New MG Slot... Piggy Fortunes

[Nicola]

Piggy Fortunes is starting to appear at MicroGaming casinos from today, only one new slot game this month!

Seems a very complicated paytable and can't see any really big wins from this (and no free spins???) - unless I'm reading it wrong? LOL

 

[rainmaker]

.

Yeah, the paytable for the Big Bad Wolf feature (or free spins) is a bit complicated hehe.

This bonus feature will be triggered by 3 or more Scatters and it will continue to give you free spins until all the houses are blown down

 

[Wild Reels]

played it today just to see the feature, which is basically 3 scatters (pigs) then free spins until you trigger wins with the wolf (wild) and houses which get blown down after 1 win (with a multiplier bonus), free spins continue until all houses are blown down, the retrigger rebuilds the houses for more spins, a bit "meh" was my initial impression

 

[LaHutti]

Reminds me a bit of Slotronomicon (3Dice).
You can seemingly get a sheetload of freespins that don't pay a lot, with the occasional descent hit if you get the times 4 multiplier, and the wolf actually replaces a high paying symbol, or you can be done really fast, if all 3 houses come up, and the wolf blows them down right away....very similar to Slotronomicon, actually.

Hi,

My 32Red software is stuffed after they added a new slot game. The loading network icon on top keep flashing on and off which is a bit strange. Is that a bug problem? And the new game will not load at all. I have latest version of adobe flash player and shockwave player both same time. So I am not sure whats with them?

 

[LaHutti]

The client will download all the games again, when a new game is added, so the download icon at the top will be flashing until it's all done. You can just leave it on, until it's done.
The new game should load tho. Some people have had problems before, when a new game was added, even for a long time after, and had to uninstall the casino completely, and re-install.

Hi,

I have uninstalled, delete all MGS and microgaming folder, reset all cache etc. Cleaned out registry I only pick out that contains 32Red and then installed. Still has not solve problem with new slot game still loading nothing happen. So I am starting to think is that game is being down right now?

 

[naththo]

Okay looks like instant game is working fine at least. Weird! Edited: Okay I think instant casino is very poor stability. It is very unstable software. Server keep disconnecting me for no reason sometimes and it lags badly. What the heck is going on?

 

[Wild Reels]

been playing it this morning as i had a tenner left over, hit the feature twice and had 2 x100 wins from the feature, and they didnt seem like good runs either, grrr may have to play a bit more now

 

[naththo]

It looks like low variant in normal game but in free game looks quite big prize come out normally at 4x although it doesn't last long as other like Isis with 20 spin at 6x or Black Knight with 243 ways with stack of wilds.

 

[hoff1985]

Piggy Fortunes is not one of my fav's. The two bonus rounds i could hit paid once 31x stake and once 27x stake. The problem is that during normal spins you barely make any good wins so it sucks you down pretty fast. That's what i've experienced... Will not play this often...

 

[dionysus]

havent played this yet, but seems quite like WillHill's Vegas games Once Upon a Jackpot bonus round

 

[Jasminebed]

Played some in fun, with a couple of decent bonus rounds.

Played some in real today, lost my whole deposit with one middling bonus round in a few hundred spins.

I will probably try this game again, but I wish it spun a little faster.

It's nice to see something that has a genuinely different bonus round.

piggys fortune

we tried it tonight

played twice, got games first time didnt pay a hell of a lot, remided me of phantom cash a bit??

after second time we couldnt load it again, definitly reminds me of phantom cash

 

[AudiManinBoro]

Hmm maybe I got lucky or something then. Played yesterday at 32Red and the base game doesnt pay a whole lot no unless you get 5 of the houses but I played for at least 6 hours yesterday just on this one slot and walked away up by the time I had finished. I had LOADS of bonus rounds and I mean loads, many poor. some good but based on my experience so far I would have to classify this slot as low to middling variance. I had a lot of play time for my money and still managed to make a profit on it. Its no game changer but as far as enjoyable little slots go I enjoyed it and when its playing well imo its a good slot for grinding out wagering requirements

 

[dionysus]

2 FS; one rebuild, best result 117X

didn't 2 games come out?

 

[Vegasbum]

and still another slot that forces you to play all the lines. Casinos have gotten just plain greedy. They can't suck enough money quick enough if you have a choice of lines so they make you play all the lines. Just take alook at the new slot releases in the past year and you will see my point. Remember, there is a reason casinos want you to play all the lines.

 

[Greigssy]

This slot cant be a MG designed can it! I played it got 5 red houses ,the second highest paying symbols,on a 0.50 bet and it paid £18.

According to the pay-table 5 wilds are not available and 5 scatters is the highest paying at only 100xbet.

So ,if I've got this right, the biggest win in free-spins is only 400xbet and I would have to get 5 scatters and on a 4x multiplier.

