Mark: What makes 3 Pigs of Olympus 2: Rise of the DemiHog such an important release for Gaming Corps?
The original 3 Pigs of Olympus was a major success for us, and it became a title that really helped define the personality of Gaming Corps. It combined recognisable characters, strong mechanics and a fun theme that players could instantly connect with.
With the sequel, we knew we had to go bigger. This could not simply be another version of the same game. Rise of the DemiHog had to feel more ambitious, dramatic and rewarding for the player, while still keeping the humour and porcine charm that made the first game so memorable.
Mark: How does the sequel build on the original game?
The sequel takes the 3 Pigs IP back to Olympus but gives the experience more scale. It is still playful and character-led, but there is much more depth in the gameplay.
Players will find upgraded collect mechanics, evolving progression systems, enhanced Free Spins and a stronger sense of build-up throughout the game. The action is set across six reels, four rows and 4,096 ways to win, with a high-volatility profile and rewards of up to 10,000x total bet.
Mark: Can you explain the Collect Level system?
The Collect Level system is one of the key elements of the game. As Collect symbols gather Prize Coins, players ascend through five levels of play, with new mechanics unlocking as the game progresses.
At the earlier levels, Collect symbols award visible Prize Coin values before gaining additional cash prize values and multipliers. As players climb closer towards Olympus, they can trigger Hog & Win, a respin feature where every new symbol resets the counter and all collected values are awarded at the end.
At the final level, uncollected Prize Coins are swept into the Bonus Pot above the reels, creating the chance to trigger the Wheel of Olympus.
Mark: What role does the Wheel of Olympus play?
The Wheel of Olympus is one of the game’s biggest moments. Once triggered, it can award one of 12 prizes, ranging from Mini rewards through to the Olympus x2 prize worth 10,000x total bet.
It gives the game that top-end sense of theatre. There is a strong progression journey leading up to it, so when the wheel comes into play, it’s an explosive moment for players.
Mark: Where does the DemiHog fit into the action?
Free Spins are where the game’s three pigs bring their godly powers to the reels. Poseidon awards additional Free Spins, Zeus starts the feature with a multiplier to wins and Prize Coin values, while Hades activates synced reels with the potential to unlock massive Prize Coin symbols up to 4×4.
It is here that the DemiHog storms the battlefield, powering up whichever pig enhancements are active and adding a fresh layer of unpredictability as the bonus unfolds.
Mark: What type of player is this game designed to appeal to?
Rise of the DemiHog has a broad appeal because it has a familiar theme, strong characters and easy-to-understand features, but it also has enough depth for players who enjoy progression and bonus potential.
The 3 Pigs franchise gives the game personality, while the mechanics create that feeling of escalation. It is playful, but it is also full of high-volatility action, which gives it a strong place in operator portfolios.
Mark: What should affiliates focus on when presenting the game to players?
The main story is the return of the pigs, but in a much bigger Olympus adventure. Affiliates should highlight the sequel angle, the DemiHog, the five Collect Levels, the Bonus Pot, and the Wheel of Olympus with its 10,000x max win.
There is a lot to talk about, but the core message is simple: one of Gaming Corps’ most successful games is back, with the pigs returning to Olympus for a proper mythological comeback packed with divine reward potential.
