How the Game Plays

Merry Hog is a festive-themed slot from Belatra Games that brings a wealthy pig’s holiday celebrations to a 5x4 grid. The game is a seasonal follow-up to the provider's popular "Richy Hog," retaining its core mechanics but adding a snowy, celebratory atmosphere. Winning combinations are formed across 20 fixed paylines using symbols like ginger cats, bulldog police officers, and various Christmas treats. A unique "memory-effect" feature ensures the game remembers the specific positions of mystery symbols for each individual bet level, allowing for strategic play as symbols transition between spins.

Magic Safes and the Golden Hog

The core of the experience revolves around Magic Safes. These function as nudging mystery symbols that appear in stacks; they reveal matching symbols at the end of a spin and move down one row on subsequent spins until they exit the grid. If a "+1" scatter appears, it can nudge the safes back up to keep them in play. Safes can also reveal the Golden Hog, which awards instant cash prizes ranging from 1x up to 2,500x the stake.

Free Spins Explained

Triggered by three or more Piggy Bank scatters, the free spins round features a horizontal extra reel at the top that drops additional Magic Safes onto the grid. A global win multiplier starts at 1x and increases by 1 with every spin. Special "Police Control" symbols can appear during this mode to freeze Magic Safes in place for three spins, while multiplier symbols (up to 5x) can further boost the total accumulative multiplier for massive win potential.
