🐷 You Can Piggy Bank on It: Slot Overview
Editor’s note: This review is based on an early-access version. Final game content may result in updates post-launch.
Money collection slots continue to thrive, and few studios have capitalized on the trend quite like Reel Kingdom, a partner of Pragmatic Play. Best known for the Big Bass Bonanza franchise, Reel Kingdom has practically built an empire on this mechanic — and now they’re spinning the formula with a fresh theme in You Can Piggy Bank on It. This isn’t a Big Bass title per se, but it shares the same DNA: cash symbol collection, a cheerful animal mascot, and a feature-centric free spins round — only this time, we’ve swapped fins for hooves.
Visually, it’s all fun and mischief. Two gleeful pigs tag along as players crack into a vault stuffed with loot, celebrating their porky heist. But the job’s not done — after the vault, there’s the getaway, the hiding, and maybe, just maybe, laundering the loot (we’re talking in cartoon terms here). Of course, we’ll assume these pigs are just “symbolically rich” rather than actual fugitives. After all, in the world of online slots, no harm in pigs enjoying their digital wealth — especially when it’s tied to engaging features and win potential that’s worth chasing.
🧨 Game Setup & Symbols – You Can Piggy Bank on It
You Can Piggy Bank on It runs across a 5×3 main grid with 10 paylines, alongside a locked 5×3 vault grid that only comes into play during free spins. Bets range from €0.10 to €250, and for those eager to hit bonuses faster, there’s an Ante Bet option — increasing your stake by 50% for a better shot at triggering free spins.
Underneath the playful theme sits a high volatility math model, boasting a maximum RTP of 96.53%, placing it firmly in the territory of big-risk, big-reward slots.
💰 Symbols & Payouts
-
Low pays: 10–A card ranks — pay up to 10x your bet for a five-of-a-kind combo.
-
High pays: Gold bars, bags of cash, safes, and a bank building — delivering 20x to 200x the stake for 5 OAK.
-
Money symbols: Land with cash values ranging from 0.2x to 200x the bet — but these can only be collected during the bonus round.
-
TNT Wilds: These appear only in free spins, substituting for all regular symbols and collecting any visible Money symbols.
🐷 Bonus Round – Free Spins & Piggy Vault
Just like in other collector-style slots from Reel Kingdom, the base game is relatively uneventful — until you land 3, 4, or 5 scatter symbols, which triggers 10, 15, or 20 free spins, respectively.
Once the round kicks off, the vault above the reels opens, revealing 14 Money symbols with values ranging from 0.2x to 10x your bet.
Here’s where the action unfolds:
-
When a TNT Wild lands:
-
It collects all visible Money symbol values on the main grid.
-
The center tile of the grid turns into a special zone that shows a Pigs symbol.
-
Then, vault Money symbols drop down and are collected.
-
The middle tile spins again, revealing either:
-
🐖 Pigs – vault values are collected, new values appear, and the spin continues.
-
🚔 Police – collection ends immediately.
-
-
You can retrigger the bonus with +10 spins by landing 3 scatters during the feature. In this phase, scatters appear only on reels 1, 3, and 5.
💥 Feature Buy
For players who want to skip the grind, the bonus round can be bought for 100x your stake. This guarantees 3 to 5 scatters, instantly launching free spins.
🐖 You Can Piggy Bank on It: Slot Verdict
When it comes to high volatility, low-ceiling Money collector slots, few do it quite like Reel Kingdom — for better or worse. You Can Piggy Bank on It swaps out the fishing rods of Big Bass Bonanza for pig masks and vaults, but the DNA is unmistakably similar.
Like its fishy predecessor, the base game is fairly dry, with no TNT Wilds appearing until free spins. Still, some decent-paying symbols may offer enough breadcrumbs to keep players engaged until the main show begins.
That main show? The vault mechanic, which adds a clever twist to the familiar formula. Prizes in the vault may not be massive on their own, but the chance to chain multiple collections — so long as Pig symbols keep landing — injects tension and potential into the round. It’s more about the streak than the size, and when the vault re-rolls values and keeps paying out, the excitement can build nicely.
On the flip side, this isn’t a slot with sky-high potential. With a max win capped at 2,100x, it’s right in line with the original Big Bass Bonanza — though the odds of hitting that cap here are a bit more generous. Still, in a world of 10,000x+ max win monsters, it may not turn many heads.
Ultimately, You Can Piggy Bank on It is a decent side project from a studio that clearly understands its audience. It’s not going to revolutionize the genre, but for players who enjoy grinding toward bonus rounds and incremental Money symbol hits, it offers a tidy little ride — just don’t expect to bust the bank.
