Enter the piggy vault in search of gold coins in the latest slot release from the SlotMatrix-acquired Fantasma Games called Gold Pigger, which has claimed Slot of the Week.

Gold Pigger is a 6×4 reel slot with 4,096 paylines and a maximum win of x8,086.8 the player’s stake. It has an RTP of 96.1% and a medium volatility.

Bjorn Sjoberg, COO at SlotMatrix, said: “Gold Pigger is the first Fantasma Games big release since we acquired them, and more of their games will join the SlotMatrix proprietary content portfolio soon enough.”

Playing cards nine through ace are the title’s low-value symbols, offering x0.2 to x1.4 the player’s stake, depending on the combinations that land on the reels following a spin.

High-value symbols are represented by die, poker chips, cash, gold bars and diamonds, offering between x0.2 and x5 the player’s wager. 

Several different scatter symbols also appear throughout the base and bonus games.

Coin symbols feature random cash prizes between x0.3 and x9 the player’s bet. Big coins, with a size of 4×4, can also land during the big bacon spin bonus game. Pigs represent the game’s collect symbols, which can land on reels one and six.

In the base game and rich piggy respin, jackpot symbols can land on reels two, three, four and five. They can also be revealed from a big coin during the big bacon spin. Each jackpot symbol carries one of four prize multiplier values of mini (x10), minor (x25), major (x100) and mega (x500).

A grand jackpot prize, which carries a multiplier value of x5,000 with a size of 4×4, can land during the big bacon spin bonus game and reveal up to 16 individual symbols. 

Blank symbols can land on the reels and act as blockers during the big bacon spin, rich piggy respin and piggy vault bonus modes. The game also has wild symbols which can land on reels two, three, four and five, substituting for all regular symbols. 

Two multipliers that increase in level sit alongside the reels, beginning at x1 and reaching a maximum of x10.

When a single collect symbol lands without any jackpot symbols during the base game, the coin collect multiplier increases in level. Meanwhile, the bonus multiplier grows by one when three bonus symbols land during the base game or a full column is cleared during the piggy vault bonus. 

The coin collect feature is triggered when a coin or jackpot symbol lands alongside a collect symbol, adding the values of all landed coin and jackpot symbols together before multiplying them by the coin collect multiplier.

Gold Pigger has three different bonus games that can be triggered. 

When two collect symbols land on the reels, the rich piggy respin game is activated, locking in all coins and jackpot symbols on the reels before respinning reels two through five. Only coin, jackpot and blank symbols can land, with the collective value of the symbols multiplied by the coin collect multiplier.

The big bacon respin game can be randomly triggered when a coin or jackpot symbol lands without a collect symbol.

An additional spin is played after the base game and reels two to five are combined and spun together as one reel. Only big coin, grand and blank symbols can land during the game. Following the spin, big coin symbols break up to reveal individual symbols and the values of the prizes are added together. 

When four bonus symbols land in the base game, the piggy vault bonus is triggered, awarding three spins to the player. 

Any bonus symbols are transformed into coin symbols and locked into place. Only blank and coin symbols can land. When a coin symbol lands, it is locked into place and the number of spins is reset to three. 

Filling a column with symbols clears that column and increases the bonus multiplier by one. At the end of the mode, all symbol prizes are summed and multiplied by the bonus multiplier.
