Top o’ the Money is a 20-line, 5×4 leprechaun slot from Novomatic’s studio Mazooma that pays both ways, uses Freefall cascades and awards free spins for chains of five or more wins.
Top o’ the Money is a gentle Irish slot with a smart free-spins trigger: instead of scatters, you earn free spins by stringing together five or more wins in a single spin through its Freefall cascades. A random Colossal Reel bonus adds a multiplier reel on top, and wins pay in both directions.
The game was made by Mazooma, a Novomatic group studio, and is distributed online by Greentube. It sits at 2 on Greentube’s 1 to 5 volatility scale, so it is built for calm sessions rather than jackpot hunting.

Wins pay on 20 lines in both directions, so a combination can start on reel 1 or reel 5. When a win lands, the winning symbols explode and new ones fall into the gaps. Any new win pays and triggers another fall. This continues until a drop brings no win.
Above the reels sits a trail of arrows. Each win in the chain lights the next arrow, and a drop without a win clears the trail. That gives every winning spin a small sense of momentum. One win is nice, three wins in a row feel promising, and four means you are one step from free spins.
Reach the fifth position on the trail and you win 5 free spins. Six wins in a row light the sixth position for 7 spins, and seven or more award 10. Free spins play like the base game with extra Wilds added to some of the royal symbols, which makes further cascades more likely. Filling the trail again during the feature awards more free spins.
The trigger is the most interesting part of the game. You can see it coming, and a spin that keeps cascading builds real tension. It also means the feature is less about luck with scatters and more about long chains, which suits the both-ways layout.
Before any spin, the Colossal Reel Bonus can trigger at random. A single large reel appears and the leprechaun spins it several times. Each stop adds a multiplier shown at the side. At the end, the multipliers are added together and multiplied by your bet. Then you go back to the reels and play out the original spin as normal.
It is a pleasant surprise rather than a game-changer, but it does lift sessions that are going nowhere.
The standard version returns 96.05%, right on the benchmark many players use. A 92.12% version exists, so check the info panel at your casino. Our guide to slot RTP explains why that gap matters over time.
The hit frequency of about 14% is lower than you might expect for a low-volatility game, because one spin can contain several cascading wins. The maximum win is 500x the bet, which makes the low volatility rating easy to understand: big swings are simply not part of the design. Expect a steady, slow-moving balance.
Leprechaun slots come in every shape, and Play’n GO’s Leprechaun goes Egypt takes a very different route with doubling Wilds and a pick-me bonus. Top o’ the Money is the quieter of the two. If you like cascades with more upside, Gonzo’s Quest Megaways uses a similar falling-symbol idea with growing multipliers. For more games from this group, see our Novomatic page.

Top o’ the Money is a small, likeable slot that does one thing differently: it turns cascades into a visible path to free spins. That makes even modest spins interesting to follow. The low ceiling and simple presentation mean it will not excite players chasing big wins. For a calm, fair-RTP session with a classic Irish theme, it does the job well.
