When Pigs Fly Slot

We’ve all heard the saying “When Pigs Fly” and now thanks to NetEnt there’s a slot game that features some cartoon based pigs that love to fly. In fact they don’t just love to fly, it seems these pigs are not intent until they leave the atmosphere of the planet all together. The whole objective of this slot game leads to the ultimately conclusion which is to launch you space faring pigs into orbit in exchange for some free spins of course!

When Pigs Fly Slot Details

The layout of the reels on this online slot is a little unusual compare to most other slots you see these days. There are the usual 5 reels, however the Reels 1 and 5 have only one row whilst the central reel, reel 3 has no less than 5 rows. This leaves reels 2 and 4 which both have 3 rows. This unusual configuration gives you 10 betting levels with 3125 ways to win.

As a result of all that the coin selection values are quite low, offering you the choice between £/€0.01 per coin up to a maximum of £/€0.20. With 10 different betting levels that control your paylines this gives you a bet range of between £/€0.50 per spin up to a maximum of £/€100.00 per spin.

If you’re looking for that jackpot amount on this slot game, this is stated as 480,000 coins which equates to £/€96,000 in real money terms.

Online Slot Features & Free Spins

This is pretty quirky online slot game on its own without any special features purely for its humorous theme (although the sound effects can grind a bit after a while). In addition though you’ve got plenty of online slot features to keep you entertained with the When Pigs Fly Slot including the following:

• Wild Symbols – Appear on Reels 2,3,4 and 5 any time during the game and substitute for any symbol.
• Re-Spins – These are triggered for every win you hit during the slot game spins. If you’re lucky these are chained together up to 5 times, each time increasing the number of ways you can win from 135 ways to win up to a maximum of 1875 ways to win on your 5^th re-spin. After that if you hit a win on your 5^th re-spin you activate the main feature of the game.
• Free Spins – As above these are triggered by hitting 5 re-pins in a row. Once triggered an in game cartoon style video plays showing your pigs getting ready for lift off. You’ll be awarded with 8 Free Spins in a new bonus screen giving you 3125 ways to win in total.

TheCasinoDb Verdict

The humorous animation and quirkiness make this a fun loving slot for most, although unless your hitting bonuses on the regular we wouldn’t be surprised if the sound effects got a little old quite quickly. Overall the game ran quite slowly on some machines which detracted a little from the gameplay which is a bit of a shame and is not what we’ve seen from the most recent online slots coming out of the NetEnt studios.

All that said there is definitely some fun to be had with this online slot, especially if you’re a fan of cartoons and/or flying pigs! Worth a try we say – the re-spins keep things interesting and the increasing number of ways to win makes for a slot that pays out often.
