We won’t ask.

Gameplay

We don’t have much to say regarding this slot when it comes to visuals. It looks good, like all of Pragmatic Play’s games. But it doesn’t look good enough to stand out, if that makes sense. Compared to industry leading graphics like NetEnt, this release simply cannot compete! But it has plenty of charm in its own right. The dogs look goofy, and the various animations help immerse players into The Dog House. The only annoyance we have are playing card royals and how they don’t match the slot’s theme.

You play this game on a 5x3 board with 20 paylines which pay left to right only. Available special features include Wilds with multipliers and a free spins bonus. Each Wild that appears has a 2x or 3x multiplier attached to itself. And during free spins, any Wilds that land on the playing field become sticky, drastically increasing the winning potential of this release! It’s during this bonus that all the amazing jackpots get won.

Collect three dog paw Scatters on the first, third and fifth reel to win free spins. The number of extra turns you get is random every time, but ranges between nine and twenty-seven free spins. While this special feature is active, any Wilds that land on the second, third and fourth reel will become frozen in place. They are only released once the extra turns end.

Summary

Average visuals get The Dog House a passing grade. But what propels it into the ranking of excellent are its fun special features and satisfying jackpot!
