Payday Pig (Booming Games) – Review & Demo Play

Payday Pig Slot Overview

As a long-time spinner, I rate Payday Pig from Booming Games as a tidy 3x3, 9 payline slot with a cheerful farm vibe that actually works. Volatility sits at medium-high, hit rate hovers around 23.06%, and the RTP is 95.6%, which feels a touch low. Stakes run from £0.10 to £100. The top prize peaks at 2,000x the bet. The upbeat soundtrack and clean visuals help longer sessions, while the compact grid keeps rounds quick and decision free.

Payday Pig Slot Information

You spin three reels and three rows, with wins for three of a kind on the 9 paylines starting from the leftmost reel. During Free Spins the grid adds a fourth reel while keeping three rows, and the number of paylines rises to 12. The setup keeps things simple in base play yet opens space for the number mechanic during features. I found the pacing snappy, and the paytable easy to learn after a few dozen spins.

Pay symbols come in six types. Lows are single, double, and triple BARs. Highs are a bag of gold, a blue leprechaun hat, and the pink pig, which pays up to 13x for three. The multicoloured W is the Wild, substituting for regulars but not the Scatter or Piggy Factor. Three Wilds can pay 50x. The Scatter is the Piggy Bonus snout, and the Piggy Factor shows as an X used for instant win numbers in features.

Payday Pig Slot Features

The feature set is tight and themed. You get Wild Symbol action, the Piggy Factor Re-Spin, and Piggy Factor Free Spins. Both Piggy Factor modes revolve around landing X on the first reel and then spinning digits on the other reels to form numbers that pay as instant wins based on your stake. This turns the compact grid into a simple number-builder that can spike rounds without long build-up, which I rate for quick sessions.

Wild Symbol in Payday Pig

The Wild steps in for all pay symbols, helping three-of-a-kind lines on the 3x3 board, but it will not stand in for Piggy Bonus or Piggy Factor. On a tidy setup like this, a single Wild landing in the right spot often completes a high-pay trio. If three Wilds line up themselves, that’s a 50x hit, which carries base play nicely when the Piggy Factor does not show. I saw those Wild lines more often than I expected.

I tend to treat Wilds here as steady value rather than chase material. With RTP at 95.6% and medium-high volatility, padding the balance with Wild-made lines keeps me in the game while waiting for X on reel one. It also helps that Wilds can land during features, stitching regular wins around the number hits. If you fancy quick outcomes, the Wild behaviour fits the 3x3 rhythm without dragging the pace or cluttering the reels.

Piggy Factor Re-Spin in Payday Pig

The Piggy Factor Re-Spin triggers when at least one X symbol lands on reel one. Reels two and three then spin again showing digits from 0 to 9 or blanks. After the stop, each row that contains an X will read the digits from left to right to form a number. That number multiplies your bet and pays instantly. It feels like a mini feature that can kick in out of nowhere and tidy up a slow base.

I rate this as the heartbeat of Payday Pig in the base game. The hit rate sits near 23.06%, and these re-spins do plenty of lifting between free spin rounds. When blanks appear the round can whiff, yet the upside of roomy two-digit or even three-digit builds keeps it lively. The simplicity helps with bet sizing too, since the payout scales straight off the stake without extra steps or side maths to track across the grid.

Piggy Factor Free Spins in Payday Pig

Three Piggy Bonus scatters trigger 10 Free Spins and pay 1x the current bet on the trigger. The grid expands to four reels with three rows, and paylines lift to 12. The first reel can stack Piggy Factor symbols, so you often enter spins with X already in view. Reels two, three, and four then cycle digits or blanks. It is a clear, repeatable pattern that keeps the focus on forming numbers rather than collecting rare items.

After each free spin, any row containing an X will read its digits from left to right to make a number. That value multiplies the stake and adds to the total for the spin. With multiple rows active, you can land several separate numbers at once. I like how transparent the maths feels here. You see the digits settle, the rows count out, and the payout flows in without side features getting in the way.

The ceiling is capped, yet the mode can stack handsome rounds when big digits line up across more than one active row. With medium-high volatility, streaks will happen, but the extra reel keeps the number building frequent enough to stay engaged. I have seen tidy spells where two rows landed solid numbers back to back, pushing close to the best outcomes. The advertised top reaches 2,000x, which suits a compact format built around short, punchy features.

Payday Pig Review Summary

Payday Pig gives a lively 3x3 session with a neat twist from the Piggy Factor. The instant win numbers mesh well with the Wild-led base, and the free spins round adds enough space to ramp things up. The RTP sits on the low side, and the cap at 2,000x keeps a lid on absolute highs, yet the hit rate and clean flow make it a handy pick when I want fast spins without fussy build-up.
