Wild Hog Luau Slots

We guess slot game developers must be keen on creating themes no one else has thought of yet. Why else would you see pigs dressed in Hawaiian clothing on the reels of this game? Welcome to a Wild Hog Luau, where the hogs are dressed to have a superb time and ready to surprise you with a few good features too. We like mixed themes, so maybe you’ll enjoy this slot as much as we did. Shall we start?

Can you work out where the game comes from?

Plenty of slots in the Realtime Gaming collection exhibit a sense of humor. So, if you thought this might be another one of those, you are correct.

They’ve treated us to a demo as well

It’s easy enough to load this version of the game to try it without putting a cent down as a bet. Many RTG casinos make the demos accessible to non-members too.

More about the game theme

We did promise you pigs (or wild hogs) and a Hawaiian theme, and that is what you get here. No hog roasts here, except maybe if someone gets roasted for wearing too loud a shirt!

The design is superb too

That sense of humor and light touch is seen throughout this game. Think Hawaii and you think of bright colors, so expect plenty of those to crop up as the action gets underway. It looks like we’re playing underneath the straw roof of a beach hut, which keeps with the theme.

How to play the Wild Hog Luau slot game

Once loaded, the game displays five reels. Some RTG titles include progressive jackpots but sadly this doesn’t rank as one of them. There is a wild in this game, displayed as the skull of a hog. This substitutes for all but one other symbol found on the reels and in the paytable. The exception is a totem pole. And you guessed it, the totem pole is made from a selection of hog heads.

Fewer paylines than you might imagine

Many RTG games adopt 20, 25, or even 30 paylines. This isn’t one of them. They’ve reduced the count down to just eight in this case. It does make it easy to cover the lot with an affordable wager though.

How much can you wager on Wild Hog Luau?

You’ll play one coin on every line in this game. Coins go from a penny to $5, which means the wagers range from eight cents to $40.

Make sure you check out the paytable

This is an important feature of the game. If you’re new to this title and haven’t tried it before, read the table to see what’s on offer. RTG gives you a link through to the table just under reel one.

One bonus element in the game

It doesn’t happen on a second screen; instead, it occurs on the reels. It’s known as a Lucky Streak Respin. Winning combos are automatically held where they landed while all other positions spin again. This could improve the first prize you found. If it does, or if a second prize appears, another respin is triggered. When you finally get a losing spin of the reels, the game resets to normal.

Can you secure any free games?

You can. Three scattered totem poles mark the start of 10 free games in Wild Hog Luau. You can trigger more freebies while inside the feature, but the second trigger earns eight games rather than the original 10. Whenever a prize is won, the same Lucky Streak Respin element kicks into action. This stretches your free spins out further and, in this case, comes with a multiplier too. The more prize-winning spins you get in a row, the bigger that multiplier would get.

No firm RTP is known

This is not a surprise when we’re dealing with an RTG slot game.

Does the game deserve a top rating?

We are going to give Wild Hog Luau 8/10, as it gives you a mix of respins, free spins, and multipliers to keep things interesting. We would have given it another point for a progressive jackpot and a final point for a bonus round on another screen.

The paytable prizes reflect the bet chosen

Some paytables are like this, and it is wise to be aware of it. If you want to read through the paytable, set your wager first and you can be sure you are looking at the relevant set of prizes.

The hogs bring on the entertainment

You can, too, if you play the demo version without any need to make real bets on the game.

Eight cents give you a real bet on the reels

Wild Hog Luau will appeal to players with smaller budgets. At just eight cents per spin minimum, a small budget gets plenty of mileage in this game.

Mobile access available too

The game was designed to work well on iPad, iPhone, and Android, so keep that in mind when you’re out and about and want something to do.
