Galaxy Pig Casino Review

Prepare to blast off for an all-new online casino experience with Galaxy Pig Casino, a Curacao-licensed site that first appeared on our radars earlier in 2016.

Featuring an unusual mascot in the form of a cheerful-looking piggy in a space suit, Galaxy Pig Casino has one of the more inventive visual themes we’ve seen on our travels and the site is further complemented by a rich palette of galactic purples and blues to help it stand out from the crowd.

Available in both English and German language versions, the site is primarily powered by NetEnt software to give players access to a wide range of top-notch slots and table games, but users will also find titles from a variety of slightly more diverse studios including Yggdrasil Gaming and Playson.

All in all, this makes for a fairly diverse casino experience that will provide players with a great range of gaming options, though the site is not currently open to UK players as well as those from a number of other territories throughout Europe. 

As ever, we’d advise that players check the local online gambling laws in their jurisdiction before attempting to sign up for an account with the site.

Out Of This World

Given its predominantly NetEnt-powered line-up, the greatest selection of games at Galaxy Pig Casino comes in the form of video slots, with players being able to access virtually the full range of titles from the studio. These include the very latest releases like Jimi Hendrix, Aloha! Cluster Pays and Guns N’ Roses as well as established favourites like Gonzo’s Quest and the Jack Hammer series.

The presence of Yggdrasil Gaming and Playson among the site’s portfolio of software providers also results in a few more unusual games being included in the Galaxy Pig Casino line-up, with the creepy Wicked Circus and all-action Space Corsairs offering players something a little different from the standard NetEnt fare. All games are also available for instant play, meaning no download is required.

Admittedly, the navigation at Galaxy Pig Casino is a little clunky, with the fact that all games are listed on individual pages meaning that players often have to make several clicks to find the title they’re looking for. Additionally, there is little in the way of filters to organise games, but the site does feature a handy search bar to allow players to manually input the names of any specific titles.

Beyond the slot offering at Galaxy Pig Casino, players will find a fairly diverse selection of table games on offer, with the standard Roulette, Blackjack and Baccarat options being joined by a wide range of casino poker titles including Caribbean Stud Poker, Red Dog and Texas Hold’em Pro. Unfortunately there is no live casino suite at Galaxy Pig Casino – something that is fairly surprising given how new the site is – so players looking for live interaction will need to search elsewhere.

The line-up at Galaxy Pig Casino is completed by a small selection of four video poker titles – namely Jacks or Better, Deuces Wild, Joker Poker and All American Poker – and all of these games can be played in single or multi-hand formats to suit your bankroll. The site also offers Keno, Lucky Double and Triple Wins for players searching for something a bit different from conventional casino games. 

Boldly Going Where No Site Has Gone Before

Given Galaxy Pig Casino has only been in operation for a few months, it’s no surprise to discover that the site is fully optimised for the modern breed of mobile customer. Indeed, the vast majority of titles at the site are available on iOS, Android and most other HTML5-enabled portable devices, meaning the site is incredibly easy to access from your preferred smartphone or tablet. No download is required to play any of the games at Galaxy Pig Casino and the mobile version operates in exactly the same way as the desktop client, albeit with the benefit of touch-screen technology.

Prepare To Launch

Players at Galaxy Pig Casino will find that depositing and withdrawing funds from the site is an incredibly straightforward process, with most major payment processing options accepted. The list of valid deposit methods at the casino includes direct bank transfer, Visa, Visa Electron, MasterCard, Maestro, Skrill and Neteller, with only the two debit cards on that list (Visa Electron and Maestro) not being available for withdrawals. All deposits with the exception of bank transfers are instantaneous, while withdrawal times vary from 24 hours for eWallets to 3-5 days for bank cards.

A Galaxy Of Offers

As a fledgling online casino site, Galaxy Pig Casino obviously offers the very best in welcome promotions in a bid to attract new customers. When signing up at the site players can instantly benefit from a 100% deposit match up to £/€250 and a maximum award of 50 free spins, with that generous offer being reserved for players who load up their account with £/€100 or more. The deposit match bonus comes with some fairly manageable play-through requirements, while there are also a series of daily free spin and cash back incentives to reward loyal players for their custom.

Ground Control To Major Tom

The range of support options available to players at Galaxy Pig Casino are something of a mixed bag, in that although a live help service is available seven days a week, it is limited to certain business hours. 

While this does give players the opportunity to instantly connect with a customer support representative for quick conflict resolution, live help is only available between 08:00 and 16:00 GMT – not really the times of day you’d expect most players to be in action. 

Outside of these hours, players are able to reach the casino via online contact form and will receive a reply to their chosen email address within 24 hours, but no direct contact phone number is currently provided by the site.

Charting New Horizons

Overall, Galaxy Pig Casino is a site that delivers on a number of key aspects but falls woefully short in others. Starting with the positives, the site looks great and has a unique theme and title that will instantly attract players who are bored of the cookie-cutter design found at most online casinos. The slot offering, meanwhile, is suitably diverse and includes many of the hottest new titles in instant-play format, with a range of great offers providing plenty of incentives for new players to sign up.

The negative aspects of Galaxy Pig Casino, however, come when you look beyond the video slots and consider the site’s overall gaming package. The lack of a live casino suite is disappointing for such a recent venture, while the small selection of video pokers and other games doesn’t provide a huge amount of scope for players looking for something a bit different. The customer support offering could also be improved to include more convenient business hours and the lack of any form of direct contact phone number means Galaxy Pig Casino still has to be considered a work in progress.
