Oink Farm

Microgaming's group of partner studios certainly have a thing for jackpot driven games, as evidenced by the constant outflow of them. Some studios more than others. Foxium is one developer which hasn't used jackpots extensively in the past per se, though they have appeared in games likeGods of Seas: Triton's Fortuneand the one-line extravaganza,Foxpot. Well, add another game to the list, as Oink Farm provides keen players with another way of possibly hitting a reasonably sized non-progressive jackpot. Oink Farm isn't exactly the most exciting way of doing so, though the beaming set of animals add a level of life. Perhaps we've come to expect more of Foxium following the flagship releaseCossacks, but Oink Farm was one of their more underwhelming releases. There are a few things to try out, such as the Oink Coin Collect, which creates three spins worth of a Wild Reel in the base game when a meter is filled. When anything becomes sticky in a slot, it's generally a good sign, and entertainment levels did rise in free spins when Wild Reels locked in place for the rest of the round. Nothing extraordinary, but the prospect of all this wild action might be exciting for some. Collecting coins does give you something to do while waiting for the Eggs Rush feature to trigger. That's where the game's max win of5,000x the bethas a chance to bloom and watching chickens drop eggs and run is an amusing way of handling the pick 'n click aspect. Keep in mind, this is the same studio that gave usCossacks The Wild HuntandBoom Pirateswith its 10 million-plus ways to win, so Foxium has the ingenuity to surprise players with shocking numbers and well-made slots. Oink Farm is passable and is likely to perform well with recreational gamers, but it doesn't display the level of ingenuity Foxium has shown in the past. Wild Reels may help quicken the pulse in what is a so-so jackpot game floating amidst an abundant harvest of similarly levelled jackpot games.
