Over the last week much publicity has been given to the Microgaming slot game Piggy Fortunes. The Big Bad Wolf feature is more exciting than anything that could be imagined from the scanty write-ups that were floating around. But to start at the beginning, Piggy Fortunes is based on the children’s fable Three Little Pigs. To recap the story: the first pig builds a house of straw which is blown away by the wolf, who gobbles up the helpless pig. The second pig builds a house of sticks and meets the same fate. The third pig is wiser and builds a house of bricks. When the wolf cannot blow that away he tries to enter down the chimney and meets his end in a pot of boiling water.

The plot in Piggy Fortunes is somewhat different. All the pigs and the wolf have an eternal lease on life. All the houses, including the brick one, can get blown down, but each can be resurrected as well. The graphics are however straight from a children’s picture book. The reels are set in a leafy wood. The cutely constructed three houses and the Microgaming high value card symbols award line payouts. The three little pigs form the scatter symbol and the big bad wolf is the wild symbol. The animations match the mood of the story. The houses dance as they can do only in children’s stories and the wolf gives a knowing look and thumbs up sign.

The Big Bad Wolf feature is triggered when three or more pigs symbols appear scattered on the reels. During the feature if the wolf lands adjacent to any house it will blow all houses of that type down. While the house of straw is blown down the big bad wolf awards a wild multiplier of 2x. While the house of sticks is blown down the big bad wolf awards a wild multiplier of 3x. While the house of bricks is blown down the big bad wolf awards a wild multiplier of 4x. The highest eligible multiplier is applied when the wolf substitutes to make winning combinations. When three or more pigs symbols land on the screen during the feature, they will randomly build back one of the blown down houses. Thus the tussle between the pigs and the wolf continues. The Big Bad Wolf feature ends when all the houses have been blown down. The feature cannot be retriggered.

Piggy Fortunes is a 25 paylines slot game in which players can wager up to 15 coins per payline. The slot game is live at all Microgaming online casinos like Spin Palace, Roxy Palace, Crazy Vegas and Platinum Play.
