Slot Review: Porky Payout

Color us surprised that the Hanna Barbera corporation has not yet sued Microgaming for trademark infringement for its Porky Payout title. The lead character is an anthropomorphic pig wearing a suit jacket and clutching a lit cigar. We don’t know if he chuckles and says: “Th-that’s all, folks!” but the similarities to Porky Pig are much too close to be denied. Anyway, Porky Payout is a slot game based around the premise that this flush porcine is giving away some of his expansive bounty to you, the lucky slots player. There is nothing exceptional about this middle-of-the-road slot game offering; certainly nothing that made us squeal!

Porky Payout is a five-reel, twenty-payline slot machine game. Coin values run as low as one cent, and go up to fifty cents with a max coin allowance of four hundred coins (twenty per payline). That’s two hundred dollars per spin. The jackpot tops out at fifteen thousand dollars, or seventy-five hundred dollars. That’s certainly not a stingy payout by any means, but nothing spectacular, either.

A tray of cigars, sparkling jeweled cuff links, and a sexy lady pig (shall we call her Miss Piggy?) are all present on the reels, along with rounded and bubbly letters and numbers. There are wild and scatter symbols, as well as a bonus game in which you can pick from several gold coins to get a collected bonus amount. Some of the bonus amounts are very generous, which should really make this feature quite popular with players.
