It’s a small mythical Irish creature that often wears a coat and a big hat. It’s said that he has hidden a treasure at the end of the rainbow, which most people will never be able to find because the leprechaun is too smart and tricky. In this game, the green-dressed little man comes with a collect feature and Megaways reels, which can expand up to 5 rows tall. Do you have what it takes to outsmart this little fellow?

Theme, Gameplay & Payouts
3 Pots O' Riches Megaways is a video slot from Blueprint Gaming with 6 reels, 2-5 rows, and up to 15,615 ways to win. The betting range starts with the Min.bet of 0.1, and ends at the Max.bet of 25. The RTP of 94% is a disappointment, but the max win of 10,000x the bet is solid. The game has mid-high volatility.
The game takes us to a green meadow on a clear day. The dark-green reels in the middle of the screen have a golden frame, and above them is a rainbow. You can also find a trail above the reels, where you can advance when landing Collect Symbols. To the left of the reels are three pots, representing the 3 Free Spin modes. To score a win, you need to land 3 or more matching symbols on adjacent reels, starting on the first reel to the left. The game is fully compatible with digital devices, such as mobile phones, notepads, and desktops.
The lower-paying symbols in 3 Pots O' Riches Megaways are 9, 10, J, Q, K, and A. They pay between 1x and 1.5x the bet for wins of 6 symbols. The higher-paying symbols are horseshoe, hat, pint, harp, and four-leaf clover. These five symbols pay between 2x and 5x the bet for wins of 6 symbols. The Wild Symbol is a mushroom that substitutes for all regular-paying symbols to complete winning combinations. However, it does not substitute the Collect, Wishing Well, Cash Prize, or Bonus Symbol.

What features are available in the slot 3 Pots O' Riches Megaways?
The features are Wild Symbol, Collect Feature, You Lucky Mate Modifiers, Bonus Spins, and Enhanced Bonus Spins.
Wild Symbol
Wild Symbols can pop up anywhere except on the first reel to the left. They substitute all regular-paying symbols in making winning combinations, but they don’t substitute the Collect, Wishing Well, Cash Prize, or Bonus symbols.
Collect Feature
The Collect Symbol is active on reels 1 and 6 when you start the game, while the Cash Prize Symbol can land anywhere on the grid. Whenever a Cash Prize Symbol appears on the same spin as a Cash Prize Symbol, the Collect Symbol will expand to cover the entire reel and collect the values of all visible Cash Symbols.
Every Collect Symbol that lands will make a mark on the trail above the reels, taking you one step further. It will also gradually unlock You Lucky Mate Modifiers as you advance along the trail.
You Lucky Mate Modifiers
The “You Lucky Mate” modifier randomly triggers on any spin and awards one of the following modifiers:
Hidden Treasure: Turns at least one whole reel into Cash Prize or Wishing Well symbols and adds a Collect Symbol.
Bonus Boost: Adds extra Bonus symbols to the reels.
Fireworks Blast: Upgrades random symbols to the best-paying ones or to Wild Symbols.
Dig In: Removes the symbols from the grid and refills it with symbols that will make a guaranteed win.
Bonus Spins
The Bonus Symbols come in green, red, and blue, and they represent one of the three Free Spin modes. Landing 3 or more Bonus symbols triggers the Bonus or Enhanced Bonus Spins. Landing 1 or 2 Bonus Symbols may also trigger the feature if luck is on your side. A grid with 4, 5, or 6, Bonus Symbols will not only give you the feature but also a cash prize of 20x, 100x, and 500x the bet.
You will start the Free Spins with the modifier from the triggering Bonus Symbol:
Red Bonus Symbol: Guarantees 5 rows on every spin, giving you 15,625 ways to win.
Blue Bonus Symbol: Removes all symbols except Collect and Cash Prizes from the Reels.
Green Bonus Symbol: Boost the multipliers on the trail to 3x, 4x, 8x, and 20x, respectively.
Collecting 3 Collect Symbols during the feature awards 5 additional spins. You can win extra spins four times. Except for winning extra spins, you will also increase the win multiplier on every upgrade in the following way: 2x, 3x, 5x, and finally 10x.
Enhanced Bonus Spins
Enhanced Bonus Spins are only available once you reach the end of the unlock trail in the base game. When triggered, one or more Treasure Pots activate, granting Super/Mega/Ultra variants of the bonus. You then get 10 Enhanced Bonus Spins with the awarded upgrades, and the Collect feature remains active through these spins.
Final Thoughts on 3 Pots O' Riches Megaways
3 Pots O’ Riches Megaways is a slot that proves you don’t need to find the end of the rainbow to strike gold. All you need is a bit of patience, a dash of Irish luck, and maybe a cheeky wink at the leprechaun himself. It also proves that you don’t have to come up with a brand new invention to produce yet another casino slot. This Irish folklore tale absolutely has its charm, but it doesn’t bring anything you haven’t seen before.
With that said, we enjoy the good mix of expanding reels and mischievous modifiers. The Collect Feature also brings variation to the game, and the more Collect Symbols you land, the more modifiers unlock on the way.
The gameplay walks a delightful line between chaos and control. You never quite know what the You Lucky Mate modifiers will throw at you. Sometimes it’s a guaranteed win, and other times it’s a dazzling display of fireworks turning random symbols wild. However, the RTP of 94% is a real downer, but the max win of 10,000x feels alright. Many of the features are the same as in The Goonies Quest For Treasure 2. That game also has a higher RTP, so we suggest spinning it instead, unless you really want some Irish action. If you happen to want more leprechauns, you could check out 5 Pots O’ Riches.
3 Pots O' Riches Megaways from Blueprint Gaming is not groundbreaking, but a very rewarding game for any player who enjoys unlocking features while spinning the reels.
