The Dog House in brief
The Dog House is the 2019 original that started one of Pragmatic Play's longest-running series. It is a straightforward 5x3 video slot with 20 fixed paylines, cartoon dogs as the premium symbols and a kennel as the wild. The wilds only appear on reels 2, 3 and 4, and each one carries a multiplier, so a line passing through two or three of them can produce a win far above its normal value.
The Dog House – Royal Hunt in brief
The Dog House – Royal Hunt dresses the classic format in medieval finery. Wilds land on reels 2, 3 and 4 carrying random 2x or 3x multipliers, and when more than one is part of a winning line their values combine, which is how the biggest line wins are built.
