How the Top Tracker moves
Regular symbols form left-to-right combinations across 20 fixed paylines on the 5×3 reels. The Wild can land on every reel and substitute for standard symbols, while the leprechaun follows separate Top Tracker collection rules.
Five random prizes appear above the reels and move one position left after each new spin, revealing another value. A leprechaun landing on a reel collects the prize currently displayed above that exact column.
When the tracker awards Super Free Spins, four 3×5 matrices become available. The number shown on the triggering symbol determines how many matrices play on each spin, while the Top Tracker remains active with feature-specific prizes.
How leprechaun positions affect prizes
- 20 lines: Regular wins follow a fixed left-to-right structure.
- Wild: The substitute supports lines but not leprechaun collection.
- Top Tracker: Five prize positions shift left after each spin.
- Collector: A leprechaun claims the prize above its reel.
- Four grids: Super Free Spins can display multiple 3×5 matrices.
- Grid count: The trigger symbol sets active matrices per spin.
Tracker timing and payout limits
Base-game value is divided between ordinary payline wins and prizes collected from the Top Tracker. A visible high tracker amount cannot pay unless a leprechaun lands on the corresponding reel before that prize moves away.
Super Free Spins increase the number of simultaneous matrices rather than changing the tracker rule. More active grids create additional leprechaun landing positions, but the displayed prizes still depend on exact column alignment.
The x5,000 maximum requires tracker awards and line wins to align across the expanded feature state. The moving sequence creates timing variation, while no displayed prize is banked until the collector lands beneath it.
Player fit and limitations
- May suit: Players tracking moving prizes above fixed paylines.
- May suit: Players comparing one-grid and multi-grid bonus play.
- May not: Players wanting persistent prize values between sessions.
- May not: Players who dislike exact reel-position collectors.
A displayed prize can move away before a leprechaun lands.
