Game Overview
The origin of everyday terms often goes unnoticed, and the Piggy Bank is no exception. While various stories exist, the most probable explanation is that people used to store money in earthenware pots called “pigge.” Initially unrelated to pigs, it appears that a manufacturer later found it amusing to create pig-shaped banks. Interesting stuff, right? So, why the anecdote, you ask? Well, it’s our little intro into Pragmatic Play’s Piggy Bankers slot, of course. As for its stats, we have a 5-reel slot complete with 20 fixed paylines, an RTP of 96.05% and a maximum win of 10,000x bet.
How about the features then? Interestingly, we have the addition of the Banknotes Reel positioned above the main reels of the game. If a full stack of vertical wilds hits under one of these Banknotes, its value will be collected. Furthermore, all full stacks of wilds that land will transform into a Piggy Banker and trigger a set of respins, which will continue until the banker leaves the screen. Last up is the free spins, triggered when the special Banknote is collected or two Piggy Banker wilds meet. Once activated, five spins are awarded, with the chance of winning increased notes up to the value of 1,000x now possible in the bonus round.
How’s your piggy bank looking these days? Is it brimming to the top with coins and notes ready for a rainy day, or did you blow it all on your last night out? Maybe you can tuck a little extra aside by taking our free demo slot of Piggy Bankers for a spin; it’s available to play below.
Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
Now that we’ve improved your trivia and increased your chances of winning the midweek quiz down your local with our fun facts, you might have gained a thirst for more piggy related knowledge. If that happens to be the case, then we have a few other slots for you to look at here in the Demoslot search engine. Notable mentions and games I would recommend trying out in this genre before you do go searching are PG Softs Lucky Piggy, and I’d also give Hacksaw Gaming’s Magic Piggy a try too. For now, though, let’s get back on track with today’s review and see if Piggy Bankers is stuffed with cash waiting for you to win it as we head over to the pays section.
Over at the paytable, we find three symbols sharing the top position as the highest paying in the game. These are the Golden Piggy Bank, the Banker Wild, and the Lady Banker Wild, all with equal values of 12.5x for a five of a kind win. Next is the Golden Scales, valued at 7.5x, followed by the Brandy at 5x, and the last of the premium paying symbols, the Cigars, worth 4x the bet for a completed line of five. As for the low pays, we have five classic royal symbols, with the Ace and King paying 3x for a full line of five, and finally, the Queen, Jack and Ten, all with equal values of 2x the bet for a five of a kind hit.
It’s business as usual with regard to the betting range from Pragmatic Play. There are heaps of options available to players, with the minimum and maximum permitted wagers coming in at €0.20 and €240 a spin, respectively.
Base Game & Modifiers
Gameplay on Piggy Bankers is set over a 5×4 reel configuration, totalling 20 fixed paylines in play throughout the base game and bonus round. Wins are awarded when at least three matching symbols land on adjacent reels, starting from the leftmost reel first.
Banknotes Reel
Positioned above the main reels is the special horizontal Banknotes Reel. On every spin, this can either contain blank spaces or banknotes with multiplier values attached to them. If a full stack of wilds lands under one of the banknote values, that amount will be credited to your balance.
Wild Respins
Whenever a full stack of wilds lands in view, they will transform into either the full reel Piggy Banker Wild or the full reel Lady Piggy Banker Wild. The game will then award you with respins, with the Piggy Banker Wild moving one position right with each respin that takes place and Lady Piggy Banker Wild moving one position to the left. This feature will end when all walking wilds have left the screen.
Piggy Bankers Slot Bonus Features
The bonus round and five free spins are awarded on Piggy Bankers when either a free spins banknote is collected by a full stack of wilds in the base game or if the Piggy Bank Wild and Lady Piggy Banker Wild meet on the same reel during the respins feature.
Free Spins
During the free spins, the respin feature can also be triggered, and there is now a new banknote added to the horizontal reel worth 1,000 in value. Additionally, if two of the walking wilds meet on the same reel, one extra spin will be awarded, and they will both be awarded a multiplier of x2 for the time they remain on the reels.
Bonus Buy
The free spins feature can be triggered instantly at the cost of 80x bet for players who can access this option in their jurisdiction.
Pros
- The full reel wilds can obtain multipliers which could make reaching that maximum win of 10,000x bet a little easier.
Cons
- Multiple RTP rates are available for operators in this game. So make sure you're not playing it at its lowest.
Piggy Bankers Slot Review Final Thoughts
Whilst I couldn't say there is anything majorly wrong with Piggy Bankers, I just didn't find it very entertaining to play and became quickly bored whilst reviewing it. Your experiences may vary, but for me, this is a filler game and not one I'll be revisiting any time soon.
