Game Overview
Are pigs the flavour of the month? Or is it the Chinese year of the pig, perhaps? Something must be going on with our piggy friends, as slot providers suddenly seem to have developed a fetish for these creatures! We’ve already had Great Pigsby Megaways from Relax in the last few weeks, and now Snowborn is offering up their new Peaky Pigs online slot! We’ve got 20 fixed pay lines, a 96.09% RTP, and a maximum win of 20,000x your bet this time around, which is enough to pique my interest – how about you?
Let’s talk features next, then, shall we? Peaky Pigs features several multiplier wilds, worth as much as 5x each. If multiple wild symbols form part of a single winning combination, their values will be multiplied together, potentially resulting in a multiplier of up to 120x the standard paytable prize. There is also a sticky wilds free spin bonus – my favourite kind – and a piggy pots bonus which can potentially award prizes of up to 5,000x your current bet. Everything sounds great so far, and I’ll say this right now – I’ve been playing this game far too long already!
If you choose to try out our free demo slot of Peaky Pigs, then be careful you don’t end up wasting hours of your life playing the game as I have! It really is that fun. Check out the practice mode anytime you like via your desktop, tablet, and mobile devices.
Peaky Pigs Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
I bet you won’t guess what the theme of Peaky Pigs is all about… until you take a look at the pictures on the reels, that is, anyway! Judging by the knuckledusters, razor blades, and fearsome looking piggy characters on show here, I’m guessing that Snowborn has taken a little inspiration from the Peaky Blinders TV show here, which is an awesome choice of ideas to combine for an online slot! There are plenty of gangster-themed online slots, but when was the last time you played one where the gangsters were pigs? Never, I suspect! Top marks for originality then, as well as the presentation and feature set – Snowborn look like they are on to a winner with this one, I would say!
Let’s talk about the paytable next! The wild symbols are worth 111x your bet for a full pay line of five-of-a-kind, but as each wild can also have a multiplier attached, the final win could be much higher. The character symbols have all been given interesting names by the developers; Tommy Hilpigger tops the paytable with a return of 12.5x your bet for all five, and Ricky Ribs has the same return. There are two other piggy characters named Sam the Ham and Billy Bacon, who will pay you 10x your bet for a full pay line of five-of-a-kind. There are six medium and lower paying symbols, too, with returns of between 5x and 1.25x for all five, whilst the bonus symbol pays just 1.5x when you hit all three of those.
The minimum bet per spin is a low roller friendly €0.20, while the maximum is set at €25.00 per round. There are 19 steps between these two limits, with many sensible intervals towards the lower end of the range.
Base Game & Modifiers
The base game uses the typical 5×3 layout common to so many online slots, and regular play offers up few surprises – wins are awarded for three or more matching symbols from left to right, and there are no base game modifiers to speak of. We do have the piggy pots feature, though, and a brilliant bonus round, which we’ll discuss in the next section. It’s a shame that Snowborn didn’t throw a couple of modifiers in to spice things up a little further, but the lack of them doesn’t make this game any less entertaining, in my opinion.
Piggy Pots Bonus
Each time a coin symbol appears on top of a pig symbol, then the coin will be collected, increasing your chances of triggering the piggy pots bonus feature on a later spin.
The piggy pots bonus takes place on a separate reel set with four different pigs, each of whom has a different prize attached. The lowest prize is worth 15x your bet, whilst the largest is worth 5,000x. Every pig that lands on the reels will be collected, and the first one to appear five times will decide the jackpot you win.
Peaky Pigs Slot Bonus Features
The main bonus round is a free spin feature triggered by hitting three bonus symbols on reels one, three, and five. You can also opt to buy your way to the bonus round if permitted within your jurisdiction.
During this mode, all wilds become sticky. Better yet, with each additional spin, one sticky wild will be selected to have its multiplier increased by 1x, up to a maximum of 9x per symbol. Just like in the base game, multiple wilds forming part of a single winning combination will be multiplied together, but because the wilds are sticky during the bonus round, you will win far more in this mode than you will in the base game. It’s a brilliant feature on par with games such as Dead or Alive, and I would definitely opt to use the bonus buy feature to play this part of the game if I could!
Bonus Buy Feature
The most surprising thing about the bonus buy feature in Peaky Pigs is that it costs just 50x the regular bet to purchase – that’s very low for a bonus buy feature, especially considering how generous this feature is.
With that in mind, I would probably skip the base game altogether if you live in a jurisdiction where bonus buy features are permitted and just play the bonus round!
Peaky Pigs Slot Review Final Thoughts
This is a fantastic online slot, and the bonus round is one of the most fun features I have played in a long time. Snowborn is a relatively unknown developer, but if they can keep creating games of this quality, they deserve to rise up the ranks of the industry very quickly. Search this one out – it’s first class!
