The Fortune Pig

The Fortune Pig Slots

Created by iSoftBet, this Chinese-style game offers the player the chance to win big with the luck of the Chinese red! Celebrate the Chinese New Year in style and wish in the New Year with some lucky wins from this slot! With 5 reels and all 3 symbols high, there are 25 paylines, paying from the left to right. An abundance of bonus features, scatters, money bags and wilds, this slot is beautifully designed, with the player in mind.

While most Chinese-themed games are red and gold, this slot is a whole other world, with stunning graphics in a variety of colours, with the background littered with traditional buildings, dancing dragons in the back, and oriental-style purple reels, filled with bright symbols! In Chinese traditions, pigs represent wealth, luck and overall good fortune, so the player can be hoping to channel some of the pig’s character!

Bet Strategy and Symbols

Betting between 25p and £25, players with both small and big budgets can play, adding to the appeal of this game. Lower paying symbols include the A, K, Q, and J, all in glossy colours and outlined in rich gold. They may be lower-paying, but they are stunning in design. Something also beautifully crafted is the medium value symbols. These include a gold ornate fan, golden money tree, drum and golden lion. The highest value symbols include the Wild golden pig, red and gold money bags, and golden dragon with a blue egg, used as the scatter symbol.

The dragon is one of the best symbols if 5 are matched, paying 16x the player’s initial stake! The Wild, shown as a golden pig, can substitute for any symbol within the game, with the exception of the money bags and dragon. It spins in a stacked formation and has the chance of hitting on all 5 reels. If it does, it can offer the player rewards of 2, 10 and 20 times the stake if landed in a 3, 4 or 5 combo!

Bonus Features

One of the bonus features of this slot is the Fortune Free Spins. This is triggered by landing a dragon symbol on the 1st, 3rd and 5th reels during the course of one spin. This awards the player 8 free spins. These are played out on the In-Sync Reels feature, where anything from 2 and 5 reels can become synced on any of the free spins. The only downside to this feature is that free spins cannot be retriggered. This is a rewarding feature, with the potential for the player to win up to 500 times their stake per free spin! The Fortune Tree Bonus is another feature of the slot. If 3 or more of the Bonus symbols on a single turn, there’s a chance to play this feature.

The ‘Fortune Tree’ is covered in envelopes, each containing additional Wilds, free spins and multiplier to use during the Free Spin feature! Another bonus feature of the slot is the Cash Re-Spins feature. As a player, you’ll need to land 5 or more of the money bags to trigger this feature, which awards 3 re-spins. Every time a new money bag lands, the re-spins reset to 3, making this a long feature, with a big cash prize at the end for anyone who plays it! During this feature you can win up to 801 times your initial stake!

Conclusion

Visually beautiful, with touches like cherry blossoms falling, this game is as aesthetically pleasing as it is enjoyable to play. With potential pay-outs high, the luck of the Chinese New Year is always with the player as they wish for the jackpot!
