Pragmatic Play · 2025
Irish Crown is a five reel, three row Pragmatic Play video slot with twenty fixed paylines, high volatility and a Crown Ladder on every spin. This page sets out its payouts, bonus rounds and limits.
The demo runs free; the real game needs an account and you must be 18+.
Irish Crown puts you in front of five reels and three rows, in pale green and gold, with a Rainbow-Jackpot mood but no pots of gold sitting around. Twenty paylines sit on the grid, and a win needs at least three matching symbols on one of them, read left to right. Alongside the reels runs a counter that adds up CROWN symbols anywhere on the screen, whether they form a line or not.
The crown count is what separates this game from the provider's other reels. It pays out from three crowns upward, feeds a hold-and-respin bonus at the tenth, and runs beside a free spins round where a leprechaun turns low cards into crowns. Nothing here copies the standard scatter-only layout.

Round Walkthrough
Read this first if you want the shape of a round before committing any money.
Set your stake anywhere from A$0.20 to A$240 before the reels move, then use the bet control to lock it in for the spin. Most players start small and keep the stake flat across a session.
Twenty fixed paylines run across the 5x3 grid, and combinations pay left to right from reel one. Match at least three symbols on an active line and the paytable credits that line's value for the stake you chose.
Every spin also runs the Crown Ladder: three to nine CROWN symbols landing anywhere on the grid return between 1x and 40x your total stake. WILD substitutes for all paying symbols to complete lines.
Land three or more SCATTER symbols and 10 free spins open on a night-time reel set; a LEPRECHAUN on reel five then turns low cards into CROWNs as the round advances.
Decide your stopping point before the reels spin, once the stake is set. Leaving at that figure keeps the session about the game rather than about chasing a number.
What Each Symbol Returns
These payouts are in money at A$0.40 per spin, and matching more symbols on a line pays more.

Understanding the Features
This block settles how each bonus starts, so nothing surprises you mid-round.
Landing 3 or more SCATTER symbols starts 10 free spins on a night-time reel set. A retrigger of 1, 2 or 3 SCATTER symbols adds +2, +5 or +10 spins, and the LEPRECHAUN on reel 5 turns 10-J-Q-K-A into CROWN symbols as the round runs.
Base reels10 spins
Hitting the 10th CROWN symbol on the grid starts the BIG MONEY bonus. Landed CROWNs lock in place while empty positions respin with only CROWN or blank symbols, until no new CROWN lands or the grid fills. The final count of 10-14 CROWNs pays 50x/75x/100x/150x/200x total bet.
Ten Crown hitsLocked Crown grid
Each paid spin uses 5 reels by 3 rows and 20 fixed paylines, with wins paying left to right. The Crown Ladder panel stays active on every spin: 3-9 CROWN symbols anywhere on the grid award 1x/2x/5x/10x/20x/30x/40x total bet.
Your betLadder awards
Ante Bet raises the total bet by a 1.25 multiplier: the A$2 example spin costs A$2.50 instead. That higher stake is what you pay for the chance of extra CROWN symbols, so weigh the cost against the base ladder before switching it on.

Decide with nothing at stake
Imperial Casino leaves that call to you and keeps the free version open to anyone.
A demo run costs nothing and returns nothing, so you can study the reels without risk. Real play needs an Imperial Casino account and the legal age, and every win is cash.
Play nowPlan your session knowing that when the bonus round arrives is never shown in advance, and that any single session can end ahead or behind whatever RTP the reels run at. Each spin is independent, so a long dry spell tells you nothing about the next one.
Check the game rules inside the slot before you stake anything: the payout percentage the reels here actually run at is stated there, and not on this page, so a version running at a slightly different figure is possible elsewhere.
Treat the x5,000 maximum win as the roof of the game, not a target you can plan around. Reaching it takes an exceptional run in the bonus round, and most sessions finish far below that ceiling.
Know the bet
Most players worry about the maximum win and the RTP before they stake anything.
Pick any bet from A$0.20 to A$240 and the rules stay the same. Irish Crown runs on 5 reels, 3 rows and 20 fixed paylines, with wins paying left to right, and the same layout applies at the smallest stake.
Decide whether to buy the free spins, since the price follows your bet. Buy Free Spins costs 100 times the current total bet, which is A$200 at the A$2 example top bet. The round starts at once, without waiting for three SCATTER symbols.
Choose a stake from A$0.20 up to A$240 per spin, which is the highest bet allowed here. Set your stake at the lowest level to see how rounds run and what each spin costs.
Choose the bet first, because the maximum win is a multiple of it. At the top bet of A$240 the ceiling reads A$1,200,000, which is 5,000 times the stake. Whether a session reaches it cannot be known in advance.
Irish Crown has two RTP versions, and the table on this page shows what each one returns on A$100 staked. RTP describes the return across very many rounds, not the result of one session. A single session can finish well above or below it.
Land three or more SCATTER symbols anywhere on the grid to start 10 free spins on the night-time reel set. Each retrigger with 1, 2 or 3 SCATTER adds 2, 5 or 10 spins.
