Game Overview

They say that money can’t buy you happiness, but like most of you reading this, I wouldn’t mind being filthy rich and trying that theory out for myself. For the time being, though, the closest I’m going to get to being surrounded by bling and cash is by looking at NetEnt’s slot titled Piggy Riches Megaways. First things first, then, and how about the vital stats of the game? We’ve got up to 117,649 paylines that can hit on any spin, a slightly below-average RTP of 95.71%, and a maximum win of 10,474x bet. So, not a bad start at all.

Megaways games are renowned for being entertaining and offering plenty of in-play action, which seems to be the case in Piggy Riches. The cascading reels mechanic features throughout, offering multiple chances to win from a single spin. We’ve got reel multiplying full reel wilds too, which can produce some of the biggest hits within the slot as they can hit up to x7 in value. Lastly, for the bonuses, we have a free spins feature, triggered when three or more scatters appear in view. Once active, an unlimited win multiplier comes into play, with no limits on the amount it can reach.

I think it’s time we learn more about this game, don’t you? If you’d prefer to skip our review and sample the gameplay first instead, head down to the free demo slot of Piggy Riches Megaways, available to try below.

Piggy Riches Megaways Theme Stakes, Pays & Symbols

Piggy Riches Megaways slot paytable

Pig-themed slots, perhaps somewhat bizarrely, seem to have resonated with online players over recent years. A couple of my absolute favourites in this niche are Peaky Pigs from game provider Snowborn, a tongue-in-cheek take on the popular tv series Peaky Blinders, and more recently, the impressive Magic Piggy slot from the developer of the moment Hacksaw Gaming. Both of these titles are fantastic in their own right, but long before these games were created NetEnt was setting this genre of slot alive with their very popular Piggy Riches. The release and subsequent success of this game made it inevitable that once NetEnt had acquitted a Megaways license, it would be getting an upgrade to the reel modifying mechanic at some stage. And that time is now, so let’s jump in and take a look at what it’s all about.

Kicking things off with the paytable, we have the highest paying symbol, the bag of loot that’s worth 20x bet for a six of a kind win. Next, we have the bank card that pays 5x for a complete line, followed by the key at 2x, the purse at 1.6x, and finally, the piggy bank paying 1.2x if six hit across a payline. Moving to the lower pays, we have five royal symbols, starting with the Ace that awards 0.8x for all six. This is followed by the King at 0.7x, the Queen at 0.6x, then we have a Jack at 0.5x, and last up is the Ten, which pays 0.4x for a six of a kind hit.

Regarding the betting range, Piggy Riches Megaways can be played for as little as €0.10 a spin, with the highest stake coming in at €10. There is a good selection of bets to spin at between these amounts, so players of all sized bankrolls will be able to comfortably find a stake they are happy with.

Base Game & Modifiers

Piggy Riches Megaways slot base game

Piggy Riches Megaways is played across six reels, with each of these having the capability to display up to seven symbols on each spin. Through this format and the Megaways engine, the game can generate between 64 – 117,649 paylines on any spin. Wins are created when three or more matching symbols ( 2 in the case of the bag of loot ) land on adjacent reels from left to right.

Mega Wilds

Full reel multiplying Mega Wilds with a value of up to x7 feature in the game. Up to three of these can land on any spin, and what makes them even more remarkable is that if two or more of these wilds are involved in a win, they will multiply each other, further increasing the win potential.

Cascading Reels

Those unfamiliar with the cascading reels engine will get to see why players enjoy the slots that use it so much. Every time you hit a winning combination on the reels, the symbols used in that win will be removed, and new symbols will drop down to replace them. This process will continue until no further wins can be made. At this time, a new spin will need to take place.

Piggy Riches Megaways Slot Bonus Features

Piggy Riches Megaways slot free spins feature

There is just one main bonus round in the game, and Triggering it will require you to land 3 or more of the scatter symbols anywhere in view. If this can be achieved, you will be taken to the bonus wheel, where a random spin will take place to reveal the number of free spins you have been awarded and your starting multiplier for the bonus round. The best possible outcome in this scenario is 22 free spins with a starting multiplier of 10x.

Free Spins

As the free spin bonus begins, you are given a starting win multiplier of x1. Each successful win reaction created within the bonus round will increment your multiplier by a further x1, with no limits on what value this can reach. Additional spins can be awarded during bonus through the scatter symbols landing anywhere in view, with each scatter that hits awarding you with one extra spin.

Piggy Riches Megaways Slot Review Final Thoughts

As a first foray into the Megaways market for NetEnt, Piggy Riches was a perfect choice to enter with. The original slot remains a favourite among players, and the transition to a Megaways Slot through Red Tiger has produced a very smooth and likeable slot that we thoroughly enjoyed playing. If this is what NetEnt have started with, and the endless slots they have at their disposal from their game catalogue, then there could be some really exciting titles hitting the market in the years to come.
