Slot Summary

The dog-or-cat selection in Dogs and Tails changes how the bonus behaves, giving Gamzix's pet characters different mechanical roles. Dogs favor a round that can keep extending and increasing wild values; cats begin with a larger fixed spin allowance. The household-animal theme becomes a choice about the bonus you want to follow.
MechanicsChoose extending dog spins or fixed cat spins

How It Plays

Winning combinations start on the leftmost reel and continue across adjacent reels. Tennis-ball wilds replace ordinary symbols, while the cat scatter has a separate role in triggering the feature selection.

Wilds can carry multipliers during the base game as well as the bonus. This gives the ordinary reel results a multiplier element before either animal's free-spin mode begins.

Bonus & Free Spins

Dogs Free Spins starts with three spins. Landing a wild resets the remaining allowance to three, and the dog increases a random sticky wild's multiplier during the remaining spins. The wild multipliers have no stated individual ceiling.

Cats Free Spins replaces the dog symbols with cats and retains landed wilds in position. Each wild receives a multiplier from 1x to 5x, which stays unchanged for the rest of that feature.

Bankroll survival simulator

How long could a bankroll last on Dogs and Tails? We simulate thousands of sessions from this game's published RTP and volatility — the long-run math, not a prediction of your next spin.

Volatility tier: Medium

How this works

Each simulated spin either misses or returns a win drawn from a log-normal distribution, with the hit rate and spread set by the slot's volatility tier (Medium). The model is calibrated so the average return equals this slot's published RTP (96.50%), with wins capped at its top multiplier (5,000×).

This is a simplified, parametric model of the game's math — not its real paytable. It exists to make the house edge visible over many sessions, so the numbers above are averages across thousands of runs, never a forecast of one.

This is math, not a prediction. Real sessions vary wildly, and no strategy changes a game's built-in house edge. Play for fun, set limits, and never bet more than you can afford to lose.
