January 28, 2016

Pets can feel and express human emotions. Software providers to online casinos have used this concept to create some fantastic online slot games. This article reviews some that have dogs as the central characters.

Microgaming has a dog themed slot game titled K9 (canine) Capers in its portfolio. The reels are set in a park in a city. The high paying symbols include dog house, collar and food belt. The low paying symbols are the playing card icons with paw prints all over them. K9 Capers tells the story of friendship between Butch and Fi-Fi. Butch is the wild symbol that expands to cover all three rows when winning combinations are possible. Fi-Fi is the scatter symbol. It awards scatter payouts and triggers a thematic bonus game on the second screen. You will be taken to a garden where Fi-Fi is hiding and will have to help Butch find her by clicking on the possible hideouts. You can win up to 100 times the total bet in this feature.

Cryptologic takes friendship to romance in its dog themed slot game titled Hot Dog. Hot Dog is the beautiful poodle which is the wild symbol with a 2x multiplier property. Her beau is Chihuahua, which is the scatter symbol in the slot game. The other thematic symbols are dog bed, collar, comb and bone. Hot Dog also has a simple bonus game. You choose from two cards. If the card reveals Hot Dog then the prize money is doubled and you pick again. If the card reveals a bone then the game ends and you collect the prize amount.

Traditionally, cats and dogs are enemies, but Playtech offers an online slot Cute & Fluffy in which they are the best of friends. Cute is the kitten and Fluffy is the puppy. Cute is the scatter symbol and Fluffy is the wild symbol. Fluffy’s bone is the bonus symbol. The other thematic symbols are Fluffy’s food bag, Cute’s basket and ball of wool and a food bowl that both of theme share. The bonus is the highlight, mainly because it is triggered in a unique manner. When the bone symbol appears on a reel it drops a bone on the plate below. When four bones are collected in any plate the bonus round is triggered. It awards four times the total bet and five free spins with a 2 times multiplier. Hence the feature is known as Collective Bonus.
