When animal owners go on holiday their pets need somewhere to stay and the luckiest ones are sent to the Hound Hotel, a luxurious venue where dogs can wile away those lazy days, eating good food, smoking pipes and sipping cognac. Hound Hotel is a five reel online slot from Microgaming featuring a cartoonish design and lots of posh looking dogs.
Hound Hotel is a five reel slot with three rows and twenty five fixed paylines; eagle-eyed fans of Microgaming slots will note that it’s very similar in design to Kitty Cabana, right down to the bonus features. Ornate columns hold up the reels which are set in front of the stately home where the dogs spend their leisure time.
Five doggy characters represent the high value symbols while the standard J, Q, K and A are the lower values.
The Hound Hotel logo is wild and can appear stacked in the base game; the bellboy is the scatter symbol which activates the main feature.
Bonus Features
Dashing Wilds
On any non-winning spin there’s a possibility that three dashing wilds will zoom onto the reels and take up a position, hopefully offering the chance of a decent win.
Hound Hotel Bonus
This is triggered by landing three or more of the bellboy scatter symbols anywhere in view; you must now visit the hotel to determine what happens during the free spins (see Game Three above):
- Floor One – determined which wild feature will be active
- Floor Two – determines the multiplier for your wins (may award extra pick)
- Floor Three – determines the number of free spins (may award extra pick)
The wilds you pick on Floor One can be:
- Stacked wilds of 20 positions on reels two and four.
- Expanding wilds to complete wins.
- Frozen wilds on reels one and five.
- Wilds which split into two to create extra winning potential.
- Reel two, three or four is wild on each spin.
Verdict
Hound Hotel is certainly fun to play but it is exactly the same as Kitty Cabana so whether you’re a cat or dog person may determine which slot you prefer. If you can trigger the feature there are some very big wins available.
