Hot Dog Heist Bonus Features

There are 40 fixed pay lines. Wins are awarded for left-to-right prize combinations begun from the leftmost reel.

Wild

It's a paying special symbol that substitutes any other picture except the Scatter.

Scatter

Three Scatters on the reels trigger bonus game activation. This special symbol doesn't hit the play grid during Free Spins (FS).

Free Spins (FS)

Before Free Spins start, a bonus wheel chooses the type of the bonus game:

• The ‘Pack’ mode offers 3 Free Spins featuring 4x4-sized pics on 2-5 reels. 

• The 'Golden Retriever' mode offers 3 Free Spins featuring one or two reels fully covered by Wilds.

• The 'Rough Collie' mode offers one FS with stacked Rough Collie images across 2-4 reels. An extra Re-Spin is awarded if these form the 3x3 or 3x4-sized block. This block will be stuck to the play grid while a Re-Spin.

• The 'Labrador' mode offers a single FS with a randomly picked multiplier, varying from x5 to x30. The latter multiplies the whole winning amount gained through the bonus game.

• The 'Border Collie' offers one FS with 4 Border Collie symbols that are Wilds sticky to the play grid. Each additional Border Collie picture landed throughout this bonus game awards an extra Re-Spin.

• The 'Bulldog' mode offers one FS with a couple of 2x2-sized Bulldog symbols. Re-Spins are ongoing until a prize combination is composed if there are no wins during a Free Spin.

• The ‘Who's a Good Doggy?' mode is a ‘Pick a bonus' FS mini-game offering a 20-tile play grid behind which hide instant cash prizes (x0.25 - x25), mentioned above bonus games, and stop symbols, which will immediately finish this bonus mode if selected. Picking the 1st or 2nd mode starts the corresponding bonus feature, simultaneously terminating the ‘Pick a bonus' FS mini-game. Yet, any other bonus mode returns a player to keep picking prizes after it ends.

Our Experience Playing Hot Dog Heist

We experienced a 300-spin gaming session to explore how engaging and beneficial this slot is, using a €1 stake per spin and a €200 initial deposit.

The 1st hundred spins triggered the bonus FS games 4 times, which brought us €146.5. Also, we had 45 wins, ranging from €0.1 to €7.3. So, after the first 100 spins were out, we eventually had €285.15.

The 2nd hundred spins allowed you to take advantage of another four bonus FS mini-games, bringing €43.95. The number of ordinary wins was 52. This time, their size varied from €0.1 to €7.2. Upon the 200th spin ending, the game balance was €286.9.

The 3rd hundred spins earned €105.75 due to 4 bonus games triggered within the final part of our gaming session. The number of base game cash prizes totaled 35 (€0.1 - €4.35). When we finally ended the slot test drive, our balance was €312.45. Therefore, we earn €112.45 over our initial deposit.

Here are all the statistics:

As you can see, despite the base game offering frequent prizes, it doesn't look profitable as it has no beneficial features. As a result, the biggest prize during the main mode totaled just €7.3, and the vast majority of ordinary wins were lower than the bet. On the contrary, Free Spins deliver as many as seven separate bonus modes, which makes them much more engaging and entertaining, let alone their profitability. Another essential pro is frequent Free Spins activations.

Hot Dog Heist Verdict

In conclusion, it’s a spectacularly designed masterpiece slot machine that impresses with the variousness of available bonus features and their profitability. One more plus is frequent enough bonus game triggers. On the other hand, the main game seems quite boring and isn’t profitable at all. Also, an RTP figure can be ranged broadly, so beware. The mediocre maximum win and the absence of ‘Buy Bonus’ options are the final drawbacks of this game we wanted to highlight.
