Rainbow Riches

Rainbow Riches is a 5-reel, 3-row slot from Barcrest, distributed by Light & Wonder. Its published return to player is 96.00%.

How Rainbow Riches plays

A 5x3, 20-line game with three separate bonuses. Three to five Road to Riches scatters start a trail bonus where a wheel moves the player up a path of rising multipliers (the five-scatter Mega version reaches 500x). Three or more Wishing Well symbols trigger a pick from the well, and three Pots of Gold start a wheel that lands on a bronze, silver or gold prize.

Theme: Irish folklore, leprechaun. Filed under Irish and luck.

Features in this game

  • Free spins: A bonus round of spins played at no extra cost, usually triggered by scatter symbols and often with extra features.
  • Pick bonus: A bonus round where you choose from hidden items on screen to reveal prizes, multipliers or the end of the round.
  • Wheel bonus: A bonus round where a prize wheel is spun to award a cash prize, multiplier, feature or jackpot.

What the figures mean

An RTP of 96.00% is a long-run average across millions of spins. It works out at a house edge of 4.00%, so every £100 staked costs £4.00 on average. A session of 200 spins at £1 stakes £200, and the expected cost of that session is £8.00, although the real result will usually land a long way either side. Work out your own figures.

Several versionsLight & Wonder offers Rainbow Riches at 96%, 94%, 92%, 90%, 88%, 87%. The casino picks one. The difference matters: over £1,000 of stakes, 96% and 87% differ by £90.00 in expected cost.
Playing in Great BritainL&W lists the GDM build with UK release 16/07/2025 and a UK max bet of 5.00 (20.00 elsewhere). Whether that build has replaced the original Barcrest game at a given casino is not stated. Every online slot in GB runs with a minimum 2.5 seconds per spin, no autoplay and a stake cap of £5 per spin (£2 if you are 18 to 24). The GB rules.
