The Dog House Megaways 1000 Slot Game Review  

The Dog House pack is back, and apparently a four digit multiplier was the next logical step. The Dog House Megaways 1000 from Pragmatic Play uses a six reel Megaways layout with up to 117,649 ways to form potential wins. We get familiar canine characters, multiplier Wilds reaching x1000, two standard free spins choices and two stronger Super Bonus versions. Most of the regular spinning stays fairly simple, while the bonus rounds give the doghouse much more work to do. 

Theme & Graphic 

The dogs have claimed the garden again, and we suspect the humans lost that argument some time ago. We get a sunny house, green lawn and oversized doghouse behind the reels, while the familiar Rottweiler, Maltese, pug and dachshund return as the premium symbols. Bones, collars and bright card ranks fill the rest of the grid. Our canine cast still favours cartoon expressions over realism, with enough enormous eyes and cheerful grins to make obedience training seem rather unlikely. 

The bright suburban look keeps The Dog House Megaways 1000 easy to recognise among online slots. We see most of the visual changes once free spins begin, when Wild doghouses start occupying larger reel areas and multipliers become much more prominent on screen. 

Payout Table 

We find the card symbols at the lower end of the paytable, followed by the bone and collar before the four dogs take over the stronger positions. The Rottweiler produces the highest regular potential payout among the standard symbols. 

Symbol Payout for 3, 4, 5 of a kind
10 0.10, 0.20, 0.40
J 0.10, 0.20, 0.40
Q 0.20, 0.40, 0.60
K 0.20, 0.40, 0.60
A 0.20, 0.40, 0.60
Bone 0.30, 0.80, 1.00
Collar 0.30, 0.80, 1.00
Dachshund 0.40, 1.00, 1.50
Pug 0.70, 1.50, 2.00
Maltese 1.00, 2.00, 3.00
Rottweiler 1.50, 4.00, 6.00
  • We can see Wild doghouses on reels two, three, four and five during the relevant free spins rounds. Wilds substitute for regular paying symbols but not Bonus, Super Bonus or Sticky Wild symbols. 
  • Every Wild can carry a random x1, x2, x3, x5, x10, x25, x100 or x1000 multiplier. When several multiplier Wilds contribute to the same potential combination, their multiplier values multiply together. 
  • Bonus paw symbols can appear on every reel. Three, four, five or six Bonus symbols activate free spins and award 7, 12, 15 or 20 spins respectively. 
  • Super Bonus paw symbols also appear across all reels and can activate the stronger Super Bonus versions of the free spins feature. 

Bonus Features 

Sticky Wilds Free Spins 

After triggering regular free spins, we can choose Sticky Wilds Free Spins as one of two routes. Any Sticky Wild that lands on reels two through five remains in place until the round ends and carries a random multiplier from x1 up to x1000. Reel sizes also adjust so each affected reel remains large enough to accommodate the Sticky Wilds already occupying the column. 

Random Wilds Free Spins 

The second regular choice removes the sticky behaviour and concentrates on volume instead. On every free spin, we can receive as many as six Wilds in random positions across the eligible reels. Each Wild can vary in size and carry one of the available multipliers. Neither of the two standard free spins rounds can be retriggered. 

Super Bonus Free Spins 

A mixture of Bonus and Super Bonus symbols can activate Super Bonus Free Spins. During this version, we can see a random number of regular Wilds or Sticky Wilds added across reels two through five on every spin. We therefore get elements from both standard bonus choices working within one feature. 

All Super Bonus Free Spins 

In the situation where the trigger is made up solely of Super Bonus icons, then we move on to the more powerful All Super Bonus Free Spins mode. Once again, Random Wilds and Sticky Wilds are possible on reels two to five, but any standard Wilds become Sticky Wilds. It is now much easier for us to create multiplier icons. 

Multiplier Wilds 

x1000 is what makes the news, although the whole range starts from x1. We can get x1, x2, x3, x5, x10, x25, x100, or x1000 multipliers on the Wilds in the corresponding features. If several multiplier Wilds form a combination that could bring us a win, then we multiply the multipliers.

Spin Mechanics 

We are using a grid of six Megaways reels with different heights of each reel. The maximum number of symbols that each reel can show is seven, thus making possible 117,649 winning combinations. 

The winning symbols must fall on adjacent reels from left to right beginning from the first reel. We do not use the traditional fixed paylines; therefore, the number of ways differs depending on the number of symbols appearing on each reel. 

Compared with some Megaways releases found across online casinos, we don't have tumbles or a long list of base game modifiers to track here. The variable grid handles the regular mechanics, while most of the extra complexity arrives once Bonus or Super Bonus symbols send us into one of the free spins rounds. 

Similar Slots 

For three useful comparisons, we'd stay with dog themes, Pragmatic Play animal slots and Megaways mechanics. 

  • Golden Retriever: We get another dog centred release with multiplier Wilds and free spins, although Reel Kingdom uses a fixed 5x3 grid rather than Megaways. 
  • Finger Lick'n Free Spins: We swap dogs for chickens, but persistent Wild behaviour during free spins gives us another animal themed bonus where Wild placement matters throughout the round. 
  • Chilli Heat Megaways: We leave the kennel behind, though Pragmatic Play uses another changing Megaways grid with as many as 117,649 ways and most of the mechanical detail reserved for a separate feature. 

Heart Bingo’s Opinion 

We think The Dog House Megaways 1000 understands exactly which part of the older formula people remember. The multiplier Wilds remain front and centre, only now their values can climb far higher and the Super Bonus rounds give us more ways to keep them around. 

Our favourite addition is the distinction between regular and Super Bonus free spins. Choosing Sticky Wilds or Random Wilds keeps the original decision easy to understand, while the stronger versions combine both ideas without turning the rules into a small legal document. The x1000 multiplier naturally attracts attention, although most rounds will depend on far less dramatic values. 

We wouldn't have minded a little more going on during regular spins. Still, the bonus structure has enough variation, and the dogs remain considerably more organised than most real households containing four of them.
