Cash Hound Game Characteristics

The game’s setting is a typical barnyard that features a gray farmhouse, windmill, and bale-strewn green-and-orange rolling plains. The Cash Hound’s partitioned and golden-framed 5X3 grid has paw-printed off-white reels.

The Cash Hound’s coins: $0.02, $0.04, $0.08, $0.12, $0.16, $0.24, $0.40, $0.60, and $0.80. The total bets (X30 bet factor): $0.60 (minimum bet), $1.20, $2.40, $3.60, $4.80, $7.20, $12.00, $18.00, and $24.00 (maximum bet).

The Cash Hound’s six special symbols: bone-holding, substituting and white-and-golden wild hound; substituting golden wild hound; free spins-activating gold bone (scatter; substituting wild in super free spins); hound’s head; and purple “X3 [Re-spin]” and golden “X2 [Re-spin]” win multipliers.

Eleven ordinaries: off-white rooster beside windvane-fitted doghouse; carrot-eating rabbit; feeding pig; arms-crossing gray cat; Guernsey cow with arms akimbo; purple A; orange K; golden Q; blue J; green 9; and red 10.

Cash Hound has these regular odds: 9/10/J pay X0.06͞, X0.16͞, and X1; K/Q pay X0.1, X0.20, and X1.3͞; hounds pay X0.06͞, X0.16͞, X0.3͞; gold bones pay X3, X10, and X50; A pay X0.06͞, X0.16͞, X0.23͞, and X1.6͞; and pigs/rabbits/roosters pay X0.10, X0.16͞, X0.26͞, and X2.

Super free games’ odds: 9/10/J pay X0.03͞, X0.06͞, and X0.16͞; K/Q pay X0.06͞, X0.1, and X0.26͞; A/cows pay X0.06͞, X0.13͞, and X0.3͞; cats pay X0.10, X0.16͞, and X0.36͞; pigs/rabbits X0.13͞, X0.20, and X0.4; and roosters/gold bones pay X0.16͞, X0.26͞, and X0.50.

3+ gold bones offer ten Super free spins (and 2+ re-landing gold bones offer +5 free spins), potentially with substituting “wild” gold bones. A Super free spin’s first reel may draw a hound’s head, where: appearing from the left, the bipedal hound walks across the grid while hitting each reel that then transforms into stacked heads, totaling a 15-of-a-kind of heads that yet again transform into a randomized 15-of-a-kind of any ordinary symbol; thereafter, it reveals a red doghouse-embedded wins-doubling or wins-tripling symbols.

3+ gold bones offer six Crazy free spins: potentially with wins-doubling or wins-tripling doghouses, and a single free re-spin; and a must-have head-stacking reel that transforms into stacked ordinaries.

A regular spin’s first two reels may draw the hounds, thus activating the jackpot spins whose prizes (for the exclusive, rightward stacked hounds) are: a $20.00 mini jackpot (hound-stacking first two orange reels); $40.00 minor jackpot (hound-stacking first three red reels); $80.00 maxi jackpot (hound-stacking first to fourth purple reels); $1000.00 major jackpot (hound-filled green grid); or $10000.00 grand jackpot (golden middle reel amid a hound-filled blue grid).

Cash Hound has good software HTML5 technology, mobile/desktop compatibility; history; and 10/25/50/75/100 auto games. Sounds: ambient mariachi music; and barking, ringing, retro, cartoonish, creaking, jingling, clinking, and munching effects. The animated 3D graphics: spinning gold bones, flashing, gushing, zoom in, bone-throwing/biting hound, and reel-pawing hound.
