Squealin Riches Demo Slot - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Introduction

Pear Fiction Studios is a Canadian company which, despite its punning name, is very serious about creating state-of-the-art games. You can find Pear Fiction free slots on many of the usual casino sites and here the self-styled 'PearFictionists' have created a game that is unashamedly about cash, in the manner of something like Red Tiger’s Piggy Riches Megaways slot. So whether you’re interested in trying to win cash prizes or just looking for some fun with free slots, Pear Fiction may have some appealing options. 

Squealin Riches has a 5-reel, 4-column grid with 1024 possible winning combinations. The minimum bet size is 0.20 and the maximum is 50. There are 8 regular symbols: Purple Safe, Red Money Bag, Blue Purse, Green Banknotes and the top 4 playing cards. The wild is a large W and the free spins scatter is a piggy bank.

Theme, graphics and soundtrack

The screen is piled high with gold coins and jewellery against a grand purple bank vault. The grid is colourful and bright, the music is big band jazz, the 5 jackpots are listed to the left-hand side and reminders of features and bonuses popup constantly above the reels. Behind the grid we can see the wheel, slowly and temptingly turning. Sharp, smart and to the point.

Squealin Riches RTP and variance

According to Pear Fiction, Squealin Riches has an RTP of 96.02 per cent and its volatility is high.

Squealin Riches review: our verdict

Although thematically limited, this is an involving game with a lot to keep your eye on in the base game and plenty of bonuses to hold the interest. The RTP may be only modest but the maximum pay-out is generous and the free spins, respins and bonus wheel keep things moving nicely.
