The ultimate symbol of wealth in this day and age, the anthropomorphic piggy bank is set to take over the iGaming world and Yggdrasil is contributing to this frenzy with the Piggy Pop slot machine featuring PopWins mechanics and delivering unlimited Free Spins, a Gamble Wheel bonus and Golden Pigs for considerably high prizes!
Layout
There is no limit to the party, this is visually translated into a 6 reel interface and infinite active lines, or more precisely up to 524288 ways to win thanks to the PopWins feature. This feature, already present in several other successful achievements of the publisher such as CherryPop or PopRocks, allows the winning symbols to explode and duplicate themselves in two new symbols. The reels can reach up to 6 symbols high in standard mode and up to 8 symbols high during Free Spins.
The game is powered by high volatility and an RTP of 95.5%. Weak symbols are represented by the Royals, medium symbols represented by the perfume vial, Martini glass and green diamond can deliver better payouts and strong symbols represented by the damsel, the officer, the rich pig and the Golden Big can pay the most lucrative prizes.
You’ll notice the lack of Wilds or Scatters, this is not disturbing and does not deprive PiggyPop of a host of amazing features. Not only does the PopWins feature allow you to remove winning combinations to replace and double spaces with new symbols, but there’s plenty more to discover.
Features
Free Spins & Multiplier
Increasing the reels to 6 symbols high will trigger the Free Spins feature.
Free Spins start at 4, 5 or 6 symbols high and can increase to 8 symbols. The reel progression does not reset with each spin but will decrease to the size of the smallest reel. Free Spins start with a x1 multiplier that will increase with each winning spin.
The value of the Golden Pigs symbols is multiplied by the number of Golden Pigs across the reels. Unlock all reels in Unlimited Free Spins to increase the Golden Pigs multiplier to +2 per number of Golden Pigs on the reels.
Gamble Wheel
Before playing the Free Spins, you can choose to wager your free spins to try and start with more than 4 symbols on the reels at the beginning of the bonus. You will be able to increase the number of visible symbols to 5 and then 6 with this bonus.
Bonus Buy
It is also possible to access the bonus with the buy-in option for a price of 100x the stake for the standard version and 400x the stake to directly access 93312 or more active paths.
Overall
Yggdrasil Gaming and AvatarUX can’t seem to get enough of the PopWins mechanic that we’ve seen many times before. Now, one might wonder if the designers have run out of imagination, indeed, there is nothing to say about PiggyPop’s admirably well thought out gameplay, but it doesn’t bring much newness. However, it is always easy to find pleasure in playing this type of game, and we invite you to try the free demo version right away.
