5 Doggy Millionaires Dream Drop: Slot Overview

Going by a Wikipedia rundown of the richest animals, the creature sitting at the very top is a cat called Tardar Sauce, though most people know her as ‘Grumpy Cat’. Yes, that Grumpy Cat from all the memes. Those viral posts didn’t just entertain the internet; they reportedly helped generate an estimated $99 million for Grumpy Cat (based on a 2018 estimate). Strange, isn’t it? It’s hard to fathom how fortunes get made. For anyone hoping to land a fortune themselves (or at least take a shot at it), there’s 4ThePlayer’s pet-focused jackpot slot 5 Doggy Millionaires Dream Drop.

These dogs have seriously upgraded their lifestyle. In the earlier 5 Doggy Dollars slot, the pups were busy sniffing butts and messing up the town lawn; here, they’re living it up in a massive mansion. The kind of place where your voice echoes when you shout to someone on the far side of the living room. The dining table is so ridiculously long that guests would need to text each other to ask how the meal is or request the salt. In short, the dogs (or their humans) have struck it rich, which is presumably the push to keep chasing the Dream Drop action.

The doggos bring back the same setup: a 5-reel machine offering 1,024 ways to win. Stakes begin at 20 c a spin and go up to $/€50, with the note that higher bets increase the chance of triggering a jackpot win. The maximum RTP is 94% (96% on the non-DD), and this is the case whether you’re spinning normally or purchasing either feature. 5 Doggy Millionaires Dream Drop has volatility is in the low range.

Card ranks from paw-printed 10 through to A make up the low-paying symbols in 5 Doggy Millionaires Dream Drop, returning 1 to 1.5 times the stake. The higher pays are 5 classy dog symbols, which deliver 2 to 4 times the bet for a 5 OAK win. Wilds substitute for any paying symbol, meaning they can help form winning combos.

5 Doggy Millionaires Dream Drop: Slot Features

Alongside the jackpot prizes, 5 Doggy Millionaires Dream Drop also comes with Money Ways, a Respin Bonus, a Frisbee feature, plus feature buys.

Money Ways & Collect Scatter

Cash prizes may appear on any wild symbol or dog symbol. When a cash prize lands on winning symbols, its value is paid, and depending on the reel it can reach 2.2 to 200 times the stake. The Collect scatter gathers up all cash prizes currently visible and awards the combined total. Cash prizes on winning symbols pay out both as part of the standard win and again via the Collect scatter. This symbol can land on all reels.

Respin Bonus

Landing 3 or more respins scatters on the leftmost, middle, and rightmost reels triggers the Respin Bonus. During the feature, any symbols showing a cash prize will lock in place. Ways wins are paid after every respin. Each time a new cash prize lands on the grid, the respin counter resets to 3. Collect scatters may land anywhere in this feature; when one appears, it clones and collects all cash prizes on screen and shows the total collected value.

Frisbee Feature

The Frisbee feature can show up on any spin. In the base game, when it triggers it shuffles the symbols to create a win or improve an existing one, guaranteeing at least 1 cash prize is awarded. In the Respin Bonus, once a reel is full of locked symbols, a Frisbee flies up that reel, collecting every cash prize on it. The amount collected is then multiplied by x2 and displayed above the reel, after which the reel is cleared so new symbols can land.

Dream Drop Jackpots

A Fortune Spin can randomly trigger when you press the spin button, and it plays before the regular spin resolves. The Fortune Spin uses the same-sized grid, but only blank symbols and Dream Drop symbols can land. If at least 3 Dream Drop symbols appear, players spin the Fortune Wheel; if not, play returns to the normal spin. Landing 4 Dream Drop symbols on the Fortune Spin removes Rapid prizes from the Wheel. Landing 5 Dream Drop symbols removes Midi prizes from the Wheel. The Fortune Wheel then awards 1 of 5 jackpots. The jackpots and their starting values are the €1 Rapid, €5 Midi, €100 Maxi, €25,000 Major, or the €500,000 Mega.

Feature Buy

In the feature buy section, players can purchase the Respin Bonus for 75 times their stake or buy a collect spin for 30x the bet. A collect spin is a one-off spin that is guaranteed to land cash prizes along with a Collect symbol.

Boosting Fortunes (Non-Dream Drop Version)

In 5 Doggy Millionaires, Dream Drop is replaced by Boosting Fortunes. This consists of 4 prize values shown above the reels – Big, Super, Mega, and Ultra. Hitting Coin symbols boosts the matching prize. Big ranges from 10x to 100x, Super ranges from 25x to 250x, Mega ranges from 200x to 1,000x, and Ultra ranges from 10,000x to 15,000x.

A Fortune Spin can randomly trigger when the spin button is pressed. If 3 Fortune symbols land, players spin the Fortune Wheel, which awards one of the Fortune prizes. Landing 4 or 5 Fortune symbols removes smaller prizes from the Fortune Wheel. If the Fortune Spin doesn’t succeed, players are sent back to the standard spin.

5 Doggy Millionaires Dream Drop: Slot Verdict

If you’re feeling the urge to ‘Raise the woof again in style with the ultimate paw-sh bow wow bonanza!’ then 5 Doggy Millionaires Dream Drop delivers exactly that vibe. Sure, studios have to sell the sizzle, but that line from the 5 Doggy Millionaires Dream Drop game sheet is either oddly brilliant or just a touch cringey. Either way, it worked. And adding the words ‘Dream Drop’ to any slot is also a reliable attention-grabber, especially when it’s tied to a progressive jackpot whose top prize can climb into the millions.

Take Dream Drop out of 5 Doggy Millionaires Dream Drop, however, and what remains feels weaker than the original. Pick-A-Win is gone, Big Prize Bones are gone too, and the overall package loses some punch. That’s echoed in the reduced max win of 3,411.1x the bet (outside of Dream Drop) and a generally less thrilling set of features. The non-DD version is a different story, featuring a top payout of 15,038.8x.

Still, bone collecting isn’t really the core mission in 5 Doggy Millionaires Dream Drop. The main goal is barking your way into the Dream Drop round for a shot at potentially huge sums of cash. So far, Relax Gaming and partners have offered multiple ways to experience the Dream Drop concept, giving players lots of different themes to test their luck on. This time, 4ThePLayer has gone with an adorable canine setting, building on the popularity of 5 Doggy Dollars. It may not feel quite as rewarding as the previous game if you ignore the Dream Drop element, but that’s a bit like saying a Lamborghini is just seats and four wheels once you remove the engine.
