Piggy Riches Begins Slot Review

You may trigger multiple features in the base game, ranging from Cash symbols to the Hold and Respin Bonus. These can help you land wins in various ways.

Wild Symbol

The Wild symbol can appear on reels 2, 3, and 4. It substitutes for every standard symbol, and its size can increase from 1x1 to 1x4.

Progression Structure

The Piggy Riches Begins slot has four progression levels. The level increases each time you trigger the Hold and Respin feature during the initial three levels.

Throughout the first level, Wild symbols have a standard 1x1 scale, and Cash Scatters are worth 1x - 3x. Multiplier Scatter values range from x2 to x10.

Wilds grow bigger in scale as your level increases, as do the Cash Scatter and Multiplier Scatter values. By the time you reach the fourth level, Wild symbols will be 1x4 in size, and Cash Scatter values will go as high as 20x. Multiplier Scatters can be worth up to x1,000.

Additionally, four Prize Scatters appear on the fourth level: Mini (25x), Minor (250x), Major (1,000x), and Mega (20,000x).

Collector Symbol

One Collector Scatter symbol may hit on reel 5 on any spin. This collects the value shown on each Cash and Prize symbol if six or fewer land in total. Cash prize symbols have a random value based on the current progression level.

Multiplier Symbol

The Multiplier Scatter may appear on reel 5 only and reveals a random multiplier (depending on the current progression level). The Multiplier Scatter has no effect on Cash and Prize symbols.

Hold and Respin Bonus

Land six or more Cash and Prize symbols to trigger the Hold and Respin bonus. Any Cash, Prize, and Collector symbols already in view stay on the reels. You’ll receive three respins, and each position spins independently.

Only Prize, Cash, Collector, and blank symbols may appear. Any non-blank symbol that lands resets the respin count to three. Collectors stick to the reels and gather values from Cash symbols.

The Hold and Respin Bonus ends when you run out of respins or fill the grid.

This is another fine entry in the Piggy Riches series, with decent features and an intriguing progression system. The max win of 20,556x your bet is very generous, but the high volatility can make larger payouts very sporadic. 

While it may not be particularly fresh, Piggy Riches Begins continues the series in style and offers an entertaining gaming experience.
