The OCR review

Gameplay

When you see a name like Cash Pig you immediately picture a farm setting. Not so with this great title from Booming Games. Cash Pig refers to the Piggy Bank mechanic rather than the porcine protagonist of fairy tales and farmyards – and, trust us, there’s nothing messy about this slick slot.

With an ultra-luxury theme packed with jets and watches and diamond rings and champagne flutes, Cas Pig is definitely more the Gucci Gang than the mud wallows and the rich and opulent graphics are perfectly complimented by backgrounds of the famous Las Vegas icons of the Strip including the Eiffel Tower the Balloon and the casino/hotel facades.

Glitz and glamour abound as does the potential for big wins when you start collecting the gold coins and hit the Piggy Collect icon to cash in!

Gameplay is made even more thrilling with the elimination of minor symbols and the upgrading of the higher value symbols if you hit the right combos – and get the big wins!

Cash Pig is superbly engineered and the fast action and reminders of the life you could live if you were to make the rich lists is fun and engaging.

Great fun and great gameplay.

Symbols

All the accoutrements of the lifestyles of the rich & famous are on display. The rings, the watches, the cars, the toys – and perfectly set in the city of instant fortunes, and instant failings.

Low paying symbols are the Royals (from lowest to highest): 10; J; Q and K (same value); A.

High value majors from lowest to highest: ring, watch, car, jet.

During Free Spins, the Major symbols can be upgraded to Gold versions that offer double the payout.

Diamonds are Wild, and Champagne Flutes are Scatters.

Gold coins with various values can appear randomly. Hitting the Gold Piggy Collect symbol will award the value of all coins on screen.

Graphics

Cash Pig has superb graphics that are vibrant and crisp. The artwork is perfectly reflective of the theme of the slot and the attention to detail and crisp effect certainly add to the premium feel of the slot.

There is a very jaunty, almost big-band style soundtrack to accompany your spins.
