Piggy Riches slot review
Piggy Riches is a NetEnt slot from September 2010 with 5 reels, 3 rows and 15 fixed paylines. Its theme is old money, and a gentleman pig acts as the wild, trebling any line payout he completes. The free spins let you trade the number of spins against the size of the multiplier.

How Piggy Riches plays
Payouts come from matching symbols on any of the 15 lines, reading from the leftmost reel. The paytable leans on wealth: a sack of riches is the top symbol, followed by a gold credit card, a key, a purse full of cash and a piggy bank. A, K, Q, J and 10 fill in the lower end.
Two pigs carry the special roles:
- The gentleman pig is the wild. He substitutes for every symbol except the scatter, and any line payout he is part of is multiplied by 3.
- The lady pig is the scatter. She pays anywhere on the reels and opens the free spins.
Because the wild’s treble is active in the base game, not saved for a bonus, ordinary spins here have more going on than a plain 15-line slot. The fixed lines are what separate the original from its later spin-off, Piggy Riches Megaways, which uses a Megaways grid instead.
Free spins with a choice of multiplier
Three or more lady pig scatters trigger the free spins. Before they start, a selection screen offers three packages:
- 22 free spins with a 2x multiplier
- 15 free spins with a 3x multiplier
- 9 free spins with a 5x multiplier
The chosen multiplier applies to payouts in the round. The choice changes the shape of the round rather than the odds: more spins with a smaller multiplier spread the chances out, while fewer spins at 5x put more weight on each one.
The full feature cannot be retriggered. Instead, each lady pig that lands during the free spins adds one extra spin to the count.
