Bonus Features
Karate Bonus
Three of the pig scatter symbols anywhere on the reels will reward you with entry into the Karate Bonus game. The ultimate aim is to earn seven different coloured karate belts to play the Final Showdown and to obtain them you need to play the Pork Chop bonus and the Hammer Bonus a combined seven times. Your current belt is displayed in the top left hand corner of the reels.

- Here you must pick three of the barrels hanging above the pigs head; each time he will bring the barrel down and karate chop it, revealing a prize.
- Hammer Bonus
- This is a similar bonus but here you choose which taro to headbutt – prizes will be be won until you hit one that stuns the pig, ending the round.
- Final Showdown
- Once you have all seven belts you can enter the Final Showdown; there are three rounds of a fight to compete in here and before each fight you must choose one of two punch combinations. You’ll always progress to the next round but if you win there’s a bonus amount for you.
- Once you’ve completed this round the belts reset back to white.
Free Spins
Gold coin scatter symbols on reels one and five will reward you with fifteen free spins; all wins are doubled during this feature and it’s also possible to re-trigger the spins by landing the coins on the correct reels again.
