The Great Pigsby Megapays Slot Features

What is the max win in the slot The Great Pigsby Megapays?

You can win up to 20000X the bet + a progressive Mega Jackpot that starts at €300'000.

What features are available in the slot The Great Pigsby Megapays?

The features are Wild Symbol, The Piggy Bank, Free Spins, Wild Respin, Great Pigsby Respin and Megapays.

Wild Symbol

The game's wild symbol helps to create more winning combinations by substituting for other symbols on the reels. When this symbol lands, it will expand to cover the entire reel and a multiplier will be displayed representing how many wilds that are included in the expanded reel. Each wild symbol that lands will be collected into the Piggy Bank, where it randomly can trigger one of its three different features. The wilds can land on the reels 2 to 6.

The Piggy Bank

When you land a wild symbol, it will be collected into The Piggy Bank, where there is a random chance that this bank breaks. When it breaks, one of the three features Free Spins, Wild Respin or Great Pigsby Respin, will be activated.

Free Spins

When this is activated, you will be welcomed with 10 free spins, and you will then receive 2 extra free spins each time a scatter symbol lands. When the scatter symbol lands, one of the royal symbols will also be deactivated. They go in the order of 10, J, Q, K and finally A, where each royal symbol that is deactivated will be replaced with higher paying symbols on the upcoming spins.

Wild Respin

When this is activated, you will receive a respin, where 2 to 5 reels will turn into wilds. Each reel that receives an expanded wild, will have a multiplier that shows how many wilds are on that specific reel, where this multiplier can be between 2X to 7X.

Great Pigsby Respin

When you activate this feature, you will receive a respin, where a large amount of the highest paying male pig symbols will be sprinkled out on the reels. There can be between 3 to 9 of these symbols placed out on the reels.

Megapays

During your spins, the Megapays feature can be randomly activated. You will then be moved to a new location, where you have a chance to win one of the progressive Jackpots Mini, Midi, Major or Mega, which start with values of €100, €1500, €20000 and €300000 respectively. These jackpots are progressive, which means that every spin that players make will contribute to their increasing size. When you make a bet, 1.5%, 1.3%, 1.2% and 1.1% of it will be contributed to the Mini, Midi, Major and Mega jackpots respectively, with these Jackpots having a total RTP of 9.44%.

Once you have activated this feature, a special Megapays symbol will be selected from 9, 10, J, Q, K and A. You will then receive a spin and when you land one or more of this special Megapays symbol, it will be locked in place and then you will receive a new respin. You will then continue to receive new respins each time one or more of the special Megapays symbol lands or until you have obtained the Mega Jackpot. To obtain any of these four jackpots, you must collect the following:

Mini Jackpot = You need to collect 4 to 7 of the special Megapays symbol, where this progressive Jackpot starts with a value of €100.

Midi Jackpot = You need to collect 8 to 11 of the special Megapays symbol, where this progressive Jackpot starts with a value of €1500.

Major Jackpot = You need to collect 12 to 14 of the special Megapays symbol, where this progressive Jackpot starts with a value of €20000.

Mega Jackpot = You need to collect 15 or more of the special Megapays symbol, where this progressive jackpot starts with a value of €300000.

The Great Pigsby Megapays Slot Conclusion

Just as The Great Gatsby is known for being a phenomenal host of parties, Relax Gaming once again presents a fantastic slot that gives players a warm welcome. It is a slot that is filled with adventurous features, topped with progressive Jackpots that can bring exceptional wins during the spins. The theme of the game reflects the famous novel The Great Gatsby well and with the help of the pigs, the theme is given a more humorous touch. However, it is a very glamorous theme that has been chosen and the game's design has really captured this well, with the background adding an extra depth and the luxurious touch with its content. It's a slot that features both the Megaways and Megapays mechanic, which Big Time Gaming has created, with the latter mentioned starting to appear more and more in the slot’s world. During the spins the rows will vary in number, which can give up to 117649 ways to win, something that we miss though, is the cascade effect that usually occurs when wins are created, but within this slot it does not occur. 

The wild symbol helps to create an extra thrill during the spins, where it will expand and cover the entire reels when it lands with an associated multiplier that can reach up to 7X. What makes this wild extra special is that it becomes collected each time it lands, and this can result in The Piggy Bank randomly being activated. Then you will be able to take advantage of one of its three different features, which include free spins, where the lower paying symbols can be gradually removed and give the opportunity to create higher paying wins. The wild respin is really wild in a double sense, where you will get 2 to 5 wild symbols placed out on the reels, where these will expand and enable explosive wins. The Pigsby, who usually stays rather anonymous, will make a big appearance if the Great Pigsby Respin is activated, where up to 9 of these symbols will be placed on the reels, where we would have liked to see a lot more symbols at the same time.

The game has a lot of entertaining features that can be activated during the course of the game, but it is clearly the Megapays Jackpots that add extra thrills to the spins. Its feature can be randomly activated, where players get a chance to take part in any of the 4 different progressive Jackpots available. The largest Mega Jackpot starts at €300´000, which can provide a sudden bonanza, and although the chances of this are very small, it is a perfect addition for players who like slots with Jackpots. The game's design is very cleverly crafted, and its delightful mix of features makes the spins very rewarding, despite the fact that the Megapays feature is rarely activated. This makes the game entertaining even without the Jackpots, where its sudden approach is very surprising and welcome. As with other slots, a slot with a Jackpot will affect the game's RTP and here the RTP is 86.75% in the regular game and the Jackpots RTP is 9.44%, with the total RTP being 96.19%.

The Great Pigsby Megapays is glamorous and luxuriously crafted slot, where its features certainly match its theme, where winning opportunities of up to 20000X the bet in the regular game and progressive Jackpots can contribute to mammoth wins.
