About The Dog House
The fixed 5-by-3 layout makes this the more straightforward Dog House edition to read. Ordinary symbols pay along the 20 line patterns shown in the paytable. Multiplier wilds substitute within those combinations on reels 2, 3 and 4.
Free spins give those wilds staying power. A wild that lands early can take part in several later spins, while one arriving near the end has fewer opportunities to contribute. The remaining spin count and the position of the wilds tell you more about the developing round than the number of dog symbols on a single screen.
How to play The Dog House
- Open the paytable to view the 20 line patterns.
- Set a total stake you can read comfortably.
- Follow wins through reels 2, 3 and 4.
- In free spins, note which wild positions carry over.
Features and settings
Wilds clear after an ordinary spin but remain for the free-spin round. This persistence is the original game's central bonus mechanic. Players coming from The Dog House Megaways will find a fixed reel layout here, without the Sticky Wilds versus Raining Wilds selection.
