The Great Pigsby Megapays Slot Review

The Great Pigsby Megapays (Relax Gaming)

I see The Great Pigsby Megapays as Relax Gaming taking its 2019 hit and wiring it into a Megaways and Megapays framework. You get 6 reels with 2 to 7 rows, giving up to 117649 ways to win, with bets from 0.20 to 50 per spin. The stated RTP is 96.19%, split into 86.75% for standard play and 9.44% feeding the progressive jackpots, and the slot runs with high volatility and a hit frequency around 27.42%.

The action plays out in front of Pigsbys mansion, with searchlights, hedges shaped like pigs and a jazzy soundtrack setting a Great Gatsby style party mood. Wins land from left to right on adjacent reels, and there are no cascades, so the spin rhythm feels clean and punchy. For me, this title is all about the tension of random features and the possibility of a huge Megapays hit sitting behind every spin.

The Great Pigsby Megapays Slot Information

On the paytable in The Great Pigsby Megapays, the lower paying symbols are 10, J, Q, K and A. Six of a kind for any of these pays 0.4x your stake, which is typical for a Megaways style grid. The higher paying symbols are a whisky glass, gramophone, tiara, the glamorous female pig and Mr Pigsby himself. Six of a kind premiums pay between 0.5x and 3x your bet, with the male pig as the top regular symbol.

The golden pig coin is the wild symbol, appearing on reels 2 to 6. When it lands, it expands to cover the whole reel and shows a multiplier from 2x to 7x, which represents how many wilds that reel counts as for win calculations. Each wild also drops into the piggy bank above the reels, which keeps you eyeing every coin because that collection is the key to triggering the main features.

The Great Pigsby Megapays Slot Features

Every expanding wild in The Great Pigsby Megapays is stored in the Piggy Bank, and at random the bank can smash and trigger one of three features. I like this setup, as standard spins always feel like they are feeding a background meter, even if you cannot see an exact count. When the bank breaks, you either get Free Spins, a Wild Respin or a Great Pigsby Respin, each with its own way of throwing extra value over the grid.

Free Spins start with 10 spins. During the bonus, landing a scatter adds 2 extra free spins and removes one low royal in the order 10, J, Q, K, then A. Every removed royal is replaced on each spin by a randomly chosen premium, shown on a meter above the reels, and that premium can change from spin to spin. Once you have stripped several royals, the screen can become stacked with high paying symbols, which is when the slot really starts to pay.

The Wild Respin feature in The Great Pigsby Megapays awards a single respin where between 2 and 5 reels turn fully wild, though reel 1 never becomes wild. Each wild reel shows its own multiplier between 2x and 7x, and these multipliers multiply together across reels, so a good combination can erupt into a serious hit. Great Pigsby Respin instead sprinkles 3 to 9 top-tier Pigsby symbols across the reels before they stop, which can throw up chunky line wins when they land in the right places.

Megapays in The Great Pigsby Megapays

The Megapays jackpot feature in The Great Pigsby Megapays can trigger randomly on any spin, with higher stakes slightly improving your chances. A royal symbol is picked as the special Megapays symbol, and you move to a respin mode where only that symbol matters. You keep getting respins as long as at least one Megapays symbol lands, and collected symbols push you up the ladder towards four progressive jackpots, from Mini through Midi and Major to the Mega prize starting at 300000.

The 200 Spins The Great Pigsby Megapays Slot Experience

When I ran roughly 200 spins on The Great Pigsby Megapays at moderate stakes, the slot behaved in line with its high volatility label. The base game had stretches of smaller wins punctuated by sudden bursts when the Piggy Bank woke up. I landed Free Spins once in that batch, after a decent run of collected wilds, and watched the royals drop away slowly while premiums filled in. Wild Respins felt rarer, but when 3 or 4 wild reels lined up, the hit really stood out.

The Great Pigsby Megapays Slot Conclusion

For me, The Great Pigsby Megapays works as a stylish jackpot slot that still has solid punch even without the Megapays game. The expanding wilds, three Piggy Bank features and the royal-removal Free Spins round combine well, and the 20000x max win outside the jackpots gives proper top-end potential. The theme is handled with a light touch, mixing luxury with humour, and the spin pace feels smooth enough for long sessions.

There are trade-offs. The absence of cascades means some players may miss extra action after wins, and with 9.44% of the RTP tied to the jackpots, the main game sits at 86.75%, so dry patches are no surprise. The Megapays feature is rare, as you would expect from a networked progressive. If you are happy riding that variance for a chance at both hefty bonus hits and a growing Mega pot, this slot earns a place in the rotation.
