Pigaboom by X UP

The aim of Pigaboom is to grow your win total by sending the pig character deeper and deeper into space. The further the pig travels, the larger the total win multiplier increases. But there's a catch – the pig will randomly explode at any moment which immediately ends the round. Your aim is to cash out your win before the pig explodes. Any players who haven’t collected their winnings before the pig explodes lose the round! Below is a complete step-by-step guide to playing Pigaboom by X UP:

Step 1: Set your bet amount

Bets can be placed anywhere from $0.10 to $100. Open up the bet size menu by pressing the coin stack button, where you can choose several quick bet size options, increase or decrease the bet size with the + and - buttons or type your exact bet size into the display field.

Note: Pigaboom has a dual bet panel. This means you can configure two bets to run simultaneously on the same round. Bets can be configured independently across both panels, allowing unique simultaneous bets.

Step 2: Understand the Bonus Buys

Pigaboom is unique in that it has four bonus buy features with special mechanics to take advantage of. Below we explain the difference of each bonus buy mode compared to regular play.

Regular Play – This is the classic crash game mode. Place a bet, watch the multiplier rise throughout the round and cash out to collect your winnings before the pig randomly explodes. Simple, familiar crash game experience.

Lock Bonus – Costs ×2 your base bet. Lock in innings throughout the round. This guarantees to win even if the pig explodes before you collect. Plus, if you do manage to cash out, your locked amount is added on top of the cash out multiplier. For example:

• You lock at ×2 and the game crashes at ×4 – you still win ×2.
• You lock at ×5 and the cash out at ×10 – you win ×5 plus ×10 for a total of ×15

Insurance Bonus – Costs ×3 your base bet. You randomly receive an insurance multiplier anywhere between ×2 and ×4 when the round starts. If you accept the insurance multiplier when the game begins, it automatically cashes out once the target is reached. If the game crashes before reaching your insurance multiplier, accepted or not accepted, you receive the target multiplier as a win regardless. For example:

• You receive and accept ×4 insurance. You cash out at ×2, or the round crashes at ×2, you still win ×4.
• You accept and receive ×4 insurance, but the round reaches ×10. You still win ×4 because it will automatically cash out at ×4 insurance target.
• You receive ×4 insurance but don’t accept it and the round reaches ×10. You can still cash out ×10 and win!

Wild Bonus – Costs ×5 your base bet. At the start of the round you get a random multiplier boost (between ×2 and ×100). Your win multiplier now increases way faster! For example:

• You receive a ×10 wild multiplier, and the base game rising multiplier reaches ×5. Your total win multiplier is ×50 (×10 + ×5 = ×50). You cash out and win ×50 your bet.

Boom Bonus - Costs ×6 your base bet. No matter what, you always win the multiplier at the crash point, capped at a maximum of ×150. For example

• The round crashes at ×5, you win ×5 your bet.
• The round crashes at ×50, you win ×50 your bet.
• The round crashes at ×300, you win ×150 your bet (the max win for this bonus is ×150.

Step 3: Choose your game mode and place a bet!

Lock in your bets during the pre round countdown. Once the round begins, the pig character will start flying through space while the rising multiplier counts up alongside. Throughout the flight, the pig will eat up coins placed periodically along the path. Coins collected can be used for free bets, more on this later.

The rising multiplier always begins at ×1.00 and can reach anywhere up to ×30,000.

Step 4: Cash out your win before the crash

This is the fundamental win mechanic of Pigaboom. Your aim now is to cash out and collect your win before the round randomly crashes (the pig explodes). If you fail to cash out before the crash, you lose the round (unless you have a bonus buy with a special guaranteed win condition.

The value of the rising multiplier at the tim of your cash out is added to your bet as a total win amount, and immediately credited to your balance. For example, if you bet $5 and cash out at ×10, you win $50.

Hero Jackpot

All players' uncollected coin values accumulate into the Hero Budget. Once the multiplier in a round exceeds 10x, the Hero Jackpot becomes active. The last three players to cash out before the crash (after 10x) will share the Hero Jackpot:

• 1st place - highest share
• 2nd & 3rd - decreasing shares

If less than 3 winners or if 10x is never reached, the leftover coins are moved to the Mystery Box.

Mystery Box

When coins are not fully distributed from the Hero Jackpot, they are transferred to the Mystery Budget. Here's how it works:

• Triggering the Mystery Box – Before each round, a decision is made (based on the current Mystery Budget) on whether the Mystery Box will trigger. The higher the Mystery Budget, the greater the chance of it activating.
• Target Multiplier – If triggered, a provably fair system selects a target multiplier between 4x and 8x. If the round's multiplier exceeds this value, the Mystery Box activates.
• Reward Distribution – All active players (those who haven't cashed out yet) at the moment of Mystery Box trigger will share the Mystery Box prize in proportion to their bet amount.

‍

The default theoretical Return to Player (RTP) is 97.0% and the maximum multiplier is ×30,000.

Pigaboom takes classic crash gaming to a brand new level, innovating the standard format with several exciting ways to bet against the rising multiplier. X UP have really changed the meta of crash games here by building in a truly unique title.

Pigaboom still keeps all A-tier the traditional crash game features such as dual betting panels, all inclusive auto play functionality and competitive global leaderboards. What changes the game here are the four bonus buy modes and the addition of a built in ‘coins’ system – an accumulative second currency which can be played to turn profit into real money. In some ways it's similar to rakeback however it accumulates on both wins and losses. 

There's even a jackpot system that rewards those players with balls of steel. The last 3 players to cash out share the collective total of the Hero Jackpot. Unspent hero jackpot coins get awarded in random Mystery Box rounds.

There honestly just so much going on that adds value above and beyond the standard crash game that we genuinely believe this is going to benchmark crash gaming moving forward. We can't speak highly enough of this Pigaboom by X UP.
