Piggy Riches is the original slot game dedicated to NetEnt's two wealthy pigs. Released in 2010, the game maintains a classic structure of five reels and a maximum of fifteen lines. Its main appeal comes from the Wild, which triples winning lines, and a bonus where players choose their own ratio of free spins to multipliers.

The title belongs to the NetEnt catalogue. The studio sets the action in front of a mansion, featuring Gentleman Pig in a suit and Lady Pig covered in jewellery. Beneath this deliberately opulent setting, the rules remain straightforward: combinations pay from left to right, selectable lines, scatters and free spins without cascades or variable reels.

Key facts about Piggy Riches

The grid features 5 reels and 3 rows. It is possible to activate from 1 to 15 lines and adjust the bet level. A combination pays on an active line when it forms from the leftmost reel; only the highest combination on each line is paid, then simultaneous wins are added together.

Fifteen lines for a very clear pace

The choice of the number of lines directly affects grid coverage and the total bet. Playing all fifteen lines covers all intended paths; reducing the number decreases the active possibilities along with the cost of the spin. The bet display should therefore be checked after each change of lines, level or coin value.

NetEnt states a hit frequency of 34.00%. This percentage counts spins that produce a payout, regardless of size. It should therefore not be confused with the probability of triggering free spins, nor with the RTP, which measures the theoretical return to player over a very long series of spins.

The maximum announced win reaches 2,400× the bet. This cap applies to the total of a game and does not describe a common win. Piggy Riches distributes its potential across symbol payouts, the Wild multiplier and the one chosen at the start of the free spins, rather than through a complex collection mechanic.

This architecture makes the game easy to follow: each spin resolves on the active lines, scatters pay separately, and the two pig characters focus the key features. Animations clearly signal the Wild and the bonus choice, without adding a persistent counter between spins.

Gentleman Pig: a Wild that multiplies by three

Gentleman Pig is the x3 multiplier Wild. He replaces all other symbols except Lady Pig Scatter to complete the highest possible combination on a line. Whenever a Wild contributes to a winning line, the coin payout for that line is tripled, both in the base game and during the bonus.

Lady Pig plays a different role. Two or more scatters can already produce a win calculated from the total bet, regardless of the selected lines. From three scatters, the symbols reveal the free spins options. This separation makes the two pigs complementary: one boosts lines, the other opens the bonus.

Free spins chosen upon triggering

When three or more Lady Pig symbols appear, each Scatter displays a different combination of free spins and multiplier. The player selects an option before starting. The bonus uses the number of lines, bet level and coin value of the triggering spin, while the chosen multiplier applies to wins achieved during the feature.

Each new Scatter landed during the bonus adds a free spin. The Wild continues to triple winning lines and can combine with the feature's multiplier; NetEnt thus announces up to 18× on a winning line with a Wild. The value of the initial choice therefore becomes the main leverage of the bonus.

RTP, volatility and betting range

The theoretical RTP is 96.38% and volatility is medium. The first figure represents a statistical average calculated over a very large number of spins; the second describes an intermediate distribution of payouts. Neither allows predicting the outcome of a spin or when the scatters will appear.

The current supplier sheet shows a bet of £0.15 to £300 per spin. The currency and maximum cap can be adapted by the operator, but the total visible before the spin remains the correct guide. With selectable lines, it is particularly useful to check this amount after each adjustment rather than relying solely on the coin value.

Which player profile is Piggy Riches for?

Piggy Riches is best suited for those who prefer classic lines and an easy-to-understand bonus, with a real choice between more spins or a stronger multiplier. NetEnt fans can compare it to Starburst: both games remain clear, but Piggy Riches relies more on scatters, the x3 Wild and the decision made at the start of the bonus.

This original edition therefore retains a clear identity: fifteen adjustable lines, two pigs with distinct functions, and free spins whose profile is chosen upon triggering.
