This dog-themed slot from Microgaming is abundant with wild symbol features. Just make it to a free spin round and get ready for a feature-packed action with seven types of wilds. Animal symbols used in the slot are highly detailed and depict the dogs as if they were human, for example a Scottish terrier looks like a travelling salesman smoking a pipe and a big-eyed pug resembles a tired blue-collar smoking a cigar after a night shift. In Hound Hotel, the number of lines is fixed at 25. Before any spin in a base game, you can select a coin value ($0.01 to $0.10) and the number of coins per line (1 to 15), so the minimum and maximum stakes are $0.25 and $37.50 per spin. The top award of $3750 is paid out by 5 scatters.

Bonus features

The game has a plethora of wild features. In a base game, you can benefit from a regular wild that substitutes for other symbols and comes stacked. Besides, 3 to 5 of them pay out up to $750.

Another brilliant feature is Dashing Wilds which occurs randomly on any non-winning round in a base gameplay. When the feature activates, three wilds appear over the reels while they are spinning. When the reels come to a stop, you will have a great chance to form a combo thanks to the three Dashing Wilds.

Other wild variants are found in the impressive Hound Hotel bonus triggered by three or more scatters. In the bonus round, you will be taken inside a hotel having three floors with five doors on each. You are to choose one door on each floor to determine your special wild feature, the number of free spins and the multiplier. You can win one of the following:

• Super Stacked Wilds. Reels 2 and 4 are filled with a very long array of stacked wilds
• Expanding Wilds. Whenever a regular wild appears, it expands vertically to cover the entire reel
• Wild Reels. The first and the fifth reels become fully wild until the end of free spins
• Split Wilds. Any regular wild icon will split horizontally into two, thus creating more winning combinations
• Super Wild Reels. There is the chance to get up to three reels entirely wild for the duration of free spins.