Yes but the bonus comes out extremely frequently. At least it has every time ive played it lol

 

[dionysus]

Not that frequent; dropped 100 at 32red, saw it twice

 

[Greigssy]

It took 150 spins to see the only bonus Ive had. If it wasn't for that £18 win my £40 deposit would have been gone well before I got the bonus.

I think I will give this slot a miss.

 

[AudiManinBoro]

Not that frequent; dropped 100 at 32red, saw it twice

Yet I played the slot for 6 hours and saw it 50 times plus at 32Red. Might justhave been my lucky day then lol

 

[chayton]

I played this game a bit last night but it seemed really boggy and slow. I left after just a few spins, I found the gameplay and the graphics all sort of irritating.

 

[dionysus]

yup; mad slow..havent the patience 'cept for a few spins again

 

[dunover]

The slot is absolutely execrable. Graphics substituting for gameplay. Nearly as bad as Starburst.

They are like at the opposite ends of the spectrum. One is arguably the smoothest slot out there with nothing fancy going on and the other is a clunky, resource demanding, laggy, loaded with ugly graphics, visually unappealing, piece of sh*t.

 

[ChopleyIOM]

I agree with Balth on Starburst, I think it's one of the most aesthetically appealing slots I've ever played - my only problem with it is the ridiculously low variance and the almost total impossibility of actually winning anything on it at small stakes.

I've had Piggy Fortunes rolling for a couple of hours in free money mode now, the bonus round is reasonably entertaining but the base game is standard modern MG fare. Turgid, slow, tedious and somehow manages to run like shit even on a nicely specced media PC with the full download client.

I mean, seriously, even the reel animations aren't smooth on modern MG slots - what's that all about? (It's particularly bad when waiting for the third scatter to drop in, the remaining reels go all jerky and flashy as they lurch past. Yes it's a media centre PC but it's running Windows 7 Premium, fully up to date with drivers and Windows Update, it's got a modern dual-core hyper-threaded processor in it, 4GB of RAM and a 1GB discrete graphics card, it can make a reasonable attempt of running moderately demanding 3D games, it can handle 3Dice's proper 3D slots on the high graphics settings and maintain 60FPS, so I refuse to believe it can't run a fucking MG online slot properly.)

Thinking back to slots like Boogie Monsters and Osbournes, those slots ran fast and smooth and were very entertaining (still are, in fact) - I'd take those over just about any of MG's recent output - what the hell are they thinking these days?

its just pure lazyness on mg part , there losing a fair ammount of players & still spilling out quite frankly poor slots over the last few months ,rarely play mg at all , still have a account at 32red but was going to play last night but didnt & had another look today & yet again decided that i cant be bothered not a good sign for me, come to think ive hardly played in last couple of weeks on any software , ive been reading the forum a fair ammount & with all these no apyments bending of rules im considering knocking it all on the head to much tight rope , although i dont get any problems with the casinos i play at havnt realy had a good four weeks of play anyway .

 

[chuchu59]

To me, it looks to be a clone of Phantom Cash.

 

[Balthazar]

They are aiming at gamers, maybe. That would explain why you now need a $3000 gaming laptop to run their games and why they have so many slots that look more like video games than video slots.

Oh, so you are experienced with Starburst then?

 

[chayton]

I tried again and it felt like I was playing on my old laptop....slow slow slow. I suppose it's a good game to play if you want to extend your playtime.

 

[De Beuker]

Gave it a try last night, had to enable quickspin after 2 spins, as it was indeed too damn slow, but with quickspin it starts to mess up the reel animations, looks pretty awful.

Got 3 bonusrounds within my first (and only) 40 spins and my balance went from 50.- to 90.- playing 0.50 spins so that was ok, but I dont think I'll play it again.

Pity, because the bonusround is quite OK imo.

 

[KasinoKing]

I don't know what gave you that idea...
It's completely different and definitely not a clone of any existing MG slot.

I played it for the first time last night too - I thought it was just me it was running very slow and "clunky" for - but reading the above I see now that it's not.
99% sure this slot was not produced by the same people who made most of MGs previous slots; No intro "movie" to start with, but the biggest give-away is many of the win-lines are different to what we're used to on the older 25-line MG slots. Most notably the "Top left to Bottom right" (and vice versa) line are now straight along with a V in the middle (i.e. like NetEnt & Crypto slots).
See the "old" lines 8, 9, 10 and 11 = not on this slot at all!

So maybe it's running from a different server to most of the other MG games, and that's why it plays so crap...?

As for the game itself; Got the feature quite early on and I did like that quite a lot. But back in normal spins it was just so tedious & boring that I soon got totally fed up with it, threw in a few crazy big bets & then left it.

[smcinoz]

25 line config there is what i would be used to finding in a live aristocrat/igt/konami game

 

[bigbear]

Thought it was my pc as the reels on this are so slow you could virtually go and make a cup of tea in between each spin but looks like others are experiencing the same.Its only redeeming feature is that it is a good cure for insomnia.
