About The Great Pigsby Megapays Slot
Two mechanics stack on top of each other here, and that stacking is the whole reason the game exists. The base layer is a standard Megaways engine across six reels with up to 117,649 ways. The second layer is Relax Gaming's Megapays progressive ladder, with four jackpot tiers running down the right edge of the grid: MINI, MIDI, MAJOR, MEGA. Live counters tick upward (around 130, 1,587, 20,032, and 300,020 EUR at default network seed). The Megapays feature can fire on any base spin, with bigger bets nudging the trigger odds higher.
When Megapays kicks in, the game picks one royal symbol (A, K, Q, J, 10, or 9) and runs a locked-symbol respin chain. Every instance of that chosen symbol sticks; the reels respin until nothing new lands. Final tally decides the tier. 4 to 7 hits pays MINI, 8 to 11 pays MIDI, 12 to 14 pays MAJOR, and 15 or more pays MEGA. No regular line wins resolve during the feature, so it lives or dies on lock count alone. Combined jackpot RTP is 9.44%, baked into the headline 96.19%.
The base game runs its own parallel system through the Piggy Bank above the reels. Wilds only land on reels 2 to 6, and when one drops it expands to fill the entire reel and carries a multiplier equal to the active symbol count on that reel (so a five-tall reel with a Wild becomes a Wild reel with x5 attached). Each Wild then drops into the piggy bank, and each collected Wild rolls a random chance to trigger one of three modifiers: a 10-spin Free Spins round, a Wild Re-spin (2 to 5 reels turn fully wild with x2 to x7 multipliers each), or a Great Pigsby ReSpin where 3 to 9 of the top Pigsby Sr symbols overlay onto the reels before the spin resolves.
Free Spins use a royal-deactivation system. Scatters land only inside the round and each one adds 2 spins while removing the lowest-active royal from the paytable, replacing it with a high or mid symbol on the reels. After all five royals are upgraded, the math gets noticeably top-heavy. There's no buy-bonus option in this build despite translation strings hinting at one, so trigger luck is the only path in. Visual world is a moonlit purple-and-gold roaring-twenties manor with marble columns, the Pigsby family pig dressed in monocle, top hat and cigar - a direct Gatsby parody. If you want the same theme without the progressive jackpots, The Great Pigsby Dream Drop swaps the Megapays ladder for Relax's Dream Drop pool. Bet range tops out at 50 EUR per spin, half the usual Relax cap.
