Not all pigs are happy in mud and that’s certainly the case for the two porkers in the latest slot from Fantasma Games. Gold Pigger is already live with a limited number of operators, and a truly flying start with initial key player KPIs up +100% from an already very successful 2024 game release performance.

Gold Pigger, which will be released to global network during Q3, sees players put on their top hats and polish their pearls as they get ready to roll in riches by joining a pair of pigs, Richy and Peggy, with a penchant for life’s finer things. These entertainment loving hogs have a nose for gold and big wins and help players on their way to cash prizes and jackpots. The collection of bonus features adds an exciting and thrilling gameplay element to the overall very positive player experience.

This includes Jackpot Prizes. There is a total of five to play for – Mini (10x), minor (25x), Major (100x), Mega (550x) and Grand (5,000x) – all of which can drop during the base game and in the Big Bacon Spin. What’s that, we hear you ask?

During the Big Bacon Spin, only the Big Coin and Grand Jackpot can land. The Big Coins split into smaller cash prizes that can range from 0.3x to the Mega jackpot.

 

There’s also a Coin Collect and Rich Piggy Respins Bonus. This sees all the Cash symbols collected and then Multiplied by the current Coin Collect Multiplier – this increases every time a single Collect lands without any cash prizes on the reels and can range from 1x to 10x.

Landing both Collects then triggers the Rich Piggy Respin, locking any Cash Prizes on the reels and Re-spinning the middle four reels for the chance to win more Cash Prizes.

There’s more. The Bonus Multiplier increases when landing three Bonus symbols with values between 1x and 10x, while the Pigg Vault Bonus takes the Hold & Win format.

Locking all positions on the reel clears the column and increases the Bonus Multiplier – positions then open again to lock in more Cash Prizes. All Cash Prizes are Multiplied at the end by the final Bonus Multiplier for some really big pig wins.

Fredrik Johansson, CEO at Fantasma Games, said: “Gold Pigger allows player to quickly be rewarded for their gameplay, and hence maximizes the overall entertainment value. This is a bonus-heavy game, with a very exciting mechanical framework that motivates players to ultimately reach for the Piggy Vault.

“The game is already beating all pre-launch expectations and solidifies our focus to bring premium entertainment experience to our partners and their player communities. We have seen a very consistent high performance from our entire 2024 games portfolio, which is a great player testimony, and which gives us confidence in our continued portfolio development work. ”
