The Dog House Multihold – Pragmatic Play
Provider Pragmatic Play is an unstoppable force within the casino industry, with multiple game releases every month for years back to back and a long list of successful titles. In my latest slot review, I looked at the slot titled ‘The Knight King‘, which includes a max win capped at 5,000x and a Free Spins feature with a special Money Symbol. In today’s review, we are learning all about ‘The Dog House Multihold’, which is set to launch on the 27th of Feburary.
The original game is titled ‘The Dog House‘, which was originally released in 2019. The second instalment in this game series is titled ‘The Dog House Megaways‘, released in 2020. Then a third release, titled ‘The Dog House Dice’, was released in January 2023. Now we have the 4th launch coming, which sticks with the original theme choice and visual style. The game background looks like the same one used in the first release. A peaceful neighbourhood with white fences, grass patches and a stone path. It is a shame there are no major visual changes, but it sticks with the well-loved slot series.
The Dog House Multihold has a classic setup of 5 reels by 3 rows; this includes 20 set pay lines. This slot is high variance with a set RTP of 96.06% and a max win capped at 9,000x. You can bet from £0.20 to £100.
The Dog House Multihold Symbols & Pay Table
There are 13 symbols in total; this includes 5 low-paying symbols. These are represented by 10, J, Q, K and A. There are also 5 premium symbols; these are represented by Bones, Collars and 4 different Dog Breeds. In addition to these regular symbols are a Dog House Wild and a Bonus Scatter. The highest paying symbol is the blue-bordered Dog Premium, which pays 25x for 5 across a pay line. Wilds substitute for all symbols except the scatter. Scatters appear on reels 1, 3 and 5. Wilds appear on reels 2, 3 and 4.
The Dog House Multihold Features & Mechanics
Wilds have a random Multiplier of 2x or 3x. Wild Multipliers apply to the win of each pay line that it is part of. If there is more than 1 Wild part of a winning pay line, the Multipliers of all Wild Symbols on that pay line are added to each other.
Landing 3 scatters during a base game spin will trigger the Free Spins feature. Awarding 7 Free Spins, this feature is played on up to 4 3×5 matrices. Starting with the top left matrix unlocked. Collecting 3 scatters during spins will unlock the next matrix until you unlock all 4. During spins, any Wilds that land will stick in place and remain for the duration of these spins. Each time a new matrix is unlocked 1 to 3 additional spins are awarded. Each matrix has its own pay lines, and wins on each matrix are paid separately. When a new matrix is unlocked, it starts with all sticky Wild symbols from the previous matrix already on the screen. This feature can be purchased for 100x your chosen stake.
Conclusion
Overall, I think this slot is perfect for The Dog House lovers and uses a Matrix mechanic with 4 different reel sets within the Bonus Feature. An impressive max win capped at 9,000x and Wilds with a Multiplier of 2x or 3x. Plus a Bonus Buy option to get straight into the action.
