Spike’s Nite Out Slot

This Microgaming-powered video slot is inspired by a famed series of Coolidge’s paintings named collectively Dogs Playing Poker. Most of the paintings depict dogs seating around the table, smoking, drinking and playing poker. In the reviewed game, symbols portray different scenes that, just like puzzle pieces, seem to create a complete picture: a Great Dane holding five cards and smoking a cigar, a cunning dachshund with an ace of spades, a Poker Champ collar and other theme-related icons. Betting options cater rather to low- and mid-rollers since a total game bet ranges between $0.15 and $30 per spin, with all 15 paylines activated.

The biggest prize is for five wilds (see below). As for other high-paying dog imagery, a Boxer awards $10,000, a Chihuahua pays $6000 and a Great Dane with beer pays $4000, all for five of each kind. Besides, the boxer and chihuahua create mixed combinations, paying off up to $5000.

Bonus features

The Logo is a wild that gives away the first jackpot prize of x15,000, or $30,000 at the maximum stake. The wild substitutes for any symbol including scatters which are represented by a Doggy Time symbol.

Five scatters pay x100 a total bet and three of them appeared adjacently trigger a bonus feature which is a prime attraction in the slot. Once inside, you will find yourself in a room with six dogs sitting at a poker table and playing. You are to start picking from the dogs, each revealing a coin award plus an Extra Pick enabling you to continue selection. If the dog you have picked comes with only a money prize, the mini-game ends and you return to the reels. The highest possible win in the bonus feature is 6750 coins. The slot comes without free spins but the poker bonus round as well as the potent wild substituting for scatters provide rather good chances to scoop some juicy prizes.
