Piggy Riches™ puts a choice inside its Free Spins trigger. Three or more Scatters reveal different combinations of spins and multipliers, and the player selects one to begin. Wilds add another layer: line wins involving them pay three times in the main game and can reach a stated multiplier of up to eighteen during Free Spins. These rules make the feature more than a simple Scatter counter, but the missing payout table means the available choices cannot be compared numerically here.

Line wins and Scatter payouts
The official record describes five reels, three rows and fifteen lines. Wilds substitute for any symbol except Scatters and complete winning bet lines. A line win with a Wild is multiplied by three in the main game. Scatters have their own rule: two or more pay the multiplier shown in the paytable times the total bet. Because Scatter payouts and line wins use different bases, they should not be merged into one general Wild or line formula.
When three or more Scatters appear, they change to reveal Free Spins and multiplier combinations. The player must choose one. The feature stays at the same bet level, number of lines and coin value as the triggering game, and a display tracks remaining spins and the active multiplier. Each additional Scatter during Free Spins grants one extra spin. Wild line wins in the feature can multiply the coin win by up to eighteen, though the saved page does not preserve the full range or selection mapping for the offers.
Choice adds agency, but the table matters
The selection is the distinctive decision point: the Scatter symbols expose different Free Spins/multiplier pairs, and the player chooses which pair to take. The saved record does not list those pairs, so it cannot support a claim that one choice is more favorable or quantify the trade-off between duration and multiplier. The responsible reading is simply that the player chooses among displayed combinations. Free Spins retriggers then add one spin per Scatter, while Wild wins can use the bonus’s larger stated multiplier ceiling.
These mechanics create two paths for the feature to change: a chosen starting package and later extra spins. The source does not say whether a retrigger also changes the multiplier, so this review does not claim it does. Nor does the ×18 upper figure establish how often a Wild win reaches that value. A player can understand what to watch for without assuming the best offer or top multiplier is typical.
Reference configuration
The catalog lists RTP 96.38%, volatility 5.4 and maximum payout of 2,400 times the bet for the exact title. Operator configurations may differ. The cap does not show the probability of a specific selectable offer, Wild multiplier or Scatter retrigger.
Strengths and weak points
Strengths
The trigger presents a real choice among displayed Free Spins and multiplier combinations, while same-bet play and one-spin-per-Scatter retriggers are clearly documented.
Weaknesses
The saved evidence omits the selectable combinations and the range behind the ×18 Wild ceiling. Without those details, players cannot compare the offered packages or estimate how often high values occur.
Our Editor’s View
Piggy Riches combines familiar line play with a meaningful selection moment. Scatters can pay independently, then three or more reveal different Free Spins and multiplier packages to choose from. Wild line wins have a threefold treatment in the main game and a higher stated ceiling during the bonus; additional Scatters add spins. The same-bet setup preserves the wager context from trigger to feature. Its main limitation is informational: without the actual offer table, the choice cannot be weighed, and the rules do not say whether retriggers affect the multiplier. The slot should appeal to players who like selecting a bonus configuration rather than receiving a single fixed award. Those comparing exact value should consult the in-game paytable, since neither the maximum payout nor the ×18 ceiling reveals the likelihood or value of each option.
