Pug Life review

Theme and Storyline

Pug Life is themed around a household filled with pets.

Players will discover a family of adorable dogs, cats, birds, and mice, and join them for some frisky antics. As the animals frolic in their sunny home, players will fall in love with their goofy personalities.

This slot is well-suited to animals-lovers, and those looking for a wholesome atmosphere.

Graphics, Sounds and Animations

The cheerful soundtrack is filled with rollicking piano notes that set the mood for a playful game of cat-and-mouse. The reels spin with an unobtrusive flicking sound.

On the reels, players will see a range of cute pets including a grumpy Persian cat, an anxious mouse, and a skeptical-looking bird. The most iconic creature is, of course, Pugly the Pug with his silly expression and tongue lolling out of his mouth.

Cartoon letters also appear on the reels in a number of bright colors, as well as a tempting treat. The animation aesthetic draws on classic cartoons, and some players may be reminded of shows such as Tom and Jerry.

Behind the reels, there is a welcoming living room with a fireplace, houseplants, and pet portraits on the wall. Occasionally, the grumpy cat rides by on a robotic vacuum cleaner.

Overall, the soundtrack and animation create a whimsical world of animal fun.

Gameplay

Pug Life is a five reel, four row slot, with 16 win lines.

The maximum win for this slot is 7,500x the player’s total bet.

Wilds, Bonuses and Free Spins

Wild Treat symbols substitute for all paying symbols, and reveal multipliers.

Treat symbols come in three types:

Whenever a Treat symbol is part of a win, its multiplier is applied to the win. If more than one Treat is part of a win, their multipliers will be added together before being applied to the winnings.

During the Treat To’Self feature every Treat symbol will remain sticky on the reels, and show a new multiplier value for each spin.

The Dawg’s Den Free Spins feature begins when players land at least 3 Scatter symbols. The Scatter symbols will show values that will be added together to decide the number of free spins awarded.

Winning combinations and multipliers are saved until the conclusion of the Dawg’s Den Free Spins feature. If players land the sticky Toaster Scatter symbol, it will increase the current multiplier or add extra wins to each of the remaining spins.
